Hair Loss 101

Why Does Hair Loss Happen?
Hair loss can be influenced by so many factors, from genetics and hormone changes to lifestyle choices.
Stress, diet, and even hair care habits can all impact hair strength.
It's perfectly normal to lose some hair each day, but sometimes the body can shed more than usual, responding to things like hormonal shifts or even life stressors.
Why It Happens More This Time of Year
Have you ever noticed your hair seems to shed more in autumn? That's seasonal shedding!
During summer, we hold onto extra hair to protect our scalp from the sun.
As the weather cools, it's like our body recalibrates and lets go of those extra strands.
Dry, cooler air can also make hair more brittle, making it easier to lose a little extra volume during these months.
Hacks and Affordable Buys to Treat Hair loss
The great news? You don't need to spend a fortune on pricey treatments to support your hair.
Try daily scalp massages—they're so simple but really help boost blood flow to the follicles.
Castor oil is another fantastic, budget-friendly option that's rich in nutrients to strengthen your strands.
Adding a bit more protein to your diet and a biotin supplement can also work wonders for overall hair health.
Products to Avoid
Steer clear of products with high levels of alcohol, sulphates, and parabens - they can be drying and damage hair over time.
Heat styling and chemical treatments can also cause breakage, so try to use them sparingly.
Instead, look for gentle, hydrating formulas to support your scalp and keep hair healthier through the seasons.
"For the ones who don't know… it fades away over time," penned a third.

"Looks great actually and gives depth,' claimed a fifth
Someone else added: "That's brilliant actually and it makes a huge difference!"

Garron Noone returns to social media after self-imposed content creation break

Online comedian Garron Noone has made his return to social media following his self-imposed break from his various platforms, as well as his live gigs. Two months ago, Garron announced that he would have to say 'a little goodbye' to his followers as he prioritised his mental health recovery over his social media presence but this week, he provided an update to his fans. The Co Mayo man broke his Instagram silence as he shared some of the thoughts he'd been jotting down over the past few months. "Hello, how are ye getting on? I haven't made a video in two months so I've got two months of complaining built up in me but don't worry, I have written it down so let's just start cracking through it," he said. "First of all, the past two months have been far too f**king warm for my liking. I don't mind being hot and I don't mind being cold but I f**king detest being warm. I'm struggling to sleep most nights because I'm f**king moist, I'm not even really sweating. My body is just f**king threatening to sweat - it's like a sneeze you don't get to do. "And it's too warm for me to put a blanket on me and if I don't have a blanket on me, my body doesn't know I'm going to sleep. It thinks I'm just f**king lying in bed... I should probably move on." The TikTok sensation had previously explained how he needed a short break after posting videos daily for years and had been putting too much pressure on himself. He is back now, however, it seems! Garron Noone on Late Late Show (Image: Instagram/latelaterte) In typical 'Garron Noone style', the influencer and musician then went on a rant about a recent meal before venting about Scrabble frustrations. He continued: "The other day, I got a sandwich and a soup of the day - can we f**king stop with this 'soup of the day' stuff? I don't want to gamble with soup. And what soup was it? F**king tomato soup! The worst soup. "Tomato soup is not a soup. It's a sauce. You're not f**king fooling me. "C**t is not a word in scrabble - I'm f**ing running out of time - anyway, I lost a triple word because of it. Follow me. I'm delicious."
