Stop Hair Loss:
Don’t have Hair-Today-Gone-Tomorrow DaysHair growth occurs in cycles.
Actually, each strand grows for a period of two to six years – pretty
amazing, actually. During this 6 years, hair will grow about half an
inch a month, so any terrible haircut will soon be a thing of the past.
After its growth period, a strand of hair will go dormant and
eventually die, as it is pushed out by the growth of a replacement from
the hair follicle. Under normal conditions, 90 per cent or your hair is
in the growth period, and only 10 per cent is dormant or dying. So,
you should lose about 100-150 strands a day – no problem!If you are
experiencing greater than normal hair loss, take a look at several
things. It is easier to diagnose and correct now than to wait until it
is horribly noticeable by others and embarrassing to you..
Things to do :
Check your diet.
If you are not eating a balanced diet, your entire body will be
affected, and your hair is a part of your body. Certain proteins,
minerals, and oils are critical for normal hair health
Check your stress levels Anxiety and
stress are common causes of hair loss. Some stress cannot be avoided –
death of a loved one, divorce, loss of job, financial worries – but you
can take steps to reduce their affect on your body. One of these is
regular exercise. As well, you need to develop relaxation techniques,
such as breathing therapy, Yoga, or meditation. Whatever works for you,
increase it!3.
Hair loss can be a symptom of a disease :
Lupus and Diabetes are two common causes. When hair loss appears to
have no other cause, you need to check with your doctor. Diabetes and
Lupus are more dangerous than the hair loss they cause.
How about mom and dad?
Hair loss, particularly pattern hair loss, is partially a result of
heredity, and heredity from both sides. Unfortunately, this one can’t
be reversed
Fungal infections of the scalp can cause hair loss.
Usually, you will see the signs of these on your scalp. Have them
diagnosed and get them treated!6. Harsh shampoos can cause increased
hair loss. There is an ingredient in shampoo which causes it to lather –
surfactant. Too much of this can cause itchy, dry, and scaly scalps,
and those conditions can cause hair loss.
Other hair treatments will increase hair loss.
Frequent dyes, perms, and dry heat (blow dryers and curling irons) can
damage hair. Your follicles are still operating well, but your live
hair is fried and falling out.If you find that you are doing everything
right and have no diseases or scalp conditions, you will want to try
other remedies, which fall into three categories
Medicines developed specifically for hair loss. There are a multitude of creams,
pills, and ointments available to try. Everyone is different and what
works for one will not necessarily work for you. You will need to
experiment to find one that seems to work best for you.
Natural
remedies are available as well. Most of these include essential oils,
that is, concentrated oils from specific plants. Provillus is a very
good example of this method of hair loss treatment. Provillus is an oral
supplement, which works to block DHT, a form of testosterone that is
responsible for 95 percent of hair loss. It also works to stimulate the
scalp and bring dead follicles back to life. You can use Provillus as a
preventative tool, starting the program before hair loss becomes severe,
or you can use it after DHT has already begun to take hold of your hair
and scalp. You can get it at
Surgery : There are a wide variety of
procedures available to you, however, they are quite costly. Any type
of permanent hair replacement will take several months, several visits,
and several trips to your bank account. Research your options, and get
several consultations before a final decision.Try the least expensive
and lifestyle change options first. If they work, you have saved
yourself time and money. But don’t sit on the situation too long – hair
loss can be a symptom of something more serious.
