Now that spring is in full swing, you can expect your body to be going through some natural changes! The sunny weather will start to boost your energy levels, your seasonal allergies begin to flare up, your skin’s dryness will start to disappear, and sometimes your hair can go through different stages. Just like seasons change, your body also goes through seasons of change! More often during the fall months, September and October, and sometimes during the spring, April and May, your hair can go through something that is known as seasonal shedding.
Your hair goes through cycles of growth, transition, and rest where your hairs occasionally release and shed. Most of the time, this shedding goes unnoticed because when your hair goes through the shedding phase, your scalp is preparing for regrowth. If the shedding becomes excessive, you start to notice thinning hair, or your hair is falling out in patches or patterns, you may be suffering from a hair loss condition such as Androgenic Alopecia or Telogen Effluvium.
Seasonal hair loss is common in men, women, and even animals! Your hair is constantly going through seasons of change whether it’s due to pregnancy, hormone level changes, long periods of growth, moving to a new climate change, etc! The most important thing is that you continue to take care of your hair. Make sure to use natural ingredients, eat foods that promote hair growth, and get your hair cut often! If you still suffer with persisting season hair loss, it may benefit you to see a hair loss specialist.
