Why is my hair shedding more than normal in the shower? 👍



I often write about hair shedding or loss and have a blog which addresses the same. One of the more common questions that I'm asked is: "how many shed hairs per day is normal. Can you really lose 100 hairs per day and still be within normal limits?" I'll answer these questions and explain the answer in the following article.

 

Your Hair Cycle: Why Some Shedding / Hair Loss Is Normal: Hair goes through three phases is its life cycle. The first is the anagen phase. Ultimately, this is the healthiest, most normal phase where you get the healthiest hair. The hair is actively growing and is deeply embedded into the follicle and is being properly nourished. If you're experiencing hair thinning, your goal is really to get your hair in the anagen phase and keep it there for as long as possible.

 

The second phase is the catagen phase. This is essentially when the hair begins to die off and gets ready to shed. I often call this the "dead hair" phase. The hair is no longer being nourished and is no longer actively growing. I was often able to tell when I was approaching a shed because I'd start to see a lot of fly away hairs that couldn't be tamed. These hairs were in catagen and were getting ready to shed.

The final phase is the telogen phase and this is when hairs fall out, although this is technically called the "resting phase." Hairs stay in this phase for about two months and then fall out. This is why folks who have telogen effluvium (excessive hair shedding) often notice a lot of hair loss about three months after the "trigger," like giving birth, starting a new medication, etc. It takes that long for the hair to "rest" and then finally fall.

 

Why 100 Hairs Per Day Isn't Always Typical: Dermatologists will tell you that at any given time, about ten percent of hairs on your head are in the telogen or falling out phase. So, that's why it's said that in a typical head of hair that has 100,000 or more hairs, 100 hairs per day would be about ten percent. But, not everyone has 100,000 hairs. And, if you've been shedding for a while, this may no longer be your reality.

 

Some doctors will tell you that 50 - 100 hairs per day is no cause for concern, but, that really doesn't tell the whole story. Every one is different and you know what is normal for you. A couple of dermatologists that I consulted about my hair loss would tell me that I was technically not that much over normal limits. However, I knew what was normal for me. And, I knew that my hair had become MUCH thinner (my pony tail went from the size of a quarter to the size of a dime) as the result of losing over 100 hairs per day for months.

 

Granted, it's normal to lose more hair than normal seasonally. No one loses the exact same number of hairs day after day. If you're shedding seasonally, then it may be normal to lose 100 hairs for a few days, but this shouldn't go on over a longer period of time with no end in sight, day after day.

 

The exception is true cases of telogen effluvium where something has changed in your body to place a greater percentage of your hair in the "resting" phase. This includes pregnancy, switching birth control pills, changing your medication, or having surgery. Some believe that stress can cause TE, but not every one concedes this.

 

The Importance Of Regrowth: No matter the cause of shedding or whether you're within normal limits are not, healthy, thick regrowth is vital. Because, at the end of the day, if you're able to regrow and replace what was lost with the same quality of hair, you'll come away with a net loss that is not so bad.

 

But, if your regrowth comes in sickly, miniaturized, or malnourished because of chronic shedding, scalp problems, or a trigger that you are missing or have not properly addressed, the over all thinning of your hair is going to be much more pronounced and noticeable.

Nail Art craze for teenagers

Nail art at home


From ramp to the salons, innovative nail arts are making a huge splash. The innovativeness is not just in the length or the shape of the nails, but also in the patterns and colors that are being used. It is very attractive and although they do cost more than an average bottle of nail polish, women are flocking to salons in large numbers to get these unique designs for their nails and to show off their personality. Hence, it comes as no surprise that now nail salons specifically meant for nail salon has been opened in a lot many places.

Nail salons are specifically meant for nail art and also for manicure and pedicure because it becomes impossible to deliver a piece of art on a broken canvas. So the hands and feet have to be properly prepared and groomed so that the nail art can be shown off to the best advantage. It is important to make the best of this as not only the true colors of the design and pattern are best displayed but it also ensures the longer stay of the enamel. As far the nail art is concerned, most are under the impression that one needs to have really long nails to have nail art done.

However, the nail salons have brought in quite a few techniques to camouflage short nails as well. Nowadays there are readymade nails with pre- imprinted patterns that can be just stuck on the nails with the help of glue. This can stay put for quite a long time. Again, the real nail art does require quite a degree of expertise and the nail salons should have the experts to do them. Various kinds of nail polishes are used to create designs and delicate brushes are used to administer them. Then there are crystals and sparklers used for the added jazz. Some prefer the same design in all nails while others want more unique ones. Apart from nail art, a water nail art can also give a lot of useful tips regarding how to make the nail paints stay longer and help the nails from chipping. Sometimes the problem lies with us and a change in our lifestyle is important to eliminate them. But the experts help to identify them better.



The things to check e going to a nail salon are that whether it has a license. License is most important if you are trying a new place with great rates. If the rates are low then it does not mean that the services will  be compromised. In that case, one would end up with even greater loss of money. But by and large, a session will end looking you staring at your hands and legs.

How to Lose Junk and Win a Life



I’m one of those proud garage owners who like to press the garage-opener button and show off the organized display of my garage items to anyone who happens to be passing by.

I do admit, I’ve taken great pleasure from people who catch the glimpse inside and, if I’m with someone, I usually hear, “Wish my garage looked like this.” My reply back is simply, “It can.” I then refrain from saying, “Just organize it.”

My garage happens to be the storage place for most of my junk. At least what I consider junk, which is all a matter of view-point really. I actually call my garage a resting place for stuff before final burial.

By final burial, I mean the final place for stuff, whether it resides in someone else’s home or the garbage dump. It’s rare that it continues to reside in my garage.

My trick in making my junk not look like junk to other people however is how it is organized. When I no longer want something in the house, or no longer feel I have a use for it, I put it in a large wicker basket in the garage designated to take to a charity retail store. If I can’t find a place for it in my house but still want it, I find a place for it in my garage, and not just a dumping place either.
See, even my garage has a place for everything and everything in its place. My shelves are lined with storage containers that either stack or pull out drawers. The floor along one wall is lined with stacking container bins and another wall with a storage cabinet and wall shelves over a work table.
The thing is, even these organized places can get out of hand when we keep too much stuff. So, the real trick is in deciding which junk we don’t really need anymore and getting it out of the garage (or wherever we’ve put the junk) and out of our life.

I recently bought a new juicer and put the old one in the garage in a box. It still worked and I thought I might need it someday in case something happened to the newer one. After keeping it in my garage for a couple months, I realized that someone else would benefit from it more than me and it was just taking up space, so I put it in my Charity Basket.

That’s what I mean by resting place before final burial. I couldn’t get rid of it at first, but then when I examined it later, the value of the item had changed and I was able to discard it and get it out of my life for good.

My sister, daughter, and friends love to come over and shop-for-free in my garage, too. I typically invite some people over every once in awhile to browse through the Charity Basket before I put it in my car and haul it away. Many of them now ask me, “Get rid of anything lately?”
That question has actually worked to my benefit. It prompts me to take time to look around again and see what I don’t need around the house. Streamlining my belongings has become a regular event in my life as a result.

I once wrote about preparing for a disaster, “Plan for best, prepare for worst,” and took a look at what we have and decide its value to us and what we would want to take with us if we had to depart from our home suddenly. I have since thought about doing a drill on that.

The drill would be: give yourself thirty minutes to look around and decide what you would need to take with you if you had to flee quickly and never come back. It’s certainly a good way to see what you hold of value to you. And it’s also a good opportunity to get in the mindset of letting go of stuff.
I did this, but it wasn’t a drill. It was for real. I had to evacuate because of a looming fire heading my way. And it was the motivation I needed to crack down on my stuff.

I didn’t need a dozen purses, or nail polishes, or lipsticks. I typically only used one of two of these items most of the time. I also didn’t need so many shoes or clothing I haven’t worn in ages. And, what was I doing with three sets of dishware anyway? I only used one set!

I did however gather up all my photo albums and photo CDs. Memories like those are irreplaceable. And, that’s the bottom line: what is replaceable and what isn’t?

So, what would you load up in your car if you had to leave and start over? And ladies, please don’t say it includes a bag of a dozen nail polishes.

Journey to the Center of Your Life



Sometimes things that don’t seem possible become the reality that it is possible, and has indeed cropped up into our life. Good or bad, things happen that we may not expect. And, I’m not talking about stumbling upon some live, ancient dinosaurs either, such as that in Jules Verne’s novel.
I’m talking about falling into a lifestyle you didn’t plan for, and that lifestyle may be a good one or a not-so-good one for you.

Did you ever think that you’d be in a miserable relationship? Suffer through a natural disaster? Lose a good paying job? Or, on the other side of the coin, did you ever think you’d find your soul mate and live happily ever after? Get to buy that dream home you always wanted? Find the best job ever or start your own business?

Life is a series of changes. And change can be viewed as opening doors to new opportunities.
I’ve been reading about many retailers for example who, in the face of a challenging economy, have reinvented themselves, found new opportunities that didn’t seem to exist before, and cut back to basics with strategies that improved their bottom line. And, they’re having success.
Other people are doing it too. When one journey ends, they planned and initiated a new journey. And a new adventure began.

Then, it’s what a person does that leads them along their new path. And, contrarily, it’s what a person doesn’t do that leads them nowhere.
We hear about it all the time, especially in these struggling times. A job lost creates a new opportunity for something else they didn’t attempt to do before. Financial difficulties can lead to a lifestyle that doesn’t have so much stress. A bad relationship opens up the door for finding a good, much better relationship.

I’ve met a lot of people throughout my life who say, “I can write a book about my life,” as they look at how much and how many changes they’ve gone through, and survived. I could probably write one myself, but that will have to wait until I’m bored and have nothing else to write about.
These days, I never know what to write on my own bio because of the various ways I’ve reinvented myself through life changes. I’m a lifestylist, a professional organizer, an interior decorator, a public speaker, an entrepreneur, a writer, a marketing and PR expert, a web designer, an animal rescue activist, a multi-media producer, and the list goes on. I figure I must take on new endeavors every year or so and, at this rate, by next year I hope to be adding something like world adventurer, if there is such a profession.
I’ve had many doors close in the past, too. But, when those closed, a new door opened up which didn’t seem to be there before, strangely enough. And it always seemed to open to something better, and often bigger.

One time in my life I was between jobs and at the end of a 6-year relationship. While my Temp Agency got to work trying to find work for me, I began to embark on my own search. I listed my skill-set and transformed those skills into services. The next thing I knew, I was pounding the pavement with brochures at hand offering services such as organizing an office and a filing system, and other similar business services. Before I knew it, I was in business and my life as a professional organizer began.

I firmly believe these new openings in my life were a result of where I put my attention. And I always chose to put my focus on something better, something positive.

This, I’m sure, holds true for anyone who took change and turned it into a new opportunity. They had to have put their attention on a solution, a new strategy or the like rather than the problem. How else could they have come into the great events and wonderful journeys that took place in their life?
With change, we need to re-organize (yes, I’m sure you were waiting to see how this would tie into the subject I always talk about!). This also applies to making, or causing change. We don’t always have to wait for change to happen to us; we can actually cause change all by ourselves.

If you’re unhappy with something, say for instance a cluttered room, than decide to make a change and re-organize accordingly. Anything you’re unhappy with and want to change just requires that you regroup, reinvent, and re-organize.


After all, a journey to the unknown can be fun and rewarding and prosperous and exciting. Even Jules Verne’s story had a good ending.
