      Nah. Grey hair happens because the cells in your scalp stop making the protein in the right color, and it grows out of your head that way regardless of how much you dye your hair. That said, if you’re using a lot of bleach in your hair to lighten it or for bright colors, you can damage the hair that’s already grown, so be careful with too much dying anyways!
