Hair loss during shampooing may result from nutritional deficiencies, endocrine imbalances, reduced immunity, or excessive androgen secretion. Additionally, using low-quality hair care products in daily life may irritate the local hair follicles, thereby triggering hair shedding. Frequent hair perming or dyeing can also contribute to hair loss during shampooing.
