1. Reasons for long hair falling out
1. Eating disorders
Many white-collar workers completely forget three meals a day due to their busy work, and even forget the nutrition they need to take every day. Such a reduction in food intake will lead to a decrease in blood flow to the scalp, which in turn affects the normal growth of hair, and in severe cases can cause hair to lose luster or even fall out. Therefore, maintaining a balanced diet and consuming more protein is critical to preventing hair loss. Hair is made up of protein, and when follicle protein is at its lowest, it’s especially important to consume more protein. In addition, the diet should be rich in vitamins, zinc and essential fatty acids.
2. Severe anemia
Lack of vitamin C, intake of caffeine or alcoholic beverages, is not conducive to iron absorption. Drinking juice and eating iron-rich foods is recommended to restore hair growth.
3. Polycystic ovary syndrome
Women with polycystic ovary syndrome experience thinning hair on the forehead and crown of the head due to excess male hormones. This mostly occurs in patients with a family history of hair loss. If the patient loses hair on the head, the hair on the face and body grows wildly. Androgen-lowering drugs and blood-flow-boosting scalp massages can help a patient's hair regrow.
4. Thyroid disease
The first symptom of a thyroid disorder is hair loss. Too much or too little thyroid hormone can affect metabolism and normal hair growth. Since all hair follicles are affected, hair loss is not a localized phenomenon. Using medication and other treatments can help relieve this condition. To restore the hair to its original state, it is best to consume more protein and do a head massage every morning.
5. Stress syndrome

Stress can cause premature hair growth in Chinese. The body releases various hormones under stress, which can affect the absorption of B vitamins and affect the pigmentation of hair. Stress syndrome can lead to hair loss - the body's immune system mistakenly attacks scalp cells, causing large patches of hair to fall out. Both mental relaxation and taking B-complex vitamins can improve premature graying.

Second, the method to get rid of hair loss
1. Trim your hair regularly.
Harmful substances in the air can tarnish your hair, and mental stress can make your hair brittle. It is recommended to trim your hair properly every once in a while to help it continue to grow.
2. Avoid high water temperature when bathing.
Too hot water can open up the pores and completely flush the oil from the scalp, making the hair follicles more susceptible to damage and causing hair to break or fall out more easily. The water temperature should be around 40 degrees Celsius, and the temperature should not be too high when drying your hair.
3. Eat more protein.
High-protein foods like egg whites, lean meats, milk, and tofu are all hair favorites. In addition, it is best to eat 1 teaspoon of flaxseed oil 3 times a week, and the phytoestrogens in it can prevent hair loss.
4. When hair loss, use a wide-tooth comb to comb your hair.
Do not use a small comb or share one with others.
5. Do not use too much force when combing wet hair.
When the hair is wet, it is easier to pull the roots or comb it repeatedly. You should comb the ends lightly first, and then comb from the top down. Don't brush your hair too often, or you will increase your chances of split ends and hair loss.
6. Eat less high-calorie junk food.
High-calorie junk food can lead to undernutrition in the hair, making it more prone to breakage and hair loss. It is recommended to eat more fish rich in amino acids and fatty acids, choose fresh dark green vegetables, and often eat nuts and whole grains such as almonds, peanuts, and walnuts.
7. Do not use conditioner on the scalp.

Conditioner should be used on the hair, not the scalp. When using, it should be applied from the hair next to the ear to the ends of the hair, and leave it for 1-2 minutes before washing.

8. Massage the scalp.
Massaging your scalp with essential oils can help increase hair nourishment, but if you have dandruff or have already lost your hair, you should avoid using essential oils, which can aggravate dandruff and hair loss.
9. Don't always have your hair up.
Always wearing a ponytail will make your hair elongated for a long time, making it easier to lose hair.
10. Actively exercise.
Exercise improves the quality of your hair and scalp, as well as improves blood circulation and relieves stress (which is also a major cause of hair loss).
11. Don't do perm and dye together.
Hair needs a certain rest period to recover after dyeing and perming, so you should avoid dyeing and perming at the same time.
12. Supplement iron.
Iron deficiency can cause a lot of hair loss. It is recommended to eat more yellow-green vegetables and fruits, such as spinach, soybeans, etc., to supplement iron.
13. Ensure adequate water intake.
Not drinking enough water can dry out the scalp and hair, leading to hair loss.
14. Avoid exposing your hair to the sun.
Excessive exposure to UV rays can cause damage to the hair and cause hair loss. Wear a sun hat when going out in strong sunlight.
15. Quit smoking.
Smoking reduces blood flow to the scalp and increases the risk of hair loss.
