How Your Weight Loss Journey Can Seriously Impact Your Hair

Eugene Park Views  

As we approach the increasingly warm summer season, many people might hastily start their diets. With the onset of hot summer, as the clothing gets lighter and more people plan summer activities like swimming, many begin to lose weight. We cannot ignore the relationship between maintaining a slim figure through a lifelong commitment to dieting and the pain caused by hair loss, for which there is no definitive cure.

An unhealthy diet can lead to hair loss, resulting in unhealthy weight loss. While dieting, specific exercises, and extreme dieting can cause hair loss. So, today, let’s look at the relationship between dieting and hair loss.

Does dieting cause hair loss?

So, does dieting directly cause hair loss? It’s not entirely incorrect to say that dieting directly causes hair loss. When dieting, it’s wise to set a target weight based on your current weight and follow a proportionate diet plan. A person who weighs 80kg losing 10kg and a person who weighs 50kg losing 10kg are different in terms of the weight loss percentage. Thus, the latter has a higher chance of experiencing hair loss.

Therefore, excessive dieting can cause hair loss, which occurs more frequently in women. Extreme dietary control interrupts essential nutrient supply and negatively impacts hair growth.

How do you diet without causing hair loss?

The method to diet while preventing hair loss is simple. It’s all about exercising. While dieting, if you exercise more than you eat, you can lose weight. But to prevent hair loss, you should slightly reduce or maintain your food intake while increasing physical activities like exercise.

Can hair loss caused by dieting be reversed by proper nutrition intake?

If you’ve already experienced hair loss due to excessive dieting, can you recover by reintroducing proper nutrition? Firstly, hair loss caused by dieting can be divided into two types: male-pattern baldness and telogen effluvium. Telogen effluvium can naturally recover over time, but if factors like male hormones cause hair loss, it is difficult to recover even with time.

In such cases, it’s best to consult a doctor. For women, most cases are telogen effluvium, so stopping the diet can lead to recovery
