Hair loss is a problem that worries many people, especially when it starts to become more noticeable. Although it is normal to lose between 50 and 100 hairs a day, there are mistakes and factors that can accelerate this process and put hair health at risk. Did you know that many of them are avoidable? Below, we explore the Main causes and how you can protect your hair.
-
Stress and its effects on hair
Stress not only affects your emotional well-being, but also your hair health. Although it is not a direct cause of hair loss, it can trigger problems such as telogen effluvium, a temporary loss that usually resolves when the stressor disappears. Learning to manage stress through techniques such as meditation or exercise can make a big difference.
-
Using inappropriate products
Choosing very aggressive or low-quality products can weaken hair. Shampoos, dyes or harsh chemical treatments damage the hair shaft, leaving it fragile and prone to breakage. In our online store you can find products suitable for your hair routine.
Opting for gentle products specific to your hair type is key to maintaining its strength and vitality.
-
Nutritional deficiencies
A balanced diet is essential for healthy hair. Lack of iron, protein and vitamins can weaken the hair fiber, causing it to lose shine and strength. Foods such as broccoli, nuts, fish and eggs are excellent allies to nourish your hair from within.
-
Hairstyles that cause traction
Too tight ponytails, tight braids or frequent use of extensions generate tension at the hair root, promoting hair loss. Opt for more relaxed hairstyles that do not exert constant pressure on the scalp.
-
Hormonal changes
Stages such as pregnancy, postpartum or menopause can alter the hormonal balance and cause more significant hair loss. In many cases, hair will recover over time, but if the problem persists, it is important to seek a specialized diagnosis.
-
Medications and medical treatments
Some medications, such as those used in chemotherapy or certain hormonal treatments, can cause temporary hair loss. If you are going through a medical process that affects your hair, consult a specialist for guidance and proper care.
Conclusion
Hair loss can be a sign that something is not working well in your body. or in your hair care routines. Identifying and correcting errors such as stress, poor diet or the use of inappropriate products is the first step to protect and strengthen your hair.
