Telogen effluvium - the most common type of hair loss that catches people completely off guard.⁠
⁠
Here's what's happening:⁠
🔄 Your hair has 3 phases: growing, resting, falling out⁠
⏰ Normal cycle: 2-3 years growing, 3 months resting, then falls out⁠
⚠️ With telogen effluvium: 30-50% of your hair suddenly shifts into resting phase⁠
📅 3 months later = massive hair loss all at once⁠
⁠
The good news? This is usually temporary and your hair will grow back once the trigger is addressed.⁠
⁠
Common triggers: stress, illness, major life changes, hormonal shifts, certain medications.⁠
⁠
If you're experiencing sudden, dramatic hair loss - don't panic, but do see a dermatologist to rule out other causes.⁠
