Creeping it Real About Hairloss
We couldn’t help ourselves with the ridiculous pun 😂. But in all seriousness, hair loss is no joke! It can be embarrassing, frustrating, depressing, and can make you feel less than great about your appearance. And unfortunately, hair loss can happen because of many different factors!

Causes of Hair Loss
The first thing to remember with hair loss is that some hair loss is completely normal! Because of the natural shedding cycle, it is typical to lose between 50 and 100 hairs a day. If you feel like you are losing more than that, here could be the culprit:
Tight hairstyles: Are you consistently wearing your hair pulled back tight into a bun or ponytail? This could be causing hair loss! The constant pull on your scalp is called “traction alopecia” and it can cause unnecessary friction on the follicles causing your hair strands to weaken. Give your hair a break from the tight ponies!
Hormonal changes: Yup, just like your skin, your hair is greatly affected by hormones. This is one reason women deal with excessive hair loss after having a baby. Menopause or a thyroid imbalance can also play a big part in your hair loss.
Medications: Blood thinners, acne medication, antidepressants, and cholesterol-lowering medications all have been known to cause hair loss. If you notice an increase in hair loss while taking these medications, talk to your doctor!
Nutritional Deficiencies: If your body isn’t getting the nutrients it needs, it could be manifesting that in your hair health! If you think your diet is affecting the quality of your hair, consider talking to a dietician about making changes to your diet.
Hereditary: One of the most common causes of hair loss is heredity. As you get older, your hair turns grey and it falls out. This is a natural part of aging, but for some people this begins at a much younger age.
Stress: Commonly called telogen effluvium, this kind of hair loss isn’t permanent, but it can come on pretty fast. Often occurring a few months after the initial stressor, stress caused hair loss can sometimes lead to a cycle of continued hair loss.
Fast Weight Loss: Losing weight too quickly through calorie deprivation can force the body to think it is malnourished. When this happens the body stops providing the necessary nutrients for healthy hair growth.
Product Buildup: Using products like dry shampoo and mousse frequently clog up your follicles so they can’t create new hair. Because of this, the hair isn’t able to produce new. It’s important to exfoliate and get rid of the grime!
