6 Unusual Signs of Dehydration You Should Know About

Being dehydrated doesn’t just mean your body is losing water — it also means you're losing electrolytes, such as salt and potassium, which help your body breathe, move, talk, and do all the other things it needs to do to stay up and running.

This is the second time I’ve had dehydration in the past 4 years, both instances were caused by frequent urination. I believe 1-2 times an hour in a 5 hour period both times. I’ve experienced the chills, fever, headache, chills, dry mouth, and just being extremely warm, from my breath to my touch. I’ve never actually experienced the food cravings. I ate a 2 egg omelette for breakfast about 8 hours ago and I feel fine. Guess that’s just me though

The only sign I got was a headache, my hair been needed to curl so I had to use curlers which put lots of weight in my head. And now I’ve put my hair into 2 ponytails and now I have a headache..idk if it’s a sign of dehydration, because o have a tender headed so when my mom des my hair it hurts sometimes but it improved. My hair always feels tight when I put fake hair in my own hair for a few days, and ponytails are said to put a lot of a weight into your scalp and keep in mind I did went skating too but I can’t find the right time to drink my daily water on a daily basis..
