In daily life, many people have the habit of washing their hair every day. But after washing my hair, I was so tired that I fell asleep without even having time to wipe it clean, thinking that this would not have any effect on my body. There are even some people who think that since they have to dry it anyway, sleeping wet now can make themselves cooler? In fact, sleeping with wet hair is very harmful to the body. So what harm will this bad habit bring to the human body? The dangers of sleeping with wet hair 1. May induce facial paralysis Wet hair may seem harmless, but if we live this way for a long time, it will cause great risks to our health. Facial paralysis, scientifically known as facial nerve paralysis, is a common and frequently occurring disease that is not limited by age. The common symptoms are facial paralysis and eye deviation, and patients are often unable to complete even the most basic movements such as raising eyebrows, closing eyes, and puffing out lips. Don't underestimate wet hair. Many health problems are caused by not paying attention to the details of life. Why does washing your hair cause facial paralysis? Doctors believe that the facial nerves are at their most relaxed and have the lowest resistance when you are sleeping at night. If they are stimulated by the cold of wet hair, it can easily affect the facial nerves behind the ears, causing local spasms and inducing facial paralysis. It may not be so obvious in the summer when the weather is warm, but in the winter when the weather is cold, the chance of facial paralysis is very high. 2. Promotes gray hair The appearance of some white hair is also the result of such an unhealthy lifestyle. We should pay attention to our healthy living in life. I guess no beautiful woman wants to have unsightly white hair growing in her thick black hair, but this may be related to sleeping with wet hair. Night is the time when hormone secretion in the body is most active, and melanocyte-stimulating hormone can make the body secrete more melanin. When you go to sleep, because your hair is still wet and in a cold state, melanin is difficult to secrete. Over time, your hair will turn white. 3. Hairstyles that damage hair Such unhealthy living habits will seriously affect our hair quality and cause serious health risks to our lives. Sleeping with wet hair is naturally a devastating blow to your hairstyle! When you wake up the next morning, your hair will be a mess, inevitably tangled, and impossible to cut or untangle. Why? Because when you sleep, your hair will generate friction and compression, and it can easily be bent into various shapes. Once the hair is dry, its softness decreases, and it is fixed, which becomes a big problem that cannot be solved by just combing. Moreover, in this situation, it is more likely to cause hair breakage and damage hair quality during combing. Even more seriously, a lot of hair will fall out. 4. Causes headaches Headaches are also caused by bad living habits, and hair is also the root cause of this situation. This may be the experience of many people. If you go to bed with wet hair, you will wake up the next day with a significant headache and feel less energetic. This is because the moisture in the scalp is constantly evaporating and taking away the heat from the brain, which makes it easy for cold air to invade your scalp, naturally causing headaches. 5. Causes colds An unhealthy lifestyle can also cause colds. You may wonder why you have a cold. In fact, you will have this feeling. In addition to headaches, going to bed with wet hair may also lead to a cold. Because the moisture in the hair makes the head cold, it also affects other parts of the body, causing reduced local resistance, and then being infected by bacteria and causing a cold. 6. Bacteria grow on pillows The growth of bacteria is also the root cause of disease. In your life, you should pay attention to your healthy lifestyle and make reasonable life arrangements. Pillows are kept indoors for a long time and are prone to breeding bacteria. If you go to bed with wet hair, the moisture from the wet hair will penetrate into the pillow core. Over time, the pillow core will naturally turn yellow. The materials of pillows that people often sleep on are easily susceptible to moisture and mold. A humid environment is more conducive to the growth of bacteria. In this way, the pillow becomes a bacterial incubator, and the harm can be imagined. |
