Luckily, this is possible. If you follow the suggestions outlined in the following article, it’s possible to stop hair thinning, and maybe even re-grow some.
To prevent loss of hair, start putting more protein in your diet. Protein is what the hair is made out of. Protein can be found in foodstuffs, such as fish, eggs, red meat and poultry. If you prefer not to eat meats, you can eat lentils and kidney beans for protein instead. Ingesting protein regularly can help you keep a full head of hair.
Taking care of yourself is even more important if you come down with an illness. When you do not follow the instructions for any medications that are prescribed, or don’t follow other instructions from your medical provider, your body is forced into working harder so it can heal and continue working properly. Your hair follicles may not be able to get the energy they need to maintain regular growth when your body is repairing after an illness. Blading will follow.
Some hair styles can cause blading. Avoid pulling hair too tight, and do not keep it tied in rubber bands or other holders for long amounts of time. Although hair products are much better than they used to be, they can still damage you hair. If you pull your hair into a tight ponytail it can damage hair and the follicles.
Wet Hair
Don’t brush wet hair. It is easy to damage wet hair. Wait until when your hair is dried to brush it, you can brush dry hair much easier than wet. If you brush your hair when it’s wet, you can pull on it and cause split ends.
Avoid areas with high air pollution to avoid hair thinning. Research has shown that men who live in polluted neighborhoods may experience hair thinning, because pollutants enter their bloodstream and damages the hair.
For men that suffer excessive hair thinning, liquid saw palmetto is a good non-prescription treatment to try. Saw palmetto extract will lower the levels of DHT, the male hormone that is believed to cause loss of hair. Juice the fruit and carefully apply the extracted juice to your scalp and hair.
If your hair is wet, don’t brush it. Towel dry your hair, then let it finish drying naturally before brushing. When wet, the human hair is extremely vulnerable and any damage is amplified much more than normal. Your hair will be more likely to fall out prematurely if you are in the habit of brushing it while it is still wet.
For many people, it is possible to get some of that lost hair back. Make sure that you implement this information correctly so that you can find a solution to your hair thinning.
