HairThinning

Hair thinning occurs when hair strands become fewer or finer, leading to a less dense appearance on the scalp. It can result from factors like genetics, hormonal changes, aging, stress, poor nutrition, or scalp conditions. Hair follicles may shrink over time, producing thinner hair, or stop producing hair altogether. While common and often gradual, understanding the underlying cause is key to managing or treating hair thinning effectively. Addressing lifestyle factors, medical conditions, or using targeted treatments can help slow progression and improve hair density.
