8 Bad Habits That Are Thinning Your Hair

Over-Washing – Washing your hair too frequently strips it of natural oils, leading to dryness and breakage, contributing to thinning.

Heat Styling – Excessive use of heat tools like straighteners and curling irons weakens hair fibers, causing damage and thinning over time.

Tight Hairstyles – Constantly wearing tight ponytails or braids can cause traction alopecia, a form of hair loss due to stress on the follicles.

Poor Diet – A lack of essential nutrients like vitamins A, C, and E can lead to weak, brittle hair that is more prone to thinning.
