Aside from hormonal changes, stress, medical conditions, and heredity, hair fall can also come from two main reasons. One being a lack of scalp care, after all, we know that healthy hair starts with a healthy scalp.

The other reason being your hair is too dry and damaged, which can lead to hair breakage and even hair fall .

Dry hair is more likely to break and fall off. Routines like using heat-reliant styling tools like hairdryer , straightener, or curling wands can also weaken the hair shaft. This dries the hair more and makes it prone to breakage and hair fall.
