...Let's get to know the small warning sings so that you could check yourself if there is any early sign of hair loss and balding?
1
Hair shedding is considered a normal condition. Daily, hair that comes to the end of the hair growth cycle fall naturally, about 70 - 100 hair strands a day. It may seem a very small amount when compared with the amount of hair wholly on the head that are about 90,000 - 140,000 hair strands. But if you look at the comb, on a pillow or in the shower, and see the hair falling out in greater numbers, this may be a warning sigh of hair loss.

Every morning when you look in the mirror, try observing the frontal hairline along the forehead to see if it has started receding. Simply check by measuring the distance from the middle of your eyebrows straight up to the middle of your hairline, which should be no wider than 6.5 centimeters.
Mostly in men, M-shaped hairline is the most common hair pattern because the thinning hair always occurs on both temples first. To determine if it is a warning sign of balding, measure the distance from the head of an eyebrow up to the hairline on the temple on the same side, at the deepest M-shaped concave. If the distance obtained is more than 8 centimeters, it can be said that the symptom starts to be worrisome.

Thinning hair on the top of the head: It usually takes several years for thinning hair to develop into baldness. Based on some research studies, Asian men experience thinning hair on the top of the head rather than on the frontal hairline.

Gradually thinning hair all over the head: This could happen as well. As the pattern of hair loss and thinning hair can be said to happen to everyone without any limitation. There is no specific area of problem. However, this pattern is more common in women than men.

While combing or styling your hair, do not forget to pay attention to the hair parting that may be widen until it becomes a prominent parting. This is a good way to spot hair loss and thinning hair in women. If the parting is more than one centimeter wide, it can be deemed an early-stage thinning hair.

Slower hair growth when compared with the past. Normally, our hair grows six inches per year. So whenever you notice that from the last time you had a haircut and it seems to take longer time to have the same length of hair, it is likely to be an effect of declining performance of hair follicular function which results in weak hair and easily-falling out hair.
Last but not least, a warning sign of hair loss and thinning hair may come in the form of a human voice from someone close to you like friends or family members who can notice the normality or abnormality of your hair easier than you do. Don't forget to double check following our recommended methods so that you can start dealing with your hair problems early. Start early before it's too late.
