How Much Hair Loss Is Normal?

Some of you may not realize this, but people who are healthy still shed a considerable quantity of hair over the span of a few months. Any person who wishes to find out how much hair loss is normal will certainly not get a precise answer due to the fact that no human's hair cycle is exactly similar as everyone else's but shedding between fifty to one-hundred hairs each day is regarded as normal. But if you excessively brush your hair or enthusiastically massage your scalp too much while taking a bath, a great deal of hair will fall out.
