    I urge everyone to take action as soon as you notice great hair fall. For me it started a couple years ago and everyone told me I was exaggerating (because I have thick thick long hair) but now I’m at a stage where even brushing my hair hurts my scalp, went to the dermatologist and I have female pattern baldness… I’m on supplements and serums.
    Don’t ask for other people’s opinion if you feel something is not right. Please get it checked as it’s a very overwhelming situation and the earlier you “catch it”, the more hair you get to keep on your head 😞

My doctors said it wasn't the virus but the blood thinner Eliquis I had to take for 6 months that made my hair fall out. Being that sick was terrifying, losing my hair messed with my emotional health. My hair was more important than I thought, I won't take it for granted again.

    Just wanted to drop a comment on how I experienced hair shedding if it can help anyone; in my case it was mental health issues. Consequently, my body deteriorated into a neglected state -- that's when I started to see/feel severe hair loss on top of other bad symptoms. At the time I had thick, long hair that was about waist-length, and every shower or brushing almost always clogged up the drain.
    I have been feeling better and decided to cut my hair short to try and revive it from scratch (started following tips and guidelines from this channel!), then I adjusted my lifestyle in general by incorporating some light exercises and just eating balanced, full meals instead of snacking. While I can't say I have completely recovered, I did notice that the hair loss has reduced by a significant amount.
    Take care of yourselves, wishing everyone the lively, bouncy hair y'all deserve ❤

      @jaderacerfn Well I stopped putting chemicals on it with the hair dye. I highly recommend Olaplex #3 for the breakage too. You don't need the whole system, that's a scam IMO. My routine is 1) wash with a clarifying shampoo 2) Olaplex #3 and let it sit for an hour 3) wash again with a strengthening shampoo 4) use a great hair mask and let it sit another hour 5) rinse and use a leave in conditioner to finish. I do this about one a month. My breakage has completely stopped! Let me know if you try it!

    • Start with a pre-wash using a natural hair rinse green tea rinse.
    • Section the hair in sections and cleanse section by section: beginning with the scalp, followed by the middle, and lastly the length.
    • Foam up your shampoo generously and scrub with your fingers the shampoo into the scalp and hair and while rinsing out of hair.
    • Massage warm Coocoonion oil and massage scalp and tie hair in a protective hairstyle.

    The aging information is so true! I had the most amazing hair most of my life up until my mid 30's. Long luscious voluminous curly hair. I only had to "scrunch and go" and it looked like I spent hours on it. Now in my mid 40's it's half as thick, flat and limp, ponytail holders slide right out and curls won't hold. I never had to use any tools and now I'm on a mission to reclaim beautiful hair so I just ordered some professional products and my first ever curling iron 😂. Your videos are great! Informative and entertaining!

    If you lack vitamin D,that can also give a lot of hair loss! If you’re in constant pain from sciatica or other back problems….that can also give hair loss.If your body is in constant pain,it can just suddenly deside to almost throw the hair off your head in chunks,that happened to me a few times,but when the pain is getting better your hair will stop falling out too😊

      Physical trauma!! I had my third baby 2 years ago and shortly after I severely pulled a back muscle picking up the car seat. I spent a whole year with back to back to back muscle spasms that would knock me on the floor for a week straight. I started seeing a chiropractor and that helped but I was still in occupational pain.
      I started back at the gym about 3 months ago and my back has gotten stronger. The discomfort I was feeling every day has gone away and I finally feel like my body is healthy again.
      Now I just need a new brush. I was told to use a wet comb in the shower and that’s what I’ve been doing. 😬

      Instead of using a wet-comb in the shower,I would recommend just using your fingers.That way you will feel it before you snap a hair so you can avoid it by carefully detangle with your fingers,when using a wet-comb you will feel it when the hair breaks(and then it is to late🤷🏻‍♀️)I always use my fingers to detangle and also to ‘brush’ my hair if needed.When I finger-brush my hair,I always use a little bit of lightweight oil(jojoba,avocado,arganoil,grapeseed)on my hands to distribute some nurturing oils through my hair at the same time.
      Just thought I’d share some tips with you since I’ve also tried wet-combing and brushing(with not very satisfying results)

Also, instead of a cap, a tighter fitting bonnet is another thing that made a noticeable difference for me, less area for your hair to move around, and the style I go to bed with, is what I wake up with, with a slouchy bonnet.

It really helps with the dryness, especially for my very dry curly hair. I try to not wash it too often, maybe twice a week. All that's mostly to help prevent the breakage that damaged my hair a lot. (Something maybe not so obvious also is that during winter I started tucking my hair in my coat of scarf to protect it from the harsh weather since i moved to a very cold country and that's about when my hair started to get damaged, idk if it's for real but i feel like it makes a difference)
      I also try to eat better and more proteins (especially eggs), and try to have good sleep, and most importantly worked on reducing my stress levels, it takes time and I'm not always there but it's work in progress!

I followed your recommendations and now my hair is back to full strength and healthier than ever. I just hung on as best I could and got a shorter haircut right when my hair was recovering. One benefit I gained is that my hair is now wavy and can hold a curl. Before, it was stick straight and wouldn't even hold a wave and I had absolutely no volume.

I also use SheaMoisture Mango & Carrot kids shampoo and conditioner as well as the raw shea, chamomile, and Aryan oil baby leave in conditioner. My hair is so fine it gets weighed down super easily, but I tend to get super oily at the roots, and this combination has softened my ends and kept my scalp nice and clean.

    I can back up the physical trauma reason. In 2015 I had brain surgery that got complicated and I had a 10-day nap. When I woke, I couldn’t walk or talk. 2 further surgeries and a boatload of hard therapies and I was back to normalish. My huge surgery bald spot was growing back wonderfully when 2 mos after the last surgery, all the other hair started falling out. It was exactly as you described. My body said yeah we don’t need that to survive so bye! It just takes a while to shrivel up and fall out. I had it cut shorter to reduce the weight, babied it and it grew back really well. It handled all that better than it handled my ex-hairdresser bleaching it to death right in 2020.

    Having gone through laser surgery for kidney stones and having a stent inside for three weeks, I’ve been shedding full hair a breakage that never ever happened to me. I’ve just had my second round of laser surgery within a month and the stent is out. As well as all of the kidney stones removed. The stress, anxiety and being petrified so much of my hair falling out showering amplified all of the above feelings. Praying that my body will now start healing and my hair will start growing back (I’m a male with hair just touching the top of my shoulders). I will be calling my doctor to get an urgent referral to see a dermatologist. Thank you so, so much, Chris, for all that you do. Your video really made a difference and made me laugh, and as a man, nearly cry seeing the segment that applied to me, as it reassured me. It meant a lot, and I’m sure not just to me.

      Second wash even less shampoo it will foam up and massage into scalp
      - only apply shampoo to scalp not mids / ends

After two years I am in remission, inflammation and itching is minimal and I’ve even seen a bit of new hair growth which wasn’t supposed to be possible.

    i don’t have hair loss but I watch it just in case that may come to me one day. But overall, the trinity guideline really is working for me very well. I knew about the two times wash already before. But I didn’t treat it as seriously. I was always using drugstore brands. Some of them are not so cheap at all. The results of my hair wash were not consistent. Sometimes it came out good, most of them came out so-so, i.e. my hair looked more flat and got dirtier much quicker. Ever since i got to know this channel, I bought the Redken shampoo and hair oil, but there is no this recommended leave in conditioner in our market. So I used other brand. The result was stunning. It only took 2-3 times before it started to show. And afterwards, I experimented with other salon shampoo in similar price range as well, but take care not to buy any shampoo that says moisture or hydration which I used to buy. I suspect that artificially added back too much oil to my hair. The result stays consistent. My hair gets better and better. It is much more shining and straight. I can finally leave my hair down because it looks good even on 3rd day. I am 50 years old and if my hair can change then probably this is good advice for everyone. Now I have many different brands of shampoos around my shower, it is kind of fun now to wash hair. I am trying them out to see what works best for me.

    My hair loss is due to stress. Major stress...major hair loss. I get bald spots. Usually my hair grows back fine, but a couple of years ago, I went through major stress and lost a lot of hair. Bald spot on the top of the back of my head, little bit in the front. My concern is that it has grown back completely different hair type. I have frizzy nappy hair growing in. I have always had curly hair, but it was nice to the touch. Now in that one spot, you can visibly see and feel the difference. Funny part is the front of head, my hair grew in straight. So I have 3 different hair types on my one head. First time this has happened. I am over 60 and do have thick hair. Even my hair stylist has no idea what to do with my hair.

    Last summer, I started Keto, had the biggest heartbreak ever when I suddenly lost my precious brother way too early in life days later, then got COVID two weeks later. About 3 months after all this, I started losing tons of hair. I tried not to stress though. C’est la vie, right? 🤷🏻‍♀️ This lasted about one month.
    I lost maybe 1/3rd of my hair (and it wasn’t thick to begin with!). I also noticed it was dryer & more frizzy than normal.
    I did start taking a hair supplement (with good ingredients-nothing synthetic), and I’m not sure if that’s what was responsible for stopping the loss or if it would have stopped on its own anyway.
    But anyway, now I have tons of 2-4 length long hair all over my head. These short hairs have a lot more body, so sometimes my hair looks a little funky. 🤪
    My hair only grows about 1/2 inch a month, so it’ll take a long while for it to grow out again. I’m keeping it just below shoulder length.
    I curl my hair with fairly small curls (1”), and this makes it look nice and full even though it’s thin. I usually just sleep in 2-3, 1” sponge rollers at night, which makes it so easy and low-maintenance.
    I hope all of you losing hair get it back soon! 💖

    When ever I (gently) squeeze my hair and run my hand from top to bottom of my hair while washing out shampoo and conditioner, SO many hairs are just coming out every time, and it's definitely not normal for me. And when I brush my hair too.
    I am SUUUPER stressed too, like badly, so I'm sure that doesn't help, but unfortunately, I am not at the point that I can really change that too much ): So I hope that doesn't cause permanent hair loss......

I was able to not loose all my hair…I only washed 1 per month, I would spray roots with refreshing washes in between. I think the no washing or brushing helped with pulling hair.

    This is a very useful video, all the advice is right on point. Most hair loss in women is actually multifactorial… meaning there is more than one cause, it requires a LOT of detective work. Very frustrating. I’ve been dealing on and off with hair loss after having my youngest child; I developed hypothyroidism and I also had iron deficiency I didn’t realize was so bad… it had started with a miscarriage then I got pregnant again right away after, my iron was already low from hemorrhaging then the new baby took up all the reserves I had. I ended up needing iron infusions and WOW. I had little baby hairs pop up all over my head 3 months after the infusions! Hair needs iron to grow; if you don’t have enough, your body will divert what you have to your organs first and your hair ends up getting kicked off the priority list. My Dr says that ferritin (iron storage) levels need to be at least 60-80 for hair to grow. It’s a simple blood test. Please see a Dr right away if you have hair loss and demand the necessary testing, just like Chris said in this video. Don’t wait another day.

From the follicle, I'm getting long hairs coming out. Anyways, thanks for helping as much as you can, you rock!

    I’m 49 and noticed I was losing full hairs. I got on the “oiling the scalp” band wagon. Went to see a derm and yeast loves oil and it will irritate the hair follicles. My hair follicles were angry; that is what she said. No more scalp oiling for me and I see my hair starting to grow back. According to my labs I’m not in menopause, either.

There’s also clobatesol topical steroid (by prescription) to help with any itching as it heals. My scalp got really itchy. Royal Oil by head and shoulders works well, too. The oil I used that started all of this was organic jojoba oil. I started to see regrowth and less hair shedding within a couple of weeks. I still use Head and Shoulders shampoo because I do not want to go through that again. My scalp was hot and itchy. I wash three times a week and my pillow cases every week.

    My daughter, who had a super thick head of curly hair, gradually lost a lot of hair in her teens. When she got her hair cut by our regular hair dresser she brought it to my attention. It had been around six months since she had seen her.
    Our family Dr tested her for low thyroid as well as autoimmune antibodies. After seeing a rheumatologist for more tests she ended up having lupus. (Sadly like her mom. What are the odds?) She is now actually off meds and in a remission state. Her hair is healthy but no longer requires those extra large ponytail ties.
    The majority of hair loss is not something like lupus, but you still need to talk to your Dr about it.

    He' is spot on. My pony tails had half the width, hair was everywhere, brush was a pad of hair every time because of stress, depressed anxiety and nutrient dificiencies D, B12 and Zinc. I fixed those, it came right back. I also switched my diet from not great food and lots of suppliments to great healthy food and some key suppliments. I've known two people who lost so much hair they wore wigs because of too low BMI. One overcame it and her hair grew back lovely.

When getting MRI for diff reason asked them to also look at nutrient markers (I think in T2) and finally big B12 and Zinc deficiencies were found. Been treating that and do mega D doses with K and full spectrum light therapy else my D just doesn't go up. Was in single digits till I did that.

    I don't know how this is possible, but my mom's hair grew substantially during perimenopause and to this day, has longer, thicker hair than I've ever had, and she has less gray than me to boot. I'm 43 and I color mine now because of the amount of gray (at least 75% of my hair has turned white). She is in her late 60s and her hair is past her rear end (she wears it up for practical reasons), and she does not do any of the right things. She uses cheap shampoo plus conditioner, no masks, no oil, no leave-in conditioner, and I'm always left here thinking why the heck couldn't I have gotten her hair? I've been working on improving my hair, and I see progress, but it's slow. Is it also possible that my hair just has a faster turnover rate, so it doesn't grow past my bra strap? It's obvious my hair grows at a normal rate due to the need for root coverage, but man, I don't get how her hair can be as nice as it is with basically no effort. I grew up doing the same sort of hair treatment as her, and my hair did not benefit, I definitely need to follow recommendations to stave off the dryness and damage. I think more than just a bit more length in total, I would most like for my hair not to be so thin at the bottom. So, my hair goes slightly past my bra strap, but it's a lot thinner there, and most of my hair stops a few inches before that.

      I have have done extreme weight loss a few times & lose lots of hair every time. Also lose hair if I have a general anethesia surgery. Does grow back after a while so far but the scalp massage & double cleanse seems to help. Prior to wash I massage with rosemary oil and let it work for 10-20 minutes. Brush well before shower to remove loose hair bUse Topix for thin areas to fill in.

    I had hair loss a few years ago. I have really really thick hair, and it was seeming to come out in handfuls. Not like my normal hair loss. I talked to my GP and they did a blood test to see if there was something going on medically and turned out I have low iron. I got put on supplements and now I am back to my normal shedding. Best advise is to go see a Doctor so they can help you.

    I guess today was the last day I tortured my scalp with that rubber brush 😅
    From the other side I had read this article of very respected dermatologist - the scalp massage is really(!) the best way to inspire your hair to grow. But it has to be a scalp massage when you are moving your scalp skin along the head (just a little bit all over the scalp) - not massaging the hair roots (when the skin as stands at the place). But moving a skin on a bone literally. It is very different technique.
