 We lose about 50-100 hairs from our head daily, but if it seems like you are losing more than usual, it's good to address it soon.  

Let's look at some ways you can either prevent or deal with it!

1. Dietary Supplements

Dietary supplements are your best ally. There are several supplements whose main action is the prevention and treatment of hair loss.

Remember: Before you start taking any supplement, it's good to consult your doctor!

2. Vitamins

The 5 vitamins that act against hair loss and help you strengthen your hair if it is weak or falling out are vitamins D, B7 (biotin), B12, E, and C.

3. Lotions

There are several lotions with anti-hair loss action, which strengthen the scalp and roots, enhancing the growth of new follicles. You can use them additionally to boost the protection of your hair.

4. Shampoo

Just like with lotions, you will also find special shampoos for hair loss. You can use them during the same period you apply your lotion, for a more comprehensive treatment!

Ampoules are a more specialized hair treatment and contain ingredients in a denser concentration than simple lotions.

Remember: Before choosing any lotion, ampoule, or shampoo, it is good to consult your dermatologist, in order not to weigh down your hair with too many products, but to choose the right treatment according to your needs.

7 effective tips to reduce it:

• Don’t wash your hair too often
• Limit straighteners and curling irons, as they burn and damage the hair
• Avoid dyeing your hair many times throughout the year

• Buy special care products against hair loss to help reduce the problem

Whatever the size of the problem you are facing with hair loss, remember to consult your doctor so that together you can find the right treatment with the right products!
