Hair Gel and Loss Effect?

[sifteri]

Hi guys,

Today's youth commonly use various hair gels to style their hair. Do you think these gels have any side effects on hair? Could they be a major cause of hair loss? Hair gels contain chemicals that may affect the hair roots.

Hair gels, especially those with alcohol or harsh chemicals, can dry out the scalp, weaken hair strands, and cause buildup if overused. While they don't directly trigger hair loss, prolonged use can lead to breakage and scalp irritation, potentially contributing to thinning. Opt for alcohol-free gels and maintain proper scalp hygiene to minimize risk.
