Generally, about 50-100 scalp hairs are shed per day.

Hair loss depends on many factors that may be out of your control, but there are several ways to help decrease further Hair Loss if you are shedding at a faster rate. These include limiting the frequency of brushing the hair as much as possible, using a conditioner after shampooing, being gentle with your hair by not rubbing with a towel or aggressively brushing it (especially while wet), using wide tooth combs with smooth ends, avoiding high heat and chemicals (dyes, perms, relaxers) and avoiding tight hairstyles that put stress on the follicles.
