Approximately half of the human population will experience some form of hair loss before the age of 50. Although in many ways it is more accepted and more easily dealt with than in the past, hair loss can still be psychologically devastating for many people. Luckily, in recent years, science has brought significant new understanding about this age old problem.

Causes of temporary hair loss can include: thyroid or other hormonal problems, diabetes, lupus, chemotherapy, psychiatric disorders, reaction to medications, infections, stress from physical injuries or surgery, malnutrition, braids or weaves(or other things that cause physical trauma to the hair follicles).
