Consuming excessive amounts of sugar can negatively impact hair health in several ways: 1. Hormonal Imbalances : High sugar intake can lead to insulin resistance, which may disrupt hormonal balance. Elevated insulin levels can increase androgen production, potentially leading to hair thinning or hair loss, especially in individuals with a predisposition to androgenetic alopecia. 2. Reduced Nutrient Absorption : Sugar can deplete essential nutrients like vitamins and minerals (e.g., zinc, biotin, and vitamin E) that are crucial for healthy hair growth.

The Slip Test • Run your fingers up a strand of hair from the tip to the root. • Low porosity: Hair feels smooth, indicating tightly closed cuticles. • Medium porosity: Hair feels slightly textured, indicating healthy cuticles. • High porosity:...
