Does bleaching make your hair fall out?

I'm thinking of bleaching my hair for the first time, but my friends are telling me it will make my hair fall out. Is it true that bleaching can cause significant hair fall?

I completely panicked when chunks of hair came out in the shower after bleaching. But then I realized it was just hair breaking off, not falling from the roots, and a good protein mask fixed it.

Stress and poor diet cause more hair fall than temporary styling. Focus on keeping your health and blood pressure in check, and let the hair rest for a few months.

Haan na, hair damage toh hota hi hai bleaching se. Better avoid it if your hair is already very thin or weak, nahi toh bohot hair fall hoga.

I got my hair bleached twice in a month and it ruined my scalp health. It started falling out in clumps, so please don't do it repeatedly.

Listen, if you put harsh chemicals on your head, your hair will obviously get damaged and break. Don't do it DIY at home, get a professional to do it.

Chemical hair treatments weaken the hair shaft, which leads to physical breakage, not genetic hair loss. Just use a mild shampoo and avoid heat styling after bleaching.
