But before you spend money on treatments to grow your hair back or on hair transplants, it can be helpful to know how to measure hair loss to determine whether you’re really suffering unnatural hair loss.

     Learn all you can about hair growth and hair loss. Some people naturally have less hair than others, so understanding your genetic hair growth will help you determine if you need to measure hair loss.

     It’s important to know that male and female hair loss follow different patterns and have different causes, though stress, medications, and chronic illnesses such as lupus can all be causes. Though hair loss in men is usually determined by genetics, in women it’s usually caused by hormonal imbalances, for example after pregnancy, during menopause, or as a result of low thyroid hormones. Sometimes doctors advice supplemental therapy when the body is not expected to regain hormonal balance by itself.

     Once hair follicles have stopped developing at the end of puberty, the natural development of a hair follows three cycles: a growing phase that can last up to 5 years, a transitional phase, and a resting phase after which it naturally falls out. That’s why even people with healthy hair growth lose between 50 and 100 hairs each day.
     The color of your hair determines how much hair you have. People with blonde hair usually have about 140,000 hairs on their scalps, while brunettes have an average of 105,500 hairs and redheads have about 90,000 hairs.

     Count the number of hairs you lose each day, or if that’s too difficult or time consuming, estimate the number as accurately as you can. Hairs you lose while washing and brushing your hair, as well as those that fall onto your clothes during the day and your pillow at night all count. If the amount is near or over 100, you’re experiencing excess hair loss.  Check more details(http://www.ishowigs.com/celebrity-wigs

     3 Consult with your physician how to treat your hair loss. You physician can help you determine if lifestyle changes such as a healthier diet or less stress will help, or whether hormone treatment or specialized hair loss treatment is necessary.
     4 Use the Ludwig Scale if you’re a woman or the Norwood Scale if you’re a man to measure hair loss. Both scales visually classify hair loss into a number of stages based on where hair loss occurs and how far from the natural hairline the hair has receded.
     In women, a widening at the center part of your hair is stage 1. When the widening grows and you lose hair at the sides and the front of your scalp, amounting to about 50% hair loss, you’re in stage 2. Even further hair loss is stage 3, and when you’ve lost almost all of your hair you’re in stage 4.
     In men, stages progress from minimal hair loss at the front of the scalp in stage 1, to noticeable hair loss on the crown and at the forehead and temples in stages 2 and 3, to serious hair loss and almost complete baldness in steps 4, 5, 6, and 7.  Click here to buy one (http://www.ishowigs.com/full-lace-wigs/filter_hairtype_synthetic-hair
