Ashton’s personal experience and tips for dealing with covid hair loss:
Create a routine to monitor your hair.
Try paying attention to your body and whether it is saying it is stressed. I suggest
giving yourself a special day every week. One day to relax, unwind, and give yourself
some extra care, love, and attention. Call it your weekly self-care day where you might
give yourself a massage, have a nice bath with relaxing salts, do some skincare or hair
care masks, and really release some tension and stress that has built up over the week.
Lay down, sip some of our Higher Self tea, play some music, light a candle, put some
cucumber eye masks and face masks on, and really take a load off. While you’re doing
your weekly self-care day, you might as well do some scalp checks on those days to
check for hair loss, hair thinning, or balding spots. Maybe take a moment and ask
yourself what your hair condition is like: “Has my hair been getting thinner or shedding
more than usual?” “Is my scalp irritated or inflamed?” “Is my hair becoming dry and
feeling extra fragile?” Then put together an action plan based on your observations
Incorporate scalp & hair therapy rooted in earth medicine that not only focuses on the outside but also the inside.

While it might be impossible to stop stress-induced or situational-induced hair loss and hair shedding flare-ups, it is still possible to try working on the regrowth process and to try taming the inflammation. The sooner we notice hair loss is occurring, the sooner we can begin incorporating solutions. While stress can be a trigger for hair loss, some hair loss conditions involve having increased inflammation in some areas. Attempting to boost hair growth and reduce inflammation in the affected areas is a great method to getting your hair back to its full thickness.

Practicing Stress-Relief Techniques to Alleviate Stress.
There are many stress-relief and relaxation techniques and practices you can try and practice at home to relieve stress. After having a long and arduous day at work or school, having an activity to look forward to when you get home is a way to reward yourself and release the stress and toxic energy you had to deal with. Try to maintain different hobbies that you enjoy and see what activities can be easily accessible to you and give it a go! If the hobby or activity has become enjoyable enough, try setting it up as your motivation to do well for the following day at work or on that next upcoming exam. Some techniques to help with stress include yoga, reiki sessions, meditation or soothing music, karaoke, going to that one kickboxing class your friend keeps telling you about, taking a walk or hiking with nature. Do something bold to where you can scream it out like go-karting or ziplining.
