Alterna Haircare - Proactive Measures for Handling Hair Thinning
Hair thinning is a real (and frightening!) issue, impacting people of all ages and hair types. Many people wonder, "What are the reasons behind hair thinning?" and the reality is that there are numerous factors. It may be genetic, hormonal, medical, or part of aging.
However, there are measures that everyone can take to manage thinning hair, ranging from changes in diet and trying new hairstyles to incorporating specific products into your hair care regimen.
Nutrition Is Key
The saying, "You are what you eat, " holds, and our external appearance reflects our dietary habits in many situations. Diets that excessively limit the intake of essential vitamins and minerals can disrupt hair growth. Consuming wholesome, nutrient-rich meals packed with these vitamins and minerals can stimulate hair growth and is an excellent proactive approach to maintaining your hair's health. Looking for an easy way to integrate this? Opt for foods high in protein and biotin, like legumes, which prevent hair loss. You should also include foods rich in iron, vitamins A, C, and E, such as avocados, citrus fruits, and leafy greens.
Experiment With a New Hairstyle for Thinning Hair
Don't worry; we won't mention the term "combover." There are various hairstyles designed for thin hair, and if your hair begins to thin, the best thing you can do is switch up your style.
- Trimming your hair can add more volume. Bobs, lobs, and pixie cuts, indeed! Long, thin hair tends to weigh it down, leading to less volume at the top. Giving your hair a healthy cut can prevent it from looking straggly.
- Prioritize texture over layers. Heavy layers are not recommended for thin hair, but adding texture on the top of your head can boost your hair, making it look fuller and thicker overall.
- Avoid bangs. Female pattern baldness usually starts from the crown, and adding bangs means you're taking away hair from where it is most needed! Using the texture method to frame your face can create the illusion of bangs without risking any volume loss.
