5 tips for moms — reduce hair fall during pregnancy and after birth

Because of hormonal fluctuations, mothers can experience hair fall during pregnancy or postpartum hair fall. This is one more worry for mothers — while some experience only minor hair loss, others lose hair in large clumps all at once, so much that hair visibly thins — which is quite distressing. So here are 5 simple tips to help reduce hair fall during pregnancy and postpartum hair fall for mothers. 1. Eat well — supplement nutritional value for mothers with pregnancy or postpartum hair fall Diet is an important matter that cannot be overlooked. You should eat nutritious food covering all 5 food groups so the body receives complete nutrition, and eat foods that are naturally rich in iron — such as meat, egg yolks, liver, fish, and dark leafy greens. For pregnant mothers, you may wish to consult your doctor for additional guidance, for both the mother's and the baby's benefit. 2. Gently comb hair with hair fall — avoid heat Everyone knows you should not comb wet hair — because wet hair is so fragile, weak, and prone to breaking. Wait until hair is dry before combing; if you cannot wait and hair is tangled, use a wide-tooth comb or gently detangle with your fingers. It is also recommended to avoid heat from both the hair dryer and straightener — use cool air or natural airflow to dry hair instead, or use a heat-protective product before drying or straightening. This method applies from the time of pregnancy hair fall all the way through postpartum hair fall. 3. Mothers with pregnancy or postpartum hair fall — cut it short for easier care Cutting hair shorter is another option for mothers with pregnancy or postpartum hair fall. Although it does not directly reduce hair loss, shorter hair makes hair care and maintenance easier. When combined with proper care and hair restoration, cutting hair short may also help reduce hair fall. 4. Take a break from chemicals — hold off on hair colouring For mothers experiencing hair fall during pregnancy or postpartum hair fall who want to colour their hair for cosmetic reasons — please hold off for now. Chemicals will damage the hair and scalp, weakening them and making hair prone to breakage and fall. With hair falling out already as a baseline, it is even more inadvisable. 5. What should mothers with pregnancy or postpartum hair fall use? Another important consideration is choosing gentle hair products that are free from chemicals harmful to hair and scalp. Choose AloEx anti-hair-fall products — an organic formula that nourishes hair and scalp deeply, helping hair become stronger, with less hair fall and stimulated new growth. Confident in safety — mothers can use with peace of mind. - Rich in natural extracts - Free from SLS, Silicone, Paraben chemicals - No artificial fragrance or perfume - Safe for sensitive skin — non-irritating - Safety certified by the Thai FDA; manufacturing facility meets GMP standards - Multiple quality awards from Cleo, Watsons, Konvy AloEx is gentle and safe for both mother and baby.

How to 'wash hair' the right way

Many ladies are puzzled — no matter how well you take care of your hair, it still falls out! Did you know that most people have been washing their hair the wrong way all along? Because everyday things that many people overlook can damage our hair and scalp without us realising it. So what is the right way to wash your hair to keep it strong? Here is the technique for "washing hair the right way" from a Japanese doctor. First rinse: focus on actually rinsing, not just getting wet Before applying shampoo, you need to rinse with water first — and this rinse is not just about getting your hair wet; you need to rinse thoroughly, covering the entire scalp and hair, almost as if shampooing with plain water. This first step alone removes a great deal of dirt. Lather the shampoo before applying and washing Anyone who likes to squeeze shampoo directly onto hair, or squeeze it into their hands and then slap it on and rub to lather — I recommend changing this habit right away. When hair is wet it is at its most fragile, and doing this may cause hair to break and fall. The correct way is to lather the shampoo in your hands first, then apply it to the hair. If you can't work up a lather, you can use a foam-making net to help. Focus on cleansing the scalp After rinsing and applying shampoo, the next important step is the actual washing. True shampooing means cleansing the scalp — yet most of us tend to focus on rubbing the hair strands. In fact, the focus should be on the scalp, using finger pads to massage in circular motions throughout. This promotes good blood circulation, keeping hair strong and less prone to breakage and fall. Rinse thoroughly, then blow-dry after washing When it comes to rinsing, most people already do it correctly — rinsing from the nape of the neck upward; in simple terms, tilt your head forward and rinse from the nape downward. It is recommended to spend twice as long rinsing as lathering, for a thorough clean. Then blow-dry within 5 minutes of finishing. Now that you know the right shampooing technique for strong, healthy hair and scalp, don't forget a great helper like the AloEx Box Set — because AloEx Original Shampoo thoroughly cleanses and detoxes all impurities from the scalp, rinses out easily, and leaves no chemical residues on the scalp. After blow-drying, finish with a gentle application of AloEx Hair Regrowth Serum — and the scalp and hair will be extremely strong and healthy.

Brown rice and good grains — a hair-loss fix

When brown rice comes to mind, many people think of its health benefits — and brown rice can also help nourish hair and reduce hair fall. Especially for those who want shiny hair or are experiencing premature grey hair, try switching to whole grains, particularly brown rice instead of white rice, as brown rice contains more vitamin B5. And for anyone who wants to do a brown rice hair mask, try this method: wash 200 grams of brown rice thoroughly and soak in water for 30 minutes. Take one Kaffir Lime, boil until cooked, then remove the seeds. Blend or pound the soaked brown rice and Kaffir Lime until fine, then strain to extract only the liquid. Apply this liquid to your hair and leave for about 15–20 minutes, then rinse off. Using this simple brown rice hair mask will help make your hair shiny and moisturised.

Does AloEx really help new growth, itchiness, and dandruff? Who has tried it?

Does AloEx really help new growth, itchiness, and dandruff? Who has tried it?

Hello everyone! No need to wonder if this is a sponsored review (SR) — yes, it is, and we received this for free. Being a review enthusiast, I was curious whether AloEx can truly solve hair fall, dandruff, weak hair, and itchiness. The price is not cheap, but with our generous spirit, today we'll try it and analyse the ingredients. Fair warning: this review is fairly casual — not expert-level, but I'll explain as much as I know. Let's go! AloEx Hair Regrowth Shampoo & Serum — these two are said to be a shampoo and serum made specifically for people with hair and scalp problems. The shampoo claims to be unlike regular market shampoos because it contains no silicone, sulphate, fragrance, alcohol, or paraben, like some products on the market. This is something they firmly claim, so those with sensitive scalps (easily irritated) can use it. The serum then complements by reducing itchiness and stimulating new hair growth — details to follow. Upon opening the box, you find the shampoo and serum bottles neatly arranged. The back of the box clearly details each product along with usage instructions. Let's try them and see how they feel — I'll analyse the ingredients along the way. Scalp condition before starting: First things first — here's the condition of my scalp before trying both AloEx products. As you can see, no dandruff, no noticeable hair fall or thinning. My hair has only been coloured once in my life, and that was many years ago. Overall, I think my hair is in good condition — maybe some occasional itchiness or natural shedding, but nothing out of the ordinary. Let's try them one at a time. AloEx Hair Regrowth Shampoo 200ml — this is claimed to have been researched by scientists who discovered the benefits of extracts from various Thai herbs, including Kaffir Lime, Butterfly Pea, Aloe Vera, Henna, Glory Bower (Clerodendrum), Moringa, Ginseng, Thai Soapnut, Bamboo Leaf, and Gotu Kola, all combined into one bottle. There are many claimed benefits which I won't list here, but I'll analyse the ingredients on the back instead. Based on the ingredients, it is a shampoo using gentle cleansing agents such as Sodium Cocoamphoacetate, Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate, and Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate — so lather may be less than a regular shampoo, but from my testing there was no issue with lather. In terms of nourishing ingredients, there are quite a few — skip ahead if you don't want to read technical details. Aloe Vera extract — adds moisture to the scalp, reduces inflammation and irritation. Moringa oil — replenishes lipids in hair and scalp, helps hair shine and scalp stay moisturised. Gotu Kola extract — notable for anti-inflammatory properties and promoting natural wound healing, thus helping to slow and reduce inflammation and hair fall. Clerodendrum inerme (Glory Bower) extract — a plant used in Indian and Thai traditional medicine for a long time, to kill germs, heal wounds, and reduce skin inflammation. Ginseng extract — has many benefits, helps balance scalp immunity and strengthen the scalp. Research supports that ginseng extract can inhibit 5α-reductase enzyme which converts male hormones into the more potent Dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a major cause of hair fall — ginseng extract thus helps prevent hormone-related hair fall. Reports also note that ginseng extract can promote hair growth in animal studies (a rather impressive finding). Thai Soapnut extract — helps kill certain fungi on the scalp, promotes healthy scalp. Kaffir Lime Leaf extract — contains essential oils that help control scalp oiliness and inhibit certain pathogens. Henna extract — contains the colouring compound Lawsone with a dark brown colour, may help conceal grey hair (speculation, insufficient data — may be disregarded). Eryngium maritimum (Sea Holly) extract — reported antioxidant and scalp anti-inflammatory properties. Usage is the same as a regular shampoo. It comes as a slightly opaque gel with a clear herbal scent and a cooling sensation. Good lather. I personally appreciate that it is free from irritants, as I tend to get acne around my face border partly caused by shampoo. Highlights: a shampoo with gentle cleansing agents that does not over-dry or make hair oily — quite balanced. Contains many natural nourishing ingredients with overall properties including anti-inflammation and anti-irritation.

Why Thai beauty gurus choose AloEx

Why Thai beauty gurus choose AloEx

Ladies, if you're looking for a hot must-have item right now, this moment belongs to AloEx — the hair and scalp health shampoo that Thai beauty bloggers who have used it all guarantee is excellent. What's the reason? Why do beauty bloggers choose AloEx? Let's take a look. 1. By Nongchat — "A shampoo so good that professional hairdressers have to share it" — This top-tier makeup artist in Thailand, who has done makeup for celebrities, brides, and socialites countless times, came out to recommend AloEx products: "I'm loving this so much right now. I recommend it for anyone with hair fall or thinning issues. AloEx shampoo and serum that I've been using together for a while really work. Hair fall has genuinely reduced, hair is thicker, the parting looks narrower. It's also an organic hair care product that helps keep the scalp healthy, and reduces dandruff and itchiness too. It really works — I use it myself all the time and recommend it to brides who are concerned about thinning hair." FB Page: Nongchatch. 2. By alwaysfluke — "For people with sensitive hair fall like me, I recommend it. But if you want to keep white hair like me, don't use it, haha" — Khun Fluke from alwaysfluke.com, a well-known beauty blogger with a sensitive scalp that flares red easily, was looking for a shampoo to help with this problem. AloEx worked well for him. After trying it, Khun Fluke said: "I tried the shampoo about 2–3 times and my heavy scalp flaking improved significantly and visibly. Scalp itchiness is virtually gone — such a relief for someone who often has scalp itchiness. Besides the shampoo, AloEx also has a companion product — AloEx serum in a spray that helps stimulate new hair growth, nourishes hair roots, and revitalises the scalp. To summarise: I love it, but there's one issue... it makes my hair darker (I prefer white hair, haha)." Review: https://youtu.be/uWBRCJuw73s FB Page: flukealwaysfluke Blog: https://www.alwaysfluke.com/ 3. By Khun Mhunoii — "Reduces hair fall and itchiness really well — works for my boyfriend too, and works for me" — Khun Mhunoii, a lovely beauty blogger, chose AloEx because she experienced hair fall — a common problem among women. AloEx is a shampoo designed specifically for people with hair fall problems, containing herbal extracts that help nourish hair roots, such as adding protein and amino acids to the roots and hair, and containing extracts from seeds, bulbs, and ginseng to add moisture and density to hair roots. Men can also use it: "Mhunoii sent it to her boyfriend to try, because he had been experiencing severe hair fall over the past year. He had tried many anti-hair fall shampoos before — and the feedback on this one was that it genuinely reduces hair fall. But what stood out more than other shampoos he'd used was the scent — because this one has herbal extracts with a gently pleasant fragrance, making washing feel much more enjoyable. Plus there's a light cooling sensation because it has ingredients that help lower scalp temperature, making it feel comfortable. So the conclusion is: it gives a good experience during use and delivers decent results in reducing hair fall." Review: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f46IGp3nMzc FB Page: Mhunoiii Blog: http://www.mhunoiii.bloggang.com 4. By Khun Eyeta — "For people with hair fall from hair colouring and frequent chemical exposure like Eyeta, you need a helper like this" — Khun Eyeta, a well-known beauty blogger, came out to share tips on hair care for people with chemical-related problems: "Normally Eyeta colours her hair frequently and usually uses shampoo made specifically for coloured hair, but it caused severe hair fall — falling and falling and falling. I tried several anti-hair fall shampoos and still felt they didn't quite meet my needs... until I found AloEx, a shampoo that helps strengthen hair roots, eliminate chemical buildup from years of colouring — which is the main cause of hair fall — and also reduces scalp itchiness. Importantly, it does not change or lighten the hair colour. This is it — exactly what I needed!" "But for anyone who does not colour their hair, or does colour their hair — even a darker colour — you can use this product on its own. AloEx Shampoo can help maintain hair colour dark and rich without greying, while also strengthening hair roots for better grip so hair does not fall out easily, and it reduces scalp itchiness too." Review: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lal-fskHqCs FB Page: eyetaeyeta Blog: http://www.bitchesloveme.net 5. By Khun Janenipa — "AloEx: a shampoo perfect for people who style their hair often and regularly straighten — it really works!"

Hairstyles for Women with Thin Hair

Did you know that women with bob or mushroom cut hairstyles look even cuter? If you trim the ends of your hair to make the middle appear fuller, it will also make your hair look thicker. Alternatively, you can try layering your hair from the top of your head downwards. For the front section, you can either sweep it to one side or part it in the middle to create a slimmer face shape. Most importantly, avoid styling your hair too voluminous, as it will make your face appear rounder and larger than before.

Long-trip self-care — how to survive!

As the year-end approaches, December brings a long holiday and bonuses are about to come in — many of you are probably already planning trips, aren't you? Some will go abroad to enjoy the cold weather, some will head up north to experience the natural chill, and some adventurous ones will head to the beach. Today we'll share the technique of what to prepare when travelling, so the trip can be fun and uninterrupted. 1. Clothing suitable for the weather at your destination We recommend preparing in advance before setting out, because sometimes if you plan to buy at the destination it can be inconvenient, time-consuming, or you might get overcharged and be forced to buy at a high price. So prepare everything in advance — that's the better option. Also, try to prepare wrinkle-resistant clothes so they're easy to wear and comfortable, and boost your confidence. This point also includes footwear — go with shoes you wear often and are comfortable in. Absolutely do not try brand-new shoes, as they may rub and cause blisters. 2. Wet wipes For personal hygiene — because we cannot predict whether the bathrooms, restaurants, or various places we visit will be clean. Especially ladies who accidentally spill coffee or other things — you can pull out the wet wipes for a quick clean-up and you're back to looking beautiful. So carry them with you at all times, because I believe you will definitely use them. 3. Your favourite Skincare and Haircare products that you use regularly This is extremely important. When travelling, the body gets very worn out each day — some people travel intensely, losing sleep until their eyes are hollow. During travel, the body becomes particularly run-down because it uses an enormous amount of energy. So for your comfort, you should bring the Haircare and Skincare you already use regularly — such as shampoo, sunscreen, Makeup Remover, or your favourite Moisturizer. Don't rely on the hotel's soap and shampoo, because some places may not provide them — or what they do provide may leave your hair in a mess, dry and breaking, or your skin completely dry. Using products you are familiar with is always the best option. I therefore recommend bringing skincare that can thoroughly remove all makeup and help restore tired skin. You should also bring a gentle hair-care shampoo for hair and scalp like AloEx, so you can be confident that the trip leaves your hair looking beautiful and healthy — no itching, no dandruff. This trip, bringing it everywhere is the real deal — guaranteed no dry hair, no itching, no frizz, looking great all the way. 4. Personal toiletries and sleeping accessories for long-haul flights The heading may sound a bit odd but it really is important. Personal toiletries here mean everything from facial cleanser, moisturiser, toothbrush, toothpaste, to mouthwash. Because on a long flight without bathing, you may feel sticky, uncomfortable, or develop unpleasant odours. Once you land, you head out to explore immediately — so being prepared while still on the plane is extremely effective. Note: if you are bringing liquids on board, don't bring too many — the limit is 100 ml per item, no more than 10 items, with a combined total not exceeding 1,000 ml. Pack them neatly in a zip-lock bag, or customs will discard them. And for those on long flights who want to sleep soundly, undisturbed, and without neck pain — I recommend bringing a neck pillow and eye mask. Guaranteed — this flight will have you sleeping soundly. 5. Your regular Makeup This goes without saying — when we travel we take photos and selfies, so going bare-faced probably won't work. A long-awaited trip deserves a full look, right? I therefore recommend bringing makeup products that you trust and have used successfully. Please don't create new looks you've never tried before, as they may go wrong. Foundation, sunscreen, and eyebrow pencil should have good staying power, be waterproof and sweat-proof, and not transfer — because during the day you may not have time to redo your face. For lipstick, you might bring several — such as a lip balm and lip colours in various shades — because changing lip colour can change your whole look easily without needing to pack many makeup items. And don't forget to bring zip-lock bags in various sizes — for storing products you're bringing, to prevent leaks and spills on clothes. 6. Backpack and shopping bag This is something ladies need to star with seven hundred stars, because sometimes we don't leave room in our suitcase for things bought on the trip. After shopping happily, you may return to the hotel screaming: how am I going to get all of this home? Importantly, when shopping in some countries you have to pay for bags too — I've experienced this when buying milk, bread, etc. at a supermarket: 0.50 euros per bag (which works out to about 20 baht each — and let me emphasise that the bag you get is a convenience-store style bag).

5 ways to treat postpartum hair loss

What every new mum needs to know if you don't want chronic hair fall. Postpartum hair fall is a problem that occurs naturally, but it weighs heavily on many new mums. While postpartum hair fall is not a dangerous condition and does not affect every mum, those who do experience it will shed significantly more hair than usual — and it can develop from postpartum hair fall into severe thinning. Why does postpartum hair fall occur? Postpartum hair fall is caused by hormonal changes in the body. During pregnancy, oestrogen levels rise significantly, causing hair to grow well, becoming thick, healthy, and shedding less. But after delivery, oestrogen levels drop sharply and the hair that had stopped shedding during pregnancy re-enters its normal shedding cycle all at once — which is why postpartum hair fall occurs. Mums experiencing postpartum hair fall may go through it continuously for 1–6 months before returning to normal (depending on the individual), but we understand it causes worry and stress as it may lead to thinning. Mums can cope with postpartum hair fall using these approaches: How to manage postpartum hair fall — Cut your hair shorter: this does not directly reduce postpartum hair fall but does help reduce the appearance of shedding, since short hair is easier to care for than long hair. Cutting it short and maintaining the hair together helps reduce postpartum hair fall. Avoid hair colouring: no matter how much you want beautiful coloured hair, it is especially inadvisable for mums already dealing with postpartum hair fall, because chemicals from colouring may damage the hair and scalp, weaken hair, and potentially worsen hair fall. Comb gently and avoid heat: always comb gently; if hair is tangled, use a wide-tooth comb or fingers instead. Avoid combing wet hair as it breaks easily. Also avoid heat such as hot blow-drying and straighteners — use cool air or heat-protection products every time. Eat hair-nourishing foods: this is an important step not to overlook. Mums with postpartum hair fall should eat all 5 food groups for complete nutrition, and eat foods rich in iron such as meat, fish, and spinach, and foods with zinc such as liver, eggs, brown rice, and green vegetables to nourish the hair and scalp and help reduce postpartum hair fall. Choose products that are gentle on hair and scalp and free from chemicals that may cause irritation or allergic reactions. Recommended hair-fall reduction product: AloEx — nourishes the hair and scalp, stimulates blood circulation to deliver nutrients to the hair, strengthens hair, helps reduce hair fall and postpartum hair fall, addresses thinning, stimulates stronger new hair growth, and helps hair become thick and healthy again. Reduce postpartum hair fall with AloEx — a natural, gentle, and safe hair-fall reduction product for mums experiencing postpartum hair fall. Rich in natural herbal extracts, no SLS, Silicone, or Paraben, no added fragrance, gentle on users — suitable for sensitive skin, non-irritating. Safety certified by the Thai FDA and produced in a GMP-standard facility. Multiple quality awards from Cleo, Watsons, and Konvy.

As the year-end approaches, December brings a long holiday and bonuses are about to come in — many of you are probably already planning trips, aren't you? Some will go abroad to enjoy the cold weather, some will head up north to experience the natural chill, and some adventurous ones will head to the beach. Today we'll share the technique of what to prepare when travelling, so the trip can be fun and uninterrupted. 1. Clothing suitable for the weather at your destination We recommend preparing in advance before setting out, because sometimes if you plan to buy at the destination it can be inconvenient, time-consuming, or you might get overcharged and be forced to buy at a high price. So prepare everything in advance — that's the better option. Also, try to prepare wrinkle-resistant clothes so they're easy to wear and comfortable, and boost your confidence. This point also includes footwear — go with shoes you wear often and are comfortable in. Absolutely do not try brand-new shoes, as they may rub and cause blisters. 2. Wet wipes For personal hygiene — because we cannot predict whether the bathrooms, restaurants, or various places we visit will be clean. Especially ladies who accidentally spill coffee or other things — you can pull out the wet wipes for a quick clean-up and you're back to looking beautiful. So carry them with you at all times, because I believe you will definitely use them. 3. Your favourite Skincare and Haircare products that you use regularly This is extremely important. When travelling, the body gets very worn out each day — some people travel intensely, losing sleep until their eyes are hollow. During travel, the body becomes particularly run-down because it uses an enormous amount of energy. So for your comfort, you should bring the Haircare and Skincare you already use regularly — such as shampoo, sunscreen, Makeup Remover, or your favourite Moisturizer. Don't rely on the hotel's soap and shampoo, because some places may not provide them — or what they do provide may leave your hair in a mess, dry and breaking, or your skin completely dry. Using products you are familiar with is always the best option. I therefore recommend bringing skincare that can thoroughly remove all makeup and help restore tired skin. You should also bring a gentle hair-care shampoo for hair and scalp like AloEx, so you can be confident that the trip leaves your hair looking beautiful and healthy — no itching, no dandruff. This trip, bringing it everywhere is the real deal — guaranteed no dry hair, no itching, no frizz, looking great all the way. 4. Personal toiletries and sleeping accessories for long-haul flights The heading may sound a bit odd but it really is important. Personal toiletries here mean everything from facial cleanser, moisturiser, toothbrush, toothpaste, to mouthwash. Because on a long flight without bathing, you may feel sticky, uncomfortable, or develop unpleasant odours. Once you land, you head out to explore immediately — so being prepared while still on the plane is extremely effective. Note: if you are bringing liquids on board, don't bring too many — the limit is 100 ml per item, no more than 10 items, with a combined total not exceeding 1,000 ml. Pack them neatly in a zip-lock bag, or customs will discard them. And for those on long flights who want to sleep soundly, undisturbed, and without neck pain — I recommend bringing a neck pillow and eye mask. Guaranteed — this flight will have you sleeping soundly. 5. Your regular Makeup This goes without saying — when we travel we take photos and selfies, so going bare-faced probably won't work. A long-awaited trip deserves a full look, right? I therefore recommend bringing makeup products that you trust and have used successfully. Please don't create new looks you've never tried before, as they may go wrong. Foundation, sunscreen, and eyebrow pencil should have good staying power, be waterproof and sweat-proof, and not transfer — because during the day you may not have time to redo your face. For lipstick, you might bring several — such as a lip balm and lip colours in various shades — because changing lip colour can change your whole look easily without needing to pack many makeup items. And don't forget to bring zip-lock bags in various sizes — for storing products you're bringing, to prevent leaks and spills on clothes. 6. Backpack and shopping bag This is something ladies need to star with seven hundred stars, because sometimes we don't leave room in our suitcase for things bought on the trip. After shopping happily, you may return to the hotel screaming: how am I going to get all of this home? Importantly, when shopping in some countries you have to pay for bags too — I've experienced this when buying milk, bread, etc. at a supermarket: 0.50 euros per bag (which works out to about 20 baht each — and let me emphasise that the bag you get is a convenience-store style bag).

5 ways to treat postpartum hair loss

What every new mum needs to know if you don't want chronic hair fall. Postpartum hair fall is a problem that occurs naturally, but it weighs heavily on many new mums. While postpartum hair fall is not a dangerous condition and does not affect every mum, those who do experience it will shed significantly more hair than usual — and it can develop from postpartum hair fall into severe thinning. Why does postpartum hair fall occur? Postpartum hair fall is caused by hormonal changes in the body. During pregnancy, oestrogen levels rise significantly, causing hair to grow well, becoming thick, healthy, and shedding less. But after delivery, oestrogen levels drop sharply and the hair that had stopped shedding during pregnancy re-enters its normal shedding cycle all at once — which is why postpartum hair fall occurs. Mums experiencing postpartum hair fall may go through it continuously for 1–6 months before returning to normal (depending on the individual), but we understand it causes worry and stress as it may lead to thinning. Mums can cope with postpartum hair fall using these approaches: How to manage postpartum hair fall — Cut your hair shorter: this does not directly reduce postpartum hair fall but does help reduce the appearance of shedding, since short hair is easier to care for than long hair. Cutting it short and maintaining the hair together helps reduce postpartum hair fall. Avoid hair colouring: no matter how much you want beautiful coloured hair, it is especially inadvisable for mums already dealing with postpartum hair fall, because chemicals from colouring may damage the hair and scalp, weaken hair, and potentially worsen hair fall. Comb gently and avoid heat: always comb gently; if hair is tangled, use a wide-tooth comb or fingers instead. Avoid combing wet hair as it breaks easily. Also avoid heat such as hot blow-drying and straighteners — use cool air or heat-protection products every time. Eat hair-nourishing foods: this is an important step not to overlook. Mums with postpartum hair fall should eat all 5 food groups for complete nutrition, and eat foods rich in iron such as meat, fish, and spinach, and foods with zinc such as liver, eggs, brown rice, and green vegetables to nourish the hair and scalp and help reduce postpartum hair fall. Choose products that are gentle on hair and scalp and free from chemicals that may cause irritation or allergic reactions.

Did you know — cigarettes are another cause of hair loss

National Taiwan University and Far Eastern Memorial Hospital have noted that smoking has harmful effects on hair, as smokers experience a faster rate of hair loss than normal people, leading to earlier onset of baldness or thinning hair. This research studied the effects of smoking on hair loss in Asian, European, and American men and concluded that regardless of nationality, smokers suffer premature hair loss, a sign of premature aging. Furthermore, smoking worsens blood circulation, reducing blood flow to the hair roots and thus contributing to hair loss and baldness. Knowing this, readers should consider reducing and quitting smoking for the sake of your hair health and overall health. And don't forget to try AloEx, rich in extracts from a variety of Thai herbs that nourish the scalp and stimulate blood circulation to the hair roots comprehensively, helping to reduce hair loss and restore the scalp effectively.
