================== ARTICLE START ==================

Noticed more fallen hair collecting on the drain stopper in

your shower room?

Or do you suspect that more hair has been left in your brush

than is normally the case?

Been sweeping up more strands of hair all over your house?

Getting worried? Although hair is not essential for survival,

the lack of hair can affect one’s self confidence in today’s

environment. And no wonder! We are bombarded with a constant

stream of advertisements sponsored by beauty salons, hair care

products and hair loss treatments on looking good through a

crop of beautiful hair. So if we start to lose hair, we can

become really self conscious about our looks.

Our hair become stressed with over exposure to the sun,

frequent hair blow drying and repeated perming, rebonding and

hair colour treatments. The hair becomes dry and brittle and

break off very easily. Tying hair too tightly can also cause

hair breakage. Illnesses like low thyroid hormones are

additional factors resulting in hair loss.

Hair loss is also known as alopecia. About 100 strands of hair

out of a normal scalp of 100,000 hairs are lost daily. Any hair

loss of more than 100 strands of hair per day warrants a case

for concern.

The lifespan of a single hair strand is about 5 years. Genetic

baldness is caused when the body fails to replace hair that has

fallen off. Familial history may determine if hair loss is going

to occur and women’s hair does thin with age as well. Temporary

hair loss in post-pregnancy cases and lifestyle changes are

additional explanations for hair loss.

A hair loss remedy can be through taking oral pills or through

hair loss products applied directly to the hair. Other hair

loss solutions include vitamin supplements, herbal cures, scalp

treatments and hair transplants. A good understanding of what

causes the hair loss in the first place can help us decide what

best solution to take.

In the meantime, if you have a family history of balding genes,

take preventive hair loss measures. Simple procedures like using

a mild shampoo and conditioner, and gentle brushing or combing

would really help for good hair structure and a healthier crop!
