Can Women's Hair Loss be Prevented by Taking Good Care of Your Hair?

Your genes, more than anything else, actually determine if you will lose your hair. Caring for your hair can, however, have an effect on the timing of your hair loss, if this is your fate. Even women who have hair loss running in their families can postpone its occurrence by applying the right hair care techniques. The problem is, it can be hard to decide what to do with so many differing ideas on the subject. The hair care strategies that follow are widely agreed upon by experts to help stop or postpone hair loss.

Do not ever brush wet hair. This is something you should remember. The best way to get the tangles out of wet hair is to dry it with a towel and then use a wide toothed comb to sort through the tangles gently. A brush is too rough on hair that's wet. It can actually take your hair right out, which may hurt. It can also do harm to your hair follicles, which is definitely not what you want. You should only brush your hair when it's dry.

Hair dye is something that perhaps almost all women have given a shot at least once. Addiction to hair dye is probably not a recognized medical condition, but it could be. If you choose this route (and most do it as a money saving measure) don't start by dyeing your roots. Leave the roots for the very last 10 minutes, or so. Here's why... doing the roots first can sometimes can follicle inflammation or infection when the dye saturates the follicle. So what will happen is you'll damage your follicles, and if you do it enough you can cause your hair to fall out. For the safest results, you may wish to consider having a professional do it. It'll be done the right way, it will look great, but you'll pay more obviously.

Have your hair styled often at a good salon. There is not enough evidence at this point to say that this will definitely keep your hair healthy. But it will definitely improve the appearance of your hair. This is not trivial if you are coping with women's hair loss. It makes sense to keep whatever hair you have looking its best, doesn't it? Your hair stylist is also someone who can observe the condition of your hair, and may be able to alert you regarding the first signs of hair loss so you can consult a doctor about it promptly. This could help you prevent the problem entirely!

When considering women's hair loss, it may seem unimportant to be worrying about hair care. Hair loss can be quite devastating for women. However, when you give your hair the best possible care, you are far less likely to suffer from the kind of hair loss that's due to scalp conditions or infections. Another bonus to good hair care is that the hair you do not lose will look really good. So, by treating your hair follicles as good as possible, you'll keep your hair looking its best and you'll probably hold onto more of it too.
