Is hair loss normal? Hair loss is a more rampant issue among black women than you'd like to think. Almost half of them experience it in some form or the other. Unfortunately, many doctors are unfamiliar with black hairstyling practices, leaving women with unhelpful or adverse advice. While certain types of hair loss are genetic and cannot be prevented, others, like hair loss and stress or a poor diet, can be controlled. I recommend staying up to date with routine checkups, as conditions like anemia, low vitamin D levels, and abnormal thyroid hormones can affect hair health. Black women are particularly susceptible to traction alopecia, caused by tight styles that pull at the hair root. So keep an eye on your hair; your hair could be trying to Tell You Something! In this blog, you will discover How to stop Female Hair Loss with these expert tips!


THE BASICS OF HAIR LOSS


Before we can understand the types of core causes, we must first understand the hair growth cycle. The American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) considers it for 50 to 100 hairs every day. With over 100,000 hairs on your head, even a minor hair loss. New hair usually grows to replace the hair that has fallen out, but this does not always happen. This is where the issue starts, and the hair loss in both men and women becomes apparent. However, in our society, female hair loss has a significant impact on their life.


WHAT ARE THE CAUSES OF HAIR LOSS IN WOMEN


To find out why women's hair loss happens, we need to understand its root cause first. Hair loss can be of different types, such as permanent hair loss, baldness, or temporary hair loss due to stress or hormonal imbalance in females. Hair loss can be hereditary, such as male pattern baldness or female pattern baldness, known as Androgenic alopecia, and it's the most frequent cause of hair loss, affecting up to 50% of people.


  • Hair loss in young women can occur during puberty due to hormonal changes. Enzymes in the body convert testosterone into dihydrotestosterone, which can result in permanent or temporary hair loss.

  • In PCOS, women experience hair loss due to hormonal changes related to the condition. Hair loss with PCOS is considered one of the primary hair loss reasons for females and can cause symptoms like hair thinning, hair growth on the body and face, acne, male pattern baldness, and dark patches on the skin.

  • The use of chemicals and heat while styling hair is another factor that contributes to female hair loss. Chemicals in hair products can injure the hair roots and make them dry and prone to breakage.

  • Heated tools used for styling hair can also damage the hair significantly.

  • Some hair styling products can cause allergies and excessive hair loss due to their components.


WHAT TO DO WHEN YOU EXPERIENCE HAIR LOSS?


There are so many hair supplements for female hair loss on the market. Remember, hair mainly thrives on protein, iron, zinc, and vitamin D, C, and B12 which nourish your hair and promote its growth, giving lustrous-looking hair. Biotin (vitamin B7) is also essential for the health of your body's cells, especially your hair. The deficiency of this vitamin can be one of the hair loss reasons in females, skin rashes, and brittle nails. The best natural sources of Biotin are meat, eggs, fish, seeds, nuts, and vegetables. Iron is required by red blood cells to carry oxygen, and its low level causes anemia resulting in hair loss, pale skin, etc. The supplement is irrelevant if you don’t have viable red blood cells to bring the nutrients to the various organs to be metabolized. The other vitamins required for hair growth are vitamin D, which is essential for bones and hair, vitamin C, and zinc, which helps make proteins for hair and other body cells.


With advancements in medical science, we have treatments for female hair loss! You will need to consult a hair aesthetician to learn what treatment will offer the best results. Medications such as steroids and minoxidil are only temporary fixes to an internal problem. They can be utilized but not as first-line treatment. Using such chemicals can cause side effects such as skin irritation, scalp inflammation, high blood pressure, heart rate fluctuation, headaches, and temporary hair loss. It can also increase a person's disposition to develop diseases such as diabetes later on in life. Hair transplantation is also utilized but is a painful procedure for many, with sometimes low success rates.


Hair loss and stress have a co-relation. Taking care of one’s mental health by adopting a healthy and active lifestyle practices may assist in combating hair loss caused due to stress.

Although more women, such as Jada Pinkett Smith, accept their baldness on a social level, our society still needs to learn to appreciate them for their bravery.
