Sebum Contamination

A main reason of hair loss is the assortment of micro-pollutants, hair care product residues, and Sebum clogging your hair follicle access. Sebum is a greasy core produced by your skin. Sebum really plays an vital role in the health of your scalp, but overproduction of Sebum caused by stress (this is a major cause of hair loss in women) and a diet high in animal fat creates excess Sebum secretion. When the sebum leaves your underlying scalp layer, it reaches the surface of your scalp and mixes with the grime and hair care product residues.

Because the sebum is present on your scalp and exposed to air, it solidify (oxidizes) and creates a wide, black, tar like stuff. This hardened substance clogs your hair follicle access. The bacterium in this stuff damages the follicle and is one of the key causes of hair loss. (For those of you who do not know, the hair follicles are the millions of little canals in your scalp in which your hair grows from.) Continue reading ‘Women Hair Loss Causes’ »
