Don’t Let Hair Loss Rule Your Life

Facts, Fiction, And Fixes For Hair Loss

Outside of styling it, our hair is something we usually take for granted. The only time you may pause in the middle of a brush or comb stroke is the first time you unexpectedly see bare scalp. Hair loss that exceeds replacement rate can occur at any age, though usually, it’s toward the end of the second decade of life. However, no matter at what age it occurs, if you see a full head of hair as a significant part of your personal image, that first patch of bald scalp can be quite a shocker. Fortunately, we live in a time of medical breakthroughs and changing social norms. This booklet explores human hair, why some of us lose it, and what can be done to possibly stop or even reverse hair loss.
