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.

Hormones and Hair Loss - 3 Easy Tips to Control Hair Loss

By Lucia Baker


Hair is something you don't think twice about until it starts falling out. Sometimes, that is how it goes when it comes to hair. Sometimes you do not notice how much you truly love your hair until it is gone. Apply these tips to help you prevent hair loss. Hair loss can also be caused by many temporary conditions, like anemia, stress, surgery, sickness and changes in weight. The temporary loss of hair typically starts 3 months after an event and typically occurs for roughly 3 months. Be aware of these concerns and use this understanding to your advantage. Consider using aloe vera to prevent hair loss. Many people find this to be effective. Take some Aloe and apply it to your head at bedtime. The massage will stimulate blood flow to your scalp and the aloe vera may prevent more loss of hair.

With FUE, the follicular units (naturally occurring hair groups in twos or threes) are removed using a metal instrument with sharp edges which has a hollow middle. Unlike FUT, where a strip of scalp is removed before each hair graft is extracted through a high-powered microscope, FUE has a more conservative approach resulting to less healing and a faster recovery time. Another thing that makes FUE popular is that it also provides a more natural-looking result.

Stay away from toxins and pollutants if you want to maintain full and beautiful hair. Harmful substances that find their way inside your body make you less healthy, and as your body struggles to stay healthy, this can have an adverse affect on your hair and contribute to its loss. For example, you do not want to be near unhealthy traffic fumes or whenever you are dealing with toxic chemicals, gloves should always be worn. Don't brush wet hair. If your hair is wet, it is more prone to getting damaged. You can being brushing when your hair is at least fifty percent dry for best results. You can damage your hair if you brush it when it is wet and make it split. Young men are often embarrassed by early hair loss, but it's actually quite common. If you are so afflicted, don't worry unduly. It has been known to strike even teenagers. Consider a shorter hair style if it starts to become noticeable. There are many people who are even attracted to this.

For the next two weeks after your surgery, you should avoid direct contact from the sun and protect your scalp with sunscreen or a hat. You should also sleep with your head elevated by propping some pillows to prevent swelling. By doing so, you also hasten the healing time. Strenuous exercises or contact sports should also be avoided for at least 6 months. Avoid bending over or lifting heavy objects because this can stress out your scalp which could lead to bleeding.

Eat fatty foods, but only natural ones! While dieting fanatics are right about avoiding fast food and other foods stuffed with crazy amounts of sugar, there are many types of foods high in fat that are great for you. Some simple foods that you would normally use are olive oil, egg yolks, and raw milk. These foods are in many recipes and are actually good for you. They can really help balance your hormones and promote more hair growth!

When we talk about the recovery time for this hair transplant technique, it is significantly lesser compared to FUT for the reason that it does not have a long linear wound. This is one of the major reasons why FUT would take some time to heal and has more risks for complications such as bleeding or infections.

Adequate amounts of vitamin C are pivotal in reducing the risk of hair loss. Vitamin C facilitates collagen production. Collagen is needed for healthy, living hair. If you feel that you are lacking vitamin C, eat more citrus fruits, or eat some vitamin C candy drops. One important aspect of stopping hair loss is knowing when it began. There are times when the start of hair loss can be attributed to the use of a certain product. By solving these problems or getting away from a certain product, your hair may start to grow again. When your hair is wet, don't brush it. Wait until you have towel dried your hair and then allowed it to dry the rest of the way naturally. If your hair is still wet, the follicle at the base of each hair is very vulnerable and subject to damage. When you brush wet hair, you can speed up the rate of your hair loss. It is very discouraging to see too much hair going down the drain. Finding a way to get hair back on your head can be priceless. Apply the tips offered here, and you will see positive changes to your scalp.
