“I’ve always had fine hair that sheds. I literally have a head of hair on my hairbrush every time I brush it.”
“Is anyone else finding hair everywhere? I’m heat styling and washing my hair less, but somehow, my hair is falling out more than normal.”
These are just a few of the hair loss concerns I’ve heard anecdotally from friends, family and women in Mamamia’s You Beauty Facebook group in recent months.
