I've been going to the gym and sweating a lot on my scalp during workouts. After these sessions, I'm taking head baths every day. It's been two weeks, and now I'm experiencing a significant amount of hair fall. Can you help me understand what's causing this?
Excessive hair fall after starting gym routine could be due to increased sweat, friction, and tension on scalp, potentially leading to conditions like telogen effluvium, scalp irritation, or fungal infections; daily shampooing may also strip your hair of natural oils, causing dryness and breakage; consider reducing shampoo frequency, using gentle products, and incorporating scalp-friendly habits like massaging and oiling.
