I occasionally get emails from people who ask about their specific hair type and whether or not it contributes to their excess hair fall or suffering from excess hair loss. An example of this is someone asking: “I have fine hair, but it’s gotten more oily lately. Do people with thinner hair fall out more? Does my hair being more oily have anything to do with my falling out more?” Is?” I will answer this question in the next article.
Fine hair generally means you have a lot of hair (as long as it’s always been fine):Usually people who have thinning hair rather than thick hair start out with more hair. Examples are blondes and some brunettes. The make-up of these people has generally remained the same since childhood. He’s always had a lot of hair, but it didn’t look too much and wasn’t out of control because the thin texture would usually help it lay down and behave. If this describes you and your fine texture isn’t something that’s happened recently, it can be normal to have a little more hair loss than others because what’s “normal” or “typical” is really just based on the percentage of hair. is (taking into account each hair on your head) that is in the resting or shedding phase at a time. Most doctors will tell you that losing 10% of your hair at a time is normal.
For most people, this ten percent equation puts them in the range of 50 – 100 hairs per day. But if you have more hair on your head than is considered normal, then apparently the extra 10 percent hair on your head will come out without any worry.
If your hair has recently gone fine: If you weren’t a kid with really fine hair and you’ve noticed this texture recently, it may be more problematic. If you previously had coarser or more normal textured hair, but recently you’ve noticed that individual hairs aren’t as voluminous or don’t look normal to you, this would suggest that some miniaturization is occurring. (This is the process by which inflammation and androgens like DHT negatively affect your hair follicles by causing them to have trouble producing thick, healthy hair. Therefore, individual hairs become thinner and cover less.) This cycle can worsen over time to the point that the follicle is producing only baby hair and, eventually, none at all.) Sometimes, medications (birth control pills and other ) can cause a reaction similar to chronic telogen effluvium (CTE OR). prolonged shedding) and medical conditions that cause your body to overproduce cortisol or other hormones to which your body has developed sensitivity.
How does oily hair add to this damage?:First, fine hair gets oily faster because the hair isn’t as thick and gets coated with natural oils much faster. People who fall into this category are advised to wash their hair daily and/or apply a very light weight conditioner. I know some people who have very thin hair and they use spray conditioner to prevent hair fall. Another option is to condition the hair first and then wash it with shampoo so that there is no residue left behind to make hair look oily or weigh it down.
More of a problem when oiliness is a new thing. Because if so, it is more indicative of the androgen issues I discussed earlier which would point more towards androgenic alopecia as the cause of your hair loss. Now, there are certainly effective treatments and styling techniques that can make fine hair appear fuller and thicker, but it’s important to understand the difference between whether oiliness is a new thing or caused by androgens so that you can treat it accordingly. can cure.
