Why is my hair falling out?

Why is my hair falling out more than usual?

• Okay yeah I know it's normal to loose hair everyday but I'm loosing more hair now than I used too! I have thick hair so I'm not really all that scared to loose some hair to make it a little thinner but I'm loosing quite a bit. I have no blad spots (thank gawd!) and my hair is still pretty thick. I tease my hair on weekdays and dye it wacky colours sometimes. How can I make it stop rapidly falling out? I also am in some stress (my ex saying he misses me, ect. all that blargh)... How can I make my hair better. I rarely straighten it though I really want to, to make teasing easier. Anybody know what's up? Vitamin defency? Stress? Teasing? All above?

• Answer:

  It's probably stress. I have that problem and I take supplements to support my adrenal glands to minimize the loss. I take a vitamin B complex, a blend for cortisol support (by Now vitamins), and then some individual herbs like rhodiola. I also take a supplement for hair and nails by Nature's Way. You could also try relaxation exercises such as progressive relaxation and it's always a good idea to eat as healthily as possible - limit sugar and grains, eat lots of veggies and fruit and healthy protein, and healthy oils. I get my vitamins at iherb.com because they have the best prices and free or low shipping. Coupon code PEY 561 will give you $5-$10 off your first order.
