Did you know that the average lifespan of a single hair is 4.5 years; the hair then falls out and is replaced within 6 months by a new hair. Typically a woman will lose roughly around 50 to 100 hairs a day. If you are the average woman and have roughly 100,000 hairs on your head, 50 hairs aren’t even noticeable. But, what if you are a woman who no longer has 100,000 hairs on her head or your hair is thinning, brittle or breaks easily? Then is losing 50 to 100 hairs still considered normal? The answer depends on the cause of your hair loss. In an age where there are few taboo subjects that haven’t been talked about on national television shows, one still remains –female hair loss. Part of the reason for the silence may be that balding and thinning hair is often associated with men, and hair loss and treatments for women are not talked about as freely. As a result, women don’t often what is normal and what isn’t.
