What is hair pain?

If you shake your hair in the evening after it has been in a ponytail all day, you can experience annoying pain in your scalp:hair pain. anyone who has ever suffered from honor immediately knows what we mean.

Why do you sometimes get hair pain?
Every hair grows from a hair follicle. When you wear your hair up, such as when you wear your hair down, there is pressure on the hair follicles. Your hair follicles are part of the nervous system and so nerves are also put under pressure. To reduce pressure, your hair follicles adapt to how your hair looks. That is why you often only feel the pain as soon as you loosen your hair again, at that moment the hair follicles adjust their direction again.

What should you pay attention to? If you wear your hair very often, the follicles can become irritated, which can make you more prone to hair pain. Usually hair pain is harmless, although it can't hurt to give your hair a little more rest. Hair pain can sometimes arise during periods of stress. If so, try to schedule some time for yourself. In some cases, hair pain can lead to hair loss.
