Three Reasons For Hair Loss

Hair Loss has become a big problem for many people. Both men and women are suffering from hair loss due to many reasons. The top three reasons are:

1. Stress

2. Iron deficiency

3. Hormonal.

You ask yourself "how can I control stress"? Find something you can do or say when you start feeling stressed out. For example you might want to take 10 to 15 out of your day to stretch, exercise or meditate. Reflect on all the good things in your life. Sing, dance, laugh! Think about all you have accomplished thus far. You will feel better.

Iron deficiency can be corrected by taking vitamins or eating green vegetables like spinach and bok Choy. These two vegetables are rich in minerals and vitamins, iron, beta carotene, folate and vitamin C, they help to keep hair follicles healthy and scalp oils circulating.

As women get older our hormones get out of balance. This causes mood swings, weigh gain, hair loss just to mention a few things. Try getting more sleep, change your diet, avoid alcohol and caffeine and artificial sweeteners. Exercise at least three times per week. Again, try to reduce your stress level. Last but not least, see your Doctor if you have questions or concerns.

Getting my hair done as a little girl

There is nothing like getting your hair done! Ever since I was a little girl, I loved getting my hair done. I could remember on Sundays my mother calling me while I was playing outside with my friends to tell me it was time to get my hair done. Back in the day, it was an all day ordeal. When you are young, black and without a relaxer, getting your hair done can be painful. Nevertheless, I didn't mind. I knew that I had to stand on a chair because I was too short to reach the sink. Bend over, then stick my head under the running faucet. That was my weekly ritual! Since we didn't have a blow dryer or hair dryer back in the day, my Mom would towel dry my hair, section it into 4 or 6 sections then braid it. I was left to run free until my hair dried. Once my hair dried, here came the pressing comb and grease . Even though I had the utmost trust in my Mother, I still squirmed and held my ears back when I felt the heat near my fac...
