Hair Shedding

[Chasity]

Is there anything that can be done to stop shedding..My hair does this mostly during these cold months..It is quite annoying and I just did a deep condition on Saturday

Hello Chasity, Before I personally can answer, I need to know, are You sure it is Shed Hair or could it be breakage?

If you're genuinely shedding (and not having breakage, as Leesh mentioned), then you have to remember that people often shed 50-150 hairs a day. You sound like me; I shed in the winter and not in the summer. I had to remind myself that this shedding is normal and nothing to be worried about. I've heard that garlic can help stop excessive shedding, so I do add garlic oil to my deep conditioner, but know that this is in fact normal, and is probably nothing to be concerned about.

It helps the same way drinking water helps your hair better than putting water on it. Internal regimens are, in my opinion, always better than topical because the problems almost always start internally (unless you're talking about heat and bad results from other topical things). Poor diet, lack of water, lack of exercise, poor cardiovascular health, etc.

If you want your hair to grow better and be healthier, you have to work it from the inside out, as a baseline. Anything topical is only helping retain length.

Garlic is a known anti-shedding agent. Shedding is an internal issue that occurs naturally. Breakage is external, so if you have breakage, more than likely the cause is external (coloring, brushing against surfaces, harsh styling, etc).

Ive been taking Garlic pills for about 2 months now and have definitely noticed a sharp decrease in my shedding.

Nope, buy the odorless ones.
Garlic supplements are one of the more pricey pills, but the added heart health assistance they provide makes taking them worth it.

Chasity, I'm not sure if You know, but to tell whether its shed hair as opposed to breakage hair, shed hair is the length of Your strands and has a tiny white bulb connected to it, which means it came out of Your scalp naturally, and if that is the case then Garlic will help to an extent, at least slow it down. Here is a Great thread that You can refer to:
