Do Hats Cause Hair Loss
Hats do keep your scalp & hair safe from the UV rays which can cause damage. Controlled and limited exposure to the sun is key. The sun is not 100% bad for your scalp and hair if you spend anywhere between 10-30 minutes per day without a hat, the sun can actually combat and prevent hair loss.
The vitamin D that the sun provides also creates new hair follicles which promotes hair growth. Wearing a hat or using a natural spf may provide protection while being outdoors. A good habit is parting your hair in the opposite direction to lessen the exposure on one side of your scalp. You can also use organic avocado oil or organic sunflower oil on the hair that’s exposed to protect from the UV rays. These oils have many benefits for your skin as well and make great carrier oils.
