A large percentage (44%) of Singaporeans ranked hair loss as their top beauty concern in 2022. This statistic highlights the fact that hair and hair loss are crucial to feeling good about one’s appearance, and, consequently, one’s sense of self.

Hair grows in cycles. That is, it goes through a process of growth (anagen), transition (catagen), resting (telogen), and shedding (exogen). This cycle determines how long your hair grows and how much hair you lose each day. It is normal to lose some hair on a daily basis, but when too many strands are shed, it can cause anxiety.

With this blog we want to show how hair replacement systems can be a convenient, cost-effective, and safe solution for the loss of hair. It helps restore confidence and brings renewed vigour back to your life.

Common Causes of Hair Loss

Hair loss happens for many reasons. Some of these are temporary while some causes are more permanent and can also result in permanent hair loss. Below are some of the factors for hair loss.

GENETIC FACTORS.

Hereditary hair loss is the most common cause of hair loss, affecting both men and women worldwide. It is also known as androgenetic alopecia or pattern baldness and is linked to genes and hormones.

HORMONAL CHANGES.

It is unfortunate but hair loss can also happen due to hormonal fluctuations over which we have no control. When our bodies change during pregnancy, childbirth, and menopause, we can also suffer loss of hair, which can exacerbate the symptoms we feel when going through these normal life phases. Polycystic ovary syndrome or PCOS affects hormonal balance in women of reproductive age and can also feature hair loss as a symptom.

MEDICAL CONDITIONS.

Illnesses like thyroid disorders, scalp infections, anaemia, certain sexually-transmitted infections, and autoimmune diseases can also affect the hair growth cycle. Alopecia areata, for example, is a type of autoimmune disease that causes the immune system to attack hair follicles, leading to patchy hair loss. It is important to remember, however, that only a medical professional can diagnose hair loss due to medical conditions so please see a doctor if you suspect you might have any of these medical conditions.

MEDICATIONS & TREATMENTS.

Certain medications or treatments, like chemotherapy, can cause hair loss as a side effect. They influence hair loss by disrupting the normal hair growth cycle, especially the anagen (growth) and telogen (resting) phases. The good news is that drug-induced hair loss is usually temporary. Once your body adjusts to the medication or you stop taking it, hair growth typically resumes.

NUTRITIONAL DEFICIENCIES.

Deficiencies in essential nutrients like iron, protein, biotin, and zinc can also prevent proper hair growth and lead to hair loss. When we lack these nutrients, the hair growth cycle is disrupted because the cells cannot divide and produce protein properly. Iron is also key to maintaining healthy hair follicles because lack of iron can limit oxygen supply to hair follicles, which, in turn, affects their proper functioning.

STRESS & TRAUMA.

Both physical and emotional stress can trigger temporary hair loss that can last for weeks or months. Some physical stressors include tight hairstyles worn regularly or use of harsh chemicals that can damage the hair’s protein structure.

Hair Replacement System (HRS) for Hair Loss

Whether your hair loss is temporary or permanent, hair replacement systems can help. HRS are non-surgical solutions for concealing hair loss. The hairpiece is designed to look natural while being securely attached to your scalp. They can cover areas of baldness or thinning hair, giving you fuller-looking tresses. Hair replacement systems are durable and can last a long time, making them cost-effective. Once attached, they offer immediate results without the need for surgery or needles.

WATCH: 6 Things You Need To Know About Hair Replacement Systems

A hair system consists of a base material, usually lace or polyurethane, and hair attached to the base, usually made of real human hair or natural-looking synthetic fibres. They are attached to the head using medical-grade adhesive or tape, which means no invasive procedures while still being securely attached to your head, even during activities like swimming or exercise.

Why get a hair replacement system? If you’re suffering from hair loss and want to be able to still style your hair, a hair system is your best bet. There is plenty of room for customising your hairpiece, with varying lengths, styles, and even colours. You can match your natural hair or be bolder and choose a striking new shade.

Caring for your hairpiece is also a breeze. It’s just like caring for your own hair. It only needs regular washing with a gentle shampoo and deep conditioning once a month, just like natural hair. Just avoid harsh chemicals and daily shampoos with conditioners, as these can break down the adhesive bond. You can also use a wide-toothed or soft-bristled brush specifically designed for HRS to de-tangle and prevent breakage.

There are almost nonexistent safety or comfort concerns for hair replacement systems as they are designed to work just like your regular head of hair. They may need to be reattached every few weeks, depending on the adhesive type used and your scalp’s natural oils, but are otherwise low maintenance.
