Does September or October arrive and you start noticing more hair on your brush, in the shower or on your pillow? Hair loss in autumn<\/strong> can be worrying, but a temporary increase in hair shedding does not always indicate a problem. <\/p>

Hair follows a natural cycle consisting of different phases of growth, transition and rest. In fact, several studies have observed seasonal variations in this cycle. A study involving 823 women found a higher proportion of hairs in the telogen phase \u2014 the phase before shedding \u2014 during the summer. As a result, increased hair shedding may become noticeable several weeks later. <\/p>

Therefore, finding more hair in your brush during these weeks may be part of its natural renewal process.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Hair loss in autumn: how can we care for our hair?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Although we cannot prevent a hair that has completed its cycle from shedding, we can help create suitable conditions for the scalp and new hair growth.<\/p>

Firstly, care starts from within. A varied and balanced diet should provide sufficient protein, vitamins and minerals. Among these, zinc and biotin contribute to the maintenance of normal hair<\/strong>, provided that the food or supplement contains the amounts required to use these authorised nutrition claims. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Rosemary essential oil<\/strong> has a long tradition of cosmetic use in products designed for the scalp. In addition, its topical application has also been the subject of research. <\/p>

A clinical trial compared a rosemary oil preparation with 2% minoxidil over six months in people withn adrogenetic alopecia<\/strong>. At the end of the study period, both groups showed a significant increase in hair count compared with baseline. <\/p>

However, it is important to interpret this result correctly: the study was conducted on a specific type of alopecia and does not demonstrate that rosemary treats all causes of hair loss<\/strong>.<\/p>

On the other hand, Atlas cedar essential oil<\/strong> is traditionally used in aromatherapy and hair care cosmetics in formulations designed for scalp massage and care.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
