Female hair loss is usually much more traumatic than would be the case with men losing hair. For starters, there are many men who have embraced baldness and there are those who now even readily associate it with attractiveness in men.
Charismatic celebrities who are bald have helped promote this view. This includes the likes of cinema icons like Van Diesel, Sean Connery and Bruce Willis and sports personalities like wrestler Stone Cold Steve Austin, Footballer Zenedine Zidane and tennis legend Andre Agassi.
So while hair loss may even be desirable to some men, the same cannot be said for most women. In actual fact, the vast majority of women end up with severe psychological problems such as anxiety, social phobia, depression and even serious identity change problems.
There are of course those who adapt to the change very well and wear a hairpiece, wig or toupee. Many women to deal effectively with hair loss have used wigs of artificial or natural hair made to resemble a typical hairstyle. The major stumbling block is that wigs vary widely in quality and cost and some of the best can cost tens of thousands of dollars.
So what are the most common reasons for women losing their hair? Top on the list are traumatic events and episodes like child birth, major surgery, severe stress and poisoning. Hairlessness caused by these factors is referred to as telogen effluvium. It is also widely recognized that some mycotic infections can cause serious loss of hair.
Some times plain old carelessness can also be a cause. Like in the condition found commonly with people who prefer to wear ponytails or cornrows as their constant hair style. Many times in this styling, the hair is pulled back or into position with excessive force. The hair loss that results here is a type called traction alopecia.
Thus the first tip on how to avoid hair loss is to be careful not to pull too strongly on your hair, constantly and secondly to avoid stress related situations. Just doing these two things will help a great deal in halting possible loss of hair in women.
But there are admittedly many times when hairlessness is caused by other factors beyond the sufferer's control. In this case it is advisable to shun all other treatments other than genuine natural hair remedies. Not only will you cut down dramatically on the risk of side effects or allergic reactions, but chances of them being effective greatly increase when the remedy is natural.
It is for this reason that there is really no reason to despair and panic when you find yourself suddenly faced with massive hair loss even if you are a woman.
