Approximately 90% of all hair is in its growth stage and it takes about 25 days to grow about half an inch of hair. The growth stage or anagen can last for 2 – 5 years before going to the next stage which is the catagen stage.
About 3% of all hair is in the catagen stage which is the transition stage. This means that hair has become dormant and no longer growing. Before going to the next stage, this stage last for about two to three weeks.
The last stage is the telogen stage or also called the resting stage. About 8 -10% of hair are in this stage and lasts for about 100 days. At this stage hair is shed off completely getting ready for new hair growth , thus going through the whole process again. It is not alarming to shed 100 telogen hairs a day . In fact, shedding 25 to 100 hairs is actually normal. There are some conditions that can cause an abnormal increase in hair shedding(more than 100 hairs) like child bearing, severe stress, traumatic experiences like a major operations, medications specially chemotherapy, or over dieting to get slimmer.
Fortunately, all of these conditions can be reversed once the underlying cause has been resolved. Like for example, after child birth there will be some excessive hair loss in the first few months but will grow back by the 5th month or once a chemotherapy session has ended hair will eventually grow back. All of these conditions are temporary and hair shedding does not lead to baldness.
