If you keep straining your hair by applying pressure through consistent hair styles then this may be one of the greatest contributors to hair loss. The continued stress upon hair follicles is known as traction alopecia and may be triggered by pigtails or cornrows.
Distinct hair styles can even result in scarring of the scalp and so changing around your hairstyle may be one of the best ways to help your hair growth recover. Perms, hot oil treatments or blow drying can further extend the damage.

Pregnancy impacts Hormones and Hair Loss
Posted by New Flag UK onBoth men and women typically lose around 50 to 100 hairs a day- this is part of the natural ‘hair follicle cycle’. Initially, the hair enters the anagen stage which leads to hair growth but then transitions into the exogen phase where hair actively sheds to allow for new growth. When paired with pregnancy: hair loss can be accelerated due to significant changes in hormone levels. Furthermore, during gestation, endogenous substances are present inside the body which can result in changes to the hair follicle cycle.
