My hair used to be thick.. what caused this? help!?

I used to have really thick, wavy hair... and within the last year it started falling out (in the shower, when i brush it, etc.) I think its just from getting older (but im only 25!).

What could have caused this??

And how do I get my thick hair back!?!?

It is not normal for a 25 yr old womans' hair to fall out like that. Stress can cause some fall out, but it sounds like a hormone imbalance or thyroid condition. See a doctor ASAP. Best of luck to you.

Brushing it too much can cause it to go thin-along with washing it too much and using straighteners etc. All of these things can take it's toll on your hair. Ask the hairdressers or doctors advice.

You might have a thyroid condition. My mother-in-law has thyroid problems and her hair was also falling out (so did a girl I knew in high school - her hair was falling out at 17). I would ask your doctor if he/she can test you for hyper or hypo active thyroid.

did u try having your hair straightened? cause straightening your hair can usually cause a lot of hair to fall...but if you didnt then maybe you're in a lot of stress and dont eat healthy food...

try using mane 'n tail shampoo, i heard that this shampooo helps in making the hair thicker. but never tried it myself tho..

try this product, "Hair Regrowth Lotion" by Focus (i think its from australia), this product is recommended by my hairstylist...when he started to observed that my hairline seems to become wider :)

i have been using this product for at least 8 months and the result is encouraging cos i see short hair sprinting out around my hairline (where i divide my hair)

remember to wash hair with cold water, NO HOT WATER!! when you pour your shampoo onto ur hand, start scrubbing ur hair from ur back of ur head rather than on the top of ur head....massage it while scrubbing and only apply hair conditioner on the end of ur hair, try not to let your scalp in contact with the conditioner when done make sure you rinse your hair thoroughly!!

use a wide tooth comb to run through your hair, do not pull your hair by force when its get tangle on the ends...

:) good luck to you, hope you will get back ur thick hair soon!!

It could very well be a health issue, or if you've recently had a baby that is a very common occurence. I would at least call your doctor and find out what he/she thinks
