Every September something happens to me: I see more hair on the brush, in the shower, and even on the pillow. The initial reaction is usually to worry, but I discovered that this phenomenon has a much more reassuring explanation than we think. In fact, specialists have for years pointed out that seasonal hair shedding is common during this time of year and forms part of the natural cycle of hair renewal.
What surprised me most when delving into the topic is that losing more hair for a few weeks does not necessarily mean we are going bald. Many of the follicles that have remained in the growth phase for months are now entering a shedding stage to make way for new hairs. Therefore, during September and part of autumn, it is normal to notice a greater shedding when brushing or washing the head.
That said, understanding that this is a normal process does not mean neglecting the haircare routine. In these weeks I tend to pay more attention to the scalp and opt for products aimed at strengthening the hair and improving its growth environment. Specific shampoos, daily-use serums, or treatments focused on hair density can help the hair look stronger and more cared for while it goes through this renewal period.
I have also learned that the most common mistake is to panic and expect immediate results. Hair operates at a different pace and consistency is usually more important than drastic routine changes. If shedding appears only for a few weeks and then stabilizes, it is most likely a seasonal episode. The situation changes when the loss lasts for months, areas appear less dense, or it is accompanied by other symptoms, at which point it is advisable to consult a specialist.
