Does going out with wet hair in cold weather cause a cold?

No.



Does going out with wet hair in cold weather cause a cold?

no, that is an old wive's tail...wet hair and cold winter does not give you a cold...however it does make you feel very cold which may lower your resistance and make you prone to all kinds of ailments...so, watch that



Does going out with wet hair in cold weather cause a cold?

That's what my mom always told me. She said ear infections though.



Does going out with wet hair in cold weather cause a cold?

Virus's cause colds, going out in cold weather with wet hair makes your body work harder to maintain homeostasis . . .thus it weakens your immune system making you more susceptible to getting a cold if you are around others with colds.



Does going out with wet hair in cold weather cause a cold?

nope tha's all a myth. it was first started by a paren twho was very concerned about their child. you can only catch a cold from germs. make sure you wash your habd so you can prevent one!



Does going out with wet hair in cold weather cause a cold?

You can catch pneumonia easily that way,i know two people who did it and had to be hospitalized



Does going out with wet hair in cold weather cause a cold?

no



Does going out with wet hair in cold weather cause a cold?

no, if that were true i'd be in sick since the age of 12.



Does going out with wet hair in cold weather cause a cold?

Older people say you can, but I dont know because I thought the reason people caught colds were due to the viruse being in the air. I body, if not mistaking, have natural mechanisms to keep our temp intake. Thats why we sweat when its hot outside but our inside temp. remains the same. Ask a doc.



Does going out with wet hair in cold weather cause a cold?

Yes it does. You can also tell a witch by dunking her in the lake until she confesses. Also, in case you were wondering, toad urine is a surefire wart remover. Without a doubt, cold weather spontaneously generates bacteria and viruses inside your body. Be very careful!!



Does going out with wet hair in cold weather cause a cold?

Doctors say no. Viruses cause colds.



But I think there must be some connection, because everytime I get sweaty working, then chilled....I come down with a cold a day or two later. Maybe getting chilled like that lowers resistance to the viruses.....



Does going out with wet hair in cold weather cause a cold?

No. Colds are caused by viruses and not the weather. With that said you could catch a chill (get physically cold) from being in the cold with wet hair. Being cold makes you more susceptible to catching one.



Does going out with wet hair in cold weather cause a cold?

Dear Sexy Dude... unless someone sneezes or coughs in your face, nope. The cold will not cause you to catch a cold. However, if it's wet, your hair might freeze, so make sure you have it styled the way you want it!



Does going out with wet hair in cold weather cause a cold?

The cold itself does not cause illness. It is the cold that effects your immunity, and akes you more vulnerable to illness. But generally a short time outdoors with wet hair is not going to harm you.



Does going out with wet hair in cold weather cause a cold?

Colds are caused by a virus. You are more likely to get a cold virus from someone sneezing and not washing their hands and you touchng an object they touched.Good handwashing is one of the best preventions .



Does going out with wet hair in cold weather cause a cold?

It gives you a headache but you cannot actually catch a cold from cold- its a common misconception. You might get a headache or get chills and cold because it is wet, afterall, and so you should be fine with wet, stylish hair in the cold- but then it might get stiff from too much cold and start to act frozen. Good luck



Does going out with wet hair in cold weather cause a cold?

YES.



But it is not the wet hair that is "causing" the cold.



The wet hair cools your body temperature, so that your body has to use energy to keep warm.



That energy would have otherwise been used to fight off viruses that are in the air.



Since the body now has to use some of its resources to keep warm, it becomes more susceptible to the virus in the air, because the Immune System is weakened.



So, yes, you are more likely to get a cold with wet hair in cold weather.
