Please don't worry!!!
I've worked in the hair industry for several years and have had hundreds of people ask me this question.
Avergae hair loss is VERY normal. Especially for a 13 year old girl who is probably going through hormonal changes.
You have to understand that the avergae person loses up to about 100 hair a day. This is completely normal.
Seeing hair in the shower drain and on your clothes is normal, so don't let it stress you because stress actually causes more hair loss.
If you feel that you are losing way over 100 hairs a day then you should go see a doctor.
But I wouldn't worry about it because I have known hundreds of girls and women who overly worry about this.
It's not heat, its not any styling products, its natural.

Truly speaking hair loss is a very common problem that most of the people nowadays suffer from. There are several reasons for that. Might be it gets dirty very frequently, might be there are too much dandruff in your hair, or any other problem. There are several treatments no doubt but I would suggest you to consult a hair or skin specialist in this case. You can try a treatment. Make a pack with Amla, shikakai, shoeflower and tulsi leaves. Grind them all....apply thrice a weak...keep it in your head for half an hour...and use very light shmapoos to wash it off. It is really a very good pack to resist ordinary hair fall. But if it doesn't work and if you experience continuous hair fall then it is best to take no risk and consult a specialist.

You seem to be very young for your hair to fall out. I suggest that you have your mother take you to the doctor. They will have at least a better idea to what's going on. It could be a number of things.

your hair is shedding...its very normal for your hair to shed atleast 100 strands a day...maybe you notice it more because your hair is longer...but our hair sheds just like a cat or a dog...don't worry about it:)
