Heavy hair loss is not just due to genetics
Normally, people can lose about 100 strands of hair per day. However, if you notice more hair loss than usual or your hair becomes thinner and thinner quickly, the cause is not limited to genetic factors.
Daily hair care routine, from washing, drying, brushing to using chemicals or pulling hair too hard, can all have a negative impact on hair health. These habits, even small but repeated frequently, will silently weaken hair strands, damage hair cuticle, dry, brittle hair and make it difficult to recover. Therefore, recognizing and adjusting daily habits is very important to keep hair healthy, thick and shiny.
Incorrect hair care habits cause dry, broken hair
- Excessive hair removal: The strong chemicals in bleach make hair dry, dry and brittle.
- Hot showers: High temperatures cause hair to lose water, the scalp to dry and secrete more oil.
- Forcing hair too tight: Causing hairpins to stretch, easily breaking.
- Abuse of styling machines: High heat breaks down the structure of hair strands, making hair weak and thin.
- Long-term exposure to sunlight: UV rays damage the skin's layers, causing brittle and dry hair.
- Reduce hair washing: Dust accumulates on the scalp, causing blockages, limiting new hair growth.
- Continuous scratching: Causes damage to hair follicles, leading to increased hair loss.
- Brush your hair when still wet: This is when your hair is weakest, most prone to breakage and split ends.
- Skipping meals: Lack of nutrients makes hair unnourished, prone to dryness and difficulty growing.
