What Causes Hair Fall?
Causes of Hair Fall
Humidity and Seasonal Changes: High humidity levels, especially during monsoons, weaken hair roots and lead to excessive shedding. Scalp infections, like fungal growth, are also more common.
Nutritional Deficiencies: Diets lacking in iron, protein, and essential vitamins (like Vitamin D and B12) due to vegetarian or unbalanced eating habits can cause hair thinning.
Hard Water and Pollution: Many regions in India have hard water, which contains minerals that damage hair and cause buildup. Air pollution and dust can also clog hair follicles and lead to scalp issues.
Hormonal Imbalances (PCOS, Thyroid Issues): PCOS is prevalent among Indian women, leading to hormonal hair loss. Thyroid disorders are also common and can trigger excessive shedding.
Stress and Lifestyle: High-stress levels due to work pressure, irregular sleep, and unhealthy lifestyle choices (e.g., junk food, lack of exercise) contribute to hair fall.
Harsh Hair Care Practices: Frequent oiling without proper washing, excessive use of chemical-based shampoos, heat styling, and tight hairstyles (like buns and braids) can weaken hair over time.
How Do Hair Scalp & Strands Get Damaged?
Excessive Oil & Product Buildup: Overuse of styling products, heavy oils, and not washing hair properly can clog follicles, leading to dandruff and hair fall.
Harsh Chemicals: Sulfates, parabens, and alcohol in shampoos strip natural oils, causing dryness and irritation, making the scalp dry, which leads to damaging hair scalp, and roots.
Bacterial Infections: Conditions like dandruff, seborrheic dermatitis, and scalp psoriasis lead to itching, flaking, and inflammation, and affect both the scalp and the strands.
Heat & Pollution: Sun exposure, dust, and air pollution weaken the scalp barrier, causing dryness, redness, and irritation. It poses the same adverse effects on hair strands too, leading to tangles, knots, thus escalating hair fall.
Nutritional Deficiencies: Lack of essential nutrients like iron, biotin, protein, and omega-3 fatty acids weakens hair from the root, making it brittle and prone to shedding. In the same way, deficiency of vitamins B, D, and iron leads to poor scalp health, making it prone to flaking and sensitivity.
Stress & Hormonal Imbalance: High cortisol levels from stress, thyroid disorders, or PCOS disrupt hair cycles, leading to hair thinning as well as scalp damage.
How Do Free Radicals Hasten Hair Fall?
Free radicals are unstable molecules that cause oxidative stress, damaging hair follicles and disrupting the natural hair growth cycle. The affect on hair growth and hasten hair fall in many ways. Which are as follows.
- Weakens Hair Follicles: Free radicals attack hair follicle cells, leading to premature thinning and shedding.
- Disrupts Scalp Health: Oxidative stress leads to inflammation, dandruff, and scalp sensitivity, reducing hair growth potential.
- Damages Keratin Structure: Keratin is essential for strong hair strands, but free radicals break it down, making hair brittle.
- Hampers Blood Circulation: Poor scalp blood flow due to oxidative stress limits nutrient supply, slowing hair growth.
Ingredients Responsible for Hair Fall
Chemical Ingredients: Harsh chemical compounds like Sulfates (Sodium Lauryl Sulfate - SLS, Sodium Laureth Sulfate - SLES), Parabens, Formaldehyde, etc. strip natural oil from the scalp, leading to itchiness while stimulating hormonal abnormalities and thus effectively trigger hair thinning.
Toxic Metals and Environmental Pollutants: Toxic metals, which are also addressed as environmental pollutants like Lead & Mercury, Chlorine, Silicones (Dimethicone, Cyclomethicone), mount scalp build up resulting in suffocating hair follicles and breakage.
Hormone-Disrupting Compounds: Excess DHT (Dihydrotestosterone) shrinks hair follicles, causing male and female pattern baldness. With this, Phthalates have also been found to trigger hair loss.
Nutrition Deficiency: Lack of important nutrients that help in hair build-up and growth, like iron, Vitamin D, biotin, instill multifaceted issues like brittle strands, weak follicles, etc,. which leads to hair thinning.
How To Prevent Hair Fall?
Scalp Massage with Nourishing Oils
Massaging the scalp with natural oils like coconut, castor, or rosemary oil boosts blood circulation, strengthens hair roots, and reduces hair fall. Oils with antifungal properties (e.g., tea tree oil mixed with a carrier oil) help treat flaky scalp and dandruff. Warming the oil slightly before applying enhances absorption and scalp nourishment.
Herbal Hair Rinse for Scalp Health
Rinsing hair with natural infusions like neem, hibiscus, or green tea reduces flakiness and strengthens hair follicles. Apple cider vinegar (ACV) diluted with water helps balance the scalp’s pH, remove buildup, and control dandruff, making hair shinier and frizz-free.
Protein & Moisture-Rich Hair Masks
Applying DIY hair masks using yogurt, eggs, banana, and aloe vera deeply nourishes hair. Aloe vera gel soothes scalp irritation and fights dandruff, while eggs provide protein to strengthen hair. Adding honey and coconut milk keeps frizz under control and hydrates dry strands.
Balanced Diet & Hydration
A diet rich in iron, biotin, vitamin D, and omega-3 fatty acids promotes strong hair growth. Including spinach, almonds, flaxseeds, fish, and lentils in meals prevents hair thinning. Staying hydrated prevents scalp dryness and flakiness.
Sulfate-Free & Gentle Hair Products
Using mild, sulfate-free shampoos with ingredients like argan oil, shea butter, and keratin helps retain moisture, preventing frizz and breakage. Avoiding harsh chemicals (SLS, parabens) protects hair from damage and maintains scalp health.
Reduce Heat & Styling Damage
Excessive heat styling, harsh brushing, and tight hairstyles cause breakage. Using a microfiber towel, a wooden comb, and applying heat protectants before styling reduces frizz. Air drying hair and using a silk pillowcase prevent unnecessary friction and dryness.
Essential Nutrients To Prevent Hair Fall
Vitamins
Vitamins play a significant role in hair growth and volume augmentation while addressing all associated problems. For example, Vitamin A supports sebum production for a healthy scalp, Vitamin B7 (Biotin) helps strengthen hair and promote growth, Vitamin C boosts collagen production and protects against oxidative stress, Vitamin D supports hair follicle health and prevents shedding, and Vitamin E acts as an antioxidant to protect hair cells from damage.
Proteins & Amino Acids
While proteins take the front lead in structuring hair strands, amino acids as the primary compounds of proteins, fuel better shape and resistance maintenance. For example, Keratin as the principal protein, helps prevent breakage, and Collagen unlocks amino acids for hair strength and elasticity. In converse, amino acids keep supplying the necessary energies to proteins for the buildup. For instance, Cysteine helps in strengthening Keratin, Methionine boosts collagen production, and Lysine boosts iron absorption for stronger follicles.
Antioxidants
There are two important antioxidants found in hair, Polyphenols and Omega-3 Fatty Acids. While Polyphenols reduce oxidative stress and strengthen hair, Omega-3 Fatty Acids nourish the scalp and prevent hair thinning.
Fatty Acids
Plant-based fatty acids, Flavonoids fight inflammation and oxidative stress, whereas Saw Palmetto (DHT Blocker) helps prevent hair thinning linked to hormonal imbalances
Enzymes & Co-Enzymes
Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) improves follicle energy production and reduces aging-related hair loss. Catalase helps break down hydrogen peroxide, preventing premature graying.
Minerals
Essential minerals such as Iron support oxygen transport to the hair follicle, Zinc helps with tissue growth and repair, and Magnesium prevents calcium buildup on the scalp, which weakens follicles
