18 years old, losing LOTS of hair!!!?

I've been shedding a lot of hair recently...and it's an abnormal amount too! Like I run my hand through my hair and I can get at least 2-3 pieces of hair...and I lose them like crazy when I brush my hair...and even more when I was my hair!!! I don't know what is wrong....is it natural? even so much!

I have a thick amount to hair too. Please help. Thanks

Don't panic, first off. Stress is definitely a major factor is hair "loss". Think about this before anything, on an average day a person will lose anywhere from 75-150 hairs, yes, that's a day. Next, how is your diet? As long as it hasn't changed radically recently for the worse, then that isn't it.

What kind of products are you using? Many store-bought products, including shampoos and conditioners such as Suave and especially Pantene, contain ingredients in them that will attach to your hair and cause it to become brittle and break off. And yes, there are even some salon products that could do that too, such as Nexxus.

If everything seems in check, and you continue to see massive amounts of fall-out, talk to your doctor. Sometimes people will lose their hair because of a thyroid problem. It could be that, or your hair could just be going thru a stage. Each hair on your head grows for 4-7 years, then has to replace itself. Your hair texture, density, and shape also changes about every 7 years because of hormones.

I hope this was helpful to you and good luck.

You can get it thinned out at a hairdresser -they have a "thinning" scissors but maybe its your diet that is causing your hair loss or maybe stress - a variety of factors can cause this problem you are having

stop stressing...try pantene pro-v it will help your hair become stronger...and don't put your hair in a tight bun, or tight pony tail, try to put softening spray when brushing your hair.

alot of teenagers have this problem. first i suggest using pantene pro-v for hair fall control. then dont use any products such as dyes. dont use straighteners or curlers. just leave it natural. and dont wash your hair every night.
