It is an expression of personality, symbolizes attractiveness and health, and even makes people. But it also fulfills important functions from a biological point of view. For example, it warms our head when it is cold and protects us from UV rays on sunny days. The number of hairs adorning our heads depends on our genetically determined color: brunettes and black-haired people have around 100,000, blondes up to 150,000, and redheads around 85,000 to 90,000. The fact that we lose a good 100 to 150 of our \"hair strands\" when we brush our hair every day is therefore easy to get over. After all, these are mostly old hairs anyway: a single hair can live for up to 7 years before it falls out and is replaced by a new one. However, if significantly more hair falls out than usual over a period of 6 to 8 weeks, we should pay more attention to our hair health and get to the bottom of the causes.  \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eClosely linked: hair and hormones\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e There are many possible reasons for hair loss. But our hormones often have a hand in it. In the case of hereditary hair loss, for example, medically known as androgenetic alopecia, the hair follicles are over-sensitive to the male hormone dihydrotestosterone. At around 95%, this is the most common cause of hair loss in men. Even in early adulthood, receding hairlines, thinning of the back of the head or bald patches are not uncommon sights. Women usually only become acquainted with testosterone and its effects later in life. When the hormonal balance changes during menopause, the ovaries produce less estrogen, which promotes hair growth, and the proportion of male hormones predominates in the body. Hair growth and hair roots are affected as a result. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIn addition, toxins and acids are no longer excreted with menstruation, but must be metabolized continuously. This requires minerals - which we then lack when it comes to supplying our hair.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMinerals, B vitamins and brushes\u003c\/strong\u003e  \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIn addition to hormonal fluctuations, e.g. after the birth of a child or due to hormone replacement therapy, psychological stress is also a known cause of hair loss. Under stress, our body restricts all non-essential functions. However, hair loss can also be caused by illness. In the case of circular hair loss (alopecia areata), an autoimmune disease or over-acidification of the body is suspected to be the cause. Diffuse hair loss, on the other hand, in which the hair thins out overall, is caused by a lack of nutrients. If we lack B vitamins or trace elements such as iron and zinc, this can promote hair loss. In addition to hormonal balance, well-groomed, full hair needs, above all, a sufficient supply of vital substances and targeted care products.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Hair Life Cycle\u003c\/strong\u003e  \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eEach hair is surrounded by structures that anchor it in the skin - the so-called follicles. The life cycle of the hair is divided into three phases. A healthy hair follicle goes through this cycle up to ten times\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003col style=\"text-align: left;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Anagen phase: The majority of our head hair is in this growth phase. It lasts 2-10 years. During this phase, the hair grows about 1\/3 mm per day or around 1 cm per month.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Catagen phase: A transition phase that lasts up to 14 days and in which the hair goes through a \"remodeling process.\" Since the supply of nutrients is lacking, growth stops. The hair root shrinks and becomes keratinized.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Telogen phase: The last part of the hair life cycle is when things calm down. After about 3-8 months, the hair falls out to make room for new hair in the follicle. The cycle begins again. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0460\/4880\/5028\/collections\/shutterstock_628321148-banner.jpg?v=1663848608","url":"https:\/\/weltapotheko.shop\/en\/collections\/gewusst-wie-good-hair-good-mood-good-day.oembed","provider":"Weltapotheke","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
