Hair fall is normal when in a moderate amount, however when excessive hair loss or thinning of the scalp begins to happen, it’s because this cycle has been disrupted, and it’s worrisome. As a result, receding hairlines, regular thinning, bald patches and complete baldness can occur.

Here are 10 Hair Loss Facts That Might Astonish You:

1. Over 800,000 People Seek Hair Restoration Every Year

According to recent studies, about 800,000 people; men and women sought either surgical or non-surgical help for hair loss every year on an average. These people go for hair transplants that also include regions of the body other than the scalp, including procedures focusing on restoring eyelashes, eyebrows, facial hair, and chest hair.

Hair Too Has Lifespan

2. Hair Too Has Lifespan

Hair has a lifespan of about two and six years. A new one starts growing to replace it, whenever you shed a hair.


3. It’s Better to Wash Hair with Lukewarm Water

You must have heard many times that you should not use lukewarm water to wash your hair, however, the fact is that using lukewarm water to wash your hair will make them stronger. Avoid using very hot water as it can cause the head to sweat and cause trauma to the hair, in a similar way that the sun and hot electrical products can.

Targets the Older People

4. It Just Targets the Older People

People generally believe that hair loss and baldness is something that occurs only in older people. However, it’s a fact that even as male pattern baldness most often affects older men, its commencement can actually begin much earlier and younger men equally get affected.


5. Pulling out Hair on Purpose

Anxiety and stress can cause your hair to fall out, but there are some cases, where people literally start pulling out their hair. This is called trichotillomania, which is a psychiatric disorder. It tends to surface in individuals who suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder, which creates an urge to pull hair to relieve tension.

Human hair grows about 6 inches per year on average, but some lucky people can go from a pixie cut to shoulder-length tresses in apparently no time at all. Researches and studies show that ethnicity also has an influence on the rate or hair growth.


7. Younger People More Likely to Go for Surgery

It is another astonishing fact that it’s actually people in the 30-year-old to 49-year-old range who are going for hair restoration procedures most often.

Hair Restoration Treatment Is Not Just for Your Head

8. Hair Restoration Treatment Is Not Just for Your Head

The huge majority of hair transplant procedures are related to baldness or thinning of the scalp, but that’s not the only problem area people are dealing with. People also go for surgeries in connection with eyebrow, eyelash loss and chest hair restoration etc.


9. High-Energy Sports Can Cause Hair Loss

Sports can also be one of the reasons of hair loss as during high-intensity exercise or sport, muscles consume a huge amount of energy, draining the rest of the body of energy, including the hair which causes hair to suffer and may result in hair loss.

I am honestly thankful to Advanced Hair Studios. I suffer from a hair-pulling disorder. There is this constant urge to pull off your hair follicles. It is painless when you pull but extremely painful when you see a missing patch on your scalp. But, I feel blessed with AHS hair fall treatment. I can see baby hair growing. It’s been two weeks. All I can see is low hair fall.

I have done my hair transplant surgery in AHS Delhi Branch on 2019 by travelling to Delhi from Dhaka, Bangladesh. The front and the back portion of my head were bald and through the hair transplant surgery, they have managed to cover the front portion of my head and the former appearance of my face returned back. The way they collected hairs from the donor portion did not affect my donor area at all. I am quite happy with my result. I have been consulting with them for a second seating so that they can cover the back portion of my head as well so that the hair density on top will increase and the bald portion of my head will reduce to a minimum level.
