Noticing more hair in your brush lately? Stress could be part of the reason. High levels of physical or emotional stress can disrupt your hair’s natural growth cycle and lead to increased shedding, sometimes weeks or months after the stressful event. The good news is that stress-related hair shedding is often temporary. Managing stress, getting proper nutrition, and addressing underlying health issues can help your hair return to its normal growth cycle over time.
