Most women have beautiful long hair. Long hair is beautiful, and whether it is draped over the shoulders or tied up, it can show the feminine charm. Ponytail hairstyle is the most common hairstyle for women because it is simple, easy to learn and never goes out of style. But the editor here would like to remind girls who like to tie their hair into ponytails that keeping a ponytail that is too tight for a long time can easily cause headaches or hair loss. Ponytail girl, please untie your hair According to Weibo, wearing a ponytail all the time can cause hair loss, because researchers found in a survey in South Africa that about one-third of women suffer from traction alopecia due to long-term excessive pulling of the hair. In this regard, some doctors suggest that women should wear ponytails less often or try different hairstyles. Be gentle when combing your hair, and try not to use nylon combs and brushes, as they can easily generate static electricity and irritate the hair and scalp. Yesterday, Zhang Jingdong, chief physician of the Department of Dermatology at Zhongda Hospital, told reporters that clinically, there are relatively few such patients, but there is indeed a type of alopecia called "traction alopecia", which is mainly caused by long-term traction of hair, and its occurrence is related to the patient tying his hair into a certain hairstyle. Tying a ponytail is one of them. The areas where hair loss occurs mainly above the forehead and on the temples. She once treated an 8-year-old girl whose hair was very thick elsewhere on her body, except on her forehead, where the hair was relatively sparse. Her mother was worried. How could the little girl, who was less than 10 years old, lose so much hair? After consultation, Zhang Jingdong found no other reason and it was mainly caused by tying her hair too tightly. He suggested that she cut her hair short. After a period of time, the little girl stopped losing her hair. Hair loss in working women is also related to male hormones Have you noticed that many urban women nowadays find that a lot of hair is falling out when they wake up? Zhang Jingdong said that in addition to genetic factors, this is also closely related to work pressure. Foreign scholars believe that working women often have more male hormones in their blood than housewives. Just as dangerous situations fill the body with adrenaline, competitive workplace stress increases the amount of male hormones in the blood. This male hormone is related to emotional excitement and mental stress. Too much male hormone can cause male pattern baldness in women, in which the hair becomes thinner. Mental stress can affect the hair follicles, muscles, nerves and skin, causing the micro-capillaries that supply nutrients to the hair follicles to contract, thus limiting the amount of oxygen and nutrients reaching the hair. Under long-term and continuous mental stress, the contraction of the arrector pili muscles and the blood vessels that supply oxygen and nutrients will cause hair loss. Mental stress can also affect the sebaceous glands, causing them to increase oil secretion. During menopause, women's hormone balance is disrupted, and their hair follicles receive conflicting signals from the hormonal chaos. For many women, as their ovaries cease to function, the hormone balance temporarily shifts to a higher level of androgens, causing a type of hair loss similar to male pattern baldness. |
