It is normal to lose a lot of hair every day. Losing more than about a hundred hairs a day is a concern and it may be necessary to take action. There are two types of hair loss:

• Gradual Hair Loss; caused by hormonal and/or hereditary factors, it affects mainly men but sometimes post- menopausal women.

• Reactional Hair Loss; affecting mainly women, it often appears following a period of stress, fatigue, a diet, food imbalance, pregnancy, a medical treatment.
