Can Too Little Protein Cause Hair Loss?
Introduction
Hair typically grows about half an inch per month, though this rate slows with age. Each strand of hair can remain on your head for two to six years, continuously growing during most of this time. However, several factors can disrupt this growth cycle, causing hair to fall out prematurely or not be replaced.
Understanding Hair Loss
Recent discoveries have identified the hardening of collagen as a contributor to hair loss. Individuals without hair loss tend to have supple collagen, while those experiencing hair thinning often have hardened collagen. This hardening can interfere with the healthy function of hair roots, disrupting the essential exchange process in the hair follicle cycle and causing hair to become suffocated.
Key Causes of Hair Loss
- Diet: Insufficient protein or iron in your diet can lead to hair shedding. Extreme dieting can exacerbate hair loss, so it's essential to lose weight sensibly, especially if you're already experiencing thinning hair.
- Childbirth: Many women experience significant hair loss within two to three months following delivery.
Effective Hair Care Tips
- After washing your hair, dry it normally, then turn your head upside down and shake it vigorously. Once upright, style your hair using your fingers instead of a brush or comb. This method adds fullness to otherwise flat, thin hair.
- Only shampoo when your hair is dirty. Fine hair tends to get dirty faster, so it may require more frequent washing, even though it is more prone to breaking. Fine-textured hair benefits from a good shampoo and a volume-building conditioner to maintain its strength and fullness.
By understanding the causes of hair loss and adopting gentle hair care practices, you can better manage and potentially prevent further thinning.
