I noticed it while I was vacuuming and pointed it out to her but looked so much worse after I cleaned. What causes this?

Pile shading or pooling. If you look these terms up you'll find many theories. Nothing to do with cleaning though.

Careful about is how you work on deep nap carpet though. The lines in the carpet look like they're from a Grandi-Groomer, and if one is used too aggressively causes what's known as cornrowing. Those are your responsibility.

That is from the constant walking on it thousands of times a year and dragging a foot or a toe.
I see it all of the time and explain it to the mostly elderly people..............before I clean.

My theory for pooling is a relaxation of the backing over time and the face fibers must follow the shift in tension. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
