Are Your Tresses Stressing?


We all have heard how stress can affect our health. There are also studies that stress may be an underlying cause for hair loss. What have you been stressing about lately? Is it really worth it? Can you control the situation that you are stressing about? What could have been done to prevent the stress that you are experiencing? I have to be honest, I do stress about certain things but not as much as I have in the past. I am learning how to detoxify my mind and body of stress. I mean, I didn’t go to a doctor to get this remedy. I had to pray and really meditate on the Word of God. Then I began to evaluate the stress that was present in my life. You have to assess the situation. You can begin by asking the questions aforementioned.

You may be wondering why your hair isn’t acting right, feeling thin, not healthy, etc. You might be buying the latest products out there. You might even have your regime down to a tee. But what’s on the inside of you can be affecting your tresses. This includes the food you consume, hormones, and stress. We have to make sure that we keep our bodies as healthy as possible on the inside so that it will radiate outwardly. Stress will cause you to eat too much of the wrong items or not eat at all. You won’t get the nutrients you need in order for your hair follicles to produce healthy strands. Stress will also cause you develop habits that are harmful to your tresses such as constantly tugging or rubbing your hair. All in all, stress effects much more than your health. It affects your hair, the people around you, as well as your self esteem. Read more about stress and hormones affecting hair loss here.
