These popular hairstyles might be causing hair loss

Working from home has made it easier not to need to do much with hair :D

I often wear my hair in a ponytail or a top knot but doing so does not seem to be causing hair loss.

I usually have my hair in a bun but its never tight. I wear pony tails occasionally but also never pulled tight. I can definitely see how consistent pulling of the hair can cause hair loss but I never thought it be permanently damaging! I've experienced a bit of hairloss before but from a nutritional deficiency.

I have to wear my hair up for work so it’s a rare day when I don’t wear a ponytail. I don’t like them tight but it’s a pain if it’s too loose and bits fall out at the front.

I have my hair up most days. Some pull their hair back as it gives them an instant face lift. Most of my hair loss has been hormonal or health reasons. I can see that having it pulled back so tight could cause trauma.

I remember seeing an elderly lady with a tightly pulled back pony. Her hairline was unnaturally too far back.

I wish I could wear my hair in a tight style!

I wear a long tail most work days , I don't do tight buns.

I wear my hair like this a lot and still have heaps of hair

I used to have to wear my hair in a tight bun for ballet classes when I was a child, and that gave me headaches then. I haven't worn my hair tightly tied back in years, I wear it in a pony tail very occasionally now.

On the subject on nits- this is one good thing about all the lockdowns in Melbourne. No nits on the kids this year!!!

Interesting... But don't agree...

Its a great look, maybe just for occasional use

I used to wear my hair up in a high pony tail wrapped into a bun while running and working out but found that I had handfuls of hair breaking so now I wear a low ponytail that is slightly loose and that has helped a lot. It's not as practical, but I'm trying to save what little strands I have left at this point!

I do wear ponytail most of the time.But always make sure it's not too tight.

I don’t wear my hair in tight styles, I use to in summers but I don’t bother with them any more

I tend to put my hair back in a tight bun so I'll have to stop doing that

I don't wear my hair tight as it gives me a headache so I'm good!

If I'm at home or exercising I always wear my hair up in a ponytail.

I have short hair now but even when it was longer I never tied it tightly

Short hair here, no tight hair styles

I don't use hair pins anymore, thank goodness for working from home! It is just messy.

I know a lot of women who this has happened to but it isn't a problem for me because I had my hip length hair cut off when I was 13 and I've had short hair ever since. Mind you, there have been loads of occasions over the years where I would have loved to put my hair in a ponytail.

I wear a pony most days. My hair falls out but I have heaps of it. I have thyroid problems.

It's too hard to pull my hair too tight. My hair wants to fall forward onto my face, so pulling it up tight would involve a lot of slicking back with something just to get it there. Sometimes I can't even stand just pulling it gently back into a clip or slide on the side of my head. Oh the joys of having a lot of hair. I do put it up in a loose messy bun sometimes in summer, but most days I can't stand the pressure on top of my head either, and I never pull it tight, ever.
