It is not a secret for anyone, the stress physical and emotional is a trigger factor of many inconveniences. The sudden arrival of the coronavirus has caused many destabilizing situations.
Anxiety caused by these sudden changes in our lifestyle can cause an immune response. In return, this immune response disrupts the growth cycle of our hair. This phenomenon is often associated with what is called oxidative stress. It causes an imbalance between the production of free radicals and the ability of the body to neutralize these potentially damaging substances. Free radicals are unstable molecules that can damage cells, proteins and DNA from our body. This is why, because of their high cellular activity, the hair follicles are particularly sensitive.
The impact of oxidative stress on hair is significant: premature aging, slowdown in growth, weakening the hair structure, hair loss and degradation of scalp.
