Hair today Gone Tommorrow

Balding is not something anyone would look forward to. Even though we are unable to stop aging we can help ourselves when it comes to hair loss.

Our hair does get thinner as we age and more for some than others but with today's medications and creams etc we may be able to slow this down.

I have looked into many hair loss remedies and have found some that are better than others in how they say the can slow down hair loss and some even say they will help your existing hair grow more and stronger. I do not know about that but have heard of some of the good some of them do.

Solutions For People Who Are Thinning And Balding

By John Farikani

If your hair is thinning and balding there are many things you can do about it. The best thing you can do is start educating yourself about hair, and baldness, whether it is female pattern baldness for male pattern baldness. Having a better understanding about the topic will help you to deal with the problem and learn about the various treatments that can help you.

For one thing, you will learn why some people are destined to lose their hair and why others are not affected. Although we all know that genetics play a role in hair loss, we now understand that stress is also a culprit. But one of the major culprits in this ever-growing problem is DHT. That's right, it is a substance that is naturally produced in your body.

For those people who were thinning and balding, other than the aforementioned problems, there is a substance that your body is producing. That is causing this problem. This substance is known as DHT. Thankfully, the fact that it has been identified can help us to find the right solutions to our problems.

Because everyone is different, some solutions may not work for certain people, but may work very well in others. One product that you can use that has shown great results is called minoxidil. It is in the form of a solution that is applied directly onto the scalp, treating the follicles. It's purpose is to allow the blood supply to reach the follicles once again.

That is the entire problem with DHT: it makes blood supply difficult to get to the follicles. If there isn't enough blood supply, the follicles suffocate. This in turn causes them to weaken, hence producing unhealthy hair. Then, very thin hair is produced in the place of healthy thick hair.

If DHT is left alone, it will eventually choke all the follicles to the point of killing them off. That is how permanent balding happens in its permanent form. Unfortunately, there really is no going back when you come to this level.

You can stop this, but you must act. Along with the minoxidil solution, you should go further by focusing on your diet and other methods.

Doing so has left many people in a situation where they are more content than ever before. In using these recommendations, more people had more positive results than any other methods. They had ever tried. They have quickly resolved their problems of thinning and balding.
