Hair changes are a natural part of aging — but not all hair loss should be accepted as inevitable.
Understanding the difference between normal hair aging and concerning patterns of hair loss is key to building an effective anti-aging hair care strategy.
What’s considered normal with aging:
✅ Gradual decrease in hair density starting after age 40
✅ Slight slowing of hair growth cycle
✅ Mild reduction in pigment (graying)
✅ Some diffuse thinning — more common in women during perimenopause/menopause
Signs that hair loss may require further evaluation:
✅ Sudden or rapid hair shedding
✅ Patchy hair loss or bald spots
✅ Hair falling out in large amounts with brushing/washing
✅ Loss of eyebrow or body hair
✅ Coexisting symptoms — fatigue, weight gain, mood changes, skin changes
