It’s been several months since my last bleaching. Why does my hair keep falling out? Take this elasticity test
Let’s find out why your hair is falling out.
Do you agree?
- For this test, you’ll take three hairs from your head.
- Two from the sides and one from the back of your head.
- Take one hair and stretch it slowly and gently.
- If it springs back and behaves like a rubber band, your hair is fine.
Do this same test with all three hairs.
If the test is successful, the hair loss may be due to a problem that has nothing to do with bleaching.I recommend that you schedule a visit with a dermatologist.
On the other hand, if you do the test and it goes wrong, i.e. your hair breaks or curls where you straightened it, it’s sensitive and needs to regain its elasticity to stop falling out.

Cut your hair
Visit your stylist and ask him/her to trim your hair a few centimeters.
Consequently, it will stop falling out. Damaged ends are more prone to breakage. So, it’s better to start over. It’s no use having long hair if it doesn’t look nice.
Give your hair a break from chemical processes
Say goodbye to any chemical salon processes. Don’t have any treatments that involve chemicals. This could weaken your bleached hair and make it fall out even more. If you must dye your hair, use an ammonia-free hair dye.
Don’t even think about bleaching your hair or doing any keratin or straightening treatments. This would jeopardize the whole recovery and care plan.
