Is it true that you lose lot of your hair when you do Hot Yoga?
Is there a way to avoid that as I started hot yoga 2 months ago and I just love it. It is already toning me.
Hi Skhanna
To be honest I have never heard that one is more likely to lose lots of hair because of a hot yoga practice. Is that happening to you? If it is can you say how long it’s been happening?
Hair is constantly growing and it also constantly falls out. Sometimes you wash your hair and find your hands come out with no hair or a couple of strands and other times quite a lot comes out. Unless it’s interminable and lots are coming out then it is probably normal. There are also hair loss/growth patterns that have to do with hormones. Eg the patterns are different during and post-pregnancy.
I wonder if there is anything you can tell me that prompted that question. You may simply have been told that by someone (who?).
It’s great to read that you are seeing some great physical benefits.
Namaste
