SEASONAL HAIR LOSS: CAN THE WEATHER REALLY MAKE YOUR HAIR LOSE?

Don't worry if your hair has started to fall out like a shedding cat. Even though you may feel like you're going to go bald soon, seasonal hair loss is completely normal. So can the weather really make our hair fall out? The answer is “yes.” But don't worry, as S'Clinic, we have prepared a guide for you to save your hair from seasonal hair loss.

Hair loss is a problem experienced by men and women of all ages. It is certain that it negatively affects our quality of life. Hair loss can increase as we get older, hormonal changes, medication, stress and many other factors.

There are also seasonal changes. The quality of our hair decreases with seasonal changes. There are more strands of hair left on our brush and in the shower drain. And we come to the question that everyone is very curious about:

“Can seasonal changes cause hair loss?”

The answer is “yes”. But first, let's examine this from a scientific perspective;

Every strand of hair that completes the development process is shed.  This period varies depending on genes. It takes two to five years for a single strand of hair to complete its active growth phase.

We generally have between 100,000 and 150,000 hair strands on our scalp. It is extremely normal to lose between 50-100 strands of hair per day. However, if you are losing more hair and thinning has occurred in various areas, we recommend that you have your hair analyzed by a specialist. To have your free hair analysis, click here

Which factors increase hair loss?

Hair growth is a very complex process. It consists of 3 phases. Anagen is the active development phase of the hair,  Catagen is the phase when it stops developing,  Telogen is the phase when it is shed.

Our hormones determine the density and thickness of the hair. Genes are a prerequisite for healthy and strong hair.  However, different hormonal irregularities, menopause, giving birth, goiter or polycystic ovary syndrome can increase hair loss.

Physical factors such as drug therapy and chemical effects such as perm, lightening or high heat can increase hair loss. Protein, vitamin, mineral and amino acid deficiencies negatively affect the development of hair and make it dull.  

What is the connection between nutrition and hair growth?  

The link between nutrition and hair loss is not seasonal. So, our diet is always important for our hair health. Our hair absorbs the vitamins and minerals from what we eat.

Hair is the fastest growing tissue in our body after bone marrow. That's why it needs nutrients during the growth phase. In places where there is a nutritional deficiency, it stops developing and enters the shedding phase.

The most important nutrients for our hair: Iron, zinc, vitamin A, B vitamins (B2, B5, B6, B9, B12 and especially biotin, B7), vitamins C & E, and essential fatty acids.

Is seasonal hair loss a rumor?

Seasonal hair loss is still a controversial issue. Women are more affected by this due to hormonal changes within the scope of monthly cycles.   In addition, sea salt, chlorinated pool water and exposure to intense sunlight damage the hair.

How do we treat hair loss?

First of all, the real cause of hair loss must be understood. Because even a disease, genetic background or psychology can cause hair loss.  

After your hair analysis is performed at S'Clinics, we determine the appropriate hair regrowth procedure for you.
