A few months ago, I was started on a course of hair loss treatment. It all came about when my hair started falling out all over the place for what seemed like no good reason. One evening, I was washing my hair and pulled out a few detached hairs with the shampoo, as I often did, but come the time the conditioner had worked, I noticed more and more of my hair was falling out in my hands. By the end of the bath, I had 2 fistfuls of hair and I had no idea why. It was pretty scary to begin with. I still had to brush my hair, too, which I knew would collect more of the hair and show up the true extent of the loss I had sustained. It was all a bit of a panic to begin with but my partner calmed me down and said the stress would only make it worse.
