Important Knowledge On Hair Thinning From Weave

By Kenya England


Convenient low maintenance hairstyles such as weaves have become prominent in modern days. This is largely because the fast pace at which life moves demands that less time be spent on things like hair-dos. But the advent of these hairstyles has also brought on an onslaught of conditions such as hair thinning from weave.

This is a situation that can occurs whether the style is done professionally or at home. It usually results from the techniques used to create the hairstyle along with the methods used to maintain it. Sometimes even the removal of the hair-do can trigger hair thinning or loss.

One of the methods of installing weaves is by sewing them in. This method entails a process in which the stylist first creates some cornrows in the customers hair. This is followed by the sewing of wefts of locks into the cornrows. The tightness of the cornrows themselves places intense pressure on the follicles causing breakage and loss as well as thinning. More of this happens when the thread is cut from the cornrows, taking with it some of the strands, as the style is removed.

This thinning effect is often because of the glue that is used during the installation of weaves. The glue is often used to line cornrows of hair to which each waft of locks is attached. When this is being removed, original strands rooted in the scalp can become attached to the glue and then get pulled away from their roots leading to thinning or bald spots.

Much of the weave-triggered balding or thinning that occurs is attributed to infections of the scalp. These infections are often the result of tight braiding techniques that precede the actually installation of the wefts. The braids are sometimes so tight that they break the skin. The broken skin becomes infected when dirt and germs get inside. Unfortunately a lot of people ignore the start of an infection and do not get it dealt with until it has done considerable damage.

One of the reasons that women's hair gets thin when they wear this style is the methods they use to maintain the hairstyle. Some women attempt to lengthen the life of their weaves and this is something that all cosmetic experts warn against as it causes follicle damage and strand loss. Experts advised that the typical weave should be removed after twelve weeks and do not recommend extending its life beyond this time.

There is yet another culprit behind these balding or thinning locks condition. This culprit is allergic reactions. Many wearers of the convenient style do not realize that they may be allergic to the glue or the synthetic material in the tresses. They sometimes do not notice or ignore the signs of an allergic reaction until it spirals out of control and does severe damage to the follicles and scalp.

For many women the hair loss may be temporary, but for some it turns into a permanent condition. This has a really negative impact on the woman's self esteem. This is why so many victims of this conditions seek the assistance of experts in the fields of dermatology or trichology.
