We all know that the health of the scalp is important for hair growth.
But, it’s time to talk about the importance of keeping the scalp extremely healthy.
Why a healthy scalp is important for hair growth.
It is very important to keep the scalp skin moisturized and free of debris.
Some of these are, excessive styling products and dead skin.
Make sure that your hair follicles do not have dry skin and dandruff.
You will ensure that your hair grows without hindrances!
Each hair grows from a follicle under the surface of the scalp, ensuring good nourishment of the follicle and surrounding skin and helping to promote hair growth and reduce the risk of inward-growing hair.
But how exactly does our mental and physical health affect our hair and scalp?
Physical and mental health are indeed contributing factors to a wide range of skin and hair conditions.
There is an increase in the stress hormone, cortisol, during stressful times in our lives.
This leads to changes in the skin and hair, including increased oil production and inflammation.
Women who experience high levels of stress are 11 times more likely to
experience hair loss than those with lower levels.
Severe stress, illness and pregnancy can shock the system and cause 70% of the hairs to shift from the growth phase to the resting phase, resulting in a shedding called “telogen effluvium” about two months after precipitation.
How can we help?
The role of professionals in the industry is to advise their clients on hair.
Whether it concerns increased hair loss or discomfort with dry scalp.
Finally, it is important to recognise how mental health can affect the scalp and hair and to raise awareness around this issue.
