Seeing hair in the drain can feel like proof that you’re losing it, but normal shedding and progressive hair loss are not the same thing.

For many people, shedding approximately 50 to 100 hairs per day can fall within a normal range. Wash day may look more dramatic because several days of loose strands can release at once.

Shedding may need professional assessment when it:

• Changes suddenly
• Remains heavy for more than three months
• Returns finer, shorter, or weaker
• Is accompanied by a widening part or receding hairline

Bleach doesn’t simply “lift” your hair color. It oxidizes melanin while permanently altering the proteins and protective lipids that give the hair shaft strength, elasticity, and shine.

That is why overprocessed, bleached hair can feel rough, porous, stretchy when wet, and increasingly prone to breakage.

To protect bleached hair:

✓ Never overlap lightener onto previously bleached lengths
✓ Use a bond builder during the lightening service
✓ Balance protein treatments with moisture
✓ Detangle gently while wet
✓ Keep heat low and always use heat protection
✓ Use an acidic finishing treatment when appropriate

Remember, short pieces without a root bulb usually indicate breakage, not shedding.

Save this before your next bleaching appointment, and send it to someone who thinks more bleach is always the answer.

What surprised you most about what bleach actually does to the hair?
