Putting wet hair into a ponytail or bun might feel practical, but it often does the opposite. That’s because:
• Wet hair stretches and swells, making it easier to break
• Tight hairstyles can contribute to tension alopecia — thinning caused by pulling at the roots
Tip: If you absolutely need to tie it back, choose a loose braid or soft scrunchie, or use a silk hair tie.
