Everyone
loses some hair every day, especially as we get older. But excessive hair loss
can be a problem. How much hair loss is normal and what should you do if you
lose more than normal?
The Seattle
Hair Loss Hair Treatment and Replacement System indicate that "During the
rest period of the cycle, the hair follicle is reaching the point of detachment
and the hair shaft bulb approaches the surface of the scalp." Daily
activities such as brushing hair, removing a ponytail or even washing and
conditioning are also part of normal daily hair loss.
In general,
you can expect to shed 50-100 hair follicles daily. For a normal and healthy
scalp, this amount is completely normal.
However, if
you have much longer hair, it may seem that you are losing more than you really
are. If you only wash your hair once a week or less, it is possible that the
day of washing you lose several days during the process of untangling and
washing.
The same
number of hairs will grow to replace the hair that has been lost; therefore,
you will have an approximately constant amount of hair follicles in the scalp
at all times.
Lose more
than normal?
If you
notice that more than 50-100 strands of hair fall out while you wash or brush
your hair, or if the follicles actually come out in large strands of hair, it
may be time to visit your doctor.
There are so
many different reasons, including excessive stress, early stages of alopecia or
lack of essential vitamins in your diet.
Excessive
hair loss can also be a sign that something more serious is happening inside
your body, but the circumstances of each patient will vary.
How to
prevent it
There is no
way to completely prevent hair loss, as it is part of the natural cycle of your
body. The detachment is necessary for new and healthy strands of hair to grow
in the place of old hair.
To make sure
you are not losing large amounts of hair, reduce stress in your life, eat a
nutrient-rich diet, drink plenty of water and exercise daily. It is important
to take steps to address hair loss on your own, but none of these tips can
replace the advice of a medical professional.
In advance,
it may be useful to try to educate yourself about the possible causes and
solutions for hair loss. Try reading these kinds of articles to limit the
concerns that may apply to you and then report them to your doctor.
