It's due to bacteria in the scalp and dry scalp for sure, does anyone know anything that'll help?Hair loss at teenage?
I'm losing a lot of hair too and I'm a teen. I thought i was going bald or something but my mom told me its normal. It depends if you have enough vitamin B's or maybe it's stress, but mainly its normal. The more you think about it, the more hair you'll lose. Or, you can try changing your shampoo. That helps too. =]Hair loss at teenage?

Vitamins for Hair Loss

Modern hairloss treatment
http://geebal.blogspot.com/2007/10/hair-鈥?/a>
Hair loss is caused by many reasons such as malnutrition, illness, tension and other health problems.It is normal to shed some hair each day as part of a cycle of growing new hairs and loosing some. Badly damaged hair breaks at the scalp. Check out http://usefulinfo-hairloss.blogspot.com/ for more info.
Vitamins are essential for proper hair growth. For healthy sebum in the scalp we require vitamin A. Graying and loss of hair is arrested with the intake of Vitamin B6 and B12. Keratin is produced by Biotin and hair follicles are kept healthy by inositol. Panthothenic acid and Para-amino benzoic acids are also beneficial. These vitamins are present in fruits such as lemon, pineapple and strawberry and in vegetables such as potato.

Teenage girl hair loss?
so ive been losing a LOT of hair latley, mostly in the shower. my hair gets really sweaty and greasy so i have to wash it every day but i try to lower it to every other day and im really scared. ive been REALLY stressed out these last couple of weeks and i even switched back from herbal essences dangerously straight stuff back to head and shoulders and dove therapy conditioner. im going to the doctor sometime this week for it but i was wondering if someone could help me?
im not on birth control, i dont use acne medication. i barley style my hair anymore and when i do i only straighten my bangs and use hairgel to scrunch my hair. idk what to do anymore :( thanksTeenage girl hair loss?
as we know hair loss can be caused by many different reasons! There are many causes of loss of hair such as stress, poor nutrition ,medications, thyroid dysfunctions, illness, fungal infections, hormonal problems, to mention a few.
year ago I suffered very much from dandruff and hair loss too and I started trying everything you can imagine to stop my hair loss.
the things that really worked for me was:
1) Vitamin A - an anti-oxidant which promotes healthy production of sebum in the scalp;
2) Vitamin E stimulates circulation. Good blood circulation in the scalp is important in keeping hair follicles productive. The 'B' vitamins contribute to melanin, which gives hair its healthy color and also stimulates blood circulation;
3) massage is also beneficial. Massage stimulates circulation. As already noted, good circulation in the scalp keeps hair follicles active. Experts suggest a few minutes of daily head massage by hand. Circulation through massage may be improved by using a few drops of lavender or bay essential oil in an almond or sesame oil base with massage;
4) Try rubbing your scalp with garlic juice, Onion Juice or Ginger Juice(you can either of one out of three, Do not mix any of two or three);
5) also I used herbal treatment - Provillus (do not use Rogaine - it can cause unwanted hair growth elsewhere on the body)
It is a good products that helps prevent hair loss and contains Biotin and the clinically tested ingredients approved by the FDA to help re-grow your hair! I think it is very important!
It worked and still works for me!Teenage girl hair loss?

this usually resorts to vegetraians/vegans, people with eating disorders, or it could just be from you stressing.either that or you are lacking some kind of vitamin majorly

it is normal for people to lose a fair amount of hair. it is especially noticed in the shower and/or when brushing/styling hair. this is because you are grooming the hair and pulling away the shedding hair.
hair grows in spurts. and while it is constantly replenishing new hair, it is shedding or getting rid of the old hair.
this is normal.
however, if you are getting bald spots, or your hair is thinning terribly, seek medical attention. this could be due to a keratin deficiency (protein in body that grows hair and nails)
or it could be a condition known as alopecia (which makes hair fall out)
Since as far back as I can remember, I've shed A TON of hair. And I stress on the ';TON'; part (my hair is already very fine and thin, by the way). (: It can be triggered by a lot of things, including stress. That is what stuck out most to me in your question. Also, from my own experience, it seems pretty normal that most girls (especially teen aged ones) lose quite a bit of hair, and also older women. You may want to choose a shampoo and conditioning system that is specifically made to promote strong, healthy hair. But definitely don't worry about it unless you start to notice your hair really thinning out, resulting in bald spots.
hi,
i had a lot of hair loss too, especially with stress. i tried all sorts of vitamins for hair %26amp; herbs for stress, but nothing worked. this isn't to say that junk food and unhealthy habits don't matter! but about a year ago i started taking biotin, 5mg per day--i just started taking 2 pills a day, don't know why i didn't think of that before :D 'oh!
it didn't stop overnight but after a month or two my hair stopped falling out. whereas before i would get a depressing handful of hair every time i washed or brushed my hair, now i get less than 10 strands falling out. my hair is growing faster and is so thick that even a clerk at my grocery store, where i've been shopping for a few years, complimented me yesterday!
there are expensive ';hair skin %26amp; nails'; vitamins you can take, but i've been using just biotin. i get it from vitacost.com, a 10-month supply for $12.
many people have recommended silica to me for healthy hair. just 2 or 3 days ago i started taking silica in the form of DE (diatomaceous earth--it sounds weird but i did lots of research), and today when i brushed my hair, i swear only 2 or 3 strands came out! i've bought ';biosil'; in the past, $25-35 for 60 capsules, but i got a 5lb bag of DE for $8.

Teenage hair loss...?
For the past about 5 months, my hair has been coming out, not in clumps, just more when brushing and washing it etc, and thinning slightly. Is this hormones, or could it be my diet which isn't that great?Teenage hair loss...?
Teenage hair loss is becoming more and more common even in girls as young as 13. The best natural remedy for female hair loss are aromatherapy scalp formulas using essnetial oils such as rosemary, peppermint, basil etc. You can make your own or purchase from the source below.
There are many possible causes. You can read about the common causes of teenage hair loss here: http://ezinearticles.com/?Common-Causes-鈥?/a>
Teenage hair loss...?
It could be genetic (any baldness in your family?), high stress, or poor diet. Also, don't brush excessively. That can cause your hair to fall out faster.
To make your hair seem fuller than it is, use volumizing products. Also, putting olive oil in your hair as a masque ten minutes before you shower works pretty well, I've always found.
I would say not to use chemicals on your hair.Why don't you go for some home remedies. Egg whites, lemon juice, oil massages, reducing stress and diet changes can reduce hair fall and make it healthier.You can find more cheap, effective and natural home remedies for hair loss as well as for healthy hair at http://www.wellnesstalk.org/hairfall.htm鈥?/a>
acne meds like accutane and tretinoin cream cause hair loss and certain birth control pills with low estrogen %26amp; higher androgen hormones in them. also a major stress event can cause telogen effluvium--where the hair has a big shed in the body's response to stress
if your on a diet hair loss is symtom of anarexia so id go to the doctor
well write what you eat or how many calories you eat a day! and ill edit my answer for you1

Teenage hair loss?
i started discovering these bald patches at the crown area when i was just 15. now im 19 and the problem is still there.. i've used expensive hair tonics but it doesnt seem to work.. recently i found out that my hair loss might be due to oily scalp.. what can i do?
p.s i have dry and curly hairTeenage hair loss?
My youngest brother started going bald on the top of his head at 14 years of age. He hadn't even started growing a beard yet! The doctors told him that he had inherited his male pattern baldness, and there was nothing he could do about it. (This was the 60's.)
Now he has a full head of hair like he never had in the past, but he went through five years of hair transplant treatments that cost him the equivalent of a German sports car to achieve.Teenage hair loss?
Go to a hormonal doctor, an endrocronologist and have them do some hormonal tests to make sure everything is okay. My bf started getting bald spots around 24 but 15 seems very young. This is important 'cause you want to nip it in the bud before you're completely bald at 21! It has nothing to do with an oily scalp, dry hair, or curly hair! I have all those and have a beautiful thick, head full of hair! See that doctor!
Hi,
I would suggest that you work on this from a twin approach.. from outside in and inside out.
Our hair growth is not just dependent on the state of the health of our hair or scalp. Sometimes it is also linked to whether or kidneys are functioning ok and whether our body is too acidic.
if your body is too acidic. i would suggest a detox to cleanse it.
At the same time, you can consider other stuff to encourage hair growth.. like my hubby started using this showerhead tat filters away chlorine and that helps in promoting hair growth and lots of baby hair started to grow on his scalp.
Actually, I would suggest that you actually do an iris scan. For a mere $10, you can find out the condition of your health and may also find out the reason to your hair loss problem. Most importantly, the iris analyst will be able to give you solutions to how to solve this problem.
if you are keen, you can email me at verityy@yahoo.com
From what you are describing, when you say you have an oily scalp but dry hair it sounds like seborrhea dermatitis, a condition in which your oil is so thick, it can not escape the pores of your scalp. There are prescription shampoos that can help with that, or get a good dandruff shampoo as they contain a coal tar that is useful in treating the scalp.
Hope this helps you.

Teenage hair loss!!!?
ok so maybe i asked this question before but i wanna be a bit more specific.
i'm a 15 yr old female. And i've noticed that my hair has been falling out alot whenever i brush it. Like about 10 strands or something. Even when i only brush the sides 2-3 strands fall out. It wasn't like that before but it started at the start of february and it's winter here. So i asked my mom about it and she said it's normal to shed but i have never lost this much when brushing before. Sometimes it will just fall out. I went to see a dermatologist and he didn't seem to listen to me and said it's normal as well (i hate him!!). I'm not stressed or anything. My diet's pretty normal. It's just been like everyday except my hair just suddenly started shedding this year. Is it hormones or something? And i feel really envious of my little sister when she brushes her hair next to me and only 2 or 3 strands fall out. I'm getting a haircut tomorrow, up to my shoulders but i'm not sure if it will help.plz replyTeenage hair loss!!!?
I am sorry to break this to you, but you might have Alopecia Areata.
Here is some more information:

Since I'm not a doctor, I suggest you go to a different dermatologist since the one that you have doesn't seem very good.
If it turns out you do Alopecia, you can e-mail me anytime for support. Also, there is a really good book about a little girl who got Alopecia: Because of Anya, by Margaret Haddix.Teenage hair loss!!!?

Do you have acne? Weight mostly on your stomach? I don't know- hair loss in women is a sign of PCOS. As is losing hair and it starts like that. I started like that as a teen- just shedding everywhere and now I am starting to have male pattern baldness (thank goodness for women's rogaine) I actually do have PCOS and it took me about 10 years to figure it out and get a doctor to take me seriously.
You need not worry much about hair fall if its not unusually rampant.Its common that hair falls and new hair gets generated.
Its also true that hair fall takes place if you had fallen sick and you are recovering.
Hair fall also takes place if you are not able to absorb Zinc from food owing to digestive disorders and you are unable to understand the same.
therefore you may consult a doctor and take necessary help if needed.
well i think it is normal but maybe a hair cut will help or it could be that ur stressed bout somethin.....
it's nothing to worry about. it's pretty normal even if it's happening more now than before. it may well be stressed. you don't have to feel particularly stressed to actually BE stressed. youre body may be under stress or it could be subconscious. your a teenager and teenagers go through a lot. the shampoo and conditioner suggestion was good. you may need to change those. try garnier. it's not so expensive, but if you don't want to spend that much, suave is cheaper. they are both good brands. herbal essences is also good. it could also be the hair products you may use such as hairspray, gels, mousse, etc. if you straighten your hair, you could have the kind of hair that reacts badly to that so just don't straighten it. also if you sprunch your hair those products are not really very good for your hair. it doesn't matter what the bottle says or what company it's from. the chemicals that make your hair sprunch aren't good for your hair. honestly, it sounds very normal though. i wouldn't worry about it.
i wouldn't say that you have Alopecia Areata. it sould be a bigger difference. i learned about that in class a while back and more hair will come out. usually it will just fall out on its own and you'll see clumps of hair on your clothes all the time. this does honestly sound like a typical thing. hair comes out on my brush too especially of it's tangled.
People shed at least 100 hairs a day. It's particularly normal at this time of year, when the air is cold and dry. Don't feel bad, I had the same reaction when I went to a dermatologist. A good hairdresser can give you strengthening treatments that will help improve the overall health and elasticity of your hair. So, give that a try.
Believe me, I've been there, it can be really stressful, having hair breakage.
Hi,
In my opinion, you're too young to take medication for hair loss. I'd try some home remedies, like the following:
* Make lettuce and spinach juice and mix them together. Wash your face with the mixture daily.
* Break one egg and apply on your hair for 1 hour, massage your hair a few times for better results.
* Pour olive oil on your head and massage it into your scalp to prevent more hair loss.
* Boil water in a pot and add rosemary leaves, mix and cook until you get a mixture. Wait for 30 minutes and apply on your hair.
* Massage Aloe Vera into your scalp wash it with lukewarm water.
* Mix honey and egg yolk and apply on your hair. Let it stand for 20-40 minutes and wash well with cold water so it won't stick.
* Use coconut milk instead of shampoo when washing your hair.
* Henna is very good for the hair, it makes it shine and also very good when losing hair. Apply henna on your hair, let it stand for a few minutes but not too long or your hair will turn red.
* Mix rosemary leaves with lemon, egg white, and olive oil. Apply on your hair for 20-40 minutes and wash with cold water.
* Smear honey on your scalp, let it stand for 20 minutes and wash with warm water. Be careful the honey might stick to your hair, use only with short hair.
Good luck
It could be that your under alot of stress... That does cause hairloss. But It could be conditioners, Shampoos and such that you are allergic to that could be causing it. idk. You should see a hair doctor.

Teenage Hair Loss?
My sister is seventeen and she is losing hair in such a way that it is noticeable and that one can see her scalp at various areas atop her scalp. She is generally losing hair along her hair line, and near the back top of her crown. She has noticably been losing hair for about a year and she has an irregular menstrual cycle. At one point, she did not have her period for six months! Also, she is around 10-15 pounds overweight and although she has been tested for thyroids and poly cystic sydrome (or something like that)--all of her tests came back normal. She loses a lot of hair daily and her hair is always dry and frizzy, however when she goes without showering for even one day, her hair appears really oily and her hair loss is even easier to spot. She used to have thick, rich, luscious hair--and now we don't know what's happened. Can anyone help? She is very insecure about it. Also, her mother seemed to have lost a bit of hair around the age of seventeen as well. What to do?Teenage Hair Loss?
I use to work for a hair loss clinic here in australia and although female hair loss is uncommon it does happen and hair loss can happen in all ages. Our youngest patient was 17 and went right up to men in there 50's. Ladies are very insecure about there hair loss. Usually as you are on the right track it is a sign of over active thyroids or poly cystic sydrome. It is normal to lose over 100 hairs a day, but from what you explained she may be loosing to much to be having a receeding hairline. Believe it or not, the male pattern baldness men experience is usually passed on through the mother (thus your mum thinning out). It doesn't really explain your sister. Do you have any places near where you live that do consultations on hair loss? Where I worked Consultations were free and you got a lot of useful information. For females they may require the blood test results, most likely, thyroid tests, hormone tests, estrogen levels. Take those along with you and her and see what they reccomend. Although using a place like this can be quite costly you may just find out exactly what is the cause. The longer she leaves it the harder repairing it will be.
I am not sure where you live but if you can get your hands on Saw Palmetto (vitamin) it will reduce the amount of hair falling out.
Other things to consider - climate (temperature and humidity), shampoo (some weaken your hair), and diet (low iron can make your hair fall out) as well as anorexia, drug usage (some drugs make your hair fall out ie steroids or speed).Teenage Hair Loss?
A dermatologist could help you with that. They would give you shots in the bald spot areas and prescribe a product that might help.
My sister used to have a few bald spots, but her hair grew back with the help of shots (the dermatologists assistant will numb the area and you will only feel a little sting for like a sec.) , she uses Womens Rogaine, and for conditioner and shampoo she uses Back to Basics.
tell your sister to go for a check up that could be a sign of cancer
get the vitamin Biotin 1000mcgs....its for skin, hair %26amp; nails...it really works!...But she has to take it everyday and not stop taking it
Ask your doctor. There's a disorder called alopesia (sp?) where you lose a lot of your hair.
If your sisters family has a side of hair loss then that could be the problem. If you notice any side of her family with baldness or very thin hair then she will have very thin hair. This is very normal, it happens all the time. Hope my advice is helpful for your sister. You also might want to think about using Tresseme' or Aussie hair shampoo and conditioner for the whole frizzy and damaged thing. Thanks, ^^^Brandon^^^

Female Pattern Baldness (FPB) effects 1 out of every 4 women in the United States. Recent findings have found that the incidence of FPB has been reported to be as low as 8% and as high as 87%. And, it does appear to be as common for women as for men. Most often, menopause is the most frequent time for female hair loss to become apparent
For women hair loss can be even more troubling than for men. Female hair loss is not generally accepted as part of the normal aging process. Society has come to expect a thick, luxurious head of hair as part of the attractiveness in women.
While men and women can both experience pattern baldness, they typically do not lose their hair in the same order or appearance.

Stress will cause hair loss as a teen. Vitamin deficiencies can also cause it. I would say go to a different doctor and see what they say.

Teenage girl wants to stop hair loss?
Ok, I've been shedding since I was 12. Tons of hair falls out through out the day. I know its suppose to be normal to lose a 100 hairs a day but my hair is thinning WAY too much and my friends dont lose nearly as much hair as me. I'm guessing its cuz i dont eat veggies, but is there specific foods that nourish hair or anything i can do? I DONT WANT TO HAIR BARELY OR NO HAIR PLZ HELPTeenage girl wants to stop hair loss?
First off,you probably should get a doctors appt,this may be medical,a thyriod issue...are you on any medications?Certain meds can cause hair loss too.
Protein is the most impotant,meat,fish,eggs,milk,nuts...hair is made up of Keratin,which is protein.
Get on some Vitamins...here's the best hair boosters;
Multi-Vitamin daily
Biotin(2,500 mgs)daily
Omega 3,6%26amp;9 Complex daily
Hair/skin/nail Formula daily
This is the best combo,and it is safe,Biotin is water soluble,meaning anything your body does not use will be expelled via the urine.
Omega(paticularly 3)(fish oil),is something that is needed in the body,our bodies can NOT manufacture it on it's own,it must be consumed through diet,and the 6%26amp;9 in addition are wonderful for skin/hair/nails as well.
Vitamins also work in synergy,meaning that some will not be absorbed properly(or at all)without the addition of others,so that's the importance of the multi-vitamin.
And the HSN Formula is just a ';boost'; in addition to the rest.
I'd still advise a docotors appt though,asap!Just to be safe.Teenage girl wants to stop hair loss?
Here a few simple home remedies which can be tried at home to control hair fall.
1.Rinse your hair with a mix of apple cider vinegar and sage tea this helps hair grow..
2. A medicine rich in sulfur is also recommended as sulfur plays an important part in the structure of the hair.
3. Massage with olive oil before going to bed at night and next morning, wash off the hair gently..
4. To treat hair loss apply a little lemon juice with some black tea.Massage well and shampoo.
5. Beat two eggs,and add two tablespoons of water to it. Rinse hair and pour the egg mixture over the hair.Massage the scalp well and leave for 10 minutes.Then wash it.
You should take plenty of green vegetables, fruits, sprouts, honey, cereals, nuts, grains and milk products in your diet. Eat fish if non-vegetarian or else take soybeans, and raw vegetable salads.
