According to researchers at the Mayo Clinic, daily stress can affect hair health along with the rest of the entire body. There are three ways in which stress can affect hair health. Telogen effluvium occurs when stress pushes a significant amount of hair follicles into a resting phase where hair may start falling out within a few months.

Alopecia areata is an autoimmune condition in which the immune system attacks hair follicles, causing baldness.
