Grab a handful of hair and pull lightly 15 times on different parts of your scalp. How many hairs do you get?

In 15 pulls sometimes I get 10-12 hairs. And I feel like I can keep doing this for an hour and get hundreds.

My hairs very short due to a recent transplant but with my dog I could do this constantly for days and still get hairs ( she’s not going bald so hopefully this makes u feel better ) I’ve Even including a pic. Excuse the dribble

 

[Jamiewilliams77777]

I will try this for u once my hairs a little longer

I got 1 in 15 pulls. But I took shower this morning and cleaned out my hair. I lost about 50 in the shower so that is probably why not as much came out.

Dude I get like 10

Edit: just got 6

Maybe my longer hair makes it easier to come out?

Your dog is clearly thinning on her chest, plz get her on finasteride asap.

I need more answers for research

I just did 15 pulls and got 5 hairs on the sink. Some other times I can get up to 15-20. It depends but yeah if I did that for an hour I also feel like I’d get hundreds.

Yeah. People with shorter hair would be losing hair throughout the day and not noticing, whereas longer hairs tend to stay dormant until physical moved as they're being "propped up" by other longer hairs.

Lol at the dog test...dogs literally she'd like no other and will never bald its mechanism is nothing like humans.....you should stop pulling your own hair out.

3 hairs came out. Rest in peace, buddies.

I didn't pull too hard because I don't want to lose any more hair even for the sake of science. Sorry.

If you pull out the hairs by giving immense pressure hairs will come whether you are balding or not..Though we a gentle grab of 100-200 hair,I can pull out 2-4 hairs

 

[Ayr9]

And yea if I dont shampoo for 10 days(lol),then I get 2-3 hairs on each pul of 10-15 hairs from everywhere on the scalp....And yea short or long hair I see hair everywhere

When my hair was longer and at the peak of my loss this summer, I was able to get over 10 hairs per pull.

Between 5 and 8 hairs with each pull. So for 15 pulls, I'd estimate anywhere between 75 to 120 hairs total.

Oh wow. How does your hair look?

Honestly, I think I just needed to brush my hair. Because I did this yesterday (yeah I joined today...I was lurking), and then I tried again today about 20 minutes after a shower (this would be approx. 24 hours after the first pulling session), and I averaged less than 1 hair per pull, I'd say around 10-12 total after 15 pulls. I hadn't properly combed my hair in a couple of days, just running my hands through it to tidy it up, so I think that properly contributed to there being such a discrepancy between the two sessions.

I have somewhat long, unruly hair. Norwood 3-ish and thinning on the crown. It doesn't appear to be speeding up; I've been noticeably balding for at least 3 years, I'd estimate.

On meds?

On meds?

Oh no, no, certainly not. I value my libido more than my hair. Shockingly, I have someone who has use for that libido despite the disgusting, increasingly sparse rat's nest on top of my head. No, I'm going the natural route. Either positive energy, exercise, and taking my vitamins will help or they won't, in which case f*** it, I'll go full Larry David like my father and just own it.

 

[Pixie]

15 medium pressure pulls. 8 hairs.

I have long hair and last showered yesterday during the day.

I feel like these are decent results. A few months ago I was getting TONS of hair just regularly running my hands through it.
