JAKARTA - Hair loss is a natural body cycle and is natural to occur. However, the number of hair loss every day must still be considered properly.

This is because the normal number of hair loss is 50 to 100 per day. If more than that number, then it can be a sign of serious problems.

"During the normal hair cycle, 90 percent of the rmabut strand is in the growth phase and about 10 percent are in the knockout phase," said dermatologist Mona Gohara, MD, quoted from Prevention, on Thursday, September 11, 2025.

The normal number of hair loss is around 50 to 100 strands per day. If you see hair loss exceeding that number, it's most likely not normal," he added.

Therefore, it is important to know the cause of hair loss in an unnatural amount, including daily habits. Here are some habits that can cause your hair loss.

1. Stress

Stress can attack anyone and be experienced every day by many people. Stress not only drains energy, but can also affect the hair growth cycle.

When experiencing severe stress, cortisol levels or stress hormones increase, which can interfere with the hair growth cycle. This encourages hair follicles to enter the resting phase early, causing hair depletion as a whole.

2. Arrangement and hair care products

How to style hair can also cause hair to fall out. The rmabut style of horseshoes that are too tight, kepang, or bun, can damage hair follicles over time.

Likewise, the use of heating devices, chemical care, and hard products that contain excessive sulfate or alcohol can weaken strands of hair and trigger knocked out.

3. Incommensurate eating patterns

Hair loss can also be triggered by an unbalanced daily diet. Such as a strict diet or drastic weight loss is often the cause of efluvium telogen, faster hair loss than growth.

Therefore, it is important to ensure complete nutritious food intake, namely fiber, protein, omega-3, biotin, and vitamin C and E, to get healthy hair.
