I'm only 16, but I'm losing my hair like crazy! Why? :(?

I'm a 16 year old female and lately I've been losing A LOT more hair then usual. Like if I were to guess maybe 50-60 in the shower alone and 30-40 just brushing my hair. My hair seems to be getting thinner and I almost always find strands of my hair on my clothes.



Recently I've lost about 7 pounds of weight(over 4 months) but I'm still at a healthy 97 pounds (I'm 4'; 10). I haven't really changed my eating habits and if anything I may be eating healthier than before. Why is my hair falling out and what can I do?I'm only 16, but I'm losing my hair like crazy! Why? :(?
I do not think, that there is anything wrong with you at all, especially, if you do eat regular, healthy meals.



I am 35 years old, and this has happened to me THREE times in my life. The first time was when I was about 24 yrs., second when I turned 29 years, and again with 34 yrs. Each time it was over a period of approximately 3 month, and I can understand, that you are freaking out. I did every time, and it is unbelievable, that I did not turn bald. I didn't.



Just make sure you take a daily multi vitamin and you should be fine. It will eventually stop.I'm only 16, but I'm losing my hair like crazy! Why? :(?
I'm 5 feet tall and this has happened to me before. I started doing gymastics and being really busy with school 8th grade through 10th grade and i weight 96 pounds. I ate healthy and everything and took care of myself but I lost a little hair too whenever I brushed. It was just shedding but I saw a doctor anyways and they said not to worry. Recently, (i'm a college junior now), my hair has grown alot thicker. (i've gained some weight too).



so see a doctor if you're worried but don't be so stressed, it's okay. just eat healthy and don't overwork yourself.
Believe it or not it is normal to lose between 50-100 strands of hair a day. You will notice it more the longer you hair is and the thicker it is. Especially if you wear your hair up all day. If you are losing patches of hair and feel bald spots on your scalp, see a dermatologist as this maybe a medical condition.

P.S. I don't know if 97 pounds is too skinny for 4'10';, but being underweight can certainly contribute to thinning hair and hair loss.
Eat more more protein like peanut butter a lot of fish and some eggs also if you would like you can take some hair loss medication to make your hair get longer You definetely need protein
you may be straightening it to much, blowdrying it to hot, or using arsh shampoo
First of all you are SKINNY!!!!!!! Second hair loss can be from, stress so you should get that checked out. :)
do you dye your hair?

that leads to hair loss sometimes

make a doctors appt ASAP
Stress can effect some people's hair. It could be that.
This happened to me a few years ago, when I was around 13 or 14. I used to have extremely thick hair and slowly but surely it started to dwindle down, and I even had bald spots!



DON'T WORRY!!! I asked my doctor at the time it was happening and he said it was very common for young people to experience hair loss, especially since they are still in the process of growing. I'm 16 now and my hair is kind of thin but other than that it is absolutely normal. Your body is just going through some minor transitions. Also, don't think you have to buy special products and waste tons of money (but if you want to you can) on things that won't end up working. Of course you can purchase shampoo that strengthens hair but no other products are really necessary. I'm not sure it has anything to do with your diet, but if you HAVE changed your eating habits recently you should just make sure you are getting enough proteins.



You will grow out of it, and hair will grow back! : )

Hope this helps!
