Hair is the most important of the body. Loosing hair can cause panic and therefore it is essential to prevent hair loss in early stages. Losing hair is also known as alopecia, and has a definite pattern which is different in both men and women. In early stages one may experience thinning of hair and excessive fall of hair strands. Though, one must not panic if fifty to hundred strands of hair fall in a day, because it is normal. Alopecia may be hereditary or may be caused due to your life style. Applying too much hair gels or other substances that have harmful chemicals can cause loss of hair. But, it can be controlled if a balanced diet is taken and excessive dust and fumes are avoided. There are many treatments that can stop hair loss. But before taking such medications, one must consult a doctor. If a person has lost most of the hair and have formed bald patches, then the doctor may consult him for hair transplant. Though this method is expensive, it is permanent.
