Hair loss on women is seen in different ways. With the Ludwig Classification, hair loss on women is classified as follows:

Type 1 : As hair loss is low, shedding is barely noticeable. Most shedding occurs at the top and front of the head.
Type 2 : A hair transplant can be performed at this stage according to the intensity of the shedding and the size of the affected area.
Type 3 : The hair is thin and the areas where shedding occurs can be clearly identified at this stage. The shedding may increase over time and spread to all areas of the head.
