Hair is often seen as a symbol of beauty and vitality, but it can be disheartening when our once luscious locks lose their lustre and thickness. Although several factors contribute to hair and scalp health, hormonal influences play a significant role in the appearance and condition of our hair. Let's explore the fascinating link between hormones and hair health, shedding light on the impact of hormonal changes and offering insights into maintaining vibrant, resilient hair.
Understanding the Hair Growth Cycle:
Before delving into the hormonal impact on hair and scalp health, it's important to understand the basics of the hair growth cycle. The cycle consists of three phases: the anagen phase (growth), the catagen phase (transition) and the telogen phase (resting and shedding). Hormones regulate this cycle in a complicated way and ensure the proper growth, duration and shedding of hair.
