7 Tips to Hair Loss Prevention
Lossing hair is a part of life that most people do not look
forward to. If you have bald family members, you may be
especially nervous about waking up one morning to find you
pillow covered with hair, or your hair brush with more hairs
than your head. If this sounds like something that you worry
about, then you might want to learn some hair loss prevention
tips.
1- One widely held belief is that the over use of chemicals on
the hair can cause hair thinning and eventually hair loss. If
you like to enhance the look of your hair through chemical
means, but are nervous about future hair loss, it is a good idea
to only have this type of work done by a licensed beautitian.
Many do-it-yourselfers are too inexperienced to properly perform
chemical treatments to their hair, having a tendacncy to over
apply the products. If you do color your hair, it is thought
best to keep the frequency to a six or eight week minimum.
2- It is important to eat healthy foods and ensure that your
body is getting the vitamins and minerals that it needs. Often
times the body will show poor health in the hair follicles and
finger nails before and actual illness is detected. While it is
important to get enough of the right nutrients, it is just as
important not to get too much of any one type of vitamin. For
example, too much of vitamins A and E, have been linked to hair
loss.
3- When and if an illness is detected, it is important to take
care of your health needs. If the doctor has prescribed
medications, take it. Failure to follow the doctors advise will
cause your body to work harder just to stay alive, it won't have
enough energey to keep the hair follicles growing and will
eventually lead to hair loss. This is an excellent form of hair
loss prevention.
4- The style that you wear your hair can also be a hair
loss
prevention opportunity. When ever possible, avoid pulling hair
into styles that require it to be pulled tight and bound with
elastic for long periods of time. While hair accessories have
become much more hair friendly during recent years, hairstyle
such as tight ponytail, pig tails and cornrows can still do
damage to the hair shaft and ultimately to the hair follicle.
5- A way to pamper yourself doubles as a hair loss prevention
idea. Using satin or silk pillowcases, is thought to prevent
hair loss due to the fact that a silk or satin pillowcase will
cause less friction while sleeping than a cotton or flannel
pillowcase. This is because the head and the hair slide across
the pillow instead of needing to be forcefully pushed across.
6- There is a whole group of old wives's tales that relate to
hair loss prevention. These tips definatly won't hurt to try,
but really don't do anything to combat the issue of hair loss.
For instance, it has been said that standing upside down will
increase blood flow to the head and that massaging the scalp or
briskly brushing the hair will make the hair stay put and not
fall out. This is simply not the case.
7- It is important to remember that even in a healthy person, it
is completely normal to lose between 50 and 100 hairs from the
head every day. If you feel that your hair loss issues are
beyond that norm, speak with your doctor or dermatologist about
your concerns. They will be able to determine if the hair loss
is due to a medical or age issue, and point you in the right
treatment direction.
