That happens to most everybody. If its a LOT of hair (like more than 10-20 strands when you wash it) then you might want to consider seeing a doctor or something to see what might be causing it. Could be premature hair loss but thats unlikely. Maybe your hairs just getting a little dry due to changing seasons. Hairs been known to be brittle and break when the cold weather starts to set in because artificial heat (ie from car heaters and whatnot) makes your hair dry.

Every hair on your body is programed to grow a certain number of inches. When the hair has grown to its predetermined length the follicle dries up and the hair falls out.

This is a process that is going on every day, and as the hair falls out it starts to grow again, so that the hairs are constantly being replenished. Have you noticed that you have little baby hairs always growing in at the top of you head at the scalp?

Also, women have fluctuating hormones, pregnancy and nursing can really do a number on your hair as well as the onset of puberty and menopause. My hair started to get curly when I hit puberty! When I was pregnant my hair was thick and gorgeous and then fell out when I stopped nursing her!

You can use products like Nioxin that help, but for the most part you just have to deal with it.

If you are losing tons of hair are starting to really worry go talk to you doctor, Iron deficiency and thyroid problems can cause hair loss!

When you shower/bath in warm water ... the warm water opens all pores in your body ... hair follicles included. After shampooing your hair, apply conditioner and rinse the conditioner out with cool water. I usually turn the shower water on cool ... but it's only advised if you can endure the rapid temperature change. The coolness of the water will close the hair follicles back up again, and thus, will result in a significant reduction of hair loss. Hope this helps you ... :)
