Thus, any problem that affects her hair has terrible consequences on the woman overall appearance. Hair fall is one of the most annoying obstacles to the beauty and the health of the hair. Several studies have found that a significant proportion of women complain from hair fall that is due to breakage and weak hair.
So what causes hair fall?
Hair fall is due to several reasons that vary from one person to another. Hair fall could be caused by:
• Hereditary factors.
• Natural factors: the weather the environment.
• An unhealthy diet that lacks necessary vitamin for healthy hair.
• Hair coloration, brushing and combing
• Hormonal trouble or anemia
• Excessive stress or other health problems
Hair Natural Defense System
Luckily, our hair is naturally quite strong. And this is thanks to its cross section. It starts with the cuticles, which form the first line of defence against damage like overlapping roof tiles they provide between 4 and 10 layers of protective Coating. Then, the inside of the hair shaft is made up of lots of little fibres bound together like rope. This gives hair its strength and makes it quite hard to break.
However, if the cuticle is damaged, chipped, or lifted off, and the many layers are worn away, the inside structure is left exposed and vulnerable. The inside fibres then fall apart and unravel. This can be at any point of the hair length, but if it starts at the end of the hair this causes a split end which, like a snagged jumper, starts to unravel further up the hair shaft, and the end result? Hair weakness and breakage.
