HAIR LOSS



How to Prevent Hair Loss

Hair loss can occur in men, women as well as in children. It is normal to shed some hair daily but if the rate of shedding is greater than the rate of growth then it’s an alarming situation. If hair loss has occurred due to stress, anxiety, improper diet, irregular sleeping patterns or cheap hair-care products, then there is always a cure for your problem. But if it is due to heredity, it is a bit difficult to cure the problem permanently.
However, there is a possibility of reducing the hair fall rate and preventing hair loss in both the cases. In case of temporary hair loss, the hair usually grows back after the proper treatment of the root cause of the problem. But keep in mind that it is not an overnight process. It takes time for restoration of hair.
