Hello, why do I have excessive hair fall in summer? I am 22 years old female. I realized my hair fall is more excessive during summer than any other season why? I am worried. Is it normal to experience hair fall during summer? Please suggest some effective home remedies to treat it. Your suggestion will be helpful and also let me know what is the reason that causes hair fall during summer.

@dahlia Hello, The hot weather of summer makes your hair dry, brittle, and vulnerable to breakage, which is why your hair fall increases a bit in summer. The summer heat dehydrates your body, making your scalp dry and itchy. When you repeatedly scratch your scalp so hard, it can damage hair follicles or slows down hair growth which eventually makes your hair weak and thin. Here are a few things that you can try-
- Try massaging your hair with warm coconut oil
- Take a nutritious diet
- Drink more liquids to maintain body hydration
- Apply aloe vera juice to the hair
- Deep conditioning
- Keep your scalp clean and dry.
- Reduce using blowers or dryers to dry your hair and heat styling
- If your hair fall doesn’t reduce even after trying these remedies then please talk to your dermatologist as it can be a symptom of a disease like a thyroid. Thanks.
