Every shampoo ad seems to think that hair loss is a woman’s problem alone.  Actually, hair loss can be an issue for anyone with hair! That might sound quite hopeless but fear not. There is hope. The first step to tackle this is understanding the science behind hair growth and causes of hair loss. Join us on this journey to regain your crown of confidence! 

We will focus not only on taking proactive steps to regain this crown of glory, but also on maintaining its overall health. Let's break it down for you with some hair care tips!

What is Hair Loss?

Male and female pattern hair loss, also known as androgenetic alopecia, is a progressive condition that typically affects specific areas of the scalp. And it is quite common! Its prevalence was 67.1% in men and 23.9% in women, by the age of 50 years (Source). 

In men, pattern hair loss usually starts with a receding hairline at the temples and thinning at the crown. Over time, these areas may expand, leading to significant hair loss on the top of the head. For women, pattern hair loss involves hair thinning on the centre of the scalp. The hairline is typically preserved, but the decreased density leads to a widening part and overall thinning of the hair. 

The causes of hair loss, including the onset of pattern hair loss can vary but often begins after puberty. Genetic factors play a significant role as causes of hair loss as well, influenced by both male and female hormones, particularly dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Other causes of hair loss such as age, hormonal changes, and certain medical conditions may also contribute.

We understand that hair loss can have a negative impact on an individual's quality of life and self-image. Fortunately, there are various remedies available, including medications like minoxidil and finasteride, and hair transplant procedures (Source). However, we will guide you through some hair care tips at home as well!

Some Remedies for Hair Loss

With proper hair management, you can reclaim a healthy head of hair and cut down the causes of hair loss. Here's some hair care tips:

  • Professional: Consult a healthcare professional or dermatologist to identify the root cause of your hair loss and explore suitable treatment options.
  • Nourish from Within: Maintain a balanced diet rich in nutrients like iron, zinc, and vitamins D3 and B12 to support healthy hair growth. The Co Being HSN+ supplement for hair is recommended if deficiencies are detected.
  • No stress for tresses: Implement stress-management techniques to manage stress, like exercise, meditation, or therapy, to reduce the impact of stress-related hair loss. 

Try out The Co Being EASY PEACY - the perfect stress management supplement in addition to techniques to manage stress that helps relax both your body and mind.

  • Handle with Care: Avoid excessive use of styling tools, harsh chemicals, and frequent washing or drying, as these can damage your hair. Embrace more gentle and natural hair care routines.
  • Medication Attention: If you're taking medications known to cause hair loss, discuss alternatives with your healthcare provider, if possible.

How to prevent hair loss

Here’s some manageable hair care tips.

Do's, hair care tips at home:

  • Use lukewarm or cool water for washing. Hot water can strip away natural oils and lead to dryness.
  • Massage your scalp with lukewarm oil. The benefits of oiling hair include stimulating blood flow and promoting healthy hair growth.
  • Trim your hair regularly to get rid of split ends and maintain its overall health.
  • Use a gentle microfiber towel when towel-drying your hair and pat dry instead of rubbing vigorously.
  • Use heat protection serum before hair styling. This helps improve hair strength and prevents hair fall to give your hair a break from excessive heat styling.
  • Eat vitamin-rich foods like green leafy vegetables, seeds and nuts, carrot, citrus fruits or take supplements for hair such as The Co Being STRAND STRONG.

Don'ts:

  • Don’t let chlorine water damage your hair while swimming. Use a swim cap.
  • Don’t pick shampoos with sulphate in them.
  • Avoid frequent chemical and heat treatments such as excessive hair colouring, hair styling, or relaxers. They can weaken and damage hair. 
  • Don’t wash your hair immediately after removing a hairstyle. Grease it with coconut or olive oil and then wash it with a suitable shampoo. This helps maintain scalp health and gives a conditioning effect.
  • Excessive stress or illness can lead to hair loss. Follow a proper Hair Growth Routine and use techniques to manage stress to reduce hair fall gradually.

Don't tie hair tightly with elastic bands or accessories at bedtime. Especially ones that can pull and break your hair.
