Our grandfathers aren't the only ones battling thinning hair. One
out of four men have noticeably thin-looking hair. That's some 32.5
million men. You're definitely not alone. And, addressing this problem
can be challenging. In fact, choosing the right solution can mean
the difference between helplessness and hope.

The first thing to do is to get the facts about thinning hair. If you
have any health-related concerns contact your physician as soon as possible.
We've provided information to help shed light on your hair woes and some
suggestions on ways to put you on the path to achieving stronger, thicker,
healthier-looking hair.
THE LIFE CYCLE OF YOUR HAIR
First, you should understand that the maturation of a hair happens in
three cycles.
The Anagen Cycle, or that phase in which the hair is
actually growing;
The Catagen Cycle, or the intermediate phase of hair
growth when the lower two-thirds of the hair follicle is destroyed
And the Telogen Cycle, or that phase when hair growth
is resting.
At any given time, about 85 to 90 percent of your scalp hair is in the
anagen or growing phase. Less than 1 percent is in the catagen phase.
And, the remaining 13 percent of the scalp hair is in the telogen or resting
phase. Certain factors can rush the growing hair into the telogen phase
prematurely, resulting in noticeably thin-looking hair and low hair density.
Following the telogen phase, it takes about 3 weeks for the follicle to
produce a new anagen hair.
NORMAL v. EXCESSIVE HAIR SHEDDING
Some loss or shedding of hair every day is normal. The average person
has 150,000 to 200,000 hairs on their scalp. Blondes generally have the
most number of hairs, followed by brunettes and then redheads. Conventional
wisdom has indicated that the loss of 100 to 125 hairs a day is normal.
However, recent research has shown that when cleansing daily, a loss of
more than 50 hairs per day may be excessive for someone who has thin-looking
hair.
While the subject of the causes for thinning hair is complex and multi-faceted,
the effects are simple - thin-looking hair can mean you feel less confident
and sometimes less attractive. But the world-renowned team of Nioxin researchers
has identified the top six reasons why your hair might be thinning.
SIX CAUSES OF THINNING HAIR
Genetic Predisposition that comes from a family history of thinning
hair.
Stress and Trauma that can cause constriction of blood supply and
poor vitamin assimilation
Nutrition and diet that can include a high consumption of animal fat,
high protein and fad diets
Health problems such as Hyperthyroid or Hypothyroid conditions are
the only documented medical conditions that thinning hair can be attributed
Medications ranging in nature from various acne treatments to chemotherapy
External environmental toxins and pollutants, such as chlorine, metals,
minerals and water pollution.
