It's raining hair, hallelujah.
Or maybe not.
I don't know.

I've been losing quite a bit of hair lately. Maybe it's a normal amount and I'm just noticing it more because... erm... I just am.
Or maybe I'm getting bald.

I have looong hair and they get intensely tangled so I have to comb them rather agressively. Maybe that's it.
Or maybe I'm getting bald.

My hair seem pretty thick. I'm not losing handfuls of hair at a time, just individual ones. Sort of. And I don't have spots where there's noticeably less hair.
But maybe it's just the beginning.
Maybe I'm getting BALD !

I'm a seventeen year old girl. I'm scared and I don't want to wear a wig. :|
Am I cursed or just paranoid ?

    I am a hairdresser. It is normal to lose 70-100 hairs a day. If your hair is long you will notice the shedding more. One way to tell if your hair is getting thinner is to part your hair down the center and measure the width of your part. Do this again in a month and see if the width of your part has gotten wider. If it has I would talk to a doctor.

    Yes, it is completely normal to lose hair. If you are experiencing severe hair loss, you can visit a Trichologist.

    Just shave it. That's what I did. Saves a LOT of $$ on shampoo & gel.
