Hair loss and dieting

I have been very stressed out for some time now and have been suffering a lot of hair loss.  However, I notice that it is falling out even more now that I've been dieting for a month.  Has anyone had this experience?

I just recently read an article on it.  Can't remember where, sadly.  It seems that if you start losing weight quickly, you can lose hair, so it's not abnormal.  If you're concerned, though, you might want to see a doctor.

It could be due to protein loss, I have a friend who went vegetarian, until she found out that she needed to eat seafood to have enough protein. She found that out because her hair was falling out like crazy!

that's been happening to me as well. i have curly hair and obviously i shed some hair when i wash it every other day or so. but lately it's been shedding crazy. it's like whole botches are coming off my scalps..
