Your hairs fall to much when you wash your hair why?

Answer 1

Here are some things to consider:

1. If your hair was recently braided up or had extensions, it could be the days/weeks' worth of shedding coming out at once

· Everyone loses between 40 and 120 strands a day

2.

A vitamin deficiency; iron deficiency may be the cause

· Hair loss can occur through poor dieting

3.

Hair loss is normal, especially in the fall months

· Typically November & December when hair reaches maturity in its growth cycle

4.

People with fine hair tend to have more hair loss

5. Some women experience hair loss with pregnancy or as part of post-pregnancy hormonal changes

· Other women experience hair loss when going on or off (usually off) the Birth Control pill

6.

Illness or intense stress-sometimes hair loss occurs as a result of illness

· Stress, excessive weight loss, & thyroid problems can also cause hair loss

If you're really worried, ask your doctor, however, experts say you really only need to worry if your part is getting wider or you can see your scalp through your hair. For severe cases, you might consult a "trichologist," a physician who specializes in hair loss.

Extra tip: If you're a woman, you won't experience male-pattern baldness. Women's hair tends to thin all over. The only FDA-approved hair loss treatment is minoxidil. Minoxidil works in 60-70 percent of cases by improving the follicle's ability to produce hair.
