Why do hair fall out? Is it true that they grow faster when they are often cut? Do the hair get dirty from the paint?.

Women always have a lot of questions about their hair, despite the advice of the best girlfriends and grandmother's recipes.

And here's what professional trichologists and stylists think about hair.

Myth: If you cut hair more often, they grow faster.

In fact: Hair grows an average of 1. 3 cm per month, no matter how often they are cut. In summer, their growth is more intensive due to activation of hormonal processes in the body. But even if the hair is long and does not need constant correction, it is still necessary to visit the beauty salon from time to time in order to cut off split ends.

Myth: Hair density is inherited.

In fact: In most cases, this quality is inherited by the maternal line. Much less likely to make themselves known paternal genes: on the part of the father, for example, can be inherited baldness.

Myth: Bald men are especially sexy.

In fact: Excess testosterone can really provoke hair loss in men. But this does not mean that every man with a bald head is necessarily a sex giant.

Myth: Hair loss is the result of stress.

In fact: We daily lose from 50 to 120 hair, regardless of anything. However, emotional shocks can increase hair loss. In addition, hair loss can result from pregnancy or antibiotic treatment. They start growing again a few weeks after the stress. But if there is a predisposition to baldness, then new hair grows thinner.

Myth: Because of headdresses hair falls out more strongly.

In fact: For healthy hair, it is important to provide normal oxygen supply, which the hair follicles receive from the bloodstream. Caps on this process does not affect.

Myth: Lean diet is harmful to hair.

In fact: Hair beauty can only suffer in extreme cases of malnutrition. With a genetic predisposition, too lean a diet can increase hair loss. But the same stress affects the hairstyle much more than a meager diet.

Myth: Drying the hair dryer makes the hair rare.

In fact: As such, drying hair with a hair dryer does not cause them to fall out. But their beauty and health can suffer from hot air. In the process of natural everyday loss, weaker hair appears instead of the lost ones.

Myth: With short hair, the hair looks thicker.

In fact: Hair at the base is really denser than at the ends. After shearing, they look more dense, but this effect lasts only for several days.

Myth: Shampoos need to be changed.

Actually: You need to change shampoos if you use daily styling products (especially those containing wax). Once in ten days you will need an effective cleansing shampoo that will allow you to wash off the rest of the stowage products.

Myth: To make your hair really clean, you need to soap it even twice.

In fact: It is enough and one time.

Myth: It is impossible to squeeze out gray hairs.

In fact: Really can not, but for another reason. First of all, because in this way it is possible to infect and damage the roots.

Myth: The main enemy of hair is paint.

In fact: Some modern dyes contain air conditioners that make hair more well-groomed.

Myth: The cutting ends of the hair can be "glued", picking up a good remedy.

In fact: You can solve the problem of split ends only by cutting them off. Silicone or beeswax smooths the damaged ends only for a while.

Myth: You need to comb your hair as often as possible.

In fact: Intense combing promotes hair loss and weakens individual hairs. Use the comb to do the styling, but not more.
