Naomi Campbell always looks picture perfect on the runway, but earlier this week the supermodel was spotted with bald patch around her forehead while on holiday with her billionaire boyfriend. Her hair loss may be due to excessive use of hair extensions and weaves for most of her modelling career. The extensions pull on the natural hair causing it to break, and usually affects the hairline just above the forehead or the sides, where the hair is weaker. It may take months or years for the hair to grow back if proper hair care is implemented. Â
But if the pulling continues the hair will never grow back and the only option is a hair transplant. Regardless of her bald hair she looks amazing for someone of her age. Â Here are a few tips on how to maintain your hair to avoid such catastrophe. You need to give your hair a break every now and then and avoid staying with extensions or weave on for a long time.
Avoid applying direct heat to your hair. Avoid stressing/pulling of your hair into ponytail every time. Â Take proper care of your hair by making use of pre-shampooing, pre-conditioning and protein and hot oil treatments. Eat balance diet, stop smoking, cut caffeine intake, and drink plenty of water daily. Massage your scalp to circulate blood and bring nutrients to the scalp.
