Why are you losing hair? There's not much else that can scare you as quickly as finding out that your hair is falling out in large amounts. What will happen to you if it continues to do this? It is not uncommon for people to lose hair. Most people lose as much as 100 strands every single day. But when it comes more obvious or when you start to see a large amount of hair falling out at once, it is time to get in to see your doctor. It also helps to know why this can happen. The most common reasons are not the only reasons to lose hair.

Having curly hair is such a blessing. That's what many people with naturally curly hair hear from others around them. But, what these individuals do not know is just how much work and stress curly hair can bring to their lives. It frizzes. It tangles easy. And, it can be hard to manage when the humidity rises. What can be done if you have curly hair and just want it to be better under control? The good news is there are several steps you can take to gain better control over your locks and feel good about the way it looks every time you step out of the home.

There are many contributing factors that can cause hair loss. Some of them you cannot control. For example, if your hair loss is due to genetics, it is less likely you will be able to stop the hair loss from occurring – though you may be able to slow that loss or even stop it. However, some of the most common causes of hair loss directly relate to the way you live your life and even the way you style your hair. If you have not done so yet, consider the way you do your hair each morning. Are you doing things that can trigger significant hair loss? In many cases of moderate hair loss – in both men and women – hair styling methods are to blame.

You're getting old. You're super stressed. These are some of the most common "causes" for hair going gray. For those who are wondering what is really behind the change in color of their hair, think again. There are various reasons why your hair may fade from that dark black to gray or go from a light blonde to near white hair. What's most important is that you take into consideration that you can change hair color very easily, without a lot of cost, and without having to worry about long term side effects. Still, you probably want to know, why is your hair going gray?

We are excited that LoHud.com, a division of USA Today News network featured Unique Hair Concepts owner, Flora Fuentes and client Micheal Perlaza. The following is an article written by Karen Roberts:

Time was, thinning hair meant it was time to consider a wig, a toupee, or often painful, expensive, artificial-looking hair transplants resulting in “doll head” — the embarrassing telltale look caused by large hair plugs compressed into to small holes.

Are you wondering why you hair is thinning? Of all the possible reasons your hair is falling out, the last might be your innocent-seeming purse—but its heavy shoulder strap can trap hair, pulling it out and leading to thinning hair. “Hair breakage due to handbag straps is actually fairly common,” says board-certified dermatologist Tsippora Shainhouse, MD.
