Hereditary Hair Loss

October 14th, 2010

Hair loss can be caused due to a number of reasons and these include bad eating habits, aggressive medication, extreme diets and the knock-on effect of stress are all contributors for hair loss. However the most common cause of hair loss sadly is attributed to hereditary hair loss (Androgenetic Alopecia), which is transferred from one generation to the next and it usually occurs in a pattern. Men more than women suffer from heredity hair loss. While women will have thinner hair due to hair loss all over the head, men will lose hair on the crown and top.

It is either the mother or father’s side of the family that hereditary hair loss can be passed down and sometimes it will also skip generations. The hair growth is shortened due to a hormone known as dihydrotestosterone (DHT a by product of testosterone) interacting with vulnerable hair follicles. It is a good idea to research your family genetics and history of hair loss, if you want to ascertain if your hair follicles are sensitive. You will be able to get a rough guide about the hair loss pattern, which might occur.

Hair loss in some cases can occur quite early even though hair loss is normally associated with old age due to the ageing process. The faster you begin the treatment to control hair loss the better will be the results as hair loss is gradual in nature and the treatment will help slow down the hair loss progression.

Hereditary hair loss has no magic potion to stop it but there are a number of products, which will help slow down the process and these include Rogaine which contains minoxodil and Propecia which contains finasteride. Minoxodil, which is in lotion form has to be applied to the scalp twice daily and finasteride, which is available in pill form works by blocking the hormone DHT, which is responsible in weakening the follicles.

There are a number of other ways to treat hair loss and these include natural remedies, massaging the scalp and electronic pulses. In order to improve the pH balance of the scalp, Aloe Vera can be used and when henna is added to the conditioner it provides a healing effect on the hair follicles. If you want to stimulate the hair follicles, essential oils like lavender, bay, cedar and safflower can be used.

If you want to stimulate the follicles and the blood flow in the head and aid the fast penetration of the lotion or essential oil, you would need to massage the scalp for 15 minutes before applying the lotions or oils.

The sulfur from a raw onion rubbed onto the scalp has been favorably reported to reap great results and hypnosis is a much favored treatment for people looking to lower their stress levels which is also be a contributor to hair loss.

Men and women who feel less attractive because of their hair loss can regain their confidence by using hair transplants, wigs and hair extensions, which are readily available on the market. It is important to remember that even though you might suffer from hair loss, you can avail of various treatments like transplants, wearing a custom made wig or using natural remedies or simply reducing the stress of your life.

It would always be advisable to read all the labels thoroughly and consult the trichologist, technician or physician, irrespective of which method you choose as they will be able to guide you on the right path, which will help in halting hair loss and help you enjoy a total new look.

Tips For Healthy Hair

October 6th, 2010

When you leave the house in the morning you want to ensure that you feel and look great you will be aware that people are looking at your face and hair. Women class their hair as a very important part of them and how it looks reflects their personality and style. You will want to ensure that it looks healthy, clean and well kept every time you leave the house. Knowing that you have amazing looking hair will give you a boost in confidence and make you look and feel sexy.

You need not put in that much effort to achieve the look you want, as healthy hair is very easy to achieve. You should not wash your hair daily and must also ensure that you are using the right hair products for your hair type. If you wash the hair daily, it will strip your hair of all the vital vitamins and proteins and it could leave your hair dull and lifeless. The harsh chemicals in shampoos can strip your hair and damage it. Reading the labels of hair products is advised and you must carefully see what is included in them as there could be elements in them that could damage your hair.

Washing your hair is not necessary unless it looks and feels dirty and this could be every few days for some people. If you want the split ends to be removed and also encourage your hair to grow and remain healthy, you should cut it regularly. Your hair will be damaged if you do curling, straightening and blow drying, which are quite fashionable but should be stopped. Your hair will become very brittle and begin to fall, if you use these types of products. Try to comb it as little as possible when wet and you should allow your hair to dry naturally.

If you eat the correct things then your whole body will look healthier and your hair is no different, how your hair will grow is often determined by your diet. If you eat plenty of fruits and vegetables then the vitamins and nutrients are great for your hair. They will help your hair to be thicker, healthier and stronger it will also have a natural shine to it. An unhealthy lifestyle will make your hair look tired and damaged so you should try to be as healthy as possible.

Dying your hair could be avoided but if you do have to do so, you must try and find an alternative to those severe bleaches and chemicals. If you want your hair to look healthy and great, having your natural color is a great way to do so. It will continue to look and feel great, if you use the right products on your hair and treat it with respect. People should notice your hair not because of the damage you have caused to it but due to its healthy and fantastic looks. You will be amazed how great it looks with just some simple care and thought about what you use on your hair.
