Hello friends, today we will talk about the Treatment for Hair fall, Dandruff and Split
Hair.
Treatment for Hair fall, Dandruff and Split Hair.
Hair is made of a type of protein called keratin.
Most people lose about 50 to 100 head hairs a day.
These hairs are replaced — they grow back in the same follicle on your head.
This amount of hair loss is totally normal and no cause for worry.
If you're losing more than that, though, something might be wrong.
It is normal to lose between 50-100 hairs a day, this is part of the hair renewal process.
However most people suffer from excessive hair loss at one time in their life.
There are many reasons for hair loss.
Many of these causes are temporary and a few are permanent.
These are some of the more common reason for hair loss are:
Stress: Physical or mental stress can cause temporary hair loss.
The reason for this is that the hair follicles enter the telogen phase prematurely, this
causes them to stop growing new hairs and to shed hairs.
Drugs: Many drugs can also cause hair loss.
Here are some drugs which may cause hair loss -Anti cancer drugs, Epilepsy drugs, anti-acne
drugs, Lipid-lowering drugs (clofibrate, bezafibrate), ACE inhibitors for blood pressure, Drugs for
treating gout , Anti-malarial (chloroquine).
Skin disorders: Some disorders of the skin, for example psoriasis, tinea infection, lichen
planus on scalp may cause hair loss.
Aging: Hair loss increases likelihood increases with age.
By 35, 40% of men have noticeable hair loss, while by 60 65% do.
Also, elderly hair tends to be thinner and fine giving more of an appearance of hair
loss.
Hormonal: Since hormones both stimulate hair growth and cause hair loss, hormonal changes
by far have the biggest impact on hair loss.
These can affect both men and women.
Men generally have hair loss concentrated in a specific pattern from the front through
to the crown.
Women tend to have thinning throughout their head without being in any specific pattern.
This type of hair loss is caused by the androgen DHT, or Dihydrotestosterone.
Since everyone has DHT that is produced by their bodies and only some people suffer from
hair loss there has to be another factor involved.
This other factor is having follicles that have a greater number of Androgen receptors
for the DHT to attach to.
This is the component that is inherited through the genes.
Deficiency in Diet: If iron in the body is low then this may cause hair loss also, this
is generally more a problem with women.
Some people who go on low protein diets, or have severely abnormal eating habits, may
develop protein malnutrition.
To help save protein the body shifts growing hair into the resting phase.
If this happens massive amounts of hair shedding can occur two to three months later.
A sign of this is if the hair can be pulled out by the roots fairly easily.
Thyroid problems: Both an overactive thyroid and an under active thyroid can cause hair
loss.
Birth control pills: Women who have a genetic predisposition to suffer from Androgenic Alopecia
can have it occur at a much younger age by taking birth control pills.
The hormonal changes that occur trigger the onset of the Androgenic Alopecia.
Trichotillomania or Hair Pulling: Some children and less often adults play with their hair
by pulling on it or twisting it.
This can be part of a behavioral problem.
If the behavior is not stopped permanent hair loss can result from the constant stress on
the hair.
7 Foods That Stop Hair Loss.
Salmon.
Hair is a protein fiber (as are nails), which means you need to eat protein to grow new
strands and keep the existing ones strong.
Protein is also required to produce keratin, a key structural component of hair.
A smart choice is marine-based protein, like salmon, which has been shown to boost hair
health in women thanks to its omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin content.
Honey.
When used as a topical treatment, honey can improve the look of thinning hair.
In a study of patients experiencing seborrheic dermatitis, which includes scaling, itching,
and hair loss, those who applied a solution of 90% honey and 10% water to their scalp
every other day for 4 weeks reported an improvement in hair loss at the end of the study.
Nuts and seeds.
Some of the most promising research on reversing female-pattern hair loss was released in January
2015 in the Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology.
Subjects in the study received a nutritional supplement containing omega-3 and omega-6
essential fatty acids and antioxidants for 6 months.
The results were overwhelmingly positive: After 6 months, 90% of the subjects reported
a reduction in hair loss, 86% reported an improvement in hair growth, and 87% reported
thicker hair.
To achieve similar results, eat nuts and seeds high in omega-3s and omega-6s, like walnuts,
flaxseed, and oils such as grapeseed, sunflower, and sesame.
Spinach.
One study found that women with hair loss have significantly lower iron and vitamin
D2 levels than age-matched controls.
Spinach is a good bet because it's rich in iron and high in vitamin C, which aids in
iron absorption.
Toss a spinach salad with hardboiled eggs or mushrooms, both of which are loaded with
vitamin D, to give yourself the best shot at slowing hair loss.
Oysters.
Zinc seems to be a super nutrient when it comes to preventing and treating hair loss.
In one study, researchers compared the zinc levels of 50 people with hair loss due to
alopecia areata to 50 healthy controls and found that all of the alopecia patients had
significantly lower zinc levels.
Another studyexamined the zinc and copper levels in 312 men and women experiencing hair
loss.
No matter the cause of the hair loss, all subjects had significantly lower zinc levels
than controls.
Fortunately, zinc supplementation and eating plenty of zinc-rich foods can slow hair loss
in the majority of these cases, so it's a good idea to add it to your diet.
According to the National Institutes of Health, oysters contain more zinc per serving than
any other food.
Other food sources of zinc include walnuts, spinach, eggs, sunflower seeds, green peas,
wheat germ, oatmeal and chickpeas.
Oils.
Pumpkin, rosemary, and coconut oils all act as nectar to the scalp.
In one study, researchers gave men with hair loss 400 mg per day of pumpkin seed oil or
a placebo for 24 weeks.
Those who took the pumpkin seed oil experienced a 40% increase in hair growth.
And there's something to be said for oils even when you don't eat them: When used as
a pre-wash and post-wash grooming product, coconut oil has been shown to protect hair
against protein loss, and rosemary oil has been shown to increase hair growth comparable
to minoxidil, the main ingredient in Rogaine—and with less scalp itching.
Seaweed.
A recent study found that a supplement containing cistanche tubulosa (a desert plant used in
traditional Chinese medicine) and laminaria japonica (an edible brown seaweed) promoted
hair growth in people with mild to moderate hair loss.
After 16 weeks of supplementation, volunteers saw a 13% increase in hair volume and a 27%
increase in hair thickness.
The supplement was also effective at treating scalp inflammation and dandruff.
