Reduce manipulation: Minimize heat styling, use gentler hair ties, and avoid excessive brushing. 2. Moisturize: Use a hydrating shampoo and conditioner, and consider a hair mask once or twice a week. 3. Protein treatment: Apply a protein-based treatment to help repair and strengthen your hair. 4.

Yes, some weight loss medications can potentially cause hair loss as a side effect, though this is not common. Hair loss may occur due to several factors related to these medications, including: 1. Nutrient Deficiencies : Weight loss medications that suppress appetite or alter how your body absorbs nutrients (e.g., orlistat) might lead to deficiencies in essential vitamins and minerals like biotin, zinc, iron, or protein, which are crucial for healthy hair growth. 2. Rapid Weight Loss : Significant or rapid weight loss itself, whether aided by medication or not, can trigger telogen effluvium , a temporary form of hair shedding caused by physical or emotional stress on the body. 3. Hormonal Changes : Some medications may indirectly affect hormone levels, which could impact hair growth cycles. 4. Specific Drug Effects : Certain medications, such as GLP-1 receptor agonists (e.g., semaglutide), may list hair loss as a rare side effect due to changes in metabolic o...
The density of hair appears to change when it’s in locs due to how the hair strands are structured and compacted in this style. Here’s a detailed breakdown: 1. Compression of Hair Strands • When forming locs, the hair strands are tightly coiled, twisted, and sometimes matted together. This compression reduces the amount of space the hair takes up, making the hair feel denser or heavier in the locked areas. 2. Accumulation of Shedded Hair • In loose hairstyles, shed hair falls out naturally. However, in locs, the shed hair remains trapped within the structure of the loc. Over time, this accumulation adds to the mass and density of each loc. 3. Reduction in Air Gaps • Loose or free-flowing hair has more space between strands, which gives it a lighter appearance and feel. Locs, by contrast, have much less space between the strands because the hair is tightly packed, creating the impression of increased density. 4. Hair Growth Over Time • As locs mature, more ...
