Hey ladies (& gents, I suppose)! Okay, since I joined the board, I've been treating my hair w/ major TLC, and already I'm seeing great results. Buuuuut... I'm shedding! Since coming to LHCF, I'm obsessed w/ hair care, so I always examine the hairs I lose. My breakage is minimal, but I notice the majority of hair I lose is long w/ the follicle in tact. I don't lose a ton of hair at all (it's only about 10-15 strands when I comb in the shower). But in between washes when finger-combing, every time I touch my hair, I always have shedded strands on my fingers. So far, I don't buy the "losing 100 strands a day is healthy" theory, but if it's true, it's definitely less than 100.
I'm really new to taking care of my hair & I'm still figuring out what's normal for my hair. So, I'm probably overreacting lol, but just in case, how much shedding is normal for you? Are there any ways to decrease shedding?
Thanks!
Oh and on an unrelated topic.. what the heck is "slip??" I know it's good to have, but Idk what it is!
