Tips to reduce hair loss in dry season

1. Why does dry season cause hair loss?

Hair loss is a common occurrence for most people. Typically, people lose about 50 to 100 hairs a day. This may seem like a lot, but it is insignificant compared to the 100,000 hair follicles on your head.

Currently, the climate is gradually changing to winter, the outdoor temperature decreases, the dryness is a good condition for hair loss. The reason is that this climate makes the scalp unable to secrete its own oil to care for it, leading to dry, brittle, broken hair.

However, seasonal hair loss is usually short-lived and the amount of hair loss is small. If the amount of hair loss is large, it may be due to a medical condition that requires a specific examination at a medical facility.
