How many hairs should be in shower drain?

[notsure]

So i'm new here. 29 year old male. I have had a high hairline my ENTIRE life, but am not balding or anything. I do however see quite a bit a of recession in my hairline and when i comb my hair back i can tell how truly deep it is (not one of these poster who is delusional and has great hair, don't worry), or if i get a bad haircut. howver, my hair is really quite thick. when i was a teenager i could sit in class and just brush my head and hair would fall out all over my book. i swear i could do that all day long and 1 out of every 3 times it would fall out.

my point is i use to think that i would be bald by the time i was 21 than 25 than 28 now i'm 29 and have thick hair though quite a HIGH hairline... i feel like i see hairs EVERYWHERE these days, in the most obsurdly random places (ON THE WALL!) and i have about an average of 30-40 hairs in shower drain, plus another 10 when i comb it out, plus who knows how many through out the day.

i'm hesitant to begin any regime, because I don't know if i REALLY need to, but i think about it enough that i want to. also, i'm pretty embarassed cuz i live with my fiance. some days i think its bad, others i think, Man i'll have hair forever...i will definitly have a bad receding hair line at my most fortunate.

anyway, how many hairs should be in the sink?

thanks

There should be exactly 1637 hairs in the shower drain.

I counted 1638 - what shower were you looking in? :lol:

They say ppl lose on average 50-100 hairs per day.

Do you shower everyday??

30-40 in the shower might not be that much. 10 when combing is nothing.

After showering and combing I sometimes shake my head over a large sheet of white paper just to see how much hair is being shed.

all that matters is the ratio,my brother sheds about 300 hairs a day and has done all his life,my poor mother used to think a gorilla had slept in the bed,he is now 34 years old norwood 1 very thick hair,i on the other hand shed less than 50 a day and i am going bald.

so if you shed say 150 a day,you could be growing another 150
on the other hand if you shed 40 a day and grow 5 back,then your going bald

ha!!! i'm laughing my *** off at "my poor mother use to think a gorilla slept in the bed"!

Body hair, including armpit, pubic, chest, leg, and arm hair also sheds.


That might throw your drain assessment off a tad.
