Is it too late to start worrying about thinning hair…? For those who have such concerns, we recommend self-care as a preventive measure.
You can prevent thinning hair by reviewing your daily shampoo!
An essential part of preventing thinning hair is the shampoo you use every day. Although a wide variety of shampoos are available these days, it is important to choose a shampoo with the right shampoo ingredients for your purpose, as many shampoos are image-driven shampoos that may harm the scalp environment.
To prevent thinning hair, many people choose shampoos that focus on hair growth effects. However, some types of shampoos contain surfactants that are highly irritating and conversely lead to dandruff and roughness, and there is a risk of scalp damage.
Therefore, choose shampoos that are low-irritating and suitable for thinning hair. Shampoos that clearly state “hair-growing effect” on the product should be considered irritating. If you are unsure, you should consult a trusted hair stylist to find out what kind of ingredients are used.
Massaging changes the scalp environment and prevents thinning hair!
Poor blood circulation in the scalp increases the likelihood of thinning hair. Nutrients are not getting to the hair follicles, making it difficult for hair to grow and easy for it to fall out.
Massage is the best way to improve blood circulation. Rubbing with hair growth products is effective, but you don’t have to spend that much money to massage your hair when you shampoo.
You are washing with hot water and your scalp is warm, and massaging in that state will improve blood circulation. However, it is not good to over-wash, so if there is shampoo product on your scalp, stop massaging within 5 minutes.
Three major lifestyle evils to review in the prevention of thinning hair.
As we have shown, self-care can prevent thinning hair in a cost-effective manner. Here are three key lifestyle habits that can cause thinning hair.
- Disordered eating habits are not a good thing
Our diets are becoming more Westernized, and this tends to lead to a greasy diet. Excess fat causes overproduction of sebum on the scalp.
A greasy scalp is easy to get dirty and makes it difficult for hair to grow. Excessive washing causes the skin to secrete even more sebum as a defense mechanism, so shampoo gently while reviewing your diet.
- Improve your smoking habit.
Smoking not only causes skin problems in women. Smoking alone causes blood vessels to constrict. Thinning hair is promoted due to poor blood circulation to the scalp.
It also destroys vitamin C, which causes skin problems on the scalp and makes it difficult to maintain growing hair. Thinning hair becomes more noticeable because it is easier to lose and harder to grow.
- Is there a connection between exercise and thinning hair?
People tend to think that thinning hair and exercise have nothing to do with each other, but physical exercise can promote blood circulation and burn fat stored in the body.
Promoting blood circulation is essential for a hair-growing environment, and reducing fat prevents the overproduction of sebum on the scalp. Moderate exercise is recommended.
As mentioned above, there are some causes that at first glance appear to have nothing to do with the prevention of thinning hair. Shampooing and massaging are important, but a review of lifestyle is also recommended.
