Hair Today, Gone Tomorrow?! – Meet a Hair Doctor & Solve the Mystery

Hair loss always provokes panicked responses. In the past, the first signs of hair falling would trigger off frantic oiling of the scalp, counting of the number of strands of hair falling per day and the application of random home remedies.
Today, Trichology, the science of hair and scalp, has systematised the body of knowledge relating to hair and has made the diagnosis and treatment of hair disorders scientific. Questions about hair loss, however, remain the number one concern of the average man or woman and trichologists are accustomed to being asked when one should start to worry.

So, how much hair loss is normal?
There is no exact number by which you can determine if your hair loss is excessive. Excessive hair loss means more hair than you have normally been losing. The normal percentage of hair in the falling stage is 20% and anything over this is abnormal and requires treatment.
The only person qualified to tell you if you are losing too much hair is a trichologist. While most people tend to run to their hairdresser or barber with their hair problems, despite experience, a stylist is not medically qualified to get to the root of the problem. Trichology, with the benefit of research and technology, can pinpoint the cause of hair loss, and prescribe solutions.
So, If your hair loss persists, you should contact a trichologist and check your A/T ratio.
