Does hairspray cause hair fall?

I used to spray a lot of setting product for college events and my hair started breaking like crazy. I realized the spray was making my hair stiff, and combing it when dry was just pulling it out. Now I always wash it off first and my hair is back to normal.

Actually, my doctor told me that hairspray is safe for occasional use. The issue starts when the alcohol in these sprays dries out your hair shafts, making them highly prone to snapping. It is the physical breakage from styling, not follicular hair loss.

I used to blame my styling products for all the hair fall, but it turned out my thyroid levels were highly unstable. Please don't rely only on changing your hairspray. Go for regular thyroid checks and follow up with your doctor to rule out internal issues.

I have tried all sorts of home remedies like aloe vera packs to cure my hair fall. From my experience, if you are using hairsprays often, just make sure to deep-condition your hair with warm coconut oil once a week. It keeps the dryness away and prevents breakage.

I style my hair almost daily for work. Hairspray only causes hair fall if you buy cheap brands and don't wash your hair regularly. Just get a decent water-soluble spray and shampoo your hair properly, you'll be fine.
