The Tamsen Show · The Hair Loss Doctor: What Works (And What’s a Waste) · 25 Feb 2026 podcast

And they're like, I just want to be me.

And if it means that I have to have a cropped haircut, I have to do whatever, I just want to be healthy.

I want to feel comfortable in my skin.

And that's when they show up to the table to have the conversation.

So that statistic is specifically for hair loss, which is a loss of density, a loss in the density and caliber of the follicles.

And the most common type of hair loss is female pattern hair loss, which is something that we inherit.

So we inherit that sensitivity, that genetic predisposition.

And then those hormonal changes that are inevitable really exacerbate that.

And that's where we start to see it a lot more in that perimenopausal, menopausal period.

So in my office, I call hair loss that loss of density, that loss of the caliber and thickness of your hair, and I call hair breakage the difficulty to have retention.

And so breakage is usually an outside job.

It is heat, chemicals, dyes, improper products, not having the appropriate moisture protein balance so that your hair is just not as resilient and resistant to all those external factors.

So that's an outside job.

And then the inside job, that's gonna be the female pattern hair loss.

There are many types of hair loss, telogen effluvium that a lot of women get after pregnancy, those hormonal shifts.

There are a number of scarring hair loss conditions that are a consequence of inflammation, kind of like autoimmune diseases.

The body turns on the hairs, turns on the scalp.

And so those are the inside jobs.

So that's what I call hair loss, just to make that categorize it.

And then there's hair breakage.
