Are you noticing more hair in your shower drain or hairbrush this summer and wondering if it is time to panic? In honor of National Hair Loss Awareness Month, this Five Minute Friday episode of Beauty Bytes breaks down everything you need to know about your hair's natural shedding cycle. I explain exactly how to tell the difference between normal seasonal shedding, damage-induced hair breakage from chlorine and tight ponytails, and true progressive hair loss. We discuss why getting a comprehensive blood panel is the absolute first step you must take, including the specific hormone and ferritin levels your body requires to actually grow hair. Finally, I share my top regenerative and medical treatments for rescuing your follicles—from PRP microneedling and KeraFactor serums to oral minoxidil and dual-wavelength red light therapy.
