IS THE AGE OF BALDNESS DROPPING?

Following the latest research, the countries with the highest rates of baldness worldwide have been identified. These studies reveal the effects of genetic factors, lifestyle, and environmental influences on hair loss. Especially in some regions, a large portion of men begin to experience hair loss from a young age.

According to the research results, a large portion of men living in places with the highest rates of baldness face hair loss starting from their early 30s.

WHAT ARE THE ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS IN BALDNESS?

Environmental factors play an important role in baldness alongside genetic predisposition. Lifestyle elements such as stress, unhealthy diet, air pollution, smoking, and irregular sleep can trigger and accelerate hair loss. Furthermore, excessive use of chemical-based hair products and frequent heat treatments weaken hair follicles, increasing the risk of baldness. Additionally, it is said that high mineral content in water sources in some regions also affects hair loss.
