Rapunzel had a good thing going: luscious volume, strong AF locks and, of course, length for days. If your hair is feeling thin and lacking a bit of lustre, know this: shedding is totally normal (the average person loses approximately 30 to 50 strands a day), but excessive hair loss could be caused by a variety of factors, including age and diet.
If you think you’re losing more hair than usual, make an appointment with a dermatologist. But get this – you can fortify what you’re working with. There are over-the-counter products that can help restore some of your lost hair and strengthen it. Take a look at our selects.
