I’m losing hair?

There are a stack of reasons why you could be losing hair – for most of us, shedding around 100 hairs a day is totally normal. If your hair loss increases suddenly, however, or you begin to see your scalp, it’s worth investigating. Hormone changes, diabetes, thyroid dysfunction, illness and some medications are all possible causes. And if you’ve recently had a baby, you can certainly expect some hair loss. “Your thicker hair from pregnancy is shed all at once, around five to six months after giving birth,” explains Tim.
