Cold Weather Hair Care

Cold Weather Hair Care
Cold weather is particularly harsh on hair. It causes dryness, brittleness, frizziness, dandruff, split ends and excessive hair fall. We say excessive because you are naturally shedding hair every day, but the normal rate is about 100 strands a day. If you find yourself constantly picking up fallen hair on your clothes, chairs, cars and on the floor, you better have yourself checked because excessive hair fall could eventually lead to hair loss and may indicate an underlying problem that needs to be treated.

Hair loss can be brought about by any of these factors: change in hormonal levels, aging, stress, poor diet and certain medications. Your body requires nourishment all the time, more when you're stressed out to avoid stress related illnesses like fatigue, insomnia and hypertension. During the cold months, it is easier to see how the different systems of the body are affected by weather changes. Picture people with pallid complexion, having weak weak nails, suffering from poor vision, feeling lethargic, and of course, falling or thinning hair.
