WHY DOES HAIR FALL OUT AFTER COVID-19?<\/h2>\n

When fighting infection or disease, the body uses a lot of energy, so it takes resources from non-vital functions such as nail and hair growth and instead used to help the body fight the disease and recover.<\/h4>\n

As a result, hair follicles enter into the \u201crest phase\u201d of the hair cycle all at once, instead of in various phases. This type of hair loss is called \u201ctelogen effluvium.\u201d It isn\u2019t permanent, but can be jarring and scary for clients.<\/h4>\n

Stress hormones are normally useful as they prepare us for \u2018fight or flight\u2019 mode. Hormones are released, blood glucose is mobilized and ready to feed the muscles and to repair the immune system. Unfortunately, it is often at the expense of hair and nail growth.<\/h4>\n
