Hair Fall in Men: Causes and a Practical Care Routine

Hair fall in men is frequently linked to genetics, but genetics is rarely the whole story. Scalp health, stress and daily habits also shape how much hair a man sheds and how thick it looks over time.

Androgenetic (Pattern) Hair Loss

This is the most common cause of hair thinning in men and is driven by genetic sensitivity to DHT, a hormone that gradually shrinks hair follicles. It typically follows a recognisable pattern starting at the temples or crown.

Scalp Neglect and Buildup

Infrequent washing, excess oil production and product buildup can clog follicles and create an unfavourable scalp environment. A clean, well-cared-for scalp is a simple but often-skipped foundation for hair health.

Stress, Sleep and Lifestyle

Poor sleep, high stress and inconsistent routines are known to push hair into a shedding phase. While these factors alone rarely cause permanent loss, they can worsen an existing genetic tendency.

A Simple Routine That Helps

Regular scalp massage improves circulation to hair follicles, while a lightweight, non-greasy oil supports the scalp without clogging pores. AYHURA's Advance Hair Growth Oil is formulated with Jojoba Oil for exactly this reason — it closely resembles the scalp's natural oils.
