I colored my hair deep deep red before, but that was back when my hair was alot lighter at the time..will it not show up because my hair is dark brown now? Has anyone ever done that before?
itll show up but not very well, you will see it best in the sun light, probably wont be able to tell indoors
genetic hairloss runs in my father's side of the family (father/uncle) so I decided to seek a hair restoration surgeon to check the health of my hair. Aside from a small recession in the front, I still have a full head of hair, however, this doctor used some microscope to check my scalp and it showed some of the hairs were miniaturizing. He prescribed some drug called finasturide 5mg and said it was probably genetic loss since I told him it ran in my dad's family. I look in the mirror and I still have a full head of hair, so I don't think I buy into what this doctor says. My dermatologist says as we age, we all miniaturize, it is just part of getting older and if I don't show any visible signs I should be ok. I don't think I'm going to take this medication for life per that hair surgeon's advice just because I have a full of head of hair right now. What do you think?
Research and my experience show that hair loss is inherited from the mothers side of the family.
Regardless, if you have a full head of hair, then the hair loss in front could be caused by reasons other than heredity.
Wearing a tight cap or headband, using tons of hairspray on your bangs and combing through it without washing the spray off first could cause breakage. Using a hair dryer close to your head could cause the hair to burn and frizz up causing miniaturizing. If this hair is burned then you are also burning your scalp so pl keep the dryer no less than 6 inches away from your scalp.
If you use a curling or straightening iron, you could be doing the same thing-using it too close to the scalp. If you damage or burn your scalp nothing you do to restore your hair will make it grow through a burned scalp.
Here are some tips that could help:
Always wash your hair spray off before combing through it.
Never battle with your hair tangles. It causes breakage. Hair stretches about 2 1/2 times its length when it is wet and when you stretch it to remove the tangles, that becomes the weakest point which at first frizzes then breaks off causing split ends.
Do not use aerosol hair sprays, They contain wax and wax builds up and causes breakage. Use a pump spray if you have to.
We all lose thousands of hairs each week, which always grow back but your dermatologist is right in that it does decrease as we age.
If your hair loss is hereditary, you seem comfortable with it right now. But down the road, if it bothers you, there are surgeons out there who can do wonders with lasers, plugs or scalp grafts.
It is costly, but saves a lot in peace of mind. I have seen miracle hair replacement surgeries and if anyone can afford it, I would suggest they go for it.

Examining hair on the scalp for miniaturization is called densitometry and is a sensitive indicator of early hair loss. Although one normally has vellus hair (very fine hair) on the top of their scalp, when a doctor sees a significant number of hairs of varying diameters (miniaturized hairs), it is a relatively diagnostic sign of early balding. If you have recession at the temples, this would be another sign of genetic hair loss.
Putting this aside, once you begin taking finasteride (Propecia) you must continue it indefinitely so I would not start unless you were sure you wanted to be on it long-term.
If you start to experience decreased hair volume overall, in addition to the receded temples, that might be a better time to start the medication. If you are only concerned about future loss, I would not use the medication now regardless of the densitometry reading. As a final comment, the starting dose of finasteride is 1mg a day, not 5mg.
Hope this information is helpful.
Sincerely,
Dr. Bernstein

He is the one that ties the girl's hair in a knot to show how strong it is. He also pops her hair with a needle in the body and volume ad, and turns the channel in the sleek and smooth ad. Tell his name if you know who he is, if he is an actor/model in anything else I would totally watch anything he was in!

go to google and click on pics and then search some fav stars that have cute hair... then print it out and go to the slon... good luck!!!
I'm losing quite a bit of hair, had it cut shorter, made it a bit better, I'm 55, what about hormones? The doc just looked and said that I had my roots showing so new hair was growing in..its stress. What about thyroid? Also I started Lipitor in February.But I have had TONS of STRESS in my life. Any ideas??? *Thanks*
Yeah, get a new doctor. Did he even consider that it might be hormones or your medications? My hair falls out seasonally. But I'm also on meds and hormone pill, my thyroid hasen't worked in years. If the problem persists go back and see him and insist that he listens to your concerns and checks the proper things. Maybe you need to have some blood taken so your thyroid can be checked. It took me three years to get a doctor who finally checked my thyroid and it took another three years to get my dosage of hormone pill right.
it can be all of those things plus genetics.
Yes. Sadly true.
Take care of your diet. Need proteins.
Just relax. Give yourself scalp massages with warm olive oil. Will help growth and relax to.
Ask a friend, neighbor , family, hubby, Bf to do it ; Once a week even better. Avoid chemicals. Wrap a warm towel after that.
Wash after an hour or more.
Also, when hair is dirty, it falls .
Give some of those traditional 100 strokes. Like at least 25-30.
Helps.
Wish u best.
If you don't believe what your doctor is telling you find another one. The issues you brought up are very good to be asking your doctor. Getting health advice from any joe is not safe and will just add to the stress you already have.
stress does make your hair fall out
yes
yeh it could be any of them or alipiaca ... its a skin and hair illness and there are different types , or it could just be your age ... as you get older the hairs stop growing and still fall out . i say see a different doctor or go and ask your doctor more questions .
Yes, hormones ( why your hair falls out when pregnant), medications, and body problems ( your thyroid), and stress play a big role in hair loss and weakness of your nails. Any medications you may be taking will effect your hair as well. I would suggest taking a good vitamin for protein and using a shampoo such as Nioxin. It is great for fine and thinning hair and helps promote growth at the scalp. Yes, as long as your hair follicle is still open you will still grow hair. Short hair is the best way to go for now as it will make your hair appear thicker so it sounds like you are doing the right thing there. Best of luck to you.
As long as you are taking good care of your hair, I really wouldn't worry about coloring it. If you are worried about the damage of color use a semi-premanent color. Redken's ( professionally done) semi-premanent line of color actually helps to strengthen you hair. A thing with color you may want to watch out for is the time it takes to color and how it takes the color becuase along with the hair loss this can be effected as well.
Look at your parents. Question solved.
