I'm female and losing my hair?

I'm 27 years old, white, female. My hair is past shoulder-length, brown and naturally curly. I use Alberto mousse in it when I wear it curly. I use Frizz-Ease hair serum in it when I straighten it with a ceramic straightener.

It's been falling out in hand-fulls when I shower. I'm constantly losing hair when it's dry. I'm afraid that I'm going bald. I know women don't go bald by my hair is in really bad shape. It's getting really thin.

I don't style/shampoo every day. I've been going as long as possible between straightenings. Hair products never used to make my hair fall out so much. I've been using them for 15 years.

Am I lacking vitamins in my diet or something? What foods are good to eat to make your hair stronger/healthier? Should I cut my hair short? :( How do I deal?

Sometimes it could actually be the weather or the products you use in your hair. Not to scare you but my aunt was having that problem and it was very bad so she went to the doctor. He did a thyroid test on her and that was the problem her thyroid was producing to much of a hormone so now she is on medication to control the thyroid and she hasn't had that problem with her hair since.

You need to see a doctor ASAP.

I'm female and losing my hair?

I would start with going to the doctor and having a physical including blood work. That will tell you if there are any deficiencies in you hormones, vitiamins or minerals. If that all looks good go and see a dermatologist. They can help you with thinning hair in many cases. I am a nurse and work for a derm doc. She frequently tells patients that if it isn't hormonal or a lack of vitiamins that they should use MENS Rogaine. The men's version is stronger than the womens and we have patients see a better improvement with it! Good Luck!

If you are using hair care products to straighten natural curls or curl naturally straight hair you are damaging the follicles. Some people may do this for 25 or 30 years before there are any noticeable changes or loss of hair while others may see a change in just 1 year. To curb any possibility of infections you should consult a physician but seriously LAY OFF THE FANCY HAIR PRODUCTS!!! Use a very mild shampoo like Johnson's baby shampoo for a while and your scalp will heal. You might take vitamins (especially E) and this will help strengthen your damaged follicles.You might try some oil treatments too. Good luck I hope you will be alright.
