Why do women lose hair, do they end up getting bald or sport bald spots? Is it similar to those that cause male baldness? Being aware of the scientific facts will help us understand the process of hair growth.

Hair experts believe that hair tresses grow at the rate of about ½ inch per month with hair having a growth phase of two to six years. After this period, there is a point when the hair rests then falls out. The follicle from where it fell then starts growing a new strand. This cycle continues until well into old age.
