Why Hair Loss ?

Here is simple test for you to determine if you are losing hair for real: Pull on several strands of your hair. Do they come out easily at the root ? If So, then you are indeed suffering from hair loss and should take up the solutions to prevent this from becoming even more serious.

If you ask me Why and What reason Caused Hair Loss ? I can tell you that , one of the top reason for hair loss will due to Harsh hair treatment.

health-tipsExcessive hair colouring, blow-drying you hair at every single opportunity you have, perming, straightening, harsh brushing- it is no wonder your hair is falling out like there's no tomorrow!

Treating you hair with such careless will result in excessive hair loss. Also, subjecting your hair to harsh chemicals often found in the perming, colouring and straightening process will prove to be harmful for your hair. When you handle your hair without caution, it is bound to be more susceptible to breakage and damages. Using the wrong products on your hair will cause its roots to weaken, allowing for more hair loss than normal.

At the same time, frequent tying of ponytails, braids and other tight hair dos will restrict the proper blood circulation to your hair roots. This will also cause your hair to be damaged; as it is no longer able to protect itself and will simply just lay limp and eventually fall off. The cardinal rule to remember when it comes to handling your hair ? Be gentle ! Don't tug, pull and tease your hair unnecessary; the last thing you want is hair breakage. Use the right shampoo. Don't know which one to get for your hair type ? Speak to your hair stylist to find out what will work for you. When possible, let your hair free and refrain from tying it up into a ponytail. If you don't like that idea, then perhaps you should keep your hair at a manageable length, one that doesn't require much maintenance.

More reason that lead to hair loss include heredity, a change in your hormones, especially when you are going through pregnancy, a medical condition and more. However, the only thing you need to remember is this ; protect your hair and keep it healthy to avoid losing hair and thus winning the battle over baldness! Good luck...
