‘It is common to lose 50 to 100 hairs in a day’
According to the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD), it is normal for a person to lose 50 to 100 hairs in a day. If someone has about 100,000 (1 lakh) hairs on his head, then consider that it is not something to pay much attention to. It is like a cycle, some hair goes away and new hair grows in their place.
Hair does not fall due to shampoo or combing.
Our hair does not fall due to shampooing or combing. Actually these have already separated from the scalp i.e. their root. Shampoo and comb make their work easier. The truth is that keeping hair clean makes it stronger. This reduces the risk of any kind of infection in their roots.
The real reason for hair fall is lack of nutrients. If there is a deficiency of green vegetables, fruits, and essential vitamins (D, B-12 and E), minerals (iron and calcium) in our diet, then it directly affects the hair. Apart from this, if the hair is not getting the right amount of protein then it means that the hair is not getting nutrition. This can also cause hair fall.
