A member asked:
How much hair lost per day is considered hairloss?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
50-150 hairs per day: Normal hair loss is about 50-150 per day but can be accentuated by vigorous shampooing or by chemical or physical treatments that make the the hair more brittle - technically this would lead to breakage not true hair loss.
