Ask:
What is "normal" in hair loss each day? The longer mine gets, the more I seem to loose! Not only is there hair everywhere...on my clothes, sheets, floor, etc, but also there are handfuls in the shower or when I brush it. I have super thick hair, so it isn't as if I am missing it..but I could stuff a small pillow over the last few months!!!
Answer:
I don't know what "normal" hair loss is....I'm far from "normal" But....I lose some every day in the shower. Do you have damaged hair from coloring, perming, etc? I color mine every 4 months, and I even use deep conditioners and leave in conditioners yet I still lose hair. I don't have thick hair. My hairdresser says I have fine hair and lots of it...I don't know what that means....semi-thick??
Answer:
I lose lots of hair too! I always thought it was normal!
Answer:
I too use to worry about all that hair I would loose. I would loose a lot when my hair was about the middle of my back before I cut it. My husband used to get after me to clean the "wookie" (chewbacca from star wars, big hairy thing) out of the drain every day. I asked my hairdresser/friend one day if I was losing too much hair. He said it is normal and it always grows back.
Answer:
When I had long hair I used to lose a lot of it at a time - my brush would need cleaned out weekly. It got really bad after I had Megan but I didn't realize I had hypothyroidism. Now I'm regulated with that and have really short hair so I don't notice it anymore.
Answer:
I have always had long hair and everytime I comb it I have a large amount around the comb to clean up. I wash it in the sink and I am a good friend of Drano as well. Also I have to check my vacuum cleaner every other month or so and cut out the hair that gets wrapped around the spinner thing! It's always been this way.
Answer:
I will say yes that you lose more the longer it gets. I have had very long and very short hair and way more when it is long.
I have long, super thick (hairdresser says I have twice as much hair as anybody she has ever cut) hair. I lose so much. I get a handful in the shower, when I comb it, when i put product in my hair, and still find pieces on my arms.
Answer:
I don't know if it's really more loss when you have long hair or if you just notice it more. I lose some, and it was especially bad after my kids were born. But it got better and now it's just the normal amount...I hope.
Answer:
I do not loose much hair, but that is good since mine is rather thin to begin with!! When my dh had long hair, it was everywhere!!! Make sure you get a strainer thing for your shower or your drain will be clogging up!!!
Answer:
I have long hair too and still find strands of it everywhere. In my car on the seat, in the shower drains (one day my son was cleaning it out and said hey look mommy its your hair, I said thank you for cleaning the drain) Looked like he pulled out a small mouse, lol.
Everyday when I brush my hair (I use a pick instead) the same amts come out. Im not worried about it because its the same as when I was a teen.
I find it wrapped around the rollers of the vacuum.
Im just a shedder I guess. lol
