What do I do for an abnormal amount of hair loss?
Thursday, August 6th, 2009Meg W asked:
I’ve always had very thick hair, thank goodness. I’ve let my hair grow and have it colored/highlighted about every 5-6 weeks, but I’ve done that for years. I can run my hand through my hair and come up with 20 to 50 hairs in my fingers and I’m not pulling hard. My brush is full after brushing my hair once. When I would pull my hair back in a ponytail it was very thick and lots to work with, but now it’s only about 3/4 inch in diameter. I don’t pull it back anymore for fear that that is one of the problems. I am not taking any new medication and there doesn’t seem to be a logical reason for the hair loss. My mother said it was “seasonal shedding,” but I’ve never had it like this ever! I have it trimmed just a little each time to prevent split ends damaging my hair. Can anyone help? Any suggestions? I would appreciate any reasonable solution.

my hair is starting to fall out?
Monday, July 27th, 2009kim r asked:
Hi my hair is starting to fall out… and i’ve always had naturally thick hair. I bleached it paritally for over 2 years professionally and never noticed any problems other than ordinary hair loss. Then 2 years ago I struggled with an eating disorder also never really noticed too much hair loss. Just about 8 months ago my mother passed away i had been taking care of her in my home and my hairdresser died my blond hair brunette (again all professionally) and about 3-4 months later i noticed it falling out. Is this most likely caused by stress, dying or diet (i’ve gained weight back since those two years) I am now using Nixon scalp treatment is there anything else i can do to make sure i don’t go bald?

Hair Loss Treatment
Thursday, July 16th, 2009Patricia Hammond asked:
Many people suffer from hereditary loss of hair. For men, the abnormality is called Androgenetic Alopecia or male pattern baldness, which is implicated in 95% of hair loss cases. This type of hair loss is caused by an increase in dihydrotestostrone (DHT), a direct component of testosterone. While this type of hair loss is inevitable, it can be slowed using hair loss treatment for man and other various treatments.
Since the cause of male pattern baldness is caused by a rise in DHT, the most effective hair loss treatment for man is the one with that focuses on blocking the build up of DHT in the body. One such medication for male hair loss is finasteride. Finasteride is a hair loss treatment for man that works by preventing certain enzymes from converting testosterone into DHT.
Minoxidil is one of the most popular hair loss treatment for man. It is widely regarded as effective in about 25% of men suffering from baldness on the crown. It is applied twice a day in cream form. However, it is effective only when it is continuously used.
Surgery is one other hair loss treatment for man. Although the surgical procedures have undergone significant improvements, the effects are not evident until after several months have passed since surgery. In hair transplants, very tiny plugs of hair are taken from the side or back of the scalp, which are then transplanted onto bald spots.
Scalp massage is a traditional hair loss treatment for man. Massaging the scalp stimulates hair follicles and unclogs blocked oil glands in the scalp. It also encourages growth of healthier hair and scalp.
Tissue expansion is another type of hair loss treatment for man. In this procedure, tiny balloons are placed under the scalp between those areas with thick hair. Over a number of months, these balloons are gradually inflated.
Another hair loss treatment for man is to have proper diet as this is extremely important in hair loss prevention. What you are feeding your body will influence the different areas of system function. If you have an unhealthy diet, you have higher chances of developing hair loss. To prevent such thing from happening, be sure that you eat whole, natural foods as these will guarantee permanent good health. Make sure that your diet consists of whole grains, fresh fruits and lean meats. Protect your system by avoiding or cutting down on excessive caffeine, alcohol, tobacco products and highly processed foods.
Vitamins are another option for hair loss treatment for man. Taking vitamins that help prevent hair from thinning is another option for men who are suffering from baldness. These types of vitamins are valuable in aiding thinning hair and in the promotion of quick growth of healthy hair. These vitamins are typically a combination of amino acids, biotin, zinc, magnesium and vitamins B6.
Many who resort to this type of hair loss treatment for man report that these specific vitamins have produced positive results and that they already have thicker, shiny and healthier hair. If you want, you can take vitamins that are solely for balding and hair loss.
