With today’s focus on beauty standards, this result of the keto diet might be the one that most people dread. Any change in diet can cause temporary hair loss, especially when calories are being restricted. However, don’t panic.

Also, if you happen to be blessed with a thick head of hair, it might not be a noticeable amount lost.

So wait a little and soon your hair follicles will produce new hair and your hair should be back to normal in a few months to a year.
