does hair fall increase in monsoon - #37553
I am noticing that my hair fall seems to get worse during the monsoon, like, every year I dread this season because of it. I guess I’ve always thought it was just me being paranoid or something, you know? But seriously, this year feels crazy! I’ve tried a million hair products, and just last week my friend recommended a hair oil, which I’ve been using constantly, but results are slow. I've even started drinking more water and eating healthier, just to see if that helps. Been doing some reading, a lot of people mention natural treatments for hair fall and I’m curious if anyone here has experienced the same thing. Does hair fall increase in monsoon or am I just imagining it? I hear humidity can mess with your scalp or something. My hair feels oily one moment and super dry the next, it’s confusing! Also, I recently did a test and was told my vitamin D levels are low, could that be playing a role too? Just feel like I’m stuck in this cycle of trying different things but not getting any answers. Anyone else struggle with this? What do you guys do to combat this? Any advice would help!

Yes, you’re certainly not imagining it. Many people report increased hair fall during the monsoon season. In Ayurveda, monsoon is considered a time when the Vata dosha, which governs movement in the body, gets aggravated. This can affect your scalp’s health, leading to hair fall. The fluctuating humidity levels during this season can indeed mess with the scalp’s balance, making hair oily or dry at different times, which you’re experiencing.
The low vitamin D levels might also be contributing to your problem. Vitamin D is crucial for hair follicle growth and a deficiency can weaken your hair. Since you mentioned starting healthy habits like drinking more water and eating better, that’s a good start, but it’s also essential to incorporate foods that are rich in natural vitamin D, such as fortified foods or mushrooms, if you’re vegetarian. A brief daily exposure to sunlight can also help increase your vitamin D levels, but becareful not to overdo it.
While hair oils take time to show results, choosing the right one is important. Bhringraj oil, or amla oil, are traditionally recommended in Ayurveda for strengthening the hair roots and reducing hair fall. Massage your scalp gently with warm oil once or twice a week before shampooing. It’s a soothing routine that improves blood circulation.
For your diet, consider adding almonds, walnuts, and flaxseeds as they are rich in essential fatty acids and help in maintaining hair moisture. Avoid excessively washing your hair as it can strip off natural oils; twice a week should suffice, using a mild shampoo.
Stress can exacerbate hair loss, so integrating practices like yoga or meditation can have benefits beyond just mental health. It is often the overlooked factor when it comes to hair health, yet in Ayurveda, mental harmony is connected to physical wellbeing.
For localized remedies, Amalaki (Indian Gooseberry) powder, boiled with water and then applied as a paste for 20 minutes before rinsing, can help reduce hair fall by nourishing the scalp and strengthening the hair follicles.
If your hair fall seems excessive or doesn’t improve, it may be worthwhile to consul a healthcare provider for a comprehensive assessment.
