Millions of women experience hair thinning or hair loss at some point in their lives and some women are simply born with thinner hair. While everyone’s situation is unique, we’re excited to share our best practices for thin hair to make sure your hair is getting the care it needs to look and feel its best.
Loose Hairstyles
Pulling your hair back into a ponytail is a convenient way to get it out of your face. Though utilizing that hair tie can be doing more harm than good to your hair. If your hair is noticeably thinning, try and avoid pulling it back to decrease added stress on your hair follicles. Start by attempting to keep your hair down most of the time, especially at the beginning of the day. If you find yourself wanting to pull your hair back, try a loose ponytail or braid. This will keep your hair out of your face while reduce the damage to your hair.
Air Drying
When hair is wet, it is more prone to breakage, so blow drying your hair with hot air is actually doing more damage than you might expect. With that being said, it is best to let the hair air dry when possible. The best thing you can do is gently squeeze excess water with a microfiber towel and then allow the hair to dry over time. To help you style your hair, try adding the thickening and texturizing mousse, this can even help give your hair some of its volume back.
Get Your Nutrients
Diets that are full of protein and vitamins help greatly with growing stronger hair. If you notice that you aren’t eating enough protein or have a vitamin deficiency, this could be leading to your thinning hair. Try taking a supplement like Keraviatin Hair and Scalp Health Supplements to ensure you’re getting the vital nutrients your hair needs to grow longer and stronger.
Manage Your Stress
Stress is a major cause of hair loss in women, so if you feel that you are stressed out more than usual and your hair appears to be thinning, it is likely the two are related. Alleviating stress is an important factor in supporting hair growth as it accounts for so many of the reported causes of hair loss. As women, we often feel the weight of the world on our shoulders. The truth of the matter is that enduring prolonged periods of stress means we can’t be our best selves. Whether it’s a bath, a walk, calming music, or yoga, try to discover healthy methods to relieve stress.
When you notice drastic changes in your hair, your first instinct may be to panic. But rest assured that changes in your hair are completely natural and by making changes to your routine you can reverse the signs of thinning hair and help maintain your body, volume and shine.
