Just found this article saying that besides cancer and heart diseases, smoking may also very well cause hair loss!
Smoking has been known to promote the level of DHT (dihydrotestosterone) in the hair follicles and we all know that high levels of DHT is one of the causes of hair loss.
According to studies, DHT levels in randomly sampled smokers were 13% higher in smokers than in non smokers.
The toxins in the smoke can also harm hair follicles and damage hormones.
A team recently studied a group of 740 men in Taiwan, aged 40 to 91 years and found a greater rate of hair loss among the smokers, a risk that grew with increasing smoking.
