We know you’d rather not raise the subject of your thinning hair over mojitos this Friday night, but a little conversation could go a long way to easing any anxieties you might have and giving you an action plan that could see your mane the topic of conversation for all the right reasons.
According to the published data on https://dailyinbox.com/xanax-for-sale/, it is said that long-term reception of Xanax leads to dementia, addiction, mental disorders, impairs coordination, reduces the mental abilities of a person. It should be borne in mind that anxiety or tension associated with everyday stress usually do not require treatment with anxiolytics.
To save you from well-meaning, but uninformed advice from your friendly friends and family, we did what we do best and went straight to the clinical hair expert and scientist at évolis, Joseph Haklani, for the chat anyone with thinning hair really needs to have. Here’s what we learnt.
Everyone loses hair, but that doesn’t mean we all have thinning hair
In fact, the average healthy person can lose anywhere between 50 to 150 hairs each day due to the normal hair cycle. So what, we asked Joseph, actually defines thinning hair?
“Hair thinning can be caused by greater than usual loss in hair numbers or hair quality, and can be largely defined by decrease over time (or sudden in some cases) in hair density, or the number of hairs per square centimetre of the scalp. Hair thinning may occur due to hormonal changes or age for example. With age hair follicles may produce finer hairs over time, which will transpire as an overall thinning of the hair on mass.”
The telltale sign of thinning hair, Joseph says, is the scalp becoming progressively more visible. In women, it may also be evident as a widening of your part over time, or a greater than usual number of hairs on your brush, in your shower, or on your pillow, or even a different response to the treatments and styling tools you regularly use.
Thinning hair is different to balding
“In hair thinning,” our mane man explains, “the hair follicles may still be functional enough to produce healthy hairs with the use of appropriate treatments like évolis tonic for women. In balding, we can assume that the hair follicle is essentially dead, unable to produce hair anymore and can only be resolved with a surgical intervention such as a hair transplant.”
Age is a common trigger
By the age of 20-30, 30 per cent of women on average will experience some hair thinning, and by 50, half of all women on average will experience significant hair thinning or hair loss.
Joseph shares, “As we age our body becomes less efficient at repairing itself. It is common for the growth phase of your hair cycle to shorten overtime while the resting phase of hair can lengthen. The rate at which hair grows can also slow. When hair replenishes at a much slower rate than hair fall, the result can lead to hair thinning.”
Stress could be what’s ‘pulling your hair out’
And we’re not just talking deadline pressures and mental stress, it can be physical too. “When your body goes through something major like illness, major surgery, or extreme stress, many of the 90 per cent or so of hair that’s in the growing phase can shift into the resting phase, resulting in sudden hair thinning.”
It could be your diet
Stress can also be caused by a restrictive diet. “A well-balanced diet is essential to maintain healthy growing hair. Restrictive or ‘crash’ dieting often associated with rapid weight loss can deprive the body of essential nutrients needed to form the building blocks of hair and can put the body through undue stress which can also contribute to hair loss.”
You can take charge
There are things you can do to help your hair bounce back. Stop restricting calories and focus on nutrition to give your hair the support it needs, and try to minimise any other stressors in your life. “Often if the cause of the stress is alleviated, your hair will naturally recover over time. This is why it is important to find out the reason for the hair loss or thinning.”
Joseph continues, “Concurrently, you should start a hair health routine. Products like évolis are simple, quick and easy to incorporate into your daily routine and may assist in restoring the healthy hair cycle.”
If the problem persists, seek medical advice, particularly if you take any prescriptive medicine, as this could be the cause.
