Summary:
Myth 1: Shaving or trimming your hair
Shaving does not affect hair thickness, color, and rate of growth. This myth was debunked in the 1970s.

Myth 2: Onion juice will make your hair grow faster
Did you first hear about this from your grandmother? Well, don't be in a hurry to rule this out.

Myth 3: Stress causes graying
Stress is an unavoidable part of everybody's lives and it leaves a lasting effect on your face.

Myth 4: Plucking one gray hair will grow many more in its place
It’s about time we bust this old tale. We all start aging at some point in our lives. And going gray is a part and parcel of aging.

Myth 5: White flaky scalp means dandruff.
Do you always think of those flakes on your black t-shirt to be dandruff? Well, it turns out it could be a lot worse.

Myth 6: Brushing hair 100 times a day before bed makes it healthy.
One hundred strokes a day? That's a lot of work! Thankfully this myth has been denounced by a few hair experts.

Myth 7: Blow drying is more damaging than air drying
This one is going to be a shocker. According to a study, using a hair dryer at a distance of 15 centimeters with continuous motion caused less damage than drying hair naturally.

Myth 8: Keeping shampoos in the rotation will help hair grow longer
This one can definitely be deemed as fiction. Do you think your hair could get used to a particular shampoo or conditioner? You don't need to be a product junkie and start jumping from one shower product to the other.
