How to know when hair loss is normal or too much

When does hair loss change from an average normal amount of 150 hairs per today to significant hair loss?

First of all, let's talk about what is considered normal hair loss.  Your hair is on a natural growth cycle, which means that each strand of your hair grows for a few years and then will shed.  Once the strand has shed, a new follicle forms and so does a new strand.  As we age, your hair may not grow back as thick as it might have been in the past and that is why you may find your hair to be less full than it was.

So, what is not so normal with hair loss?  If you start to see patches where there is no longer any hair or your part may look a bit bigger than it was in the past, these are signs that you are losing more hair than what is considered to be "normal" hair loss.  If this is something  that you have started to notice with your own hair, then we have a few steps we think are important to take in order to figure out what might be causing your hair loss.

1.  It is always a good idea to first consult with your general doctor.  There are many medical reasons for hair loss, such as medications, autoimmune illness, vitamin deficiencies as well as genetics, to name a few.

2.  Stress can also be a factor, so think back, have you endured a lot of stress recently, even as far back as a few months?  Stress is not only mental either, stress from dieting may  also be causing your hair loss, so keep that in mind as well.

3. Give some thought about the way you are taking care of your hair.  If you brush your hair too vigorously or wear tight ponytails regularly, this too can be causing your hair to fall out.

Getting a full head of hair

Most Men and Women's biggest complaint about their hair is the lack of fullness.  There are many reasons why hair may appear a bit flatter than we might like. Some common reasons are cooler temperatures, hormonal changes and age.

One way to tell if you truly do have hair that needs a bit more volume.  Turn your head upside down, using your fingers fluff your hair from the roots. If your hair falls flat when you flip your hair back up, then you are in need of some volume. 

Donte's of New York, wants to provide you with a head of hair that you could be proud of. One that has the volume you are looking for.  Below are a few of the ways that Donte's of New York can help you achieve the fullness you desire:

• Products can make a big difference when trying to create a fuller look. One of the key elements is shampooing your hair daily.  Clean hair will add more volume and using a gentle cleanser such as Qshi Moisturizing Shampoo or Sudzz FX Whipped Cream and Honey will definitely get the results you are looking for. Conditioning your hair correctly is also important. You want to make sure that you use a product that moisturizes without making your hair too soft.  Donte's of New York recommends using Qshi Bio Hydrate Conditioner or Sudzz FX Enhance. Finally to get the all over volume you need, using a mousse, like Qshi Foam A Cut, will get you the results you desire. Make sure to use a generous amount of mousse, flip your hair over and distribute the product evenly from roots to ends. 
• If products are not getting the desired results, Donte's of New York can help achieve the fullness of your dreams with one of our many hair additions.

Summer Hair

Now that summer is in full effect, we know you want to put on your favorite shorts or sundress and what goes best with great summer clothes?  Perfect summer hair of course.

Summer is the time of year that most of us enjoy the outdoors as much as possible.  Along with enjoying your outdoor time, you also get a lot more exposure to the sun. Although the sun is very beneficial, providing you with lots of vitamin D, it does not always fare as well with your hair.  The hot sun, can cause frizz, brassiness and even in the most extreme cases, breakage.  So, what are some things you can do to keep your tresses, looking their best this summer?

Below are some of our favorite summer products that will keep your hair healthy and gorgeous:

2. 444 spray-This is a terrific leave in conditioner that helps keep your hair moisturized, while at the same time takes away the frizzes.  An added bonus, sun protection is built in to this product. Use it all day if you are going to be outside. Apply as often as you apply your sunscreen for the best affect.

The importance of conditioner

Conditioning your hair is one of the most important things you can do to help keep your hair healthy. 

We love the Suddz FX line of conditioners. They have several different conditioners that work well on all hair types.  Enhance is a very light conditioner and works great on fine hair.  Aquafix is great for most hair types as it is a medium bodied conditioner and finally Moxee is fantastic for thicker, curlier hair or just for a deep condition on any hair type.  

Using conditioner properly is key, make sure to leave it on your hair for at least two minutes to allow it to penetrate into your hair.
