Hair Loss

Hair loss does occur in women. Here's what you can do if it happens to you.
  • Stress leads to permanent hair loss. More hairs are temporarily shed during stressful situations. When the stress is relieved, hair should grow normally.
  • Baldness is inherited from your mother's side. You can inherit the gene from either side of the family because it's carried on the "X" chromosome which both men and women carry.
  • People who wear hats every day will go bald. A tight hat can damage the hair shaft where it rubs, but the hair follicle should still be healthy. Any hair loss is usually temporary.
  • Certain vitamins and minerals can stimulate hair growth. Despite the claims, antioxidant and other vitamin supplements won't promote hair growth unless there's a deficiency.
  • Frequent shampooing can make your hair fall out. Shampoo makes hair look fuller by removing residues.
  • Coloring your hair can make it fall out. Strong chemicals, whether from dyes or a permanent, could weaken your hair, but any loss is temporary unless the hair follicle becomes damaged. Despite claims, exotic cosmetic lotions, herbal potions, and special shampoos don't release trapped hairs or promote hair growth. But shampoo, hair dye, or mousse may make your hair appear fuller.
  • If you shave your head, hair grows back thicker. Hair grows below the skin surface. So shaving will not improve hair growth.
