Most scalp hair loss is normal. Adults have approximately 100,000 hairs on their heads. These hairs follow a predictable pattern of active growing, followed by a resting and shedding period. The growth period may last as long as two to ten years, whereas the resting/shedding stage may take only a few months. On average, you lose and replace about 50 to 150 hairs per day. Hair grows slightly faster in women than in men. Visible hair loss occurs when the number of hairs in the growth phase no longer keeps pace with the number of hairs in the shedding stage. Men tend to lose hair around the front of the face and the crown of the scalp. Hair loss in women tends to appear as overall thinning.
