Women And Their Hair
Posted by: | CommentsHair loss is normally seen as a ‘guy’s issue’ as it is quite a common sight to see bald men or men with receding hairline. However, what many people don’t realize (or rather, what many women manage to hide) is that hair loss in women is just as common. Moreover, it is more devastating for the woman when it does happen. This is because women see their hair as the main part of their beauty, it is something that most women take pride in and thus, the psychological impact of hair loss in women is much greater than in men. The good thing about hair loss in women is that it normally does not result in total hair loss unlike the male counterparts.
