What should I do if my hair loss is serious in autumn and winter?
1, scalp cleaning is very important.
When the scalp becomes fragile and hair loss is obvious, cleaning is more important. Dermatologists suggest that the scalp should be clean but not excessive, and avoid using shampoo with too strong cleaning power. Use less oily hair care moisturizing products. If the scalp is too greasy, it may cause hair follicle blockage, which is even more unfavorable for hair growth. Some people worry that shampooing will accelerate hair loss. In fact, most of the washed hair has fallen out. The stylist even suggested blowing against the hair roots when drying hair, and changing the position of parting line frequently, so as not to make the hair look thinner and thinner.
Don't wash your hair with too hot water.
It's getting cold, so pay attention to the water temperature of washing your hair. Too hot water will hurt the scalp and lead to hair loss. It is best to control the water temperature of shampoo at about 40 degrees. The drying method after washing your hair is also very important. The air outlet of the hair dryer should be more than 0/5 cm away from the hair/kloc-to avoid hot air damaging the hair.
3. Eat the right things and stay up late.
Hair and scalp keratin contain amino acids, so we should eat more foods rich in protein amino acids, such as eggs, milk, lean meat, etc., to avoid scalp aging, and add more dark green vegetables and fruits, which are rich in vitamin C, which will help to resist oxidation and maintain scalp health. In addition, psychological stress and abnormal work and rest are also one of the reasons for hair loss. Please relax and go to bed early if you have nothing to do. This is the most correct way to raise your hair.

Vitamins are the main components of hair growth, most of which are needed for hair growth, among which vitamin B2, vitamin B6, vitamin E and vitamin A are the most important.

Vitamin A mainly comes from animal liver, carrots and dark vegetables, while vitamin C mainly comes from fresh fruits and vegetables.

How to prevent hair loss in autumn and winter
First, scalp moisturizing
Scalp likes humidity, and is most afraid of dryness, which is also the reason why scalp sweat glands are densely covered. We all sweat on our heads and control the temperature and humidity of our scalp by evaporation. So wash more and moisturize more. But this time the washing is very particular. First of all, you can't control the oil strongly. Because once the oil is controlled, the scalp has no oil protection. After scalp washing 1 or 2 hours, it will be very dry, and even lead to chapping, increased dandruff and itchy head. Moreover, body function can regulate sweat glands to accelerate secretion. In other words, the more oil is controlled, the more sweat glands are secreted. After all, oil control only dissolves fat by chemical methods, which can melt the cell wall in principle and is harmful to cells. So in autumn and winter, we are mainly wet-headed, and nothing happens. Wipe your hair with wet towel in the morning and evening. Increase scalp humidity.
Second, reducing fat and nourishing.
Due to the change of seasons and the cold weather, the consumption suddenly increases, prompting us to consume more energy and store it in the body for consumption. At this time, it is necessary to avoid fat accumulation and increase the proportion of nutrients in the body. The nutrition mentioned here refers to vitamins and mineral elements. Because other nutrients are found in most foods. And these two kinds, relatively few, have limited absorption in the body. Autumn and winter consume a lot, and if it is not replenished in time, it is likely to affect hair growth. These two categories are mainly supplemented by fruits and nuts. In ancient times, I talked about eating nuts such as walnuts, hazelnuts and pine nuts in autumn and winter. On the one hand, it is seasonal. In addition, endocrine disorders are more likely in autumn and winter, and eating more fruits and nuts can quickly alleviate them.
Third, increase exercise.
It is cold in autumn and winter, and everyone's activities are reduced. Because the scalp is at the highest place in the human body, blood pressure is generally low and blood flow is less. The scalp can't move, and the body fat content tends to rise in autumn and winter, and the blood fat is high, which affects the blood flow and is not good for hair growth. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the amount of exercise and do more exercise in autumn and winter. Like handstand, yoga, strenuous indoor exercise, etc. It can make the scalp get more blood and is very helpful for hair growth. In addition, you can also use some vegetables and medicinal materials that promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, such as safflower and Chuanqiong, which can improve the circulation effect.
