In the cold season, it is necessary to wear a hat – at low temperatures, blood supply deteriorates and the hair follicles begin to lack nutrition and become thinner, which ultimately leads to hair loss. However, the wrong hat can also lead to problems for the hair and scalp, FederalPress reports, citing dermatologist and trichologist Tatyana Egorova.
According to the specialist, it is contraindicated to wear hats that fit too tightly on the head. Due to compression, blood supply also deteriorates – the hair follicles lack nutrition. In addition, tight compression of the head can lead to headaches.
Another option that should not be chosen is hats made of synthetic materials. Due to the fact that the air cannot circulate normally, a greenhouse effect is created – and the head begins to sweat. As the doctor explained, wearing synthetic hats can cause dry scalp, irritation and dandruff.
The specialist notes: when it is not very cold outside, preference should be given to a light hat, and if you still have to wear a warm hat, then, for example, when going into a store, you need to take it off.
