Hair fall, as against what the common notion is, isn\u2019t a chronic disease. An average of 8-50 hair fall daily and get regrown accordingly. This is because like all the other body parts, our hair also follow a growth cycle.<\/p>\n
The normal cycle of hair growth lasts for 2 to 6 years. Each hair grows approximately 1 centimetre per month during the growth phase. About 90 percent of the hair on our scalp are growing at any one time and about 10 percent of the hair on our scalp, at that particular time are in resting phase.<\/p>\n
Around the 5th year from their first appearance, the hairs fall out and get replaced within 6 months. The average scalp contains about 1,00,000 hairs. As mentioned earlier, on an average, a person loses some 8-50 hairs a day; however, some people may experience excessive (more than normal) hair loss.<\/p>\n
