Nothing is more stressful than hair becoming thinner and drier, or when your hairline starts to recede. Many of us associate shiny, strong hair with a good appearance but even the most luscious locks will get old at some point. Although it’s a common to think that hair loss in Malaysia is a men’s issue, it affects plenty of women too.

Before you panic about losing your crown, just know that it’s normal for hair to fall out as we age. In fact, we could lose up to 60 strands per day but if it’s more than that, you need a check-up.

Don’t worry though, if you are dealing with shedding hair, you are not the only one. Many Malaysians suffer from hair-loss and here are 3 reasons why:

1. Genetics

To be more specific, it’s called Hereditary-pattern baldness. It’s not really a disease, but a natural condition caused by a combination of genetics, hormone levels and the ageing process. So, if your family members have a history of hair loss, you probably might inherit it too.

2. Hot Water

Haircare requires effort and one needs to take care of the smallest of the details. We know how satisfying it is to have a hot shower in the cold morning, but rinsing your hair in high-temperature every day can eliminate the moisture and essential oils from your hair. It’ll leave your scalp dehydrated, your hair frizzy with split ends and result in hair loss.

3. Emotional & Physical Stress

Unfortunately, a lot of Malaysians can relate when it comes to frustration either from personal problems, work, or dealing with our cost of living every month. Our stress level and environment can affect our hormones, which makes hair loss more prominent. Ayoo! Just another reason to be stressed out – worrying about our own stress levels!

Now that you know the reasons why your hair might be shedding, we won’t leave you scared and end this article here. We got the solutions on how you can keep your mane beautiful forever..
