0:02Welcome to Chasing Life.

0:04What if I told you that our hair is more than what we see in the mirror?

0:09It's something that can actually tell us a lot about our health.

0:12You see, hair loss and hair changes aren't just cosmetic, they can reflect real shifts in hormones, stress, and nutrition, and even other underlying health conditions.

0:23Here's the thing.

0:24Most people naturally shed about 50 to 100 hairs a day.

0:28But sudden thinning, brittleness, graying, that can feel really alarming.

0:33And yet sometimes it's just completely normal.

0:37So the question then is, how do you know what hair changes are red flags?

0:42What's part of normal life?

0:44And what really does work if you want healthier hair, hair that is thicker and darker?

0:49What does healthy hair really mean?

0:51Today I'm talking with Dr.

0:52Mary Ann Makritis Senna.

0:54She's a board-certified dermatologist and associate professor at Harvard Medical School who specializes in hair and scalp health.
