Much higher amounts of black eumelanin will result in black hair and a low attentiveness of black eumelanin in the hair will make it gray.
  • All humans have pheomelanin in their hair. Pheomelanin is more chemically secure than black eumelanin, but less chemically secure than brown eumelanin, it breaks down more slowly when oxidized.
