Why do we experience Hair Loss?

Writer: Astute TeamAstute Team

Generally, people shed from 50 to 100 single hairs per day! Hair shedding is part of a natural balance where some hairs fall out while others grow to take it’s place.

When the balance is distrupted, hair loss happens.


Hair goes through three cycles:

  • The anagen phase (growing phase) can last from two years to eight years.

  • This phase generally refers to about 85% to 90% of the hair on your head.

  • The catagen phase (transition phase) is the time that hair follicles shrink and takes about two to three weeks.

  • The telogen phase (resting phase) takes about two to four months. At the end of this phase, the hair falls out.
