Is 10-40 Hairs Falling A Day Normal?

[Benjamin Owen]

I am only 15 years old, I am wandering whether loosing that many a day is OK?
Most of the hairs fall when combing my hair, shampooing it in the shower, or when applying oil to it.
I just want to know if that is bad or good.

Also are miniaturised hairs pigmented or not pigmented? I have loads of really dark ones on my hairline.

You make me feel old and sh*t. Learning to spell is a bigger problem for you right now than losing* your hair.

Yes it's perfectly normal to lose hairs when combing or shampooing. A normal amount to lose in a day is 100. Dark hairs on your hairline is good. Miniaturized hairs are usually light and thin.

From what I've observed the amount of hairs that may fall out in one day seems to vary a lot depending on the individual. I remember being a small child back when I had my full head of hair, hardly any would ever fall out when I pulled or washed it. Some just lose lots of hair everyday but are not actually balding. Any concern you're having, go see your doctor.

Hair fall doesn't matter. Only thinning/recession does.
