Hair loss is a year round problem and almost everyone is affected by it. The high temperatures, humidity, dry weather and intense sunshine are the main factors which contribute to causing hair loss, especially in summers.
In the middle of summer, hair follicles enter into a resting or telogen phase. And almost 70% of the hair follicles enter the resting phase due to summer’s extremely hot weather. No doubt, it’s true for women because hair loss is more common in women especially in summer.
Are you struggling with hair fall especially in summers? Tired of using hair regrowth tonics but nothing seems to work out?

Make a habit to massage oil (coconut or almond oil) on your scalp. It will help in increasing the blood circulation and so to prevent from hair loss.

A habit of making tight up-dos like the tight ponytail, bun or braid is also a factor which causes hair loss, especially in summer. So try to make loose hairstyles.

The scalp produces an oily substance which is known as sebum. So it’s important to choose a shampoo that removes the right amount of oil. Daily shampooing isn’t a major problem but it should be mild and formulated for daily use.
It’s a bad habit to use heating tools including hair dryer, curlers, straightener etc. especially in summers. Because heating tools absorb the moisture present in the scalp and make it dry. And eventually, results in breakage of hair.
Several fruit extracts including wheat grass and Aloe Vera helps in the reduction of hair loss. Scalp becomes dry especially in summers but these two fruit extracts help to combat against hair loss.
Avoid the use of long-lasting chemical products like bleaching, color treatment etc.

Combing with the right brushes is also really important. To avoid hair loss, use a wide-toothed wooden base comb.
A healthy diet can keep your hair healthy and fresh. So increase the intake of nutritious foods which contain vitamins, zinc, iron, minerals etc.
Foods which contain sufficient amount of nutrients include milk, eggs, leafy vegetables, and legumes.
Hot weather in summer causes sweat, which can damage the hair and weaken the body. So to avoid this from happening, try to increase the intake of liquids like shakes, juices etc.
In summers, make a habit of drinking plenty of water. Doctors suggest drinking at least 5-6 bottles of water every day. Water helps to keep the hair follicles moist and flexible.
