Episode notes
Why do people start losing the pigment in their hair as they grow older? Well, it might be one of those things that we don’t entirely understand, though there are some new studies that offer some ideas. But that didn’t stop people throughout history from trying to find ways to keep their hair from turning grey. Of course, Justin doesn’t need any of these methods because he has surprisingly little grey hair for someone his age. As he points out. Repeatedly.
