Winter Hair Fall: Why It Happens & How to Control It
If you’ve been noticing more strands on your pillow or in the shower lately, you’re not alone.

With the right care and expert-backed treatments, winter hair fall can be controlled and even reversed. Here’s your complete Week 2 guide to healthier, stronger winter hair. 🍂 Why Does Hair Fall Increase in Winter? 1️⃣ Dry Scalp = Weak Hair Roots Low humidity causes the scalp to lose natural oils, leading to dryness, itchiness, and flaky dandruff — all of which weaken hair follicles. 2️⃣ Reduced Blood Circulation Cold weather constricts blood vessels, reducing nutrient supply to hair roots. 3️⃣ Hot Showers Damage Hair Frequent hot water showers pull moisture from the scalp, making hair brittle. 4️⃣ Static & Breakage Dry winter air creates static electricity that leads to hair breakage. 5️⃣ Seasonal Shedding Cycle Your body naturally sheds more hair in winter as part of its biological rhythm. 💇♀️ How to Control Winter Hair Fall 🌿 1.
