Nevertheless, this fact does not change that external factors also play a huge role in hair loss.<\/p>\n<p>In the age of stress, busy work pace, digitalization and fast food, the question is not whether your hair has been damaged by environmental factors, but how much. In addition, some diseases can also cause <a href=\"https:\/\/www.smilehairclinic.com\/en\/sapphire-hair-transplantation\/\">hair loss<\/a>. Before you start to lose and weaken your hair, we want to share some basic rules that can enliven your hair with a few fine touches in your daily routine.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Do_Not_Soak_Too_Often\"><\/span><strong>1. Do Not Soak Too Often<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>When the hair comes into contact with water, it swells from the inside and forces the cuticle out. Repeated wetting causes the hair strand to curl and break.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2Proper_Shampoo_Selection_And_Use\"><\/span><strong>2.Proper Shampoo Selection And Use<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The idea that the more shampoo you apply on your head, the cleaner it will be is wrong. Shampoo should be applied to your scalp, not to the ends of your hair. When the hair is washed, the shampoo flows down your hair and the ends are cleared.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3Do_Not_Dry_Your_Hair_with_A_Hair_Dryer\"><\/span><strong>3.Do Not Dry Your Hair with A Hair Dryer<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Press the cool air button on your machine while drying your hair. Hot air seriously damages your wires, causing breaks, bends and split ends.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4Scalp_Cleaning_And_Care\"><\/span><strong>4.Scalp Cleaning And Care<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Scalp cleaning and care is an issue that is not taken seriously in our daily life. Scalp cleaning and care prevents clogging and inflammation of hair follicles. Thus, thinning and damage to the hair is prevented. One of the most ideal methods for scalp cleansing is dandruff shampoo. It can be used even if you do not have dandruff problem.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5Comb_Your_Hair_Gently\"><\/span><strong>5.Comb Your Hair Gently<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Gently comb your hair once a day with a soft comb. Do not comb your hair harshly, as this will scratch the scalp and damage your hair.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6Wash_Your_Hair_Often_For_Your_Own_Type\"><\/span><strong>6.Wash Your Hair Often For Your Own Type<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>For those with dry hair, the best frequency for washing hair is 2-3 times a week. Your scalp produces natural oils and substances that coat every strand of hair. These oils nourish, soften and protect your hair.<\/p>\n<p>With each wash, these are cleaned with the effect of the ingredients in the shampoo and the natural protection of your hair is removed. If you wash it every day, use the shampoo every 2-3 days and clean the other days with pure water only.<\/p>\n<p>People with oily hair need washing every day and there is no harm in that.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7Do_Not_Wash_Your_Hair_With_Hot_Water\"><\/span><strong>7.Do Not Wash Your Hair With Hot Water<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Hair should be washed with warm water. Hot water stimulates the production of extra oil from the hair follicles, damaging the scalp and hair.<br \/>\n<div class=\"lyte-wrapper\" style=\"width:853px;max-width:100%;margin:5px;\"><div class=\"lyMe hidef\" id=\"WYL_hIntXUldREo\"><div id=\"lyte_hIntXUldREo\" data-src=\"\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/hIntXUldREo\/maxresdefault.jpg\" class=\"pL\"><div class=\"tC\"><div class=\"tT\"><\/div><\/div><button tabindex=\"0\" class=\"play\"><\/button><div class=\"ctrl\"><div class=\"Lctrl\"><\/div><div class=\"Rctrl\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><noscript><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/hIntXUldREo\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/hIntXUldREo\/0.jpg\" alt=\"YouTube video thumbnail\" width=\"853\" height=\"460\" title=\"\"><br \/>Watch this video on YouTube<\/a><\/noscript><\/div><\/div><div class=\"lL\" style=\"max-width:100%;width:853px;margin:5px;\"><\/div><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"8Treat_Wet_Hair_Gently\"><\/span><strong>8.Treat Wet Hair Gently<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Do not dry your hair after washing and do not rub it with a towel. Gently drying your hair prevents damage and makes it dry faster.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"9Dont_forget_to_use_conditioner\"><\/span><strong>9.Don\u2019t forget to use conditioner<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>During hair washing, the structure of the outer part of the hair strands changes and becomes rough. The conditioner smooths it out and the ingredients in the shampoo rebalance the pH level of the hair that is causing the deterioration.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"10Use_Quality_Hair_Care_Products\"><\/span><strong>10.Use Quality Hair Care Products<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Today, the cosmetics sector is one of the sectors where the most money is spent. Be sure to check the ingredients of the products you use for your hair.<\/p>\n<p>Avoid these ingredients in products used for hair:<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 Sulphates- used in shampoos to create foam. They are strong skin irritants.<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 Parabens- preservative chemicals in cosmetics. They can cause impairment in hormone function and balance.<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 Phthalates- used for fragrance in cosmetic products. They are potential carcinogens.<\/p>\n<p>Useful ingredients for hair:<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 Vegetable oils- coconut, olive, jojoba, all have a moisturizing, strengthening effect. It also wraps and protects the hair strands.<\/p>\n<p>Hydrolyzed keratin- natural protein for skin and hair. It supports and treats damaged hair strands.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"11Eat_Enough_Protein_With_Your_Diet\"><\/span><strong>11.Eat Enough Protein With Your Diet<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Proteins are the main building blocks of our body. Eating a diet low in protein causes your hair to weaken and shed. Make sure you are getting enough protein every day for a healthy hair.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"12Take_Zinc_Supplements_When_Needed\"><\/span><strong>12.Take Zinc Supplements When Needed<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>If your hair is broken and has begun to fall out a lot, be sure to check your zinc levels. Increase the amount of vegetables, fruits and green salads you get in your diet. You can also take zinc-containing supplements by consulting your doctor.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"13Have_Hair_Stronger_Like_Iron\"><\/span><strong>13.Have Hair Stronger Like Iron<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Iron deficiency is the number one cause of hair loss, especially in women. Rapid correction of this situation, which can be detected with a simple blood test, allows the lost hair to be recovered. If this situation lasts for a long time, unfortunately the loss may be permanent. For this reason, red meat consumption is very important. If you do not consume enough red meat, you should definitely take supplementary food.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"14Control_Your_Thyroid_Hormones\"><\/span><strong>14.Control Your Thyroid Hormones<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Low levels of thyroid hormone are one of the biggest causes of hair loss, as well as disrupting the balance of the whole body.
