Four misunderstandings about hair loss!

Four misunderstandings of hair loss

Myth 1: Does washing your hair every day lead to hair loss? Truth: No, it's normal to lose some hair when washing your hair. Shampooing itself won't lead to more hair loss, it just lets those "laid-off" hairs leave the scalp.

Myth 2: Will dyeing and perm lead to hair loss? Truth: No, perm mainly changes the shape of hair shaft through thermal stimulation, which has no effect on hair follicles, but it will cause irreversible damage to hair keratin. There is no evidence that hair dyeing can cause hair loss, but it is easy to cause skin allergies. Repeated use of hair dye will make hair more and more slender and fragile. Therefore, regular perm and hair dyeing will not directly lead to hair loss, nor will it aggravate hair loss.

Myth 3: "Baldness" is a man's patent? Fact: No. Baldness occurs in both men and women, but it is more common in men. Seborrheic alopecia, also known as androgenetic alopecia (male alopecia for short). Androgen is related to hair growth, both men and women have it. Male: Male baldness is mainly manifested by the upward movement of forehead hair, and later developed into baldness on the top of the head. Female: Male baldness accounts for more than half of female hair loss, mainly manifested as head and forehead hair loss, and hairline is not affected.

Myth 4: Too much scalp oil can lead to hair loss? Fact: No. The oil on the scalp comes from sebaceous glands. The secretory function of sebaceous glands is mainly controlled by androgen, but it is also influenced by environment, temperature and humidity, and has no causal relationship with alopecia.

Tip: It is suggested that people with greasy scalp should increase the frequency of shampooing appropriately and enjoy a refreshing feeling.
