Hair Problems: Spiritual Meaning, Causes & More

As part of your hair’s normal growth cycle, losing a little hair every day is normal. Most people’s hair grows back, so they keep a full head of hair. But illness, hormone changes, stress, ageing, and genetic conditions can all mess with your hair’s growth cycle. 

The most common type of hair loss is called androgenic alopecia. It affects about 80 million people in the United States.

Causes of Hair Problems

There are many things that can cause hair problems. Among the most common are:

• Hair loss that is passed down through genes 
• Illnesses caused by fungi on the scalp.
• Styles that pull the hair tight (such as braids or tight ponytails).
• Haircare may cause damage because of how it’s made (including perms and bleach).
• Changes in hormones (such as pregnancy, childbirth or menopause).
• Medical treatment (such as chemotherapy and certain medications).
• Nutritional deficiencies 
• Stressful events 

If medical problems are not the cause of your hair problem, it could be an emotional or spiritual problem.

Spiritual Reasons and Cures:

Spiritual Reason for Baldness

People go bald when they abuse their power or try to control others. The balding person usually doesn’t care what other people think and thinks their own beliefs are the right ones. This person wants to be obeyed and enjoys it. Unfortunately, someone with this kind of personality isn’t in touch with who they are, which hurts the quality of their relationships and makes them feel bad about themselves.

Spiritual Cure for Baldness

Your body is trying to tell you about the importance of self-awareness and acceptance. You shouldn’t force your beliefs on other people. Instead of trying to change or suppress your authoritarian tendencies, embrace them and find ways to work with them. No one in charge feels the need to advertise their status. Simply accepting yourself as you are, flaws and all, will give you the confidence to grow into the person you were meant to be rather than the person you’ve been trying to convince yourself you should be.

Spiritual Reason for Alopecia, Dandruff, Oily Hair and Gray Hair

Hair problems can be due to overreaction to psychological trauma which can cause a person to feel helpless, despairing, or overexcited, all of which can emerge as an excessive preoccupation with material concerns. This happens when a person identifies too strongly with the external environment and the event at hand.

The hair acts as an antenna connecting the mind to the energy of the universe (the DIVINE). Damage to the scalp or a lack of faith in divine energy, the source of life from which we draw the wisdom to build our own lives, are both symptoms of a lack of confidence in or a weak connection to this source. Our strength and vitality are weakened by this uncertainty. Keep in mind that hair not only covers and protects the scalp but also gives us a feeling of being shielded from harm and connected to our inner God.

Spiritual Cure for Alopecia, Dandruff, Oily Hair and Gray Hair

Your hair is a physical reminder to reconnect with your inner self and quit projecting your identity into the world.

While the things you own are certainly essential, they are not the sum total of your worth as a human being. If you turn on your antenna, you’ll get the energy that can help you deal with your troubles. You’ll be calm, centred, and clear.

Meditation for Hair Problems

Every day, focus your thoughts on the top of your head and imagine your hair growing like seeds in a garden. Then, say out loud, “My hair grows fast, thick, and evenly.”

Alternatively, you can sow seeds (such as barley grass or wheat grass, which resemble hair strands) and intentionally care for their growth. Think of them as a metaphor for your hair. You should imagine that your hair is growing together with them.
