How to prevent hair loss
Hair loss is a natural process, but excessive hair loss can indicate health problems or incorrect hair care habits. To prevent hair loss:
Identify the Causes
Hair loss can have various causes, including stress, hormonal fluctuations, poor diet, illness, or genetic factors. Consult a dermatologist or trichologist to determine the exact issue.
Avoid Excessive Heat and Chemical Treatments
Reduce heat exposure from hair styling tools.
Avoid harsh hair colouring procedures or perms that can weaken hair follicles.
Stress Reduction
Chronic stress can lead to hair loss (telogen effluvium). Practice meditation, yoga, or other relaxation methods to lower stress levels.
Choosing Hair Care Products
Use shampoos formulated for hair loss that contain active ingredients such as caffeine, keratin, or biotin.
Avoid products with alcohol that can dry out the scalp.
Medical Treatments and Procedures
If natural remedies and lifestyle changes do not help, consider medical options such as:
- Minoxidil: A product that stimulates hair growth and slows down hair loss.
- PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy: Injections that promote follicle regeneration.
- Hair transplantation: An advanced solution for severe hair loss.
