Causes of Hair Loss
1. Nutritional deficiencies

2. It could be possible that essential nutrients may be missing from your diets such
as iron, copper, zinc and proteins. The deficiency of vitamin D is another cause of
hair loss. In order to avoid this, make sure to get out and soak up some sun.
2. Hormonal Imbalance
After the age of 30, women can experience hormonal imbalance which can
cause hair loss. This is usually caused by excessive dihydrotestosterone (DHT)
conversion. Even though estrogen is the main hormone that women produce,
testosterone and other androgens such as DHEA also occur in the female body.
As women reach a certain age, they may begin to convert these androgens to
DHT.
3. Thyroid issues
If the thyroid gland, which is at the front of the neck, produces excessive or an
insufficient amount of the thyroid hormone, then the hair growth cycle may
change. However, if you do have a thyroid issue, you will notice other symptoms
along with hair loss such as weight gain or loss, sensitivity to cold or heat, and
changes in heart rate.
4. Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)
Women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) have a hormonal imbalance
which creates higher levels of androgens than normal. This often causes hair to
grow on the face and body, while the hair on the head grows thinner. PCOS can
also lead to ovulation problems, acne, and weight gain.
5. Birth Control Pills
Birth control pills can cause hair loss. The hormones in the pill that suppress
ovulation can cause hair to thin, especially in women with a family history of hair
loss. Sometimes hair loss can occur when you stop taking the pill. Other drugs
associated with hair loss are blood thinners and medicines that treat high blood
pressure, heart disease, arthritis, and depression.

3. 6. Stress
Extreme stress can cause sudden hair loss which could last for several months.
Minimizing stress through exercise, meditation yoga and massages will reduce
your chances of experiencing hair loss.
7. Hairstyling products
Over-treated hair can lead to hair loss due to the toxic chemicals found in dyes
and styling products. Similarly, almost all shampoos contain Sodium lauryl sulfate
(SLS) which has a toxic effect on your immune system and has been proven to
corrode hair follicles and impede hair growth. It is advisable to stick to natural
shampoos and dyes.
8. Medical Conditions
- Telogen effluvium
general shedding from all over the head. We typically lose some 100 hairs a day
but sometimes shedding accelerates due to stress, illness, medication or
hormones. Hair generally grows back within six months.
- Androgenetic alopecia
in women, hair generally thins in the top, frontal area, just behind the hair line,
but stays thick at the back. An enzyme causes the conversion of the male sex
hormone testosterone to another hormone, dihydrotestosterone (DHT), causing
the hair follicles to produce thinner hair until they stop.
- Alopecia areata
an autoimmune disease that affects up to 2% of the population. It causes round
patches of hair loss and can lead to total baldness. In many cases, the hair
regrows.
- Ageing
As we age, the rate at which our hair grows tends to slow down. Hair strands get
smaller and have less pigment, and hair becomes thinner, finer, and grey. In
order to keep your hair healthy, eat whole foods which help to keep your body
youthful, as well as your hair. If you have prematurely grey hair, you can find
here natural supplements that can help you.

4. - Genetics
Hair loss that is genetic is known as androgenetic alopecia and is known to be
the most common cause of hair loss. The gene can be inherited from either your
mother's or father's side of the family, though you're more likely to have it if both
of your parents had hair loss.

Tips For Controlling Hair Fall
1. Shampoo
It is extremely important to understand your scalp type and choose the right
shampoo. Also, you need to wash your hair depending upon your scalp. For
instance, over washing hair with a dry scalp can lead to hair fall, or not washing
oily locks thrice a week can lead to the same.
Further, make sure the shampoo is not loaded with chemicals including sulfate,
paraben and silicone that can make your tresses brittle and hence, prone to
breakage.
2. Conditioner
A good conditioner can work wonders for your locks. It contains amino acids that
help to repair damaged hair, and also helps to keep them smooth.
3. Diet and Exercise
You need to feed your hair all the right nutrients particularly plenty of protein and
iron. However, along with eating a balanced diet ensure you are exercising side
by side. Yoga and meditation are effective in reducing hair fall.
4. Chemical Treatments

5. Undergoing rigorous hair treatments like straightening, perming and colouring are
definitely not kind to your tresses. Further avoid using blow dryers, curling rods,
especially on wet hair as they actually boil the water in your hair shaft and make
them brittle.
If you really need to use a blow dry, then keep it in the lowest heat setting. If
using other products that heat your hair, start with a fortifying leave-in conditioner
and finish with a protective spray.
5. Oiling
Oiling improves blood circulation and nourishes the roots. Make sure to massage
your tresses once a week with oil that suits your scalp. Cover it with a shower
cap and wash it off with a mild shampoo after two hours.
6. Too many styling products
Using too many chemically laden products on your hair could prove harmful in
the long run. It’s best to give them a break and try natural homemade recipes
instead.

Diet For Healthy Hair
While treatments and shampoos do play a role in maintaining healthy hair, the
secret to thick, shiny, strong tresses is a healthy diet.
1. Spinach
Iron deficiency is the main cause of hair fall. Spinach is not only a great source
of iron but also vitamin A, C and protein. It also contains sebum which acts as a
natural conditioner for hair and provides us with omega-3 acid, magnesium,
potassium and calcium. These help in maintaining a healthy scalp and lustrous
hair.
2. Carrots

10. Known to be good for the eyes, carrots contain Vitamin A that also improves hair
growth. Deficiency of vitamin A may lead to a dry and itchy scalp. Carrots are
known to add to the thickness of hair, make hair lustrous, improve blood
circulation, strengthen the hair, protect hair from external damages like pollution
and also help prevent breakage of hair and hair fall.
3. Eggs
Since hair is composed of 68 percent keratin protein, eggs help rebuild damaged
hair. They are also rich in a B vitamin called biotin that helps hair grow.
4. Oats
Oats are rich in fibre, zinc, iron, omega-6 fatty acids and polyunsaturated fatty
acids (PUFAs) that stimulate hair growth and will make your hair thick and
healthy.
5. Walnuts
Walnuts contain biotin, B vitamins (B1, B6 and B9), Vitamin E, plenty of protein
and magnesium - all of which strengthen hair cuticles and nourish the scalp. It
helps protect your cells from DNA damage that may be caused due to sun
exposure.
6. Lentils
Lentils are a great source of protein, iron, zinc, and biotin. They are also loaded
with folic acid which is necessary for restoring the health of red blood cells that
supply the skin and scalp with much-needed oxygen.

Hair Care Tips For Healthy Locks

11. 1. Regular Trims
Hair tends to be the most damaged near the tips, and a good trim every six to
eight weeks can help solve your woes. Damaged hair has a straw-like texture,
and can be chopped off to promote growth and remove split ends.
2. Stress
Stress is one of the root causes of a lot of health problems, including hair loss. It
can also disrupt the process of hair growth and lead to premature greying. Again,
meditation and yoga on a regular basis can prove to be a good stress buster.
3. Avoid Taking Hot Showers
As comforting as hot showers are, it dehydrates strands (just like skin), and strips
the scalp of its natural oils, leading to dry, brittle hair that’s more prone to
breakage. Instead, opt for lukewarm water and try to rinse hair with the coolest
temperature.
4. Combing Wet Hair
Our strands are never more fragile and prone to breakage when wet. Hence it’s
important to use a wide-toothed comb or let them air-dry first before any form of
styling.
5. Wearing Tight Hairstyles
Pulling your hair too tight from the roots causes damage and hence, should be
avoided. It is also best to not tie your hair tight while sleeping.
