Hair Fixing

Your hair is a nutritional barometer. When the body is short of key nutrients, it diverts resources away from “non-essential” functions like hair growth first. Understanding which deficiencies matter — and which don’t — can save you a fortune on useless supplements.

Every strand of hair goes through a three-stage lifecycle: anagen (active growth, lasting 2–7 years), catagen (transition, 2–3 weeks), and telogen (resting phase, 3 months). At the end of telogen, the hair sheds naturally and a new strand begins.

The average scalp has around 100,000 hair follicles. Losing 50–100 hairs a day is completely normal. The problem starts when the shedding rate dramatically outpaces new growth — or when follicles permanently shrink and stop producing hair altogether.
