Are You Experiencing Normal or Unusual Hair Shedding? 

The first course of action is to determine if you are experiencing standard, everyday shedding or abnormal hair loss. Shedding is normal, and the range is 50-100 hairs shed per day. You will notice this when you comb, brush your hair, wash your hair, style it, etc. 

If you are experiencing hair shedding of around 125 hairs per day, you are most likely undergoing hair loss. You will begin to find your hair in more places and notice several things, such as:

  • More thin hair 
  • More exposed scalp
  • A widening hair part 
  • A smaller and lighter ponytail 

These are just a few of the factors you might notice. Read below to learn what might cause these factors.
