Is Hair Loss Every 3-4 Days Normal After Resuming Minoxidil?

[Xavier_C]

took dut for almost 2 years and paused it for 1 more year. I saw that my hair was starting to fall out in cornrows and I decided to take it back. Since September 18 I have been on 3 days a week 0.5. I want to know if the amount that falls out when I clean my hair every 3/4 days is normal. I have to say that if I shake my head 3/4 hairs can easily fall out, maybe because | don’t touch my hair much during the day.

I will post photos from different days after collecting the hair in the shower.

Thank you

Looks like the amount of hair you’re seeing is likely normal, especially with washing every few days. Hair loss can increase after stopping min and starting again, due to the shedding phase. If you’re styling tightly, it might lead to traction alopecia. Keep an eye on it and see how your shedding changes over the next few weeks. More on treatment can be found in The Beginner’s Guide.
