Weather Changes and Hair Loss

There are many causes of hair loss and the most common is genetic. However there are other less common causes of hair loss one of which is weather changes. In general there are some hair loss related to cold or warm weather that is associated with seasonal changes. In addition to normal daily hair loss of 50 to 100 strands per day, it is natural and healthy to lose more hair in warm weather or to experience more hair growth during the winter. However, weather changes occasionally contribute to unusual excessive hair loss.

During fall and winter seasons with cold, dry weather hair loss could worsen due to dietary changes, stress, or other factors. Cold air combined with the drying effects of central heat can result in brittle ends and fragile strands that break easily. If your hair is already damaged, the drying effect will further cause it to fall off. In addition, the cold weather can affect the overall health of your scalp and make the hair more brittle. To make the hair less brittle, hair masks and natural hair treatments could help.

As oppose to cold weather hair loss, losing hair during warm weather is usually normal. In the same way that many animals shed, it is normal for the human body to regulate temperature with the loss of unneeded extra hair. For some people though, the heat and intense summer sun can cause additional dryness on the scalp just like in the winter time. In both cold and warm conditions, if the scalp or the hair shaft is dry, the hair becomes brittle and start to fall off.
