Send Danise a Text Message.

We unpack the scary moment of seeing hair in the shower and lay out a simple baseline for what’s normal shedding versus true hair loss. Clear red flags, common triggers, and calm next steps help you feel prepared and confident.

• 50–100 hairs a day as a healthy baseline
• no quick visual test, stress can worsen shedding
• widening part, clumps, or bald spots as red flags
• postpartum, illness, and major stress as common triggers
• early checks with a professional support better outcomes
• simple scalp care and tracking build confidence
