Myth Or Fact? Getting To The Root Of Hair Loss

When it comes to hair loss, there is plenty of misinformation around. An emotional and confusing experience, it’s understandable that when we experience hair shedding, we panic and start Googling. But this can be to our own detriment because if you stumble across the wrong info, the panic will only intensify.

Here, we’re breaking down some of the most common hair loss myths.

Isn’t Hair Loss Something That Happens To Older People?

Nope. A common hair loss myth is that it’s exclusively an issue for later in life. Hair loss can actually affect anyone, and while our hair does tend to thin as we get older, it’s an issue you can definitely come across at any time in your life.

I Heard It’s Only A Men’s Issue

A common misconception is that hair loss is something only men experience. There are loads of treatments in the market for men’s hair loss, which definitely skews the conversation toward them. However, women can also experience hair loss, and we’re all about including female voices in the conversation.

Should I Stop Wearing Hats?

Heard the rumour that hat-wearing can cause hair loss? Don’t throw out your fave snapback just yet because wearing hats won’t cause hair loss. In fact, it can actually protect your scalp and strands from UV damage when you’re outdoors, so if anything, it’s a great idea to wear a hat when you’re out and about.

I Heard Hair Loss Is Irreversible

Look, some types of hair loss are irreversible, like alopecia and other genetic conditions. But not all hair loss is forever. Stress, diet, and illness can all cause temporary hair loss, and even things like not caring for your hair and scalp can cause you to shed more hair than you need to. Taking care of yourself, your scalp and your strands can see you turn around hair shedding faster than you might think.
