According to Medical News Today, hair loss is not only due to genetics or hormones, but also comes from wrong habits in hair care. Here are some popular habits that are quietly "destroying" your hair:
1. Wash your hair too often or with hot water
Wash your hair every day, especially with hot water, causing the layers of natural oils to wash away, causing dry scalp and weak hair follicles. Experts recommend washing your hair only 2-3 times a week and using cool water or warm air to protect your hair.
2.Stretching hair too tight or often using a tight fence According to the American Academy of Dermatology, tying hair tightly or tightly to the scalp can cause hair loss due to traction alopecia - a form of hair loss that is difficult to recover if prolonged.
3. Using too many chemicals and heat
Exfoliation, dyeing, straightening, bending... changes the structure of hair, making hair strands weak and prone to breakage. In addition, using a hair dryer and hairpinner at high temperatures regularly also causes hair to lose moisture and become pimples.
4. Brush hair when hair is still wet
wet hair is very weak and prone to breakage. You should use a toothbrush and gently exampress with a soft towel instead of rinsing heavily after washing.
5. Substitious eating
A diet lacking in protein, iron, zinc, vitamins B and D is a common cause of hair loss. Experts recommend adding foods such as eggs, salmon, green leafy vegetables, walnuts and whole grains to keep hair healthy from within.
According to the Cleveland Clinic, maintaining a healthy lifestyle, eating well, reducing stress and limiting chemicals on hair is the most natural way to prevent hair loss and stimulate hair growth.
