Can coloring my hair every 3 months for many years lead to hair loss?

And if I stop coloring my hair, will the hair grow back?Can coloring my hair every 3 months for many years lead to hair loss?
Coloring you hair may cause your strands to become dry and brittle, causing hair breakage but will not cause hair loss from the roots (unless the dye caused a severe allergic reaction on your scalp) However, if your hair is fragile and falling it is best to limit dyeing your hair until it returns to a better state. Essential oil scalp massage formulas are very effective at stimulating new hair growth and restoring healthy hair (see link below) It is also important to try to pinpoint the cause and make corrections. There are many possible causes including nutritional deficiency, medication, vaccination, exposure to allergen or toxins, illness, infection etc. You will find a lot of interesting and helpful information on female hair loss at the site listed below.Can coloring my hair every 3 months for many years lead to hair loss?
If your lightening your hair which involves bleaching (which causes hair damage and breakage) I'd say yes. I don't think it would cause hair loss, but your hair will break near the scalp and it will make it appear that you have less hair.





If its just a straight color your using (close to your natural shade) I'd say no it isn't causing hair loss. I'm 40 and have been coloring my hair since I was 16 (I got gray really early) and I have really thick full hair. I color my hair every 5-6 weeks with a permanent color to cover the gray and I haven't noticed any thinning.





Remember if you're blow drying with a round brush or ironing your hair a lot it could also cause hair to break near the scalp and make your hair appear thinner. Good luck.
HI yes it can. Alot depends on the dye you were / are using, some are packed with chemicals. Chemicals can/will damage the hair.





Hair continuously grows so by stopping the dying it can help. The problem is the damage may well be done. If the dye has been getting into the routes of the hair it can then be absorbed deep into the cells and have permanently damaged these.





Alot of research has shown that hair loss relates back to deficiencies in diet and daily regime. If you have damaged the core cells of the hair, these need to be repaired. This is done by supplementing your diet every day. I found a great natural remedy at www.bring-my-hair-back.com maybe worth a try.





First thing to do is to stop dying and give it a rest, see what happens. I strongly advise supplementing as soon as possible though.
yes that can lead to hair loss but it depends on what type of hair you have and if you look after it, for example if you straighten or blow dry your hair every day and don't use a protection or you don't tretment your hair then yes i that could affect your hair but there are ways around hair loss, you should tretment your hair every week to every 2 weeks go to your hair dresser and they will direct you to the best tretments and make suer you get the right amount of vitamins.


But if you take care then once ebery 3 ,months is fine :)





hope i have helped :)
coloring your hair every three moths for many years can lead to hair damage. like dry, damaged, thin, and maybe even hair loss earlier than the usual age of hair loss.





It also depends on how much hair your color if your just doing your roots you should be okay, defiantly better than dying your hair from brunette to blonde to black.. every three months..





hope this helps





p.s. there are products like shampoo and conditioner that can help strethen your hair after being colored so frequently.
NO =FACT. Once the hair leaves the follicle, it is in essence...dead.


Some hair basics =


Flat hair is curly hair.


Oval hair is wavy.


Round hair is straight.


Hair is composed of keratin (protein).


The best way for you to understand hair is...each hair is like a snake. The point being, you know how a snake is covered with scales. Well, magnified hair looks very much like that. Excessive heat and or chemicals will leave the scales (cuticle) open and away from the body of the shaft. Giving the hair a rough damaged feel.


EG...how a perm (short for permanent wave) works is, the perming solution (alkaline) softens the chemical bonds in the hair and the hair accepts whatever shape is imposed upon it. Once removed (rinsed out), the neutralizer (acid) is applied and hardens the chemical bonds in the hair, locking in whatever shape imposed upon the hair. So if you think of it as the “snake”....the scales open up away from the body. You roll up the snake and force the scales to close back...now you have a curly snake(and probably very ticked off).


Products (shampoo, conditioner, etc...) are rated on a PH scale...the higher the number the higher the alkaline content (alkaline = bad = can be found in dirt = cheap and abundant). The lower the PH number the higher the acid content (acids = good = man made, thus not cheap).


Colour (professional) is composed of very small colour molecules, and activated by developer (hydrogen peroxide). Drug store colour is comprised of much larger molecules, thus the often experienced fading and harshness. The developer comes in various strengths = the higher the strength, the higher the lift (lightening). This is only acceptable to a point, then lightener (bleach) must be implemented with a lower level of developer. Maintaining the hairs elasticity is crucial = (Once elasticity is lost via excessive chemical processes the hair will become very brittle when dry and prone to breakage. When wet, chemically over processed hair will be like corn silk and stretch like crazy and snap off). The developer assists the colour molecules to penetrate the shaft at which point the expand and fill the shaft. Once the developer is added to the colour, the application process must be completed quickly.


The hair bulb (known as the root to most) sits inside the follicle and the papilla (the true root) is attached to the bottom of the bulb. Think of it as an onion, the roots attach to the onion and the soil around the onion bulb is the follicle.


Now that you can recognize the fact that I am a master stylist of 20+ years. Imagine the top soil not cared for (hard like baked clay) and the earth without nutrients to feed the onion. How will the onion survive?


Although I’ve exaggerated slightly = “top soil hard like clay”, I’m sure you get the point. It’s all about the scalp. The blood and lymph supply is the earth, and the top soil is the scalp. It has to be taken care of and fed. If not something has to suffer.
Try using some hair loss prevention treatment with beforehand or after you die your hair.I was just browsing yahoo answers and i saw someone saing something about http://www.provillus.com/?aid=592389 that you can get like a 2 week trial so i don't know i haven't tryed it myself but .... since you can get a free trial why not.Just my 2c:P
