Understanding Hair Loss: Common Causes

Hair loss is rarely caused by a single factor. The most common types seen in Singapore include:

[Most common]  Androgenetic Alopecia

Male and female pattern hair loss driven by genetic sensitivity to DHT. Presents as a receding hairline in men and diffuse thinning in women.

[Temporary]  Telogen Effluvium

Triggered by stress, illness, surgery, or hormonal changes. Hair sheds in large volumes as follicles shift into a resting phase simultaneously.

[Autoimmune]  Alopecia Areata

The immune system mistakenly attacks hair follicles, causing sudden patchy hair loss across the scalp or body.

[Mechanical]  Traction Alopecia

Caused by repetitive tension from tight hairstyles — braids, buns, and extensions. Often overlooked as a cause of hairline recession.

[Hormonal]  Hormonal Hair Loss

Fluctuations in oestrogen, progesterone, thyroid, and androgens trigger shedding — particularly common during perimenopause and postpartum recovery.

[Scalp-related]  Scalp Inflammation

Chronic scalp conditions such as seborrheic dermatitis, dandruff, and microbiome imbalance can accelerate follicle miniaturisation over time.

What to Look for in a Hair Loss Treatment

Not all hair loss treatments are equal. When evaluating your options, ask:

•      Does it target the root cause or just mask symptoms?

•      Is it backed by clinical evidence?

•      Does it support scalp health alongside hair regrowth?

•      Is it sustainable without long-term medication dependency?

•      Is the treatment personalised to your hair loss type and stage?

•      Does the clinic assess scalp health before recommending a plan?

Treatments that work purely on the surface — such as some over-the-counter topicals — may slow shedding temporarily but do not address underlying scalp inflammation, poor circulation, or follicle miniaturisation that drives chronic hair loss.

Hair Loss Treatment for Men vs Women

For men

Androgenetic alopecia is the primary concern, and early intervention is key to preserving density before follicle miniaturisation becomes permanent. Read our guide on male hair loss treatment in Singapore, or explore male pattern baldness stages and what you can do at each stage.

For women

Female hair loss is often multifactorial — involving hormones, nutrition, stress, and scalp health simultaneously. Explore female hair loss treatment options in Singapore, or read about hormonal hair loss treatment for women.

When Should You Seek Hair Loss Treatment?

The most important factor in treatment outcomes is timing. Follicles that have been dormant for extended periods are significantly harder to reactivate. Seek a professional scalp assessment if you notice any of the following:

•      Increased hair on your pillow, in the shower, or in your brush

•      Visible thinning at the crown or along your parting

•      A hairline that appears to be receding

•      Scalp that feels itchy, tight, or inflamed

•      Overall reduction in hair density or volume

Early treatment is always more effective than delayed treatment. Read more about early signs of hair thinning you shouldn’t ignore.
