You are saying 3 months before it starts falling out.. I thought mine was from trauma/surgery because it started falling out within a week of breaking both ankles and having surgery... 3 months before that? nothing I can think of. I have had numerous surgeries in my life and this has never happened.. Also its been 3 years and it's not recovered so I guess it's not that.. maybe menopause? But I had been dealing with those symptom for 10 years and it's never affected my hair before.. ANYWAY.... my hair has become very thin and has not recovered. I am now taking mega vitamins for two weeks and am hoping in the long run it will come back.
Thank you for this video, as a man. I really was stressed about my hair coming out. This week was 3 months to the day i had covid . I was so sick and stressed out , plus with stresses of money, work. Plus is super dry in Colorado right now. I noticed more hair then usual coming out. Which is even more stressful. I have to learn to calm down. Plus not be tough with my hair. With towels, combs, blow dryer. Im taking all your advice plus seeing a dermatologist this week. I have really nice thick hair so it really bothers me to see it in my hands while i shower. I used bed head number 2 for the longest. And had great results as far as great hair.
I live in Colorado as well and I notice that every few years I am sort of molting, it is upsetting. It is so dry here and i feel like I can't condition my hair enough and I only shampoo once a week. Bu this molting only lasts a few months in the dry winter and then it stops in the spring. I eat lots of oily fish like sardines and tuna in olive oil and I swear it helps with regrowing my hair and it gets thick again. :)
Hi Tabitha! 😊Hope you are fine. Iam facing hair shedding since mid August this year. It’s almost been 2 months. I feel I have lost around 2/3rd of my hair already. Can you tell me How Long should I expect for the hair shedding to stop and Does it stop suddenly or gradually ? I went to a dermatologist too. He gave me B12, Iron tablets and Qilib spray to apply on the scalp for 3 months. Look forward to hearing from you 😊
Hi! I am so sorry you are going through this. It is scary having been through this 2 times myself. It will last about 3-6 months. You will slowly see that there is less hair coming out. Start using a good hair growth shampoo too so it will keep the scalp & hair follicle healthy.😉
Riya Gundial Hi !😊yes it has stopped .. my hair is growing back now ... so happy see it grow back.. although it will take time for the length to come back ... but at least it has started to grow... Thankyou for checking 😊
@@nehavasal my hair shedding slows down but does not stop...its has been 5 months...m vry tensed....does it stop suddenly or slow down before stop??? How many months after ur hair fall stop?
If you have Larger hairs & Smaller hairs next to it. It might be Androgenetic Alopecia, but there could be other factors. Do you have hereditary hair loss in your family? Are you on medications? TE is when you have handfuls of hair falling out all at once.
TabithaFHair, i have a question about it. I am 15 years old male. One and a half month ago i started having excessive hair loss and it slowed down after 4 weeks after i started using anti dandruff shampoo, because i had dandruff at the same time. Now my hair are very very thin. I want to ask if this hair loss is due to MPB or Telogen effluvium. I have noticed that not all of my hairs have the same width(diameter), when they shed. Some of them ar thicker and the others are thinner. I have lost hair from almost every part of my head but most of them were lost from the top of my scalp( the left side is a little bit worse) and from a spot that is located above my ears( in the two sides of my head). I have visited a dermatologist but he didnt tell me if its mpb or te. I am afraid that it might be androgenetic alopecia but the only bald member of my family is my 80 year old grandfather. My father 50 years old, has only widow peaks and his father 82 years old, has only widow peaks too but his hair is a little bit thinner. In addition i am not mature enough for my age, namely i dont have facial hair and i have very little body hair. Theoritically speaking, it cant be mpb because i dont have high DHT levels( dht causes the growth of body and facial hair). Although the only bald member of my family is my 80 year old grandfather, and even though i am only 15 and i dont have facial or body hair, is there any possibility that my hair loss is due to mpb and not because of TE? Edit: Also five months ago i had high anxiety levels and a moderate depression( but i didnt take any medication).
@@nickgior3849 Hi Nick. It sounds like you have TE. MPB is just like it is. It starts in a pattern and continues. It is very common for TE to look like you might have lost more hair on one side of the head or the other. Your stress levels are probably what caused it. What type of dandruff do you think you have? Is it white, flaky, dry? Or is it oily and clumpy at the scalp? This could cause you to have those smaller hairs. Sebum can build up and harden in the follicles and make the hairs smaller because they are blocked.
@@tabithafhair my dandruff is actually seborrheic dermatitis. My scalp is very dry ( i can understand it when i scratch it) but for some reason my hair becomes oily if i dont wash them everyday. I have started taking biotin supplements to help my hair regrow because i have lost the 50% of it.
@@nickgior3849 ok. With seborrhea you need to alternate between a shampoo with selenium sulfide & a shampoo with salicylic acid. This will calm it down. Dairy can trigger this or a food allergy. I would eliminate dairy for a month and see if this helps. I also have clients who really benefit from taking a skin probiotic. It has taken it away completely in some clients. Keep taking your Biotin & get your iron & vitamin D checked.
I have TE after stopping on birth control pills, I got back on them right away but I've been shedding for 5 months now and my scalp hurts so bad! It feels like needels are poking my skin. (High testosterone)
I am sorry you are going through this. Try to help the inflammation you are having with food. This will help with the scalp pain. Look up anti-inflammatory diet and try for 4 weeks. Let me know if it helps you. It has worked for my clients. ❤️
Hi! Hope u can answer. I have been struggling with TE for 11 months now.. my hair was so long and thick and now I have only one third of it left😣 I am pretty sure it was caused by a hormone IUD because the shedding started 2,5 months after taking it. I waited 8 months if the situation calmed down but it didint so I took the IUD out 1,5 months ago. My hair is still shedding. My shedding was really bad for the first 6 months but after that it has slowed down, just a little bit. I have lots of baby hairs all over my head right now but my hair is still falling out, and the most scary thing is seeing those babyhairs fall 😣😣 does the situation get better after removing the cause (IUD) and how long does the hair take to react to hormone changes? I really cant handle with this shedding anymore😵💫
This is so hard. This happened to me and it took about a year to settle down. When you are on birth control, it can mess with your gut and how you absorb your nutrition. I have a full e-book on how I turned mine around and it has helped so many people with TE. You will want the Telogen effluvium (TE) ebook. www.tabithafhair.com/shop
Hi, I haven’t been diagnosed yet but Im pretty sure I have telogen effluvium and my doctor didn’t give me anything insightful because my iron and thyroid levels are good. It’s the stress from college and I noticed that I started losing a lot of hair after I started sleeping at irregular times ( 3am, 2am, 2:30am, etc). It’s been 2 years now and I have less than half of the hair that I used to have. I’m still very young and I have tried taking a lot of hair vitamins and the shampoos I’ve been using are made with biotin and collagen. Im not sure its working because recently I have been noticing sparse and almost bald areas on the top part of my scalp. My hairline is already really bad and it’s really wide. I’m losing a lot of confidence in myself and the way I look due to my hair :( I was wondering what recommendations you have to help with the hair regrowth process and how to stop hair from falling out. Also what brand shampoo do you recommend and what essential oils do you recommend and how do you use it?
Hi Kristi. It is super stressful isnt it? I would have your vitamin D checked as well. Did you add or change birth control during this time? It sounds hormone related if it is all over. (If you would rather email me for the answers) Tabithafhair@gmail.com Food is going to be helpful as well as your vitamins, and probiotics as well. I have a blog post on what to look for in a probiotic. www.tabithafhair.com/post/your-gut-health-affects-your-hair How is your scalp? Does it itch or are you oily? Do you have this in your family? Have you had food allergy testing?
I just got diagnosed with TE just recently and have lost about half my hair from it. Do you sell your shampoos and topical vitamins online or where I could purchase them???
Hi Shannon, Sorry you are going through this. Right now I just sell it at my salon. Do you have a Trichologist in your area? If you dont, let me know and I could send you some. Get on a hair,skin & nail vitamin right away and I have seen amazing things with collagen too. Get 'within us Tru Marine Collagen.'
TabithaFHair no. Unfortunately we live in a very small rural community. My Dermatologist that did my scalp Biopsy was 3 hours away and she called me to tell me my DX was TE. I have take Biotin for many years and take a really good liquid collagen by modere along with regular supplements. I eat well including good Protein. Yet I have still losing hair. She did put me on a Steroid foam for a few weeks to rub in my head at night. But I’m not big on steroid medication. So I was hoping you might could help me with more cleaner topical agents to help with regrow the. I’m desperate at this point... Thanks...
Hi is it good to massage your scalp when you have TE, I can't find the right answer for it online, some say yes it's good for the follicles and some say don't, can you put me in the right direction with this. Thank you for posting this video, I've lost 70% of my hair now and still falling out after 10 months 😔
Gentle circular massage is fine but sometimes just making sure you have the shampoo all over and leaving it on for 2-5 minutes will make sure you scalp is getting clean is fine. I know this is a tough one when you are losing hair.😞
Thanks for this very informative video. I ve had 3 bouts of telogen effluvium. The first one was in may to july last year. Thought it was just stress-related used to have a fine thick hair. 2 nd bout happened last dec when i had my hair dyed. Hair loss was from 50-200 a day...i dyed my hair again march 2019 while i still have an ongoing TE. Hair loss has gone from bad to worst shedding off 300 hairs in one day! Noticed my hair was dry and coarse too. Tried nioxin for 3 mos but to no avail... any reco please... my hair is super thin that i have to wear wig or extension. Pls help, tabitha. All medical and lab work ups returned nirmal....Thanks. Btw, just wearing an extension in my profile picture. God bless and more power
Hi Grace, it is so frustrating when you are in it, right? Do you feel like it was caused by your color treatments? I know that having your ferretin (iron) levels and vitamin D checked would be good. Alot of dr.'s will tell you that your ferretin is normal (12 -150) but it really needs to be around 70 for hair growth. Please ask your dr. For the exact number on this. Please start taking a hair, skin and nail vitamin with Collagen every day. This will make a huge impact on the amount of hairs you are losing a day. I would love to send you a bottle of my shampoo that has transformed my hair. Email me at tabithafhair@gmail.com And if you have any more questions.
TabithaFHair really appreciate your prompt and extensive response. I was told that i developed scalp contact dermatitis due to repetitive dyeing of hair... Will ask my dr. About the exact range of my vit d and ferritin level. Will send you an email in a while .. More power. 😘
Just an oral corticosteroids and anti-histamine. Impression was allergic contac dermititis due to chemical dye i developed mild burning sensation on my scalp. No lesion or whatsoever. Been on biotin 10000 and zinc pico since december..
You're the first person I've read who's had the same situation as me! My t.e started from repeated hair dying and got contact dermatitis from it. Have you found any advice on it? It's been 9 months for me now and still no improvement x
Hi Jenn, You want a shampoo that promotes scalp health and hair growth. The ones I have seen work are XTC, Zenegen & Bosley. Make sure you get them from the company themselves because there is alot of diversion with these products. Let me know what works for you😉
I experienced this, after going through series of traumatic events at 26 years old. Hair loss didn't run in my family as a woman. However, evey doctor I, seen blow me, off. Not one asked any questions on what, I had gone through . Lost eyebrows, eye lashes, and the hair on my arms and legs thinned out. I finally, found an dermatologist that validate it. I probably will never have that, thick lush hair I, once had. Moreover, I survived those events.
Thank you for sharing your story. There are more & more trained Trichologists everyday. Hopefully one day we can have them at every clinic or town to help people like you who need answers.
I'm also suffering from T. E after 2mnhs of my covid recovery. This stage is very very stressful bt at the same time stress triggers more and more hairfall. Dr has told me to wait for 3months for regrowth. Bt waiting in such a situation is very much hard!
This is so hard. I'm sorry. 😔 I have a TE e-book that helps so many people. If you go to my website and go to my store. Let me know how it helps you so I can help others.❤️
Hi! I went through tellogen effluvium earlier this year due to low ferritin and stress and lost about 60% of my hair 😭 it was absolutely traumatic and although its not shedding any more im left with very thin hair! My hair used to be extremely thick and may i add im only 18. Now that it has stopped shedding for about 4 months, i am seeing SOME regrowth but not merely as much as what I lost. How long do you think it would take to have full recovery of my old thick hair? I improved my diet and i apply hair masks! What do you think??
Hi! I am so sorry you went through this. So glad that it has stopped. Hair grows about 1/2 inch a month so it is a slow go😑 I would get on a good hair,skin & nail vitamin to keep it growing from the inside & keep eating good. There are natural topical liquid vitamins you can do too (not rogaine) that can help. Have you had your iron & vitamin D checked? Keep the heat styling away as much as you can and be gentle. You got this!! 😉
I’m going through hair loss too and i’m suspecting i have telogen effluvium due to stress, my hair feels very dry and damage when i use to have soft hair and even after applying oil and hair mask it still feels like grass. Does your hair feels dry too?
I have TE from low ferritin right now and I had it 15 years ago. I can tell you that 15 years ago once my ferritin was up to the proper levels I did recover all of my hair. Right now I just got my ferritin up enough to stop the shedding, I have to get it up 25 more points to see regrowth according my doctor. I'm hoping I will recover it all again. :) I hope this helps.
Angela Wallace Hi, ive also been anemic for years, 1/2 of my hair is gone but it’s nothing like it used to be, im losing very very thin and short hairs, everything that grows back is miniaturized looking hair, is this what you’ve experienced with low ferritin?
@@angelawallace2999 how do you get your ferritin levels up? Iron has to be absorbed to be stored and I'm thinking my problem is with absorption because haemoglobin levels are always normal...
Hello ! I hope you can reply to me. How do I know if I have TE or a Allergic reaction to a hair product? My hair has been falling out along with itchiness and some bumps on my scalp. This has been going for almost a month.
If the itchiness & irritation happened a few days after using it. It is from the product. You need to try to figure out what the ingredient is you are allergic to so it doesn't happen again. An antihistamine mine help with your rash symptoms & if not you need to see a dermatologist. I hope it clears up for you😉
Dear Tabitha, since my hysterectomy january 2020 my hair has been thinning gradually, without any big shedding. The surgeon who is also my gynecologist did all the tests possible and everything is fine. Now my hair is thin and without life. I bought minoxidil and started my 2 month, my hair started to fall more. I really dont know what to do..
I am so sorry this is happening.😔 Sometimes after a major surgery like yours the gut & hormones are unbalanced. I would go see a nutritionist that could make sure your eating foods to balance hormones and have a healthy gut. I have an ebook for $10 that is on my website that has everything you can do to help your hair growth. AGA ebook. www.tabithafhair.com/shop
i’m a bit late, but i had telogen effluvium from october to december. it fell out really bad then stopped completely until about a week ago when it started shedding really badly again. my trigger for it the first time was anorexia, ive been recovered for a while now, i have no clue why my hair is starting to shed again. there is no trigger i can think of, ive been eating good and taking vitamins. i just have no clue why it started again :/
I am sorry you are going through it again😔 I have a couple clients who went through the same thing. I had them start taking a probiotic and it stopped & so far they have not had any more TE. This tells me that their gut needed more good bacteria. Please try it for a month and let me know if this helps you too. ❤️
What about hair breakage and hair fall from the root as a direct cause of GX shampoo? Is the damage caused permanent or will even the hair that’s come out with the white bulb on the end grow back eventually even though it’s as a direct result of the chemicals in the shampoo?
You should be Ok. Your hair should start to grow back, but just be aware that your hair follicles are inflamed now so make sure you are taking a hair, skin & nail vitamin and being really good at eating anti-inflammatory foods. Smoking is also not good either😉
Thank you 🙏 I stopped using it weeks ago so I hope it will stop shedding g and breaking and regrow. Should I see a dermatologist or would that be futile? Which hair vitamins would you recommend! I’m taking biotin orally and using biotin shampoo and conditioner. Not so concerned by the breaking but would the chemicals on the actual scalp making those hairs that came out with the white bulb on the end make the loss of THOSE hairs permanent and unable to grow back?
@@dannykirsch Biotin is a great start. I am still researching vitamins but a good one from whole foods or nutrition store where there is no additional fillers or dyes. Everything that I have been taught is that Biotin by itself isn't as good as a Total Hair, skin & nail vitamin. The follicles should still be fine. Did you use the shampoo for a really long time?
@@dannykirsch Oh good. I dont think a Dermatologist would really do anything for you. If you have a Trichologist in the area they could look at your scalp with a microscope to see if the follicles are still inflamed but I think you are doing everything right.😉 Let me know when it all comes back😊
Thank you for the information! I started noticing heavy shedding in June, which continued into September. I’m shedding less now, but my density hasn’t returned. I’m having trouble identifying my exact trigger. Any tips? Some possibilities... I began a low-androgen triphasic birth control pill in March (discontinued in July due to possible trigger for the hair loss). I also had a fainting/vomiting episode in February when doing a HIT workout. In March, I had a muscle strain that I went to PT for. At this time, i started to eat more calories and exercising regularly. I also had a few UTIs during this time, which I took antibiotics for.
Hi Hannah! Sorry you have had so many things going on, but it sounds like it was probably the hormones from the birth control. This just happened to me this year when I had an IUD put in. We are just hormone sensitive. Which is a good thing to keep in mind for the future. It takes a couple of months for those hairs to kick back into the growth phase and start seeing hair. Remember hair grows very slow. Get on a good hair, skin & nail vitamin & hair growing shampoo. Get your protein intake in as well and your vitamin D. I do have more information that I am always posting on my IG @tabithahairstylist Or my Facebook TabithaFhair. Let me know when you see all those baby hairs come back in😉
Misguided Lights Wow! Thank you for sharing your experience. I noticed hair loss in those areas too! I am also shedding significantly less. When I wash my hair (every 2-4 days) I shed 100-200 hairs I would say (depending on the time since my last wash). My baby hairs along my crown are growing but I’m waiting to return to my full density. I am on a multivitamin and 5000 mg of biotin. That’s awesome that iron pills support your hair health and general well-being around your cycle. May I ask if your cycles are regular? I battle with extreme irregularity. I can bleed every two weeks, though I’m not sure if I am actually ovulating or if this is just uterine lining shedding. Being a woman is complicated!
Misguided Lights I also heard that it will take around 2 years to return to full density. All we can do is focus on nutrition and scalp health to destress and provide a good foundation for regrowth, I suppose. Please let me know how the onion and garlic hair mask works for you. Coconut oil makes my already oily scalp too greasy. I have also lost around 30-40% of my hair. It’s pretty wild how similar our stories are. Which pill were you on? I was on tri-lo-sprintec.
Misguided Lights WHAT?! Okay. This makes me feel a lot less crazy. My doctors said I must be extra sensitive to hormones because it’s a very low androgenic. I will have to try this hair mask. In the meantime, I’ll just have to wait patiently and take care of my body. Let me know how your hair is doing a couple months from now! I’ll do the same 😊
I got on a bad diet and now I m shedding so much hair I'm 20 it s been 7 months no regrowth no less shading I'm going bald I m so hopless I Don t think it s ever ganja be the same
Love your channel and think this is needed. FYI, what hair vitamins/brands do you recommend? Overall, TE is traumatic. So it's hard to keep your stress down when hair is coming out. I am told it will come back.Is this true? I am hoping it will come back even better b/c I have improved my diet so much. I did have a hormone specialist MESS with mine about 3 months prior to. Ladies beware of Bio Identical hormones. And it actually made my Thyroid reduce. And I paid for this help! Off all meds and redoing bloodwork.
I am so glad that you are doing better and it is super hard to keep your stress down. Yes! The hair does come back. So after the hair falls out in the Telogen phase a new hair is automatically being grown underneath it. I know it is hard but try to think about ALL the new hair coming back than the hair that is in your hands. It seems to help alot of my clients from stressing to much. Just make sure you are doing everything to keep the scalp healthy inside & out. In my salon we use XTC products. But if you can't find them at a local salon make sure you get a good quality hair skin & nail vitamin from a natural food store. Good luck😉
TabithaFHair Thank you so much!! Loved your shampoo tips. Will rinse super well and love your conditioner tips too. Please please keep up this channel its so refreshing!! Any shampoos you like? TBH I think shampoos are all marketing hogwash. Like unfortunately I love Oribe $$$. Just makes my hair nice but I don’t think for one minute its a miracle. FYI, after some reading I did an apple cider rinse this week for the first time. My scalp itch is like gone! I am hooked! 💖💖
You are so sweet. I am very new to this you tube world so thank you. I have heard wonderful things about Oribe. I have seen great things with Zenegen too. I would stick with a shampoo for your scalp. No matter what the brand. And YASS! The apple cider is amazing. Keep it up. Your hair will feel new within a few months. Do you have a Trichologist in your area? They could use a microscope to see down in the hair follicle to see if you have build up & what is going on with your itchiness. Do you have food alergys or get itchy after haircolor?
TabithaFHair Oops! Hit send. Okay back to update, hair fall stopped after 4 months, classic TE. I have new hairs. They are everywhere. But hard to style. Hair still feels thin. It will take years before I am back. Do I know the cause? Can’t say 💯. But I would love to tell you more, as their were a few things going on at the time, only can I email or DM? 💖🙌
I had gastric sleeve done Feb 1, 2020 and I also have a thyroid issue since I was 37. Three months after the surgery my hair started to fall out in handfuls. I am a licensed hairdresser and I always knew to tell my clients about stress, thyroid, rapid weight loss, etc. My concern is how long is this going to last. I had my hair cut up to my shoulders to help but my entire disposition has lowered my self esteem. I was wondering if I could dye my hair. I also am on vitamins, biotin, collegan and fish oil. I know my nutrition was poor in the first 2 months after surgery but now I am really feeling great but my hair, UGH. I started to put a satin cap over my hair to sleep and that has helpled. My hair is fine and curly too so that is a stress to my hair.
Hi Allie, I had a client go through this same experience. It took a little over 6 months for the shedding to slow. 😢 It was so hard for her. She has naturally curly hair so we kept it short. It all came back & she is still rocking a short curly pixie. Make sure you are getting enough protein & your body is absorbing all nutrients from your foods you are eating. Let me know when you go back to normal shedding. (how long it took) I wish you the best. 😍
I had weight loss 5 months ago..after two months i started to have massive and horrible hairfall...my hair volume is not changed i guess..but my hairline has become thin...will.. that time i used to loose 150 to 200 hairs daily and after washing it was around 800 to 900...now i loose around 20 to 40 daily and around 100 after washing..is my TE ending.? Will my hair grow back? How much time will it take?
Hi, just found your channel, it's full of really helpful and sensible advice ☺️. I wanted to ask why doesn't TE hair all fall out at the same time? Thank you!
Hi. Not all hair gets pushed into the telogen phase. Thank the Universe 😉 Even when you do have TE, You are only losing 25-50% of your hair. Even though it seems like you will lose it all. 😔
Hello Ma'am, I'm 17 and going to turn 18 very soon. It's my last year of high school and the pressure is immense. I wanted to change my stream but I couldn't and studies are putting so much pressure on me. At one point during late March and early April the stress was so much and I used to get anxiety attacks frequently that my psychiatrist had to put me on anti stress and anxiety medicines plus I have numerous mental breakdowns every month especially a week before my periods. And it puts so much stress on my body.I also had a high viral fever in mid October. Now I have a very thin hair and I have dandruff too. Plus my hair now are lesser at the top partitions till the back of the crown, also on the sides and the on the hairline as well. I'm so self conscious and slowly losing all of my confidence .I'm so sad :(((( I wanna know if my hair will be back or not s d how many months will it take? My hairfall was severe in November and its December ending now as well.
Oh, it hurts me to hear you go through all this. I hope you are finding ways to get out of your funk. Since you are having scalp issues like dandruff you need to make sure you are eating super healthy & cutting out sugars & anything that might cause you inflammation. If you can find a salon near you that sells XTC scalp prep. It will help your dandruff. I would also get on a hair, skin & nail vitamin & a probiotic for the skin. Most importantly... reduce your stress. (Easy,right?)🙄 Find something that helps. Yoga, meditation, even CBD oil has helped many clients of mine. Make sure that you discuss the CBD with your Dr. First if you are taking other meds. Let me know what helps you!! I wish you the best❤
@@prometheus6853 they’re not the best, still a lil thin but much much better than what i was going through then :) im 20 now, i took hair supplements and eat ashwagandha and biotin tabs along with regular bhringaraj and castor oil massage. Hair quality has improved immensely
i am 28 years old 8 months ago i had left sub mandibular surgery i loosed my wight and meantime my GF she and i broke up after those incidents i lost to much hairs on my scalp now its been a 8 months now hair fall has completely stopped so do you think i am experiencing telogen effluvium or its Androgenetic alopecia thank you
Yes, since the Hair fall out has stopped It sounds like it was TE from your surgery & Stress. Keep eating good and start taking a Hair, Skin & Nail vitamin. You will start seeing those new hairs coming back soon. Just be patient 😉
Hey, my hair has always been healthy but this year around July I started noticing that my hair is falling a lot and I see my scalp a lot more on crown area. My hair became so thin in that area. My hair do not shed a lot anymore. Even when I run my fingers through my hair, I barely get a hair out. But my scalp still has thin hair and I can see my scalp a lot. I am really worried about my hair. It’s already October, I don’t even know if any new hair is coming out or not. But can you tell me what will happen and about how much time it will take to make my scalp/hair healthy like before ? Will it ever go back to the way it was ?
Hi there, It is so hard to say without looking at your scalp but I would ask you if anything has changed as far as hormone shifts or Thyroid? I would go see your doctor and check to see if these are not balanced. I would also check your vitamin D & Iron levels. And if you are getting too much vitamin A. Get on a hair growing shampoo in the meantime. I really hope this resolves for you😉
@@kharbanda1988 if you can get XTC products at a local salon that is the best. They offer a nutrient complex & shampoo. If you do not have a distributor nearby than go with a reputable company that you trust to find a supplement. Something pure with no fillers😉
Can TE cause a change in hair texture? My hair has been really dry even after use mask and hair oils when i used to have much manageable softer hair, and i dont use any heat on my hair.
HI! Usually the changes in the texture of the hair happens inside the body and scalp. Usually (not always)brittle, coarse hair is the sign of thyroid. Have you had your hormones & thyroid checked? Also, your scalp could be dehydrated. Something is messing with the oil production & the hair follicle.Do you use rogaine or have any scalp conditions? These can dehydrate the scalp & change your texture. I would start taking a hair skin & nail vitamin & collegen to add the vitamins needed for your hair and scalp. Use a non-comedogenic conditioner on your scalp as well.😊
Doctors won't do any further thyroid testing if basic test comes back normal, even though I have more symptoms than hair loss. Had first bout of te after really bad flu last March. Ferritin levels are always low when I'm tested. Hair loss stopped in about August but started again a couple of months ago, now I am starting to have bald spots that I can barely cover. Going through menopause means there is a hormonal component too. I'm taking iron and b12 and d vitamins and collagen. It's very distressing, feeling so bad about myself...
I am so sorry Pauline. It can be so stressful. How is your gut health after your flu? Were you on Antibiotics as well during that time? Make sure your protein intake is good & stress is down😉
@@tabithafhair no, I didn't take antibiotics, I am on a probiotic now anyway and I get plenty of protein. Stress is a hard one, I've never dealt well with stress... thanks for your reply.
This can happen to guys too right? i started losing hair more in the shower and even when i brush it. i can run my hands through my hair or even pull it and hair strands will fall. This started around a year ago when i started dental school. It is so stressful and hard and there have been lots of sleepless nights and im sure this is the cause of my hair loss. its a stressful cycle. My hairline isnt receding, its generalized hairloss and seems to have affected my whole scalp. i think i lost about 50% or more now :( What can i do?
This happens to men too. It's easy for me to say stop the stress..right? Make sure you are eating well when you are stressed. I know your body craves carbs when you are stressed but really try to eat healthy during these times. Get on a good hair, skin and nail vitamin. Get one from a whole foods or reputable company. Start using a hair growing shampoo. I recommend XTC hair products but you can only find them in salons. They do have a salon finder on their website. Make sure your vitamin D and Ferritin levels are where they need to be as well.😉
Usually it slows down gradually. Remember that Normal hair shedding is still 50-100hairs per day. Make sure you are on a good hair, skin & nail vitamin to slow down the excess shedding. 😉 Talk to your Dr. If you are on other meds before adding vitamins.
I think I'm having the telogen effluvium right now. This time in the quarantine, I almost exercise everyday (some of those exercises are new to me and at first I'm having a hard time doing it until I got the hang of it). I also dont have a good diet plan (less calories and I almost dont eat a day) and after 3-4 months of doing it, my hair is falling like crazy but it has those kind of white bulbs on the end pf each hair that falls off. I'm currently having a balance diet (taking vitamins and healthy foods). Hopefully I can recover.
@@tabithafhair Hi! Mine started from early June this year and it's my 7th month! I feel it's less than previous months but still it's a lot! I lost a lot of weight by doing exercise, and not taking enough proteins! Will I ever recover?
@@poushalibhattacharyay5810 Start taking a hair, skin and nail vitamin & maybe even start a skin probiotic. Check your iron & vitamin D levels and eat foods to balance your hormones. We have to stop the shedding. 😉
What if it’s been 3 years and the new hairs keep falling out? I am on vitamins, protein, mega B’s. It is caused by stressful situation,and even though the stress is gone now my hair cycle has been changed. I also feel a tingling before it happens again. I have shaved my head and no longer even feel like being out anywhere. I have been using Nioxin for years. I am at a loss.😪😪😪😪😪😪😪😪😪
Lisa, I am so sorry that you are going through this. The vitamins you are taking are great but make sure you are getting protein & iron in your diet too. I would even start taking a marine collagen every day too. This will really give your skin and scalp a boost in protein & make you look you younger 👍. I have my clients use Vital Proteins Marine Collagen. Every single client has noticed a difference in their skin & scalp. I would maybe try Bosley for your hair care instead of Nioxin too. Make sure you get it directly from Bosley & not a 3rd party as there is diversion on this product. You want the real deal. I hope this helps you. If you have any other questions, let me know😉
Hi Miky, Make sure you find out what you trigger was. Stress? Hormones? Meds? And address the cause. Your hair should grow back like it was before. You have youth on your side so eat well & stay positive. 💕
Can a new hair vitamin cause hair loss? I was just thinking about a week ago how thick and nice my hair was looking. Then all of a sudden over this week I have clumps of hair coming out. About double than I normally do. I started a new hair vitamin about a month ago. Just wondering if that could be a factor.
TabithaFHair About 5 months ago I had two sudden deaths in my family. I didn’t even consider that being a factor. It caused a lot of stress and sadness for these past few months.
I am so sorry for your losses. I cant even imagine your strength. This is your factor. Stress does alot to your body. Your body is super smart. During stress your body is using all of its energy to protect your vital organs. Our hair is not a vital organ😔 When our body is under stress, our gut has a hard time absorbing vitamin B. This is essential for hair growth. Keep taking your hair vitamin. Get some vital protein marine Collagen and take that every day as well. Start eating foods high in vitamin B. Try meditation or yoga to keep that stress down( easy for me to say, right?) You can do it! The shedding should start to slow down 3 months after it started. Remember your hair is growing new hair already so you will have alot of baby hairs coming in. If you have anything else you want to talk about you can email me at Tabithafhair@gmail.com
You Naturally lose 50-100 hairs per day. If you feel like you are losing more than that or are seeing Alot of hair in your brush or when you run your fingers through your hair & see many hairs come out at once you probably you have TE. TE is a noticeable change in hairs coming out.
I just ended my second bought with TE. This time it lasted 7 mos. This time was much worse. It has begun to regrow, very slowly, but 2 small areas are still showing very thin/bald areas. I am hoping that changes in the next few months. This is a painful condition to endure.
It is soooo frustrating isnt it? Do you have a trichologist near you that could look at the patches under a microscope? Because if there are active follicles you could try a topical vitamin or even a hand held laser. I have seen great results with both. Keep taking a good hair, skin and nail vitamin & add in some Marine Collagen. To get those hairs to produce and grow a little faster so you can see them sooner. Good luck girl. Let me know what works for you!
Hi, Berlin I am sorry you are feeling worried. I would try to find a Trichologist or a Hair Loss Practitioner in your area that can look at your hair follicles with a microscope & go over what is happening inside your body. You can start by getting on a good hair, skin & nail vitamin. What did you mean by onion?
Tabitha Fredrichs thanks for ur kind reply I m from Pakistan 🇵🇰 I used onion 🌰 that is definitely a vegetable U may listen that onion is very good for hair regrow So i used it by frying it in mustard oil I used that oil daily in 3 weeks After a month my hairs started shedding magically I m really so much worried
Hi, I have read a little about topical onion and how it is beneficial but do not have any other material on it. Sometimes when those hair follicles are getting cleaned out from build up, you can have a little more shedding to start before it helps. Cell turn over is every other day.. so I would only do it every other day and see if your shedding slows down. I hope it helps😊
You will always lose 50-100hairs per day and more on wash days. This is normal. If you are still having TE for this long please see a Trichologist or Dermatologist for tests. 💕
Hello, this past month I have used a shampoo from the drugstore that caused my hair to start shedding more than normal, not in clumps, but a lot of strands coming out in the shower and easily when I brushed it. I researched the shampoo and there are hundreds of reviews of people having the same issue. I don’t know if this would be classified as TE or just a period of shedding due to the shampoo. but I recently stopped using it about two weeks ago and so I’m hoping my hair will stop shedding soon. I got the vitafusion gummies for hair skin and nails and I’m also doing a mask once a week. Any thoughts?
Hi there, I do not think this is TE if you started noticing right after you started the shampoo. Alot of drugstore shampoos are not what they say, that is why you always want to purchase from a salon or Ulta. This happened to one of my clients who bought shampoo from TJ Max. It was full of bacteria & caused an inflammation on the scalp or it was something that your body was allergic to. Do you have sores or bumps on your scalp? Do they itch? If not, I would get a scalp shampoo with tea tree oil in it & use that for awhile to help eliminate any bacteria. If you have bumps or sores you might need something stronger like a cortisone cream or a shampoo with ketoconazole in it. Keep consistent with the vitamins. Your doing it right😉
TabithaFHair I do not have any rash or anything on my scalp, just some dandruff. The shampoo did a good job of making my hair soft and shiny, but for some reason there is something in it that is making people’s hair fall out. Do you know how long this shedding will last? It’s been almost 3 weeks and I’m still losing hair in the shower. Not so much during the day when it’s dry.
@@marissalynn123 I would start using a hair growing shampoo like Nioxin or Zenagen & you will see alot less shedding. Some people have reported extra shedding for 3 - 6 weeks when this happens. It should slow down soon. Let me know when it slows down for you🙂
Vit D can definitely cause increased hair shedding. My dr stated this. My level was at a 13. I shed a lot or hair. I was placed on prescription Vit D 50,000IU weekly for 4 months then switched over to OTC vit D3. It will take time because hair is not vital for life, so when you take any supplement or vitamins it will go to where it’s needed inside your body first, your hair will always be the last to get the nutrients. Also vitamin D functions more like a hormone for your body. If you are experiencing shedding as a result of a vitamin deficiency, you’ve had it for a while and you’re just now seeing the result of this if you’re hair is now coming out. Again, because you hair is the last thing to experience the effects as well as the nutrient uptake.
This has been happening for the past 10 years the hair will just shed out you keep talking about 3 months ago this is been ongoing for about 10 years and I'm not stressed at all his other avenues to this? ... can't even grow an afro or anything if I get a low-cut that's fine but if I choose to grow my hair out it grows slow and then eventually it falls out I'm not stressed about anything
How frustrating. Have you seen a Trichologist or a Natural path? You might not be absorbing enough nutrition from your food or have other gut issues. A lot of medications will do this as well & if you are diabetic.
Usually it takes about 2-3 weeks but it depends on genetics & what it happening inside the body. It could take longer. Up to 3 months before you see new hair.
@@poushalibhattacharyay5810 if there is no genetic factors than the new hair underneath would push out the old hair. Everyone is different on how fast their hair grows. You should be able to visibly see it from 1-3 months. 😊
Hi there! If there is a white hard bulb on the end of the hair that has fallen out, the hair should start to within 4 weeks but might not be noticable to the eye for a couple months😉
Thank you so much for the detailed information and the encouragement. Especially, that a new hair is growing for everyone that’s falling out.
My parents were two abusive narcissist I contribute the hair loss to the stress of dealing with them all my life
I'm so sorry you had to go through that. I hope you are at a better place in your life now.🥰
You are saying 3 months before it starts falling out.. I thought mine was from trauma/surgery because it started falling out within a week of breaking both ankles and having surgery... 3 months before that? nothing I can think of. I have had numerous surgeries in my life and this has never happened.. Also its been 3 years and it's not recovered so I guess it's not that.. maybe menopause? But I had been dealing with those symptom for 10 years and it's never affected my hair before.. ANYWAY.... my hair has become very thin and has not recovered. I am now taking mega vitamins for two weeks and am hoping in the long run it will come back.
It can happen right away with severe trauma and heavy medication. Sorry you have gone through that. That's sounds awful. Are you better now?
I’m a single mom of an autistic son with no support that’s going through puberty. So trauma ongoing without a break
Im going through this right now i have just had a bioosy last week still awaiting the result's its very stressful to say the least! 😔💚
Very stressful. I have a full ebook on this now that will help.

Thank you for this video, as a man. I really was stressed about my hair coming out. This week was 3 months to the day i had covid . I was so sick and stressed out , plus with stresses of money, work. Plus is super dry in Colorado right now. I noticed more hair then usual coming out. Which is even more stressful. I have to learn to calm down. Plus not be tough with my hair. With towels, combs, blow dryer. Im taking all your advice plus seeing a dermatologist this week. I have really nice thick hair so it really bothers me to see it in my hands while i shower. I used bed head number 2 for the longest. And had great results as far as great hair.
I am so sorry you are going through so many things at once. I am glad that are stressing less and seeing a Dr. I hope it all resolves for you soon.
I live in Colorado as well and I notice that every few years I am sort of molting, it is upsetting. It is so dry here and i feel like I can't condition my hair enough and I only shampoo once a week. Bu this molting only lasts a few months in the dry winter and then it stops in the spring. I eat lots of oily fish like sardines and tuna in olive oil and I swear it helps with regrowing my hair and it gets thick again. :)
Hi Tabitha! 😊Hope you are fine. Iam facing hair shedding since mid August this year. It’s almost been 2 months. I feel I have lost around 2/3rd of my hair already. Can you tell me How Long should I expect for the hair shedding to stop and Does it stop suddenly or gradually ?
I went to a dermatologist too. He gave me B12, Iron tablets and Qilib spray to apply on the scalp for 3 months.
Look forward to hearing from you 😊
Hi! I am so sorry you are going through this. It is scary having been through this 2 times myself.
It will last about 3-6 months. You will slowly see that there is less hair coming out. Start using a good hair growth shampoo too so it will keep the scalp & hair follicle healthy.😉
Has it stop?
Riya Gundial Hi !😊yes it has stopped .. my hair is growing back now ... so happy see it grow back.. although it will take time for the length to come back ... but at least it has started to grow... Thankyou for checking 😊
@@nehavasal my hair shedding slows down but does not stop...its has been 5 months...m vry tensed....does it stop suddenly or slow down before stop??? How many months after ur hair fall stop?
Riya Gundial I Guess another 1 or 2 months it should be fine... slow down is also gradual... just don’t worry 😊. Relax
If you have Larger hairs & Smaller hairs next to it. It might be Androgenetic Alopecia, but there could be other factors. Do you have hereditary hair loss in your family? Are you on medications?
TE is when you have handfuls of hair falling out all at once.
TabithaFHair, i have a question about it. I am 15 years old male. One and a half month ago i started having excessive hair loss and it slowed down after 4 weeks after i started using anti dandruff shampoo, because i had dandruff at the same time. Now my hair are very very thin. I want to ask if this hair loss is due to MPB or Telogen effluvium. I have noticed that not all of my hairs have the same width(diameter), when they shed. Some of them ar thicker and the others are thinner. I have lost hair from almost every part of my head but most of them were lost from the top of my scalp( the left side is a little bit worse) and from a spot that is located above my ears( in the two sides of my head). I have visited a dermatologist but he didnt tell me if its mpb or te. I am afraid that it might be androgenetic alopecia but the only bald member of my family is my 80 year old grandfather. My father 50 years old, has only widow peaks and his father 82 years old, has only widow peaks too but his hair is a little bit thinner. In addition i am not mature enough for my age, namely i dont have facial hair and i have very little body hair. Theoritically speaking, it cant be mpb because i dont have high DHT levels( dht causes the growth of body and facial hair). Although the only bald member of my family is my 80 year old grandfather, and even though i am only 15 and i dont have facial or body hair, is there any possibility that my hair loss is due to mpb and not because of TE? Edit: Also five months ago i had high anxiety levels and a moderate depression( but i didnt take any medication).
@@nickgior3849 Hi Nick.
It sounds like you have TE. MPB is just like it is. It starts in a pattern and continues.
It is very common for TE to look like you might have lost more hair on one side of the head or the other. Your stress levels are probably what caused it.
What type of dandruff do you think you have? Is it white, flaky, dry? Or is it oily and clumpy at the scalp?
This could cause you to have those smaller hairs. Sebum can build up and harden in the follicles and make the hairs smaller because they are blocked.
@@tabithafhair my dandruff is actually seborrheic dermatitis. My scalp is very dry ( i can understand it when i scratch it) but for some reason my hair becomes oily if i dont wash them everyday. I have started taking biotin supplements to help my hair regrow because i have lost the 50% of it.
@@nickgior3849 ok. With seborrhea you need to alternate between a shampoo with selenium sulfide & a shampoo with salicylic acid. This will calm it down.
Dairy can trigger this or a food allergy. I would eliminate dairy for a month and see if this helps.
I also have clients who really benefit from taking a skin probiotic. It has taken it away completely in some clients.
Keep taking your Biotin & get your iron & vitamin D checked.
@@tabithafhair thank you very much
What is maximum hair loss? I have been shedding since March and I feel like I have lost about 60% of my hair. Can i lose more than 70%?
I have TE after stopping on birth control pills, I got back on them right away but I've been shedding for 5 months now and my scalp hurts so bad! It feels like needels are poking my skin. (High testosterone)
I am sorry you are going through this. Try to help the inflammation you are having with food. This will help with the scalp pain. Look up anti-inflammatory diet and try for 4 weeks. Let me know if it helps you. It has worked for my clients. ❤️
Hi! Hope u can answer. I have been struggling with TE for 11 months now.. my hair was so long and thick and now I have only one third of it left😣 I am pretty sure it was caused by a hormone IUD because the shedding started 2,5 months after taking it.
I waited 8 months if the situation calmed down but it didint so I took the IUD out 1,5 months ago. My hair is still shedding. My shedding was really bad for the first 6 months but after that it has slowed down, just a little bit. I have lots of baby hairs all over my head right now but my hair is still falling out, and the most scary thing is seeing those babyhairs fall 😣😣 does the situation get better after removing the cause (IUD) and how long does the hair take to react to hormone changes? I really cant handle with this shedding anymore😵💫
This is so hard. This happened to me and it took about a year to settle down. When you are on birth control, it can mess with your gut and how you absorb your nutrition. I have a full e-book on how I turned mine around and it has helped so many people with TE.
You will want the Telogen effluvium (TE) ebook.

What’s a good hair loss shampoo for oily hair and use daily
Hi, I haven’t been diagnosed yet but Im pretty sure I have telogen effluvium and my doctor didn’t give me anything insightful because my iron and thyroid levels are good. It’s the stress from college and I noticed that I started losing a lot of hair after I started sleeping at irregular times ( 3am, 2am, 2:30am, etc). It’s been 2 years now and I have less than half of the hair that I used to have. I’m still very young and I have tried taking a lot of hair vitamins and the shampoos I’ve been using are made with biotin and collagen. Im not sure its working because recently I have been noticing sparse and almost bald areas on the top part of my scalp. My hairline is already really bad and it’s really wide. I’m losing a lot of confidence in myself and the way I look due to my hair :( I was wondering what recommendations you have to help with the hair regrowth process and how to stop hair from falling out. Also what brand shampoo do you recommend and what essential oils do you recommend and how do you use it?
Hi Kristi. It is super stressful isnt it?
I would have your vitamin D checked as well. Did you add or change birth control during this time? It sounds hormone related if it is all over. (If you would rather email me for the answers)
Tabithafhair@gmail.com
Food is going to be helpful as well as your vitamins, and probiotics as well. I have a blog post on what to look for in a probiotic.

How is your scalp? Does it itch or are you oily? Do you have this in your family? Have you had food allergy testing?
Six months, & the hair is still falling out. Thankfully, my hair was very thick to start with. When will it end?
You need to find the trigger of why it is shedding. You can usually know the trigger by going back 2-3 months before shedding started.❤️
@@tabithafhair Yes, I know, but nothing momentous occrred 3 months prior to the onset of the fallout.
I just got diagnosed with TE just recently and have lost about half my hair from it. Do you sell your shampoos and topical vitamins online or where I could purchase them???
Hi Shannon, Sorry you are going through this. Right now I just sell it at my salon. Do you have a Trichologist in your area? If you dont, let me know and I could send you some.
Get on a hair,skin & nail vitamin right away and I have seen amazing things with collagen too. Get 'within us Tru Marine Collagen.'
TabithaFHair no. Unfortunately we live in a very small rural community. My Dermatologist that did my scalp Biopsy was 3 hours away and she called me to tell me my DX was TE. I have take Biotin for many years and take a really good liquid collagen by modere along with regular supplements. I eat well including good Protein. Yet I have still losing hair. She did put me on a Steroid foam for a few weeks to rub in my head at night. But I’m not big on steroid medication. So I was hoping you might could help me with more cleaner topical agents to help with regrow the. I’m desperate at this point... Thanks...
Please email me. I would love to send you the products that have worked for me and my clients.

Hi is it good to massage your scalp when you have TE, I can't find the right answer for it online, some say yes it's good for the follicles and some say don't, can you put me in the right direction with this.
Thank you for posting this video, I've lost 70% of my hair now and still falling out after 10 months 😔
Gentle circular massage is fine but sometimes just making sure you have the shampoo all over and leaving it on for 2-5 minutes will make sure you scalp is getting clean is fine.
I know this is a tough one when you are losing hair.😞
Thanks for this very informative video. I ve had 3 bouts of telogen effluvium. The first one was in may to july last year. Thought it was just stress-related used to have a fine thick hair. 2 nd bout happened last dec when i had my hair dyed. Hair loss was from 50-200 a day...i dyed my hair again march 2019 while i still have an ongoing TE. Hair loss has gone from bad to worst shedding off 300 hairs in one day! Noticed my hair was dry and coarse too. Tried nioxin for 3 mos but to no avail... any reco please... my hair is super thin that i have to wear wig or extension. Pls help, tabitha. All medical and lab work ups returned nirmal....Thanks. Btw, just wearing an extension in my profile picture. God bless and more power
Hi Grace, it is so frustrating when you are in it, right?
Do you feel like it was caused by your color treatments?
I know that having your ferretin (iron) levels and vitamin D checked would be good. Alot of dr.'s will tell you that your ferretin is normal (12 -150) but it really needs to be around 70 for hair growth. Please ask your dr. For the exact number on this.
Please start taking a hair, skin and nail vitamin with Collagen every day. This will make a huge impact on the amount of hairs you are losing a day.
I would love to send you a bottle of my shampoo that has transformed my hair.
Email me at tabithafhair@gmail.com
And if you have any more questions.
TabithaFHair really appreciate your prompt and extensive response. I was told that i developed scalp contact dermatitis due to repetitive dyeing of hair... Will ask my dr. About the exact range of my vit d and ferritin level. Will send you an email in a while .. More power. 😘
Did they give you anything for the dermatitis?
Just an oral corticosteroids and anti-histamine. Impression was allergic contac dermititis due to chemical dye i developed mild burning sensation on my scalp. No lesion or whatsoever. Been on biotin 10000 and zinc pico since december..
You're the first person I've read who's had the same situation as me! My t.e started from repeated hair dying and got contact dermatitis from it. Have you found any advice on it? It's been 9 months for me now and still no improvement x

Hi Jenn,
You want a shampoo that promotes scalp health and hair growth.
The ones I have seen work are XTC, Zenegen & Bosley.
Make sure you get them from the company themselves because there is alot of diversion with these products.
Let me know what works for you😉
I experienced this, after going through series of traumatic events at 26 years old. Hair loss didn't run in my family as a woman.
However, evey doctor I, seen blow me, off. Not one asked any questions on what, I had gone through . Lost eyebrows, eye lashes, and the hair on my arms and legs thinned out.
I finally, found an dermatologist that validate it.
I probably will never have that, thick lush hair I, once had.
Moreover, I survived those events.
Thank you for sharing your story. There are more & more trained Trichologists everyday.
Hopefully one day we can have them at every clinic or town to help people like you who need answers.
@@tabithafhair Absolutely agree.
Hello! Do you know how long it takes for a new strand of hair to sprout out of the follicle after the hair has fallen out?
Hair grows on average 1/2 inch a month. It should be about 2- 3 months before you will see something.
I'm also suffering from T. E after 2mnhs of my covid recovery. This stage is very very stressful bt at the same time stress triggers more and more hairfall. Dr has told me to wait for 3months for regrowth. Bt waiting in such a situation is very much hard!
This is so hard. I'm sorry. 😔

Hi! I went through tellogen effluvium earlier this year due to low ferritin and stress and lost about 60% of my hair 😭 it was absolutely traumatic and although its not shedding any more im left with very thin hair! My hair used to be extremely thick and may i add im only 18. Now that it has stopped shedding for about 4 months, i am seeing SOME regrowth but not merely as much as what I lost. How long do you think it would take to have full recovery of my old thick hair? I improved my diet and i apply hair masks! What do you think??
Hi! I am so sorry you went through this. So glad that it has stopped. Hair grows about 1/2 inch a month so it is a slow go😑
I would get on a good hair,skin & nail vitamin to keep it growing from the inside & keep eating good. There are natural topical liquid vitamins you can do too (not rogaine) that can help. Have you had your iron & vitamin D checked?
Keep the heat styling away as much as you can and be gentle.
You got this!! 😉
I’m going through hair loss too and i’m suspecting i have telogen effluvium due to stress, my hair feels very dry and damage when i use to have soft hair and even after applying oil and hair mask it still feels like grass. Does your hair feels dry too?
I have TE from low ferritin right now and I had it 15 years ago. I can tell you that 15 years ago once my ferritin was up to the proper levels I did recover all of my hair. Right now I just got my ferritin up enough to stop the shedding, I have to get it up 25 more points to see regrowth according my doctor. I'm hoping I will recover it all again. :) I hope this helps.
Angela Wallace Hi, ive also been anemic for years, 1/2 of my hair is gone but it’s nothing like it used to be, im losing very very thin and short hairs, everything that grows back is miniaturized looking hair, is this what you’ve experienced with low ferritin?
@@angelawallace2999 how do you get your ferritin levels up? Iron has to be absorbed to be stored and I'm thinking my problem is with absorption because haemoglobin levels are always normal...
Hello ! I hope you can reply to me. How do I know if I have TE or a Allergic reaction to a hair product? My hair has been falling out along with itchiness and some bumps on my scalp. This has been going for almost a month.
If the itchiness & irritation happened a few days after using it. It is from the product. You need to try to figure out what the ingredient is you are allergic to so it doesn't happen again. An antihistamine mine help with your rash symptoms & if not you need to see a dermatologist.
I hope it clears up for you😉
Dear Tabitha, since my hysterectomy january 2020 my hair has been thinning gradually, without any big shedding. The surgeon who is also my gynecologist did all the tests possible and everything is fine. Now my hair is thin and without life. I bought minoxidil and started my 2 month, my hair started to fall more. I really dont know what to do..
I am so sorry this is happening.😔
Sometimes after a major surgery like yours the gut & hormones are unbalanced. I would go see a nutritionist that could make sure your eating foods to balance hormones and have a healthy gut.
I have an ebook for $10 that is on my website that has everything you can do to help your hair growth. AGA ebook.

i’m a bit late, but i had telogen effluvium from october to december. it fell out really bad then stopped completely until about a week ago when it started shedding really badly again. my trigger for it the first time was anorexia, ive been recovered for a while now, i have no clue why my hair is starting to shed again. there is no trigger i can think of, ive been eating good and taking vitamins. i just have no clue why it started again :/
I am sorry you are going through it again😔 I have a couple clients who went through the same thing. I had them start taking a probiotic and it stopped & so far they have not had any more TE. This tells me that their gut needed more good bacteria.
Please try it for a month and let me know if this helps you too. ❤️
Currently suffering from te n lost my 70% of hair n it became so thin... doctor said it's due to pcos n prescribed finast hope it will work
What about hair breakage and hair fall from the root as a direct cause of GX shampoo? Is the damage caused permanent or will even the hair that’s come out with the white bulb on the end grow back eventually even though it’s as a direct result of the chemicals in the shampoo?
You should be Ok. Your hair should start to grow back, but just be aware that your hair follicles are inflamed now so make sure you are taking a hair, skin & nail vitamin and being really good at eating anti-inflammatory foods.
Smoking is also not good either😉
Thank you 🙏 I stopped using it weeks ago so I hope it will stop shedding g and breaking and regrow. Should I see a dermatologist or would that be futile? Which hair vitamins would you recommend! I’m taking biotin orally and using biotin shampoo and conditioner. Not so concerned by the breaking but would the chemicals on the actual scalp making those hairs that came out with the white bulb on the end make the loss of THOSE hairs permanent and unable to grow back?
@@dannykirsch Biotin is a great start. I am still researching vitamins but a good one from whole foods or nutrition store where there is no additional fillers or dyes.
Everything that I have been taught is that Biotin by itself isn't as good as a Total Hair, skin & nail vitamin.
The follicles should still be fine. Did you use the shampoo for a really long time?
TabithaFHair thank you Tabitha. No I literally used it for no more than a couple of weeks. Approximately half the tube.
@@dannykirsch Oh good. I dont think a Dermatologist would really do anything for you. If you have a Trichologist in the area they could look at your scalp with a microscope to see if the follicles are still inflamed but I think you are doing everything right.😉
Let me know when it all comes back😊
hello. does pcos cause handfuls of hairloss?
Thank you for the information! I started noticing heavy shedding in June, which continued into September. I’m shedding less now, but my density hasn’t returned. I’m having trouble identifying my exact trigger. Any tips?
Some possibilities...
I began a low-androgen triphasic birth control pill in March (discontinued in July due to possible trigger for the hair loss). I also had a fainting/vomiting episode in February when doing a HIT workout. In March, I had a muscle strain that I went to PT for. At this time, i started to eat more calories and exercising regularly. I also had a few UTIs during this time, which I took antibiotics for.
Hi Hannah! Sorry you have had so many things going on, but it sounds like it was probably the hormones from the birth control. This just happened to me this year when I had an IUD put in. We are just hormone sensitive.
Which is a good thing to keep in mind for the future.
It takes a couple of months for those hairs to kick back into the growth phase and start seeing hair.
Remember hair grows very slow. Get on a good hair, skin & nail vitamin & hair growing shampoo. Get your protein intake in as well and your vitamin D.
I do have more information that I am always posting on my IG @tabithahairstylist
Or my Facebook TabithaFhair.
Let me know when you see all those baby hairs come back in😉
TabithaFHair thank you for your advice and encouragement!
Misguided Lights Wow! Thank you for sharing your experience. I noticed hair loss in those areas too! I am also shedding significantly less. When I wash my hair (every 2-4 days) I shed 100-200 hairs I would say (depending on the time since my last wash). My baby hairs along my crown are growing but I’m waiting to return to my full density. I am on a multivitamin and 5000 mg of biotin. That’s awesome that iron pills support your hair health and general well-being around your cycle. May I ask if your cycles are regular? I battle with extreme irregularity. I can bleed every two weeks, though I’m not sure if I am actually ovulating or if this is just uterine lining shedding. Being a woman is complicated!
Misguided Lights I also heard that it will take around 2 years to return to full density. All we can do is focus on nutrition and scalp health to destress and provide a good foundation for regrowth, I suppose. Please let me know how the onion and garlic hair mask works for you. Coconut oil makes my already oily scalp too greasy. I have also lost around 30-40% of my hair. It’s pretty wild how similar our stories are. Which pill were you on? I was on tri-lo-sprintec.
Misguided Lights WHAT?! Okay. This makes me feel a lot less crazy. My doctors said I must be extra sensitive to hormones because it’s a very low androgenic. I will have to try this hair mask. In the meantime, I’ll just have to wait patiently and take care of my body. Let me know how your hair is doing a couple months from now! I’ll do the same 😊
I got on a bad diet and now I m shedding so much hair I'm 20 it s been 7 months no regrowth no less shading
I'm going bald
I m so hopless
I Don t think it s ever ganja be the same
Love your channel and think this is needed. FYI, what hair vitamins/brands do you recommend? Overall, TE is traumatic. So it's hard to keep your stress down when hair is coming out. I am told it will come back.Is this true? I am hoping it will come back even better b/c I have improved my diet so much. I did have a hormone specialist MESS with mine about 3 months prior to. Ladies beware of Bio Identical hormones. And it actually made my Thyroid reduce. And I paid for this help! Off all meds and redoing bloodwork.
I am so glad that you are doing better and it is super hard to keep your stress down.
Yes! The hair does come back. So after the hair falls out in the Telogen phase a new hair is automatically being grown underneath it.
I know it is hard but try to think about ALL the new hair coming back than the hair that is in your hands.
It seems to help alot of my clients from stressing to much. Just make sure you are doing everything to keep the scalp healthy inside & out.
In my salon we use XTC products. But if you can't find them at a local salon make sure you get a good quality hair skin & nail vitamin from a natural food store.
Good luck😉
TabithaFHair Thank you so much!! Loved your shampoo tips. Will rinse super well and love your conditioner tips too. Please please keep up this channel its so refreshing!! Any shampoos you like? TBH I think shampoos are all marketing hogwash. Like unfortunately I love Oribe $$$. Just makes my hair nice but I don’t think for one minute its a miracle. FYI, after some reading I did an apple cider rinse this week for the first time. My scalp itch is like gone! I am hooked! 💖💖
You are so sweet. I am very new to this you tube world so thank you.
I have heard wonderful things about Oribe. I have seen great things with Zenegen too. I would stick with a shampoo for your scalp. No matter what the brand.
And YASS! The apple cider is amazing. Keep it up. Your hair will feel new within a few months.
Do you have a Trichologist in your area? They could use a microscope to see down in the hair follicle to see if you have build up & what is going on with your itchiness. Do you have food alergys or get itchy after haircolor?
Hi Tabitha, so it’s been a while. Update is, hair stopped
TabithaFHair Oops! Hit send. Okay back to update, hair fall stopped after 4 months, classic TE. I have new hairs. They are everywhere. But hard to style. Hair still feels thin. It will take years before I am back. Do I know the cause? Can’t say 💯. But I would love to tell you more, as their were a few things going on at the time, only can I email or DM? 💖🙌
I had gastric sleeve done Feb 1, 2020 and I also have a thyroid issue since I was 37. Three months after the surgery my hair started to fall out in handfuls. I am a licensed hairdresser and I always knew to tell my clients about stress, thyroid, rapid weight loss, etc. My concern is how long is this going to last. I had my hair cut up to my shoulders to help but my entire disposition has lowered my self esteem. I was wondering if I could dye my hair. I also am on vitamins, biotin, collegan and fish oil. I know my nutrition was poor in the first 2 months after surgery but now I am really feeling great but my hair, UGH. I started to put a satin cap over my hair to sleep and that has helpled. My hair is fine and curly too so that is a stress to my hair.
Hi Allie,
I had a client go through this same experience. It took a little over 6 months for the shedding to slow. 😢
It was so hard for her. She has naturally curly hair so we kept it short.
It all came back & she is still rocking a short curly pixie.
Make sure you are getting enough protein & your body is absorbing all nutrients from your foods you are eating.
Let me know when you go back to normal shedding. (how long it took)
I wish you the best. 😍

I would love to send some to you! You can email me at TabithaFhair@gmail.com
Hi, just found your channel, it's full of really helpful and sensible advice ☺️. I wanted to ask why doesn't TE hair all fall out at the same time? Thank you!
Hi.
Not all hair gets pushed into the telogen phase. Thank the Universe 😉
Even when you do have TE, You are only losing 25-50% of your hair.
Even though it seems like you will lose it all. 😔
Hello Ma'am, I'm 17 and going to turn 18 very soon. It's my last year of high school and the pressure is immense. I wanted to change my stream but I couldn't and studies are putting so much pressure on me. At one point during late March and early April the stress was so much and I used to get anxiety attacks frequently that my psychiatrist had to put me on anti stress and anxiety medicines plus I have numerous mental breakdowns every month especially a week before my periods. And it puts so much stress on my body.I also had a high viral fever in mid October. Now I have a very thin hair and I have dandruff too. Plus my hair now are lesser at the top partitions till the back of the crown, also on the sides and the on the hairline as well. I'm so self conscious and slowly losing all of my confidence .I'm so sad :(((( I wanna know if my hair will be back or not s d how many months will it take? My hairfall was severe in November and its December ending now as well.
Oh, it hurts me to hear you go through all this. I hope you are finding ways to get out of your funk.
Since you are having scalp issues like dandruff you need to make sure you are eating super healthy & cutting out sugars & anything that might cause you inflammation.
If you can find a salon near you that sells XTC scalp prep. It will help your dandruff. I would also get on a hair, skin & nail vitamin & a probiotic for the skin.
Most importantly... reduce your stress. (Easy,right?)🙄
Find something that helps. Yoga, meditation, even CBD oil has helped many clients of mine.
Make sure that you discuss the CBD with your Dr. First if you are taking other meds.
Let me know what helps you!! I wish you the best❤
How’s your hair?
@@prometheus6853 they’re not the best, still a lil thin but much much better than what i was going through then :) im 20 now, i took hair supplements and eat ashwagandha and biotin tabs along with regular bhringaraj and castor oil massage. Hair quality has improved immensely
@@harshi965 how long were you shedding for? I’m going through the same RIGJT now. So much stress from everything.

i am 28 years old 8 months ago i had left sub mandibular surgery i loosed my wight and meantime my GF she and i broke up after those incidents i lost to much hairs on my scalp now its been a 8 months now hair fall has completely stopped so do you think i am experiencing telogen effluvium or its Androgenetic alopecia thank you
Yes, since the Hair fall out has stopped It sounds like it was TE from your surgery & Stress. Keep eating good and start taking a Hair, Skin & Nail vitamin.
You will start seeing those new hairs coming back soon. Just be patient 😉
Hey, my hair has always been healthy but this year around July I started noticing that my hair is falling a lot and I see my scalp a lot more on crown area. My hair became so thin in that area. My hair do not shed a lot anymore. Even when I run my fingers through my hair, I barely get a hair out. But my scalp still has thin hair and I can see my scalp a lot. I am really worried about my hair. It’s already October, I don’t even know if any new hair is coming out or not. But can you tell me what will happen and about how much time it will take to make my scalp/hair healthy like before ? Will it ever go back to the way it was ?
Hi there,
It is so hard to say without looking at your scalp but I would ask you if anything has changed as far as hormone shifts or Thyroid?
I would go see your doctor and check to see if these are not balanced. I would also check your vitamin D & Iron levels. And if you are getting too much vitamin A.
Get on a hair growing shampoo in the meantime.
I really hope this resolves for you😉
Can you suggest me some good hair, nails biotin or vitamins ? Also, which shampoo do you suggest ?
@@kharbanda1988 if you can get XTC products at a local salon that is the best. They offer a nutrient complex & shampoo.
If you do not have a distributor nearby than go with a reputable company that you trust to find a supplement. Something pure with no fillers😉
@@kharbanda1988 hey upasana does new growth seen ?
Can TE cause a change in hair texture? My hair has been really dry even after use mask and hair oils when i used to have much manageable softer hair, and i dont use any heat on my hair.
HI!
Usually the changes in the texture of the hair happens inside the body and scalp.
Usually (not always)brittle, coarse hair is the sign of thyroid. Have you had your hormones & thyroid checked?
Also, your scalp could be dehydrated. Something is messing with the oil production & the hair follicle.Do you use rogaine or have any scalp conditions? These can dehydrate the scalp & change your texture.
I would start taking a hair skin & nail vitamin & collegen to add the vitamins needed for your hair and scalp. Use a non-comedogenic conditioner on your scalp as well.😊
Doctors won't do any further thyroid testing if basic test comes back normal, even though I have more symptoms than hair loss. Had first bout of te after really bad flu last March. Ferritin levels are always low when I'm tested. Hair loss stopped in about August but started again a couple of months ago, now I am starting to have bald spots that I can barely cover. Going through menopause means there is a hormonal component too. I'm taking iron and b12 and d vitamins and collagen. It's very distressing, feeling so bad about myself...
I am so sorry Pauline. It can be so stressful.
How is your gut health after your flu? Were you on Antibiotics as well during that time?
Make sure your protein intake is good & stress is down😉
@@tabithafhair no, I didn't take antibiotics, I am on a probiotic now anyway and I get plenty of protein. Stress is a hard one, I've never dealt well with stress... thanks for your reply.
This can happen to guys too right? i started losing hair more in the shower and even when i brush it. i can run my hands through my hair or even pull it and hair strands will fall. This started around a year ago when i started dental school. It is so stressful and hard and there have been lots of sleepless nights and im sure this is the cause of my hair loss. its a stressful cycle. My hairline isnt receding, its generalized hairloss and seems to have affected my whole scalp. i think i lost about 50% or more now :(
What can i do?
This happens to men too.
It's easy for me to say stop the stress..right?
Make sure you are eating well when you are stressed. I know your body craves carbs when you are stressed but really try to eat healthy during these times.
Get on a good hair, skin and nail vitamin. Get one from a whole foods or reputable company. Start using a hair growing shampoo. I recommend XTC hair products but you can only find them in salons. They do have a salon finder on their website.
Make sure your vitamin D and Ferritin levels are where they need to be as well.😉
Can prp is useful in chronic tellogen effluvium and 8am having chronic tellogen effluvium from 5 years is it reverses and my hair will thick again
For some people prp does help with TE. You would have to have a consultation with your provider. ❤️
Does shedding stop slowly or suddenly??? Its has been 4.5 months now shedding slow down but does not stop
Usually it slows down gradually. Remember that Normal hair shedding is still 50-100hairs per day. Make sure you are on a good hair, skin & nail vitamin to slow down the excess shedding. 😉
Talk to your Dr. If you are on other meds before adding vitamins.
@@tabithafhair has ur hair shedding stop completely?
Not completely. Because we still loose on average 50-100hairs per day.
You will always have some shedding.
@@tabithafhair i see that less hair would comes out now but it does not stop...its has been 5 months now...is it stop ever??? M so tensed
@@makeupshots6517 how’s your hair now?
I think I'm having the telogen effluvium right now. This time in the quarantine, I almost exercise everyday (some of those exercises are new to me and at first I'm having a hard time doing it until I got the hang of it). I also dont have a good diet plan (less calories and I almost dont eat a day) and after 3-4 months of doing it, my hair is falling like crazy but it has those kind of white bulbs on the end pf each hair that falls off. I'm currently having a balance diet (taking vitamins and healthy foods). Hopefully I can recover.
It sounds like you are on the right track. Drastic Change in Diet & exercise will cause it.
Hey I have the same! Also I have long hair so it falls like crazy! How are you now and how long it lasted?
@@tabithafhair Hi! Mine started from early June this year and it's my 7th month! I feel it's less than previous months but still it's a lot! I lost a lot of weight by doing exercise, and not taking enough proteins! Will I ever recover?
@@poushalibhattacharyay5810 Start taking a hair, skin and nail vitamin & maybe even start a skin probiotic. Check your iron & vitamin D levels and eat foods to balance your hormones. We have to stop the shedding. 😉
@@tabithafhair Thank you so much :) Is it possible to grow all the hairs back after the shedding stops?
What if it’s been 3 years and the new hairs keep falling out? I am on vitamins, protein, mega B’s. It is caused by stressful situation,and even though the stress is gone now my hair cycle has been changed. I also feel a tingling before it happens again. I have shaved my head and no longer even feel like being out anywhere. I have been using Nioxin for years. I am at a loss.😪😪😪😪😪😪😪😪😪
Lisa, I am so sorry that you are going through this. The vitamins you are taking are great but make sure you are getting protein & iron in your diet too. I would even start taking a marine collagen every day too. This will really give your skin and scalp a boost in protein & make you look you younger 👍. I have my clients use Vital Proteins Marine Collagen. Every single client has noticed a difference in their skin & scalp.
I would maybe try Bosley for your hair care instead of Nioxin too. Make sure you get it directly from Bosley & not a 3rd party as there is diversion on this product. You want the real deal.
I hope this helps you. If you have any other questions, let me know😉
How is you hair now lisa
Hi! Im 16 years old and I got diagnosed with TE. Its been going on for 4 months already. Will my hair thickness grow back?
Hi Miky,
Make sure you find out what you trigger was. Stress? Hormones? Meds?
And address the cause.
Your hair should grow back like it was before.
You have youth on your side so eat well & stay positive. 💕
TabithaFHair Thank you for your reply! I really appreciate it. I believe it was stress and my diet:(
@@mikytan2259 hows ur hair now
Can a new hair vitamin cause hair loss? I was just thinking about a week ago how thick and nice my hair was looking. Then all of a sudden over this week I have clumps of hair coming out. About double than I normally do. I started a new hair vitamin about a month ago. Just wondering if that could be a factor.
The only thing that might cause this is if you have too much Vitamin A.
Anything that happened about 3 months ago that might have triggered something?
TabithaFHair About 5 months ago I had two sudden deaths in my family. I didn’t even consider that being a factor. It caused a lot of stress and sadness for these past few months.
I am so sorry for your losses. I cant even imagine your strength.
This is your factor.
Stress does alot to your body. Your body is super smart. During stress your body is using all of its energy to protect your vital organs. Our hair is not a vital organ😔
When our body is under stress, our gut has a hard time absorbing vitamin B. This is essential for hair growth.
Keep taking your hair vitamin. Get some vital protein marine Collagen and take that every day as well. Start eating foods high in vitamin B. Try meditation or yoga to keep that stress down( easy for me to say, right?) You can do it!
The shedding should start to slow down 3 months after it started.
Remember your hair is growing new hair already so you will have alot of baby hairs coming in.
If you have anything else you want to talk about you can email me at Tabithafhair@gmail.com
TabithaFHair thank you. I appreciate it.
I would like the recipe for the topical vitamin recipe if you can provide it through here.
Hello can you please please tell me how to know when you have T.E?
You Naturally lose 50-100 hairs per day. If you feel like you are losing more than that or are seeing Alot of hair in your brush or when you run your fingers through your hair & see many hairs come out at once you probably you have TE.
TE is a noticeable change in hairs coming out.
I just ended my second bought with TE. This time it lasted 7 mos. This time was much worse. It has begun to regrow, very slowly, but 2 small areas are still showing very thin/bald areas. I am hoping that changes in the next few months. This is a painful condition to endure.
It is soooo frustrating isnt it?
Do you have a trichologist near you that could look at the patches under a microscope?
Because if there are active follicles you could try a topical vitamin or even a hand held laser.
I have seen great results with both.
Keep taking a good hair, skin and nail vitamin & add in some Marine Collagen. To get those hairs to produce and grow a little faster so you can see them sooner.
Good luck girl.
Let me know what works for you!

Hi, Berlin
I am sorry you are feeling worried. I would try to find a Trichologist or a Hair Loss Practitioner in your area that can look at your hair follicles with a microscope & go over what is happening inside your body.
You can start by getting on a good hair, skin & nail vitamin.

I m from Pakistan 🇵🇰
I used onion 🌰 that is definitely a vegetable
U may listen that onion is very good for hair regrow
So i used it by frying it in mustard oil
I used that oil daily in 3 weeks
After a month my hairs started shedding magically
I m really so much worried
Anyhow i m using minoxidil and biotine tablets
For hairs
Hi,
I have read a little about topical onion and how it is beneficial but do not have any other material on it.
Sometimes when those hair follicles are getting cleaned out from build up, you can have a little more shedding to start before it helps. Cell turn over is every other day.. so I would only do it every other day and see if your shedding slows down. I hope it helps😊
Tabitha Fredrichs alright
Thanks 🙏🏼
Thanks for this video 😊
How many months light shedding phase last??
About 3-6 months for TE.

@@shilpimehra5099 how’s your hair?
Hello, this past month I have used a shampoo from the drugstore that caused my hair to start shedding more than normal, not in clumps, but a lot of strands coming out in the shower and easily when I brushed it. I researched the shampoo and there are hundreds of reviews of people having the same issue. I don’t know if this would be classified as TE or just a period of shedding due to the shampoo. but I recently stopped using it about two weeks ago and so I’m hoping my hair will stop shedding soon. I got the vitafusion gummies for hair skin and nails and I’m also doing a mask once a week. Any thoughts?
Hi there,
I do not think this is TE if you started noticing right after you started the shampoo. Alot of drugstore shampoos are not what they say, that is why you always want to purchase from a salon or Ulta.
This happened to one of my clients who bought shampoo from TJ Max. It was full of bacteria & caused an inflammation on the scalp or it was something that your body was allergic to.
Do you have sores or bumps on your scalp? Do they itch?
If not, I would get a scalp shampoo with tea tree oil in it & use that for awhile to help eliminate any bacteria. If you have bumps or sores you might need something stronger like a cortisone cream or a shampoo with ketoconazole in it.
Keep consistent with the vitamins. Your doing it right😉
TabithaFHair I do not have any rash or anything on my scalp, just some dandruff. The shampoo did a good job of making my hair soft and shiny, but for some reason there is something in it that is making people’s hair fall out. Do you know how long this shedding will last? It’s been almost 3 weeks and I’m still losing hair in the shower. Not so much during the day when it’s dry.
@@marissalynn123 I would start using a hair growing shampoo like Nioxin or Zenagen & you will see alot less shedding. Some people have reported extra shedding for 3 - 6 weeks when this happens. It should slow down soon.
Let me know when it slows down for you🙂
Illness due to severe infection and antibiotics
Can bad teeth cause hair loss ??
Hi!
Any inflammation or infection in the body can effect the hair. I would have your dr. Or trichologist make sure all your bloodwork looks good.
Thank u so much ,

Vitamin D deficiency can be the reason of hair loss?
In some cases, yes! Make sure when you are at the Dr. have them run your Vit.D, Ferritin, and vit. A.
@@tabithafhair my vitamin D was on 14 now is on 29 but my hair is not growing. And I see finer hair is the a sign of telegen effluvium?
Vit D can definitely cause increased hair shedding. My dr stated this. My level was at a 13. I shed a lot or hair. I was placed on prescription Vit D 50,000IU weekly for 4 months then switched over to OTC vit D3. It will take time because hair is not vital for life, so when you take any supplement or vitamins it will go to where it’s needed inside your body first, your hair will always be the last to get the nutrients. Also vitamin D functions more like a hormone for your body. If you are experiencing shedding as a result of a vitamin deficiency, you’ve had it for a while and you’re just now seeing the result of this if you’re hair is now coming out. Again, because you hair is the last thing to experience the effects as well as the nutrient uptake.

Hello! Do you know how long it takes for a new strand of hair to sprout out of the follicle after the hair has fallen out?
Usually it takes about 2-3 weeks but it depends on genetics & what it happening inside the body. It could take longer. Up to 3 months before you see new hair.
TabithaFHair thank you
@@tabithafhair Does the new hair grows immediately after the long hair falls out?
