How to fight hair loss?

How to explain, treat and prevent hair loss?

Hair loss is normal if less than 100 hairs fall out per day. However, in the fall, some people can lose up to 200 hairs, but beyond that, treatment is necessary. First, determine the cause of the hair loss before opting for a course of dietary supplements and topical treatments. It's also essential to improve your lifestyle through a healthy diet, among other things.

Hair loss: how to explain it?

When it is not hereditary, hair loss is most often linked to a fluctuation in hormones . After childbirth, menopause or after contraceptive treatment, it is common for the production of female hormones to drop considerably. Male hormones: androgens are then more important and cause various phenomena, including hair loss.

Stress, too, when excessive, can cause hair loss, which in some cases doesn't manifest itself until several months after the triggering event. A dietary imbalance can also explain hair loss. An iron deficiency can be enough to make hair dull, fragile, and brittle. This can be accompanied by other obvious symptoms such as a feeling of constant fatigue and a pale complexion.

The heat from thermal hair styling tools also contributes to weakening hair and promoting hair loss. In addition to the use of barrettes and elastics, tight hairstyles like braids also promote traction alopecia. Using hair care products that are unsuitable for your hair type can also explain the phenomenon. Tobacco is also a hair enemy.

Hair loss: what treatments should you use?

A dietary supplement treatment is an ideal solution if hair loss is due to a lack of iron, vitamins, or zinc. These essential nutrients promote the production of keratin, a protein made up of 18 amino acids and the main component of hair, which actually contains 95% of it.

If hair loss is caused by poor hair care choices, stopping the offending products is the simplest solution. Treatments should be selected based on the hair's nature and needs. Hair products with regulating and purifying active ingredients, for example, are recommended for oily hair. In the case of seasonal hair loss, anti-hair loss products such as shampoos, lotions, and serums are recommended. Formulated with plant extracts, they deeply nourish and strengthen the hair structure.

Preventing hair loss with a course of food supplements: how to do it?

To boost hair regrowth , Biocyte offers Keratine max® - powder to dilute . Characterized by a delicious multi-fruit flavor, this anti-hair loss food supplement promotes growth thanks to its formula composed of horsetail extracts and a K-AMINE complex which provides the 18 amino acids of Keratin forte .

The Keratin Forte Anti-Hair Loss pack from Biocyte's hair care range is also ideal for preventing hair loss. This dietary supplement helps prevent hair loss thanks to Montpellier Capillary extracts, and significantly improves hair fiber strength thanks to its keratin-enriched formula.

Protect yourself against hair loss with simple habits

To avoid losing your hair (due to stress) , adopt a healthy lifestyle:

— Practice regular physical exercise to better relieve stress and avoid being overwhelmed.

— Limit the use of hair accessories such as headbands, elastics, and others.

— Limit the use of heating appliances.

— Avoid washing your hair with water that is too hot.

— When rinsing, use lukewarm water with the juice of a lemon to tighten the scales.

— Say no to smoking.

— Eat a healthy and varied diet. Include foods rich in zinc, such as whole-grain bread, dried beans, calf's liver, seafood, and lentils. Foods rich in B vitamins, such as fish and dairy products, are also essential for nourishing hair from the inside out.
