Female Style Thinning Hair Loss

More hair has fallen out during the night. You brush your hair and end up pulling more hair out of your brush. Surgeries, severe illnesses and emotional stress can cause hair loss.

Hormonal changes are a common cause of hair loss. Female hair loss may also occur due to dieting. From a dermatologists's standpoint, however, the vitamins cannot prevent hair loss associated with rapid, significant weight loss.

There are ways to style thinning hair to help it look fuller. Many shampoos, conditioners, gels and mousses promise to increase hair volume, however they can only offer a short-term boost to the hair; they certainly won’t make hair grow back thicker.

Here are some styling tips for thinning hair.

Avoid longer hair styles as longer hair weighs more; as gravity pulls the hair down, more scalp will be exposed. To make bald patches less obvious, if you have dark hair and a light scalp, consider a lighter hair colour, and vice-versa. Don’t part the hair where there are bald spots.

As well as following these styling tips, it is worth considering a hair loss treatment programme. Minoxidil is the only hair loss product for women that has successfully undergone clinical trials and been proven to help prevent hair loss and restore hair.
