- It’s either a part of a healthy hair growth cycle and completely normal.
- Or, it’s not normal because you’re experiencing clumps of dead hair fall every time you comb or see more scalp peeking through the strands of hair. Something resembling close to a crop circle, it means that something is amiss.
Understanding the Science Behind Hair Loss
When dealing with hair loss, the first thing to do is to determine the root cause of the problem. Find out answers to questions like ‘Is there something happening inside your body that is causing such a reaction?’ or ‘Is it due to change in the weather or change of location where the water is different?’
As mentioned earlier, some hair loss is normal and normal for some maybe 150 loose strands a day, whereas the case could be extreme for a few others. You would know when you’re losing more than the normal, and that is when you need to take necessary action.
But, first, let’s understand the cycle of hair growth. Three stages comprise a healthy hair growth cycle.
- Anagen Stage
At this stage, the hair follicle is active, with one or two strands growing at a time. It can last up to 2 to 8 years.
- Catagen Stage
At this stage, the hair has stopped growing and is preparing to shed.
- Telogen Stage
At this stage, the hair falls off from the follicle holding, and if there is new growth present, the cycle continues. But, if the follicle is dormant, it takes approximately 3 months for new hair sprout.
