Types of Baldness

In humans, two types of baldness occurs:

Frontal Baldness


In this kind of Baldness, hair fall from the front of the head (receding line).

In this kind of Baldness, a pattern in hair loss is clearly observed. Pattern Baldness can be classified into following two categories.

Causes of Baldness

Baldness can occur for various reasons. But primely it can be result of Hair Fall, Hair Loss and Thinning Hair. 

Hair Fall, Hair Loss and Thinning Hair are different? Yes they are. Lets understand in detail. 

What is Hair Fall? 

Hair fall, is the phase where hair detaches from head or body and falls. It is natural and in general 50 to 100 hair falls each day. (Hair fall is different than hair loss and don't confuse). It occurs naturally because of the life cycle of the hair. 

Hair Life Cycle
Life Cycle of Hair

Life cycle of Hair

 A hair has four life cycle. 

1. Anagen Phase

In this phase, the hair grows. (1 cm per month). It grows from the papilla and remains for three to five years. The time period of staying in this stage is dependent upon genetics of human body. 

2. Catagen Phase

This is the transitional phase for hairs. The hair detaches from pappila and rests for 10 to 15 days. 

3. Telogen Phase

In this phase, a new hair appear while the old hair (which was detached from pappila in previous phase) is still resting. 

4. Exogen Phase

In this phase, the new hair keep on growing while the old hair sheds and falls. Observation says, 10 to 15% hairs sheds each day. 

So if you notice, hair fall each day(50-100 hairs) then no need to worry, this absolutely normal irrespective of the baldness condition. 

Note: Hair fall is also known as "Normal Hair Loss" because it is normal in nature. 

What to do for hair falls?

Hair fall is a natural process where after completing complete life cycle of hair, hair detaches from the scalp or body and sheds. We are not required to worry if the hair fall is less than 100 hairs or 150 hairs per day. (10 to 15 percent of total hair). However we can reduce down the hair fall by various ways. 

How to stop Hair Fall?


Hair fall problem is something that is associated with human emotions. Excessive hair fall results in baldness and baldness is something noticed by others first. There are few effective ways through which we can stop hair fall. 

To stop hair fall, first we need to look at the symptoms, then we need to find out the reason. Once we are aware of the reason behind it, then we can easily control the hair fall and also we can apply a proper solution. 

Hair Fall Symptoms

If excess hair fall is occurring then it is not hair fall, it is hair loss. The easiest way to notice, after bath, look at the floor, are there excess hairs on the floor. And also check once you comb your hairs, look at the comb, how many shedded hairs are in the comb? If the total number of hairs appears less than 100 or ten to fifteen percent of hair then no need to worry. Other wise it means, you have severe hair loss.

Hair Fall Reasons

To understand hair fall reasons we must have to keep in mind the root reason behind hair fall.

Why does hair fall?

Hair has its own life cycle. Once the life cycle is completed then the hair is bound to fall. It is natural in nature. Study says 10 to 15% hair fall naturally each day. But if the number is beyond this, then there might be other factors causing the excess hair fall.

Excessive hair fall in a human can occur because of so many reasons. Such as exposure to pollutions. Acid rains (the rain when occurs in heavily polluted regions, the rain drop turns into acid which can damage skin, hair and visibility). Over consumption of alcohol can also cause severe hair fall.

Main Reason for hair fall

The main reason for hair fall is the age. With age, the hair fall increases. How ever sudden hair fall can be result of stress, exposure to acid rain and pollution or bad food diet.

Hair Fall Control

Once reason is identified, it hair fall can be easily controlled. If some one frequent traveller in heavy traffic then wearing cap can protect hair from exposure to pollution. If excess alcohol is the root reason then reducing down consumption can also help control severe hair fall.  Bad food diet plays prime role in excess hair fall so changing food habit can control it.

Hair Fall Solutions:

If nothing helps to overcome such excess fall, then it is time to meet some doctor who specialises in hair. There are plenty clinics around the city and visiting can solve the issue. There are plenty of cream, oil are available in the market in the name of solutions to severe hair fall but in reality they appear helpless element.

What is Hair Loss?

There is difference between hair fall and hair loss. As mentioned above, hair has its own life cycle and once the life cycle completes then the hair sheds. The amount of hair sheds is 10% to 15% (50 to 100 hairs each day). But if the hair fall amount crosses this limit, then we say hair loss. Hair loss causes early baldness in human. Hairloss can occur for various reason. It is a disease. Disease can be cured with proper diagnosis. First we focus on symptoms, if symptoms confirm hair loss, then we need to identify the reason behind the severe hair loss, once severe hair loss is identified, then proper remedy can be applied. 

What is the reason for hair loss?

Hair loss can occur because of so many reasons. Such as bad food diet, excess consumption of alcohol, stress, work pressure, smoking and poor caring of hairs. The silly reason that can also cause hair loss is usage of soap bar on head. Soap bars are meant for body and the chemicals present in soap bar can also damage hairs. There is another reason for hair loss is usage of cheap shampoo. Cheap shampoo add chemicals so that it would form sufficient foam on the head but in return it damages hair severely. Avoid such cheap shampoo.

What to do for hair loss?

Identify the reason for hair loss and take immediate action for it. If you are going through severe work pressure, then either try to change job or go through some medication program. Consult psychiatrist. Psychiatrist can suggest stress reducer medicines. If you travel in heavy traffic then wear cap. Pollution also causes excess hair loss. If you are using cheap shampoo then avoid it immediate. Visit hair doctor (dermatologist) and ask him/her to recommend a shampoo. If you have bad food diet, then change your food diet. Ask a nutritionist and follow healthy food time table. (The purpose here is to change habit and notice if it helps.)

Hair Loss Symptoms

In so many cases people scare for silly reason such as they spotted hairs in the sink of bathroom or they spotted hair on bed. Hair fall is natural in its nature. Every human goes through hair fall daily. Study says 10 to 15 % hair fall is natural and can not be avoided. So even before worrying for baldness, you must note the symptoms of the hair fall. If you notice hair fall more than the natural limit then it is matter of consideration. Observe how many hair falls daily. If it is more than 100 per day then it is clear symptom of severe hair loss. And also if you spot pattern baldness then its clear symptom of Hair loss.
