Hey all
So I've posted before about possibly going through a TE episode. Over the last few months my hair shedding has steadily risen from around 30-50 hairs per day, to something like 60-80. Still under the 100 a day threshold but it's difficult to tell for sure how much is coming out, especially as I only tend to notice the medium or long bits of my hair that come out (my hair is thick, wavyish and goes down to my mid-back). There's possibly more short bits that come out too, but I don't usually notice them.
Except when I do? It possibly falls under "it happens to everyone" category, but do people shed short hairs too? I've noticed recently that when I take a shirt off at the end of a day the inside of it is littered with lots (maybe 30ish) little hairs, most shorter than the length of an eyelash. Some of this could be breakage possibly, but a lot do have whiteish ends to them.
What's going on here? Do people have this normally?
I can dimly remember seeing things like this before, but I guess I've just disregarded it as my long-hair-shed has never been excessive for me, so I had no reason to worry. Now though, I'm not sure.
