To help understand, your hair goes through 3 phases of which every hair on your head is always in one of these phases, but they're not all in the same phase at once. (Essentially, that's why all your hair doesn't shed at the same time.)

1.     Anagen Phase - The active hair growth phase, when new hair is produced. It usually lasts about four years, with an average growth of one centimetre (.4 inches) per month.

2.     Catagen Phase - A transitional cycle - the hair maintenance phase - when the hair stops growing; it lasts up to about four weeks.

3.     Telogen Phase - It is during this phase that the hair strand is dormant; the hair shaft loosens, that's when hair sheds.

Good hair care begins with the simplest things, from good hydration to a diet rich in nutrients such as proteins, zinc and iron, which are essential for good hair health.

You can also add an extra boost to a healthy diet during this time of increased hair loss with hair growth supplements specifically created to help with this issue.

Other expert tips include staying away from extremely tight hairstyles - let the hair "breathe" after summer by wearing it out or opting for looser hair looks. Also, try and reduce the use of heat on your hair, as these types of hair tools have been shown to have a direct effect on hair health, leaving it drier, more vulnerable and brittle.
