Blavity: Scientific Research About Gray Hair Treatment: July 2026
The article, titled “What Science Actually Says About Gray Hair Treatment” (Blavity.com), reports that while there’s still no approved treatment to permanently reverse gray hair, scientists are making progress. The research traces back to an accidental discovery: dermatologists in Spain found that a cancer immunotherapy drug darkened the gray hair of 14 lung cancer patients, which sparked new interest in how graying works. These drugs, called checkpoint inhibitors, may reactivate the pigment cells that color hair, but researchers stress they’re powerful cancer medications with serious side effects and should never be used cosmetically.
Other emerging research includes a University of Tokyo study suggesting DNA damage causes pigment stem cells to vanish (in mice) and a Nagoya University study where the antioxidant luteolin slowed graying, again in mice. On the practical side, people of European descent tend to gray earliest (mid-30s), followed by Asian people (late 30s) and Black people (mid-40s), and gray hair is generally weaker, drier, and more fragile because the follicle stops producing melanin and the scalp produces less oil. The realistic options today remain covering grays with dye and addressing reversible causes like low B12, iron, or vitamin D, thyroid issues, smoking, and stress.
Dr. Michele S. Green, a board-certified cosmetic dermatologist in New York City, was featured in the article both as its medical reviewer and as a directly quoted expert. On reversibility, she explains that advanced aging of the hair follicle from stress, smoking, or imbalances can cut pigment production short, and that “in most cases when the stressor is removed, hair pigment can return.” On caring for gray or textured hair, she notes the routine may not change dramatically but may need to happen more often — because the scalp makes less oil and gray strands are more porous, moisture is key to preventing breakage, and she recommends lighter oils that hydrate without weighing hair down.

Dr. Green Talks About Why Retinoids Work Well for Skin Longevity on Super Age: June 2026
The result? Improved skin texture and tone, a softened appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and preserved skin quality over time, says Michele Green, MD, a board-certified cosmetic dermatologist in New York City. Dr. Green, a board-certified cosmetic dermatologist based in New York City, is one of the expert voices featured in Super Age’s ultimate guide to retinoids for skin longevity.
The piece covers the full spectrum of retinoid options — from OTC retinol to prescription tretinoin and tazarotene — and draws on Dr. Green’s clinical expertise to help readers understand which ingredients are right for their specific skin concerns. Dr. Green’s insights zero in on the meaningful distinctions between retinoid types: retinaldehyde is faster-acting and more potent than retinol, making it a strong pick for acne-prone skin or more visible results, while tretinoin works directly as retinoic acid to accelerate cell turnover, stimulate collagen, and address fine lines, laxity, and hyperpigmentation. She also reinforces a point she makes with every patient — retinoids and daily SPF go hand in hand, no exceptions.
Dr. Green Talks About Eye Creams for Dark Circles: June 2026
Dark circles are a common concern caused by genetics, aging, stress, poor sleep, and volume loss under the eyes. Eye creams can effectively address many of these causes, with key ingredients like retinol (boosts collagen and cell turnover), vitamin C (brightens and protects), hyaluronic acid (hydrates and plumps), and caffeine (reduces puffiness by constricting blood vessels). However, they have limits — dark circles from volume loss are better treated with hyaluronic acid fillers.
Dr. Green was featured in Bottom Line where she talked about top product picks – which include Innisfree’s caffeine-based serum for puffiness, ROC’s retinol cream for fine lines, Avene’s gentle formula for sensitive skin, DRMTLGY for a simple AM/PM routine, and Burt’s Bees for a natural option. For best results, apply eye cream gently with a small amount, wear SPF 50 daily, and consult a dermatologist if considering procedures like fillers, chemical peels, or microneedling.

Should You Sleep on Wet Hair? Here’s What the Experts Say – The Pioneer Woman: Nov 2024
While most dermatologists will recommend showering at night vs in the morning since its better for your skin, helps remove dirt and sweat from the day and allows you to get into a bed thats cleaner too, where you won’t have to sleep in previous day’s odors. But, what about washing your hair? A lot of people prefer to wash their hair at night but need to do so a bit ahead of bedtime. That’s what the Pioneer Woman asks in “Should You Sleep on Wet Hair? Here’s What the Experts Say” and the short answer? No, you shouldn’t. “It is always better to dry your hair prior to going to bed to protect it and keep it healthy,” says Dr. Michele Green.
“Wet hair strands, in their fragile state, are significantly more prone to damage than dry hair strands,” Green explains. She also talks about how bacteria and yeast production can exacerbate scalp conditions such as seborrheic dermatitis, dandruff, psoriasis, and folliculitis. However she also mentions potential solutions such as air drying and silk bonnets or even silk pillowcases, which can reduce friction on the hair. Overall though, try not to sleep on wet hair – citing that prior to bedtime, “the hair should be dried with a microfiber towel or cotton t-shirt, which minimally damages the fragile hair strands.”

Kyoord – The Benefits of Olive Oil for Skin: Anti-Aging, Hydration, Antioxidant Protection: July 2024
Olive Oil is good for the skin in various ways, thanks to its mix of “fatty acids, such as oleic acid, and vitamins A, D, K, and E, which work to enhance and restore the skin’s natural moisture barrier” according to Dr. Green in a blog at Kyoord’s “The Benefits of Olive Oil for Skin: Anti-Aging, Hydration, Antioxidant Protection” where she talks about its use for skin prone to eczema, psoriasis, and acne.
She talks about how olive oil minimizes water loss, and keeps skin soft, and supple. However, like anything else new for your skin, before you start incorporating olive oil into your skincare routine, make sure to conduct a patch test. Dr. Green says “If you are thinking about incorporating olive oil into your skincare regimen, it is important to do a test spot on the skin to ensure no irritation occurs.” Apply a small amount to a discreet area and give it 24 hours to check for any reactions or irritations.
Also make sure not to overuse it as this can result in clogged pores – as this “may be irritating for individuals with sensitive skin or dermatitis or may lead to clogged pores and acne breakouts for individuals with oily skin.”
