Why Does My Hair Fall Out When I Wash It?
You might be alarmed to see your hair fall out during washing. However, usually, there’s no need to fret over your wet tresses. It’s perfectly normal to lose about 50 to 80 strands of hair a day. While this number varies by day and every person, there may be underlying health issues if hair loss is excessive. But for most people, gentle care will keep your hair fall at a minimum.
Nature
Hair fall is a natural occurrence. Each hair strand grows from a sac called the hair follicle. A hair follicle has a lifespan of approximately four to five years. Follicles undergo an innate life cycle that consists of three phases. These are growth, resting and shredding. On the final year, the follicle enters the resting cycle and stops growing. When hair strands fall, a new growth cycle follows. About 90 percent of your hair follicles are in the growth phase while a small percentage is intended to fall at a given time.
Myth
You may notice hair strands coming off easily after massaging your hair with shampoo and conditioner. If you are using hair products with no harsh chemicals, then you can be assured that the shredding is bound to happen. The process just becomes more apparent because weak hair shreds faster when it is wet and stimulated by your massaging. It’s also normal to lose strands even while combing or doing other activities other than washing or showering. Daily washing is not the cause of hair fall.
Damages
Harsh conditions, such as heat from blow-drying and the use of hot water, and chemicals can cause damage to the scalp and hair roots, triggering excessive hair fall. The frequent use of chemicals such as hair straighteners and sprays blocks the natural flow of oxygen and nutrients from the roots. Hard scrubbing of your hair can disrupt hair follicles on the rest and growth phases. Anything done or used excessively can be harmful to your hair. Even hard water like borewell water can damage the hair.
Precaution
If you exceed the estimated number of normal hair loss, it’s better to investigate further. Excessive and unnecessary shredding of hair can be due to factors such as stress, diet and illnesses. Abnormal hair loss can also be attributed to the overproduction of the hormone called DHT (dihydrotestosterone) created by the enzyme 5-alpha-reductase which impedes the natural hair growth cycle. Such occurrence is believed to contribute to the permanent hair loss condition known as alopecia.
