I first started to notice my hair loss when I was about 24 years old, I'm now 36 and it seems like the older I get the more I lose especally when I wash my hair. I had always heard tho, that it was normal to lose up to 100 hairs a day. Does anyone know the right amount?

You might consider any cosmetic treatments (e.g. blow drying, hair spraying, styling, etc.) that you give your hair as a result of the loss.
