#MY HAIR HAS TAKEN 7 YEARS TO GROW SKIN#
If you’re concerned about your hair or any skin condition, there’s no need to worry, wonder or wait. This won’t eliminate the potential for problems, but can reduce hair shedding to a more tolerable level.

If you want to minimize hair damage, you’ll want to limit treatments to every six weeks. These contain harsh chemicals, including ammonia and peroxide. These can be used more often than so-called permanent hair dyes.

Here’s the bottom line: Semi-permanent coloration products are more gentle and do not contain alcohol or ammonia. This can cause hair literally to break off at the scalp. But peroxide also strips protein from your hair, weakening the hair shafts. Peroxide removes pigments from your natural hair color, which is why it is a common ingredient in formulations that produce a blonde color. Hair coloration products can also weaken your hair shafts, leading to breakage. Both chemicals can loosen hair in the telogen phase. Even in chronic conditions, patients typically won’t lose all their hair, though they may see noticeable thinning.Ĭommon ingredients in hair dye products include ammonia and hydrogen peroxide, which is a bleaching agent. People who experience hair shedding lasting longer than 6 months are considered to have chronic telogen effluvium. Medical research shows between 5 to 10 percent of the hair on your head will be in the telogen phase at any given time. Telogen effluvium occurs during the telogen phase.
