If you're a woman, hair loss
is on your short list of things you don't want as a problem. When you
see too much hair coming out with every brushing, it's enough to alarm
the staunchest of women. In short, we view hair loss as a calamity!
What can be done? You first need to educate yourself on the causes of
hair loss in women. You'll want to identify the cause in your own case
so that you can pursue making the changes that will address this trauma!
In the United States, estimates vary, showing that 15-80% of all women
experience significant hair loss as early as age 40, often attributed
to normal aging. With statistics like these, let's take a look at
several common causes of hair loss in women and see what you might do
to reverse this most unacceptable condition.
Some experts say a common cause of hair loss in women is due to our use
of tints, dyes and bleaches. More is not better. Frequent use of these
products can weaken the hair, making it brittle and prone to breakage
or loss. Another of the common causes of hair loss in women is over-use
of hairdryers, which strip natural oils from your hair.
Tight curlers, tightly-pulled pony tails and the wrong hair brush can
wreak havoc with the strength of your hair.
If these causes of hair loss in women fits your profile, simply avoid
these hair losers for a while, use a good conditioner, the right
hairbrush and a once-a-month treatment with mayonnaise worked through
the hair and left for half an hour under a shower cap. This remedy also
makes your hair grow faster!
Another category of causes of hair loss in women relates to stress,
certain medications, hormone fluctuations and diet. Teens and women
entering menopause may experience this type of hair loss, but it's
generally temporary and can be reversed by correcting the causes. Talk
to your pharmacist to see if any medications you're taking may relate
to your hair loss. Employ relaxation techniques to deal with stress.
Eat quantities of fruits and vegetables daily. Brewer's yeast, nuts and
wheat germ are high in protein, contributing to strong hair.
