You wake up one morning and look at yourself in the mirror and are surprised to see more of your forehead than before. Or maybe you came across old photos of you where you had healthy hair and wondered what happened…
Well, hair loss is not the end of the world even though it may seem that way at first glance.
Age-agnostic
Hair loss is age and gender agnostic. It is a fact that hair loss can happen to almost anyone due to factors such as:
- Hereditary causes.
- The condition of the water you use for bathing.
- Diet.
- Lifestyle.
- Treatment.
- Medical conditions or illnesses too.
Of course it is important to investigate the causes of hair loss and eliminate more serious ones such as certain diseases. But in most cases, there’s a lot you can do to improve the situation you’re in.
Get a professional consultation
It is important to get a professional consultation from a clinic or hair care specialist. This is especially important if you think your hair loss is severe. It is normal for humans to lose around 30-40 hairs every day. But if you think it’s more than this for you, start with a visit to the clinic.
Make changes to your diet
In most cases, it is the wrong diet that causes hair loss. Take this simple fact – your hair is made of protein and even a single strand can reveal a lot of details about your diet. When you get enough protein in your diet, it allows the hair to be in the growth phase for a longer time instead of falling into the resting phase where the hair falls out. So make sure your diet is balanced and nutritious and incorporates:
- essential minerals.
- Water.
- Healthy fats and carbohydrates.
- Vitamins and
- Protein – perhaps the most important ‘ingredient’ of all.
Maintenance
There are many treatments that are quite effective for hair loss. Some of these include topical creams and some of them may involve hair weaves. Before you start any treatment, be sure to gather as much information as possible about the method and what your expectations should be. Oral medications, specialty and prescription shampoos or OTC pills and potions – all have a specific methodology of use and you should be careful to read the labels before you start using them.
If you don’t like the treatment then you can try it hair fiber. It’s quite popular nowadays. After using it, you will look like you have full hair. No need for weaving, painful transplants, etc.
Choose your product
One of the biggest causes of hair loss are the products you use to style and style your hair. It’s great to see stunning looking models with glistening locks sporting the latest gel or mousse. But be aware that all products have chemicals and other ingredients that can make hair loss worse. Even excessive use of a hair dryer can cause hair to become brittle and fall out more than necessary.
There’s no doubt that hair loss happens to everyone but with a little treatment, it doesn’t need to be the end of the world.
