Is it good to wash your hair too much?

1. Causes decreased immunity

Night is the time when Yang energy is weak and Yin energy is strong. When washing your hair, your head will come into contact with water, causing heat from the head to begin to radiate. The brain's ability to withstand the cold begins to weaken.

When heat production decreases and heat dissipation increases, problems with temperature regulation will occur, causing the body temperature to be unable to maintain normal metabolism, leading to a decrease in immunity and the occurrence of disease.

2. Cause respiratory diseases

When washing your hair, the high water temperature will cause the capillaries in your head to expand, and the speed at which the body dissipates heat will increase a lot. However, after washing your hair, the moisture in your hair will still be evaporating. During this heat dissipation process, the body will get cold, the reflex respiratory tract will begin to contract, and the blood flow will decrease accordingly, causing the upper respiratory tract resistance to begin to decrease.

Some latent bacteria begin to invade the body, causing respiratory difficulties, symptoms such as colds, coughs, runny noses, etc., affecting health.

3. Cause hair loss

Washing your hair at night will also cause the heat dissipation of the head to accelerate, and the blood circulation in the head will be disrupted, which will not be able to maintain the normal supply to the scalp, which can easily cause hair to start falling out.

Wet hair is actually very sensitive. As the hair slowly dries, it will become very brittle and begin to fall out.

4. Cause insomnia

Going to bed before your hair is dry after washing can easily cause insomnia. This is because wet hair will cause water to be retained in the head, which will cause blood stasis over time and block the meridians.

If the temperature drops significantly at night, it will easily cause moisture to enter the head, causing the invasion of cold evil, affecting the function of the brain, and then affecting normal sleep and causing insomnia.

5. Cause dizziness

There is another thing you need to pay attention to when washing your hair at night, that is, it will cause dizziness, especially if you do not wipe your hair clean before going to bed and fall asleep with wet hair, it will cause dampness and cold to invade the body, and headaches are common.
