Hair, what's normal, and what's not?

Your hair and your scalp, can undergo many different stages, Donte's of New York, would like to set the record straight on a few of them.  

Dandruff:  Although these white flakes can be bothersome, dandruff is not something that is contagious nor is it harmful to your body. Dandruff is said to come from oily skin, cold or dry weather, eczema or even stress.  Keeping your scalp oil free and using a dandruff shampoo, can help ail your itchy scalp.  

Seborrheic Dermatitis: Similar to dandruff, but instead of white flakes, these are greasy and yellow in color.  This is actually an inflammatory skin condition and can be the result of an underlying more serious condition. If you are suffering from this, using an antidandruff shampoo is your best course of action.  

Temporary hair loss: Humans generally shed about 100 hairs per day.  When you lose a hair naturally, the new hairs are growing back in at the same time.  However, if you have had a surgery, taken medication, given birth or pretty much anything new and you are saying a great deal of hair loss, you may want to discuss it with your doctor to determine your hair loss' underlying cause.  

Permanent hair loss: Permanent hair loss may be caused by genetics or by an autoimmune disease, such as Alopecia.  For some with alopecia the hair may grow back, while with others, the loss is permanent.
