Do you have a vitamin D deficiency? Is that why you have to sit in the sun? I used to bake myself in the sun between April and October, burn/tan, burn/tan. Then I spent years using tanning beds. Yikes. So for the past decade I have avoided the sun because of the danger and also because I don't want to fade my many tattoos. BUT some months ago it seemed that I was losing a lot of hair. It's thick, I had no bald spots, so I thought I was overreacting.


Med dude was refreshingly thorough, ran a bunch of blood work and, ha, my vitamin D was quite deficient. I began taking a D supplement and my hair stopped falling out. Even when I wash it I really don't lose any.
