We all know that Insomnia can wreak havoc on our mental health but the implications on our physical health are much less discussed. How strong, exactly, is the correlation between our sleep and beauty?

Research has shown that a lack of good quality sleep can lead to a wide variety of symptoms within the body. In some cases this can even trigger the beginning of inherited issues that may otherwise have taken much longer to appear, male pattern baldness and female hair loss are good examples of this. Prolonged lack of sleep can also result in higher levels of stress. Stress in turn can compound the negative effects placed on the hair growth cycle.
