Hair Breakage vs Hair Loss: How to Tell the Difference and What to Do About It

Hair Breakage vs Hair Loss: How to Tell the Difference and What to Do About It

Noticing more hair than usual on your pillow or in the shower drain? You’re not alone. Hair concerns like thinning, shedding, or snapping strands are extremely common; but the real question is, are you dealing with hair breakage or hair loss? Understanding the difference is the first step toward finding the right solution for your hair health.

Whether it's caused by stress, over-styling, or hormonal shifts, both breakage and hair loss can leave you feeling frustrated and unsure of what to do next. Thankfully, there’s a natural and effective way to support your strands - our CanGro Hair Growth Range is designed to help restore strength, volume, and shine from the inside out.

Why This Problem Matters

Hair is often tied to our identity, self-esteem, and confidence, so it’s no surprise that when it starts thinning or breaking, it can feel incredibly personal. You might start wearing hats more often, avoiding photos, or spending hours researching miracle products online.

The truth is, hair breakage and hair loss are two different issues and treating one like the other can sometimes do more harm than good. Breakage typically involves weakened, brittle hair snapping mid-shaft, while hair loss often includes shedding from the root, sometimes revealing thinning patches or a widening part.

Understanding what’s really going on with your hair means you can tailor your care routine to actually get results. Still unsure where to begin? This guide from CanGro will help you pick the right products based on your specific hair type and condition.
