How to Conceal Hair Loss Following Pregnancy
Many women suffer from gradual or sudden hair loss after
pregnancy, known as Postpartum Alopecia.
Hair loss after pregnancy is seen at different times; it could
be after parturition or after nursing stops. It is common for
women to get startled when seeing clumps of hair coming out
during a shower or brushing their hair. Most of these women will
experience hair loss some time after pregnancy- up to around six
months after childbirth.
Hair loss after pregnancy is primarily due to the fact that a
woman's body is nourishing the newborn rather than her hair.
Usually, around 85-95% of your hair is in the growth stage at
any time, but hormonal shifts during pregnancy encourage an
increase in the percentage of hairs in the growth phase.
Consequently, many women benefit from thicker hair during
pregnancy, as more hairs than normal are growing and a smaller
amount than normal are shedding. There are numerous hair style
techniques suitable for new mothers. One of the options for
keeping hair attractive is using volumizing tonic. These types
of treatments are water-based and alcohol-free. To use, shower,
then towel dry your hair, spray the tonic 3 times on the top and
sides of your head, bend at the waist and spray another few
shots at the underside of your hair. Style as usal and expect
good
volume, shiny hair.
Another idea to correct hair loss after pregnancy is to go for a
better cut or new hair style. Some women prefer to get a shorter
haircut or one that involves less maintanance. Consider having a
few highlights woven in around your face line to highlight
facial features.
You can choose hair accessories such as temporary hair
extensions that can be taped with a special kind of tape right
onto your existing hair. The temporary hair extensions last for
several days and then can be safely removed with a solution that
comes with them. Finally, stylish scarves or headbands are the
perfect fit for areas of hair loss near the temple, or over the
ears and around the hairline, which is where most of the
post-partum loss is seen.
By adopting these styling tricks, temporary hair loss after
pregnancy can easily be handled for attending any evening event
with your new born. And rest assured that your hair's growth
cycle will usually return to normal within a year after the
birth of your child.
