Hair loss is particularly noticeable after showering, which may be due to chemical ingredients in shampoos and hair care products affecting the hair and scalp. During shampooing, using products unsuitable for one's hair type or excessively hot water may irritate the scalp, leading to increased hair shedding. Additionally, excessive rubbing or brushing of the hair may exacerbate hair loss. To reduce hair loss after showering, it is recommended to choose shampoos and hair care products suitable for one's hair type, avoid using excessively hot water, and handle the hair gently. If hair loss remains severe, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional to identify potential causes and receive appropriate treatment recommendations.
