A Guide to Female Hair Loss

Posted in: Hair Restoration
Hair loss usually occurs because of hormonal factors. As a consequence, biological events like puberty, pregnancy and menopause that affect female hormone levels can also cause female hair loss. In the case of pregnancy, hair loss is simply a consequence of the stress the body undergoes during labor and should stop approximately six months after birth. Discontinuation of taking birth control pills can also cause temporary female hair loss.

The most common type of female hair loss is androgenetic alopecia, or female-pattern baldness. This type of hair loss is associated with hair thinning predominantly over the sides and top of the head. Female hair loss affects about one-third of all susceptible women and usually onsets after menopause, although it can begin earlier.

Using the right kind of hair brush and keeping it clean is necessary if you want to have strong hair that will not fall out in the future.

 

A Natural Hair Brush

Using a natural bristle like boar’s hair is a good decision. The boar bristle hair brush bristles are similar to the keratin of your hair and absorb the dirt and oil just like your hair. In addition, the tips of the boar hair brush are rounded and gently massage your scalp and hair.

Kent hair brushes are available in boar hair. But avoid the Kent nylon hair brush if you want the best care for your hair.

The nylon hair brush is not recommended since it is rougher on your scalp and is no where as good as the boar bristle hair brush. The nylon bristles are usually sharp and inflame your follicles and break your hair when you use it.
