The high humidity levels in the air during monsoon weaken the hair roots, making your hair more prone to breakage and fall.
Frequent exposure to rain can lead to fungal and bacterial infections on the scalp, which can weaken hair roots and cause hair fall.
Humidity causes frizziness, leading to more tangles and knots. Excessive brushing to detangle can result in more hair fall.
During monsoon, you may wash your hair more often to feel fresh, but this strips away natural oils, leaving your scalp dry and your hair brittle.
The monsoon diet often lacks essential nutrients like iron, zinc, and vitamins, which are crucial for healthy hair growth, leading to increased hair fall.
The gloomy weather can elevate stress and anxiety levels, which are directly linked to hair fall. Stress causes the hair follicles to enter the resting phase prematurely, leading to more shedding.
