Reasons Why Hair Follicles Get Weak & Fall Off

Hair breakage and fall has many different causes. When the hair follicles get weak, your hair can get dry and ultimately separate, resulting in damage. This causes breakage, along with other symptoms, such as dryness and frizz.

Here are some of the most common reasons for hair breakage:

Diet

When it comes to hair and skin health, your diet plays a big role. There are certain nutrients that help your hair grow and save them from breakage and damage. Hence, make sure you’re getting enough iron, zinc, and folic acid in your daily diet. Sufficient protein and antioxidants (found in plant foods) can also keep your hair damage-free.

Heat damage

To get the best results from your flat iron, hairdryer, or curling iron, you need high heat. However, when you use these tools too much, you risk damaging the cuticle due to the extreme temperatures.

One way to prevent overall heat damage is to give your strands a break from all styling tools at least once a week. Select ceramic versions to reduce the actual heat damage from your styling tools, as they heat up more evenly so you don’t have to keep using them on the same sections of hair continually. It’s also important to protect your hair before you apply the heat.

Stress

There’s a multitude of proof showing links between hair loss and stress, but it’s also known that stress can lead to hair breakage. Telogen effluvium is the type of stress most likely connected to hair damage. Stress makes your follicles go inactive, so hair that’s in the middle of a growth cycle may break off. Managing your stress may result in healthier hair.

Over-washing

You’re also more likely to have excess sebum (natural oil) production in your scalp if you have oily skin. This can lead to the temptation to wash your hair more often than required.

You shouldn’t wash your hair multiple times per day while daily washes are fine if you have oily hair. On the other hand, extremely dry hair may only need weekly shampooing. It’s also important that you shampoo tenderly at the scalp and apply conditioner well from your ends to your roots. Try a dry shampoo if you need extra oil reduction during the day.

Medical condition

Lupus Diabetes, Thyroid disease, eating disorders, deficiency anemia, etc can cause hair loss. Most times, when the underlying condition is treated, the hair will return unless there is scarring as in some forms of lupus or follicular disorders.

7 DISEASES THAT MIGHT BE CRITICAL TO YOUR HAIR HEALTH

THE PHYSIOLOGY OF HAIR:

The follicles, commonly known as the hair roots, are embedded in the scalp. They derive their nourishment from within, therefore a healthy hair reflects a healthy body & vice versa.

HAIR LOSS, THINNING & BALDING:

In modern times, young people are also facing the trauma of hair loss/balding. This has led to various researches & studies, which tried to ascertain the reasons of hair fall.

The reasons are numerous & varied- they are general, specific & medical conditions.

7 DISEASES THAT ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR HAIR FALL:

DISEASE #1: THYROID DISORDERS-

Thyroid gland is the largest endocrine glands found in the neck, its main function is to produce hormones & increase the metabolism. It greatly impacts the functioning of the different parts of the body.

When the thyroid glands produce excess of hormones (Hyperthyroidism) or less amount of hormones (Hypothyroidism), the body functions get imbalanced, leading to great hair fall.

DISEASE #2: ALOPECIA AREATA-

This is an autoimmune disease that attacks the hair follicles and leads to great hair loss. It may also peek to Alopecia Totalis leading to complete hair loss on the scalp or Alopecia Universalis leading to complete hair loss on the body.

DISEASE #3: DIABETES-

Diabetes is a medical condition in which the body stops producing Insulin or is unable to use it effectively or both. Insulin is a hormone that works on the sugar of the foods & its imbalance affects many parts of our body including hair cycle.

DISEASE #4: LUPUS-

Lupus is a chronic autoimmune disease, which causes damage to many body parts including the scalp. The scalp develops rashes on the scalp which damages the follicles to a point where they get completely damaged.

DISEASE #5: SCALP INFECTION- RINGWORM –

It is a fungal infection in which the scalp becomes red, itchy and when the infection spreads it creates a bald patch. This is generally contacted by pet animals or any other infected person.

DISEASE #6: POLYCYSTIC OVARY SYNDROME (PCOS)-

This is one of the common endocrine disorders, impacting women. This syndrome leads to severe hormonal imbalance, leading to hair loss/thinning of hair.

DISEASE #7: CANCER TREATMENT-

A very effective treatment of Cancer is Chemotherapy but it has a lot of side-effects & the one most common one is hair loss. It leads to spot baldness or at times complete baldness. Even the medicines are strong & lead to hair loss.
