Is it possible that our hair decreases in volume over time? It is true that age comes and our hair goes?
Hair loss is a problem that affects more people than you think. The funny thing is that it is not a subject much talked about among women the way it is among men. Moreover, when they lose their hair, in most cases, it is for good. To understand the reasons and to know the solutions, I talked with two experts. Worth reading!
According to dermatologist Dr. Alexandre Filippo, a Blog Sport & Health partner, it is true that our hair falls, and it it’s due to the declining of hormones levels. And with age they tend to become scarcer. Therefore, the earlier you deal with the problem, more chances to revert it you have. Thus, look for a specialist to evaluate and understand the reason for the fall, and the best possible treatment.
The main cause for hair loss is genetic, but it can also happen due to hormonal disturbances, lack of vitamins, anemia, rheumatic diseases, thyroid problems, the use of chemicals, among many other causes.
“The most appropriate for men is Finasteride, while for women Minoxidil is still the most used”, recommends Dr. Alexandre Di Filipo.
Who also gave us very important tips to prevent hair loss was the Hair Stylist and Hair Consultant, Deivison Lessa, a blog partner.
According to him, the wrong things we do are:
1 – Leaving residues on hair, such as conditioner, leave in, and tip repairer.
2 – Not washing your hair properly.
3 – Not eating properly.
4 – Not doing a regular follow-up with doctors and dermatologists.
What should we do then?
1 – Proper hygienization of the scalp.
2 – Stimulate blood circulation in the scalp through a massage and light tugs in the hair shaft.
3 – Wash hair regularly, prioritizing the scalp. When using styling products like leave in mousse and tips repair products never apply on the scalp or exaggerate the amount residue to accumulate and clog the pores.
4 – Wash hair straight and not making a circular motion, since circular movements stimulate the sebaceous glands to produce more sebum in the scalp.
5 – Intercalate loose and tied hair, because when the hair is only tied up it softens the skin and stimulates sebum, thus favoring the clogged of pores.
6 – Avoid staying with your hair wet because it promotes fungus, dandruff and seborrhea, some of the great villains when it comes to hair loss.
7 – Live your life in a healthy and pleasurable way, thus avoiding stress and depression.
Today, such factors are largely responsible for excessive hair loss.
So, do not panic! Hair, the same way it falls, it grows again. But we must be careful not to make mistakes that can leave us literally bald.
Any questions? Send them to the Dermatologist Dr. Alexandre Filippo and the Hair Stylist and Hair Consultant, Deivison Lessa.
We are here for that! Kisses.
