The Truth About Midlife Hair Loss (And How to Get Healthier, Stronger Hair)

If you’ve noticed more hair in your brush, on your pillow, or in the shower drain lately, you’re not alone. Midlife hair loss is incredibly common, but that doesn’t make it any less frustrating.

I’ve certainly had this experience! I’ve noticed thinning patches along my part, and lots of hair in the shower drain…and I’m not happy about it! So I’ve been searching and searching for a way to stop hair loss in it’s tracks.

The good news? I’m happy to report that you don’t have to accept thinning, weak, or lifeless hair as just another part of aging. Understanding what’s happening to your hair—and how to nourish it from the inside out—can make all the difference.

Why Does Hair Loss Happen in Midlife?

As we get older, our bodies go through hormonal shifts, changes in metabolism, and even increased stress levels—all of which can impact hair growth. Here are some of the most common culprits:

🔸 Hormonal Changes – Declining estrogen levels can make hair follicles more sensitive to androgens (male hormones), leading to thinner, weaker strands.

🔸 Stress & Cortisol – Chronic stress and high cortisol levels can push hair follicles into a resting phase, causing increased shedding.

🔸 Nutrient Deficiencies – If your body isn’t absorbing essential vitamins and minerals (like biotin, zinc, and B vitamins), your hair may struggle to grow.

🔸 Scalp Health & Microbiome – Just like your gut has a microbiome, your scalp does too! A disrupted scalp microbiome can lead to dryness, irritation, and weaker hair growth.

The Secret to Stronger, Healthier Hair? It Starts at the Root.

Traditional hair products often focus on quick fixes—like coating strands with silicone to create the illusion of shine. But true hair health begins at the scalp. That’s where The Rootist comes in.
