Most of us experience hair fall. That could be due to any reason, such as heredity, ageing, injury, due to hormonal imbalance any reason for the matter. Sometimes the condition could get even worse at certain seasons, especially during summer.

The reason as to why we lose hair during summer is because we sweat a lot during summer, the pores on the surface of the skin spread to release sweat. Our hair becomes weak at that time and is more prone to falling off. Along with hair loss you might also experience itching and irritation on your scalp. This could make you scratch your head which could cause hair fall to get much worse.

The major reason as to why several people lose hair is because either the hair gets damaged or the hair is not getting proper nutrition for hair to be strong. There a lot of ways to prevent hair fall. Over the years man has evolved and along with the evolution there have been a lot of changes.

It does not mean that hair has started happening in the present generation. Hair fall has been happening over the years. During those times there were no chemicals that were readily available so people relied on natural methods of preventing hair fall. For the prevention our ancestors relied on plants for the better condition of the hair.

Hair fall is the process where your hair starts falling off at a certain time of the year to give way for growth of new hair. The other reason why hair falls is because of the weather. The time of the year when the hair starts falling is during autumn. During the time of autumn the sun rays are really strong and at this point of time it results in severe hair fall.

Another reason for hair fall is the water. When water is salted it harms the hair. Using of dyes causes damage to the hair as there are chemicals which colours the hair and these chemicals react with the cells of the hair which ideally affects the scalp of the hair. When the chemicals affect the scalp it results in hair loss.  These chemicals react not only with the hair but also the skin on the scalp and cause dryness which results in strength loss of the hair resulting in hair loss.
