Edit Does getting a sunburn effec hair loss

<p>If you’re a cat or dog owner, you may have noticed that they shed a lot more fur during summer, as they lose the winter coat that they grew to keep them warm. Well, it seems as if <strong>humans could follow a similar pattern.</strong> It does make sense that as the weather heats up, our bodies would find a way to keep us cooler, by shedding unnecessary hair.</p> <p><strong>One Swedish study</strong>, which monitored hair loss in 800 women over the course of six years, showed that they generally had a greater proportion of ‘telogen’ hairs during summer, meaning hairs in their final stages of growth – the most likely hairs to fall out. It seems as if the scalp holds on to hair during early summer to protect the scalp from sunburn, and then sheds it towards the end of summer.</p>
