Both men and women have the potential to lose their hair. This is fortunate for those of us who will not have to experience hair loss. The less fortunate people will lose their hair. There are several reasons that hair loss occurs. Many of them are key factors that contribute to hair loss that may be prevented.

Hair growth and hair loss may be effected by stressful events in one’s life. Large portions of hair may be falling out with extended or deep stress issues. The body is unable to accept all of the nutrients as efficiently as it would without stress. Fluctuations in hormones from stress related issues may cause hair loss in some places and unsightly hair growth in others. Managing your stress issues and exercising regularly may help you to reduce stress. Both will allow you to halt hair loss and possibly experience hair re-growth.

Preservatives do not work by preserving yourself, only the food you eat. So all of the refined and processed foods that you eat may have a taxing toll on your hairs ability to repair, grow, and stay in your scalp. Removing even a small amount of refined foods from your diet will improve your hair, and prevent hair loss from increasing. If you are experiencing severe hair loss due to your diet, then a complete diet overhaul may be necessary and recommended by your doctor.

If you recently started taking a new drug or prescribed medication, and are experiencing hair loss, ask your doctor about side effects and potential side effects. If it starts after you begin a medication, but it is not a listed effect; report it to your doctor immediately. Often enough new medications cause hair loss and it can be easily reversed.

Your hair loss problems may have been inherited from your genetic lineage. Parents or grandparents, maybe even distant relatives might have had a genetic hair loss problem. The mother’s side of the family has the most dominant traits for hair loss. Many living and age related factors may be in effect. Doctors can prescribe medications that can help your hair re-grow.

Hair Spray? Check. Flat Ironed hair? Check. Women, and men alike both follow the trends of using hair sprays, gels, ironing, blow drying, and many other chemical and heat processes that can damage the hair shaft and cause your hair to literally fall out in clumps. This is saddening for those that care about their hair. The best thing you can do to prevent even more hair loss is give your locks a deep conditioning treatment, get it cut, and start over without dying or using chemicals. Other environmental factors such as air quality, sunlight, UV rays, and your job all play a roll in hair loss.
