Post-menopausal hormone imbalances
are the most common cause for female hair loss.
Women can suffer from hair loss genetically as well but often times, the biggest cause of hair loss and thinning hair occurs from menopause.
Other causes can be due to styling procedures and techniques. Chemicals from hair color and relaxers or perms can often lead to harmful effects if not properly applied. Moreover, tightly pulled on strands can literally pull locks out by their roots causing the hairline to diminish. This can happen if hair is pulled back too securely with a hair band, hair tie or even when being fashioned into braids.
