Why is intense hair loss in autumn more common than we think?

We've noticed it again. When we wash or comb our hair, we end up with a lot of hair left on our hands or in our brush. Our instinct tells us to worry, but the truth is that this seasonal "loss" is much more normal than we imagine. So, if in recent months we've felt like our hair has thinned out a little more, it's probably just hair loss.
In fact, it's no coincidence. The changing seasons, especially the transition from summer to fall, affect the life cycle of our hair. During the summer, hair follicles "hold" more hair to protect the scalp from the sun. But as fall begins, many of these hairs enter their shedding phase. And this shedding can become quite noticeable.
We're not necessarily talking about serious hair loss. In most cases, it's a temporary condition. Our hair simply "changes with the seasons," just like we do with our clothes and our moods. However, that doesn't mean we can't take better care of our hair during this transitional period.
The first step is hydration. The fall and winter environment, with its reduced humidity and the use of heaters, dries out both our skin and our hair. If we add to this the heat from a hair dryer or curling iron, we have a perfect “recipe” for split ends and brittle hair. So, we need to step up our care with masks, oils, and moisturizing products that protect against heat.
Nutrition is just as important. Strong, healthy hair starts from the inside out. Vitamins like D, zinc, iron, and of course protein help support normal hair growth. If you feel like your diet isn't giving you everything you need, you can add a nutritional supplement.
We also don't forget the importance of proper hair care. We use wide-toothed combs, avoid pulling hair when it's wet, and avoid very tight hairstyles that stress the roots.
Of course, let's not forget the role of stress. Returning to everyday life is often accompanied by increased anxiety, which can even have an impact on the hair cycle. So perhaps it's time to incorporate a little more relaxation into our daily lives, whether through meditation or simply quieter moments.
However, if you notice severe hair loss or areas of noticeable thinning, it's a good idea to consult a dermatologist. Sometimes, hair loss can be related to something more complex, such as hormonal changes or vitamin deficiencies, and it's important to get a professional diagnosis.
The main thing is not to panic. Our bodies know what they're doing, and most of the time, seasonal hair loss is part of that cycle. If we give it the attention and care it needs, our hair will grow back, perhaps even stronger than before.
