Now many girls complain about the deterioration of the hair structure, which becomes dry and brittle. But why this happens, and how to deal with the problem that has arisen, not every of them knows.

What is the reason for fragility?

Trichoclasia or brittle hair is a violation of the integrity of the hair follicles, which most often occurs as a result of a lack of subcutaneous fat. However, this is not always the case, sometimes the reasons can be completely different. For example, various diseases, the effects of nature, or the wrong diet. All possible reasons should be considered in more detail.

Diseases

Sometimes, as a result of a disease that has appeared, you can see that the hair has become brittle or dull. In addition, their growth slows down significantly. This can happen as a result of:

  • menopause in women, which is most often expressed by hypothyroidism;
  • the appearance of anemia that occurs in girls during pregnancy, after childbirth, or as a result of too strict diets;
  • pathological diseases of the digestive tract, as a result of which not only minerals, but also vitamins can be poorly absorbed - in this case, not only the hair looks worse, but also some areas of the skin;
  • kidney or liver disease;
  • when a person suffers from diabetes mellitus or any infectious diseases that suppress the immune system;
  • a disease such as anorexia, but in this case, not only brittle hair appears, but also the destruction of almost the entire body;
  • dehydration of the whole body when it does not have enough water, and the hair structure as a result becomes brittle.

Bad weather conditions

In the event of sudden changes in temperature or too dry air in the room, hair can become brittle, and their growth stops altogether.

Hair breakage can be caused by the wrong shampoo or hair mask. Therefore, when buying, it is best to pay attention to what type of hair the hair care products are intended for, as well as their components. It is best to select the funds that include herbs.

I believe that you need to wash your hair as it gets dirty, do not torment yourself or others)) Mesotherapy is probably an effective thing, but I'm afraid to do injections in the head while I manage with ordinary vitamins.

Yes, the injections somehow look scary ... ((But washing as it gets dirty is also not an option. Hair needs a certain regimen of the day, just like our whole body. There is a very simple, natural way to nourish your hair without masks, although masks also do not interfere when you have time for them ... Hair should be washed no more often than once every 5-10 days, so it becomes healthier - this if they are nourished by their own oils and fats and become stronger, and frequent washing removes natural lubrication and nutrition from the hair.Probably you have noticed that people who wash their hair daily or every other day have very thin and dry hair, and they believe all their lives that nature has deprived them ...?) In fact, it is they themselves who torment their hair ... But they are unable to wash less often, because they hate when their hair is greasy. It turns out a vicious circle ... I know a few people who listened to my advice: withstood the washing regime - Once a week, even at first they tried not to go out with dirty hair, but after a month everything worked out, the hair suddenly stopped being oily, and after six months it began to grow better, became thicker and stopped falling out. How many grateful words I heard later!) Listen to a professional!

Thanks for the recommendations. I just cut off the dry ends and began to take more vitamins.
