Hair growth occurs in a 4 phase cycle: 1. Anagen phase or growth phase. 2. This is followed by the Catagen Phase or transition phase where hair growth slows down and hair detaches from follicle but stays in place. 3. Hair then enters the Telogen phase where old hair stops growing and new hair starts to form in the follicles. 4. The last step in the cycle is the Exogen phase where hair is shed from the scalp. In general losing 50-100 strands a day is normal. At any given time, hair on our scalp can be in different stages of the hair cycle. Generally 85% of our hair will be in the growth stage. To maximize this Anagen phase and ensure we grow strong and healthy strands, proper diet and good stress management are key.
