Is hair loss more common in summer?
A study conducted by the British Journal of Dermatology, which analysed Google searches for terms related to hair loss between 2004 and 2016, showed that the greatest spikes came during summer and autumn. Although this research doesn’t actually prove that the people searching for the terms are suffering from hair loss, and it doesn’t point to a biological reason behind it, it’s clearly a common concern.
Of course, losing between 50 and 100 hairs a day is completely normal, and it can be more noticeable if you’ve gone a few days without brushing or washing your hair, where it may seem as if larger clumps are coming out. If you’re noticing it more over the warmer months, there are a few potential reasons for this.
