Hair Loss At An Early Age

Dear babygirl,

i am sorry to hear that your hair is falling out at such a young age, goodness me that must be very distressing for you. Do you suffer any illnesses ? What is your diet like ? Maybe your vitamin and mineral intake isn't sufficient. Some hairloss is normal, we all lose a certain amount of hairs each day, but it shouldn't be that many that we start finding it in clumps between our fingers after shampooing. If you talk to your doctor about it I am sure he or she would have some really good suggestions for why this is happening to you.

Good luck,

When I was about 15 - 17 yrs of age, my hair used to come out, it scared me alot. But theres nothing to be afraid of, it could be because your hair is changing while your going through puberty, atleast thats what my hair dresser said. Im 19 now and my hair is strong and healthy.

For a number of reasons my daughter (15) has had a horrible & extremely stressful year & a few weeks ago her hair started falling out in just the way you described. Now her hair is very long & even getting her to have it trimmed is a battle so you can imagine her reaction, especialy when even people who didn't know her would look & say "my god" at the amounts that were coming out.

She was totally stressed out & very ill as a result>>>> correct diagnosis of what was wrong (as opposed to previous incorrect one!!) some progress toward regaing her health & her stress decreases & hey presto hair loss stopped!!!!

Suggestions that might help, check your diet is reasonable, check that you're not constipated, then try the following: take a gentle 30 minute walk every morning (even if overcast) between 6 & 7 am as at this time the suns rays affect our brain chemicals in such a way as to destress us; eat foods high in tryptophan (most nuts, yoghurt, turkey, bananas, ricotta cheese etc etc) this balances the serotonin levels in our brain & reduces stress. If stressed rub the fleshy part of the back of your hand between your thumb & first finger firmly for headaches & stress headaches & rub up & down 2-3 inches firmly on your wrist below your little & ring fingers for stress.

Good luck

Have you ever noticed any pear shaped bald patches on your scalp? If so, you may have alopecia. You need to see a dermatologist to get diagnoced. I dont want to worry you, and please do note that there are no life and death side affects to this disease. You can also check out www.Naaf.Org to get the signs of this. God bless. :p

Don't get urself completely stressed out about the issue, thats the worst thing to do, the same thing happend to me a few months ago I lost more then half of my hair before I decided to go to a dermotologist. After many tests I was informed my hair loss was due to discontinuing the birth control pill. A month or 2 later I started the pill again after I found out thats what it was from. The 10 strands of hair that would fall out when I ran my fingers through it went down to zero and then it started growing again. I have no bald spots but my hair is very thin. I have alot of regrowth now and the new hairs are about an inch long. It's a long process but i've been reasured my hair will eventually be back to almost the same thickness it was

Hey guys I was just wondering if anyone of you had hereditary hair problems in your family? I was also wondering if you guys ever heard of anything help growing back hair that's been lost. And I don't mean a hair transplant either. Have any of you guys heard of nioxin? I heard it helps with growing back hair and people swear by it.

As a hair dresser, I also loose hair. My problem is low iron. A person depending on hair color and type can loose any where from 50 to 300 hair strands a day. Length and texture also play a role in hair loss. Out with the old, and in with new! As for products to help you, tigi- and redken have great thickening shampoos. They swell up the hair shaft to create a thicker look. For people with more permanant hair loss, nioxion is great, but remember with all those shampoos like nioxion, you must continue use, once you stop the use of it, the hair re-growth stops also. Its a scalp stimulant. And always check with your doctor before using those, because they may react to medications. I hope I have helped some of you. Oh and a great, cheap relaxing way to stimulate the scalp.... Stop in a salon for a reconditioning treatment. They usually run between $5.00- $20.00. Depending on where you live.

I am 17 years old and I have the same problem, my hair comes out more often when I am in the shower or when I stroke my hand through my hair, my doctor tested me for iron deficientcy and something else(no solution)... My dad (who also is a doctor) told me that every 7 years hair sheds more than naturally and it will regrow in a few months. I hope they're right, its been 2 weeks so far.. Be sure to stick to your vitamins; I prefer centrum=thats what I take.... Vitamin e is very vital to hair growth but its said that it is not good for the blood/heart for it creates a more viscous blood so you dont want to be taking only vitamin e pills because they are in high quantity 400ui I think. :roll:

Im 37 and you should see the hair left in my shower drain. A pile!.


So if you go to ebay and type in "ojon" you will see a lineof hair products.

Ojon is a canadian hair product discovered by my cousin's cousin. It is all natural, danny simioni (founder) was feature in "o" magazine along with many others.



Ojon is a oil extracted fron this nut and boiled by the the locals of honduras. It is only found here. Any way. This product will help with hair loss becasue it strengthens the hair shaft. I highly recomend the shampoo and condoner plus the hair putty. There were a few people who were cancer patiants who used the product after treaments and said there hair as not fallen out.


If you can got directly to the ojon web site it will give you all the info you need

try it!

I remember when I was doing my final yar at school there was a girl in my year that lost all her hair due to stress and had to wear a wig! I felt so bad for her but I think her parents were putting extreme pressure on her to get good grades. I also knew a girl who had an eating disorder and lost alot of hair due to malnitrition, are you eating well?

Hi,

i wanted to say I know how hard it is to go through this. You are not the only one. I have been through the same period. I started losing hair when I was 17, and now I am 22. Mental depression, dissatisfaction with everything. You name it...


Just wanted to tell you how I have been able to stop my hair loss and start some growth. I have started using provillus it has changed my life. It is an herbal product and in one month stopped the hair loss and a little after 2 months I started to see the hair growth.
