STRESS RELATED HAIR LOSS? GET YOUR HAIR BACK FAST!

Stress is a emotional and physical reaction that we normally experience in upsetting or dangerous events. It is really normal for our bodies to react if we sense danger, whether it’s real or fiction. Of course, there are diverse degrees of stresses, like the pressure being felt in work trying to finish a dead line or competition with other office mates.

Stress is part of our daily lives, but too much of it isn’t good for health. Too much stress could cause all sorts of bodily changes and this can cause hyperacidity, high blood pressure, heart attack or a stroke. But did you know that stress can also increase hair fall and cause baldness.

Asians, especially Singaporeans blame stress for their thinning hair and hair loss. Stress induced hair loss causes sudden increased hair fall called telogen effluvium. Every time someone experience extreme or prolong exposure to stress, for some reason, all of the hair follicles enters the telogen phase of the hair growth cycle. Normally, only 10% of hair are at the telogen phase and the majority are at the anagen phase or growth phase. Telogen phase or resting phase is time where hair falls out.

Telogen effluvium is also commonly experienced with women who have just given birth due to the stress of labor and blood loss. This disorder is also seen in extreme dieters, malnourished individuals or those who are about to experience a major operation.

Fortunately, this type of hair loss is only temporary. Once the stressful event has passed or you have learned to conquer your stress, hair will eventually grow back. But if you want to grow hair faster and get your hair sooner, then it is advisable to use a nutrient rich shampoo and conditioner like FAST.
