How many hairs should come out in the shower - 12 years on Fin

[pkipling]

It also depends on how often you wash your hair. If you wash it every day, you'll see a more consistent amount of hairs each time you shower. If you go 2-3 days without washing your hair however, you'll see a whole lot more hair when you finally do get around to washing it. It's not that you're losing more - it's just the accumulative hairs that hadn't fallen from your head yet since you hadn't given it a wash. For example, if you normally see maybe 10 or so hairs when you wash your hair and then go 3 days without washing it, you may notice 30 or so in your hands when you do. This can can obviously be alarming, but totally normal.
