Season change brings new weather conditions — humidity, dryness, or cold — and our hair reacts to these shifts.
Many people experience more hair fall during monsoon and winter. But why does it happen? Let’s find out.
Main Reasons for Seasonal Hair Fall
a. Weather Changes:
In humid or cold weather, scalp becomes oily or dry — both affect hair roots.
b. Vitamin D Deficiency:
Less sunlight exposure in winter reduces Vitamin D, which weakens hair follicles.
c. Hormonal Fluctuations:
Changing seasons can affect hormones and stress levels, increasing shedding.
d. Pollution & Dust:
Outdoor air during seasonal change can damage hair health.
e. Poor Diet & Water Intake:
Seasonal eating habits or dehydration reduce hair nourishment.
Tips to Control Hair Fall Naturally:
- Use mild, sulfate-free shampoo
- Oil your scalp twice a week
- Eat protein-rich foods (eggs, sprouts, nuts)
- Drink enough water
- Avoid frequent hair coloring or heat styling
