Hair will grow and fall off and grow back again. What is the time between two fall offs? Is it 2 months, 6 months, 12 months, or others?

Body hair will grow for three to six months, at a rate of about a third of a millimeter a day, then become dormant. When the hair follicle enters a new growth stage, the new hair will push out the old one. I expect there is some variation in how long chest hair lasts for any individual, but it should be within this range. Those whose chest hair grows longer may have a longer hair growth cycle.

I would say anywhere from 6-12 months... it depends on the person... hopefully you're a dude.

It probably varies based on the person's genetics, nutrition, and environment.
Personally, I don't think any hair has fallen off yet on its on for me.
