How to Prevent Hair Loss - Nine Easy Steps to Save Your Hair


By: Holly Franklin


As men start to mature unfortunately there are some physical changes. We start to get wrinkles and our bellies start to get bigger. One of the worst changes though and one that can keeps many a man awake at night is the loss of you hair.

Hair Loss actually begins for most men in their late 20's early 30's. The loss is most evident around the crown and temples. It is put down to a chemical called DHT. This hair loss can be stopped and even in some cases reversed with the use of certain hair technology systems (which we will come to later).
There are though a series of measure listed here that may seem obvious but if followed are easy steps that can naturally slow hair loss.

1. Don't pull you hair

By pulling ones hair you are placing strain on the hair follicle and may cause permanent damage which results in that particular follicle not being able to grow hair again.

2. Be careful not to rub you scalp against a towel to dry it.

The same reason as for not pulling your hair rubbing your scalp can damage a hair follicle. If possible pat away excess moisture and then leave the hair to dry naturally.

3. Don't use wigs (unless advised to by a doctor

The scalp needs to breathe for the hair follicles to work to their maximum effect. Using a wig suffocates the follicles and leads to damage which results in further thinning of the hair.

4. Use the correct shampoo according to your hair.

Follow the directions and use the right shampoo for your hair (i.e. for thin hair use a thin hair shampoo). Shampoos are formulated for a reason and giving your hair the most help possible is a good idea. Also never over wash your hair otherwise you deprive it of all its natural oils and it will lead to irreversible damage.

5. Don't use permanent or colorants.

Using any chemicals on the hair can lead to damage of the scalp and hair follicles and thus leading to these follicles no longer being able to support hair growth.

6. Always wash you hair thoroughly after using shampoo

Shampoo contains soap and chemicals and needs to be washed of thoroughly after use otherwise they will also ruin your scalp.

7. Don't eat greasy food.

Your hair is a good way to measure you health. In fact scientist now use one single strand of hair to test if a person has been taking drugs or test if a person maybe allergic to any foods. The old nugget "You are what you eat" is never more accurate than with your hair. Treat your body well and you hair will show the benefit.

8. Don't led your head get sunburn (Be careful of exposure

If you are going out in the sun be sure to use cream on your exposed scalp or use a hat so that you don't damage your scalp and follicles.

9. Wash your hair after bathing in the sea or in a chlorine swimming pool.

This is for similar reasons to making sure you wash you hair after shampoo. Washing your hair gets rid of the salt/chlorine making sure your that your hair and scalp are protected.

These simple steps will help any man to slow down the effects of hair loss. There are other systems out there that can help revive hair follicles so that it can support hair growth again. Most of these systems use laser technology such as the Androhair laser comb for example.

Bee Choo Herbal Hair Treatment

I went to Bee Choo Herbal Hair Treatment recently to treat my hair problems, I have been going there quite frequently to cure my hair loss problems. I was recommended to Bee Choo Herbal Hair Treatment by many netizens when I did an online search for a herbal treatment centre which provides good treatments at a most affordable and reasonable price. I was lucky for I found Bee Choo Herbal Hair Treatment! I did not choose other more popular Herbal Hair Treatment Centres that were so aggressively featured on the newspapers, were known for their hard-sell tactics to 'force' customers to sign packages as well as noted for a number of complaints for ineffective treatments by their customers,after spending more than $10,000. Bee Choo Herbal Hair Treatment uses top quality herbs for the herbal treatments and whats more, the prices are the cheapest I ever come across: $23 for my hair treatment at its Pasir Ris outlet, treatment of hair of other length and at other Bee Choo bra

Bawang Hair-strengthening Shampoo

Readers to my website should have known by now that I have just bought a shampoo called Pregaine. I have been using it for one week now and so far the results are quite okay: I experienced the less oily scalp which the manufacturers have claimed. But, I would want something that not only cleanses my scalp, I want something that could simulate hair growth too. This is where I train my eyes to a product which has been promoted quite recently in Singapore. Starring Jackie Chan, no I mean endorsed by Jackie Chan, this shampoo called Bawang Shampoo, is a all Chinese herbal shampoo which contains ginseng, said to simulate hair growth, by the sales woman but only for the hair strengthening type. I bought the 400 ml type today for $7.80 only at a store which sells things cheaply, and I used it during shampooing when bathing. It is just like normal shampoo.. except it is brown in colour. However on rinsing, the fluid turns white, just like normal shampoo. I checked the ing

Hair Loss- My True Story

My True story Like many of you, I am also a victim of hair loss ….. More and more Singaporean men are losing their ‘crowns of glory’ and this trend may be getting earlier and earlier.On the streets in these recent years, we may spot a relatively number of young men who are bald or balding. Compare this phenomenon to say ten years ago when this phenomenon is not commonly seen. This balding trend among Singaporean men is sparking an increasing proliferation of hair treatment centres. Hair treatment centres have practically sprung up all over the island with the likes of Beijing 101, Yunnan, Svenson, Bossin, etc.Causes of hair loss can be hereditary, or caused by stress, drug medications, poor diets, oily scalp etc and these causes manifest into the many forms or types of hair loss such as male pattern baldness, telogen effluvium, alopecia areata, etc. A normal human loses about 50 to 100 hairs per day and this loss is not alarming. However if more than this number is lost per day,

Best hair tonic

If you are looking for the best hair tonic, I have this saying I would like to share with you: “One man’s beef is another man’s poison”. What works for one may not work for you. It takes some trials, time and money to test the hair tonic you are interested out to see the results.

Hair Loss Forums

Hair Loss Forums may be good places for hair loss sufferers to learn more about hair loss, hair loss help and hair loss prevention. From today, I would start to introduce some hair loss forums in the internet which may be of great benefits to you. 

Nizoral Shampoo and Stieprox Shampoo

If you are suffering from itchy, oily and hair replete with dandruff and are looking for a shampoo which could combat such conditions, from my experience, I would like to recommend you the following two shampoos I have used before: a) Nizoral Shampoo (containing Ketoconazole, which is reported to slow down some balding problems too) b) Stieprox Shampoo

Nizoral Shampoos

In my earlier posts, I have written about the difficulty of finding a shampoo which could cure hair loss and as well as preventing oily scalp. Well that is one shampoo which may have slipped my mind then: Nizoral shampoo is a shampoo which is reputed to cure hair loss as well as prevent dandruff. I have used Nizoral shampoo before the other time, though to me at that time, my hair loss still persist, probably still due to the side effect of laser but I could say that Nizoral really delivers a clean solution to my dandruff solutions! We could use Nizoral shampoo twice per week, interspersed with a regular shampoo: this should have some results over sometime. I think I am going to buy Nizoral shampoo soon to be used in conjunction with Kanz shampoo. Hair treatment centres like Bee Choo work partly by removing the oil from the scalp. When the scalp is free of oil, less hair fall. Thus I always find myself experiencing more hair loss as more days passed after the last Bee Choo treat

Balding Woes

This morning, I woke up as usual to find tons of hairs over my pillow and on the floor! I am always sad, seems that everything I do to stem the hair loss, comes to a nought. Like time, I can now comb my hair to make it neater. Nowadays, without much combing, my hair will always look neat as there is really much less hair already. I could have very nice side-parting with still lots of hair as support in the past. Now I could not do much side-parting as the flesh of the scalp will show... the balding areas. Thus if you are observant enough, as people bald, they change the parting of their hair from middle, to side and then as the balding spots grow, more and more to the side towards the ears! I have observed Actor Qi Yu Wu's hair getting thinner and thinner.. I have observd his hair and thought that he is starting to bald. One see his appearance as quite clean-shaven in the little nonya.... is it to hide his balding problem or just to protray his role in the seri

System 4 Bio Botanical Hair Loss Shampoo

I am now using System 4 Bio Botanical Hair Loss Shampoo , I just bought the shampoo recently after a hair loss shampoo which I have been using, without much positive effect, ran out. System 4 Bio Botanical Hair Loss Shampoo is a product from Finland (the company is Sim Sensitive) which retails at Beauty Language stores at $25. The shampoo's description says that this System 4 Bio Botanical shampoo stimulates hair growth and helps prevent premature hair loss. The ingredients of this hair loss shampoo are mainly botanical extracts though I am happy to see Salicylic acid being featured as an ingredient too as I believe Salicylic acid has some properties to promote hair growth. I will not say whether System 4 Bio Botanical Hair Loss Shampoo works for me or not as it is now too early to tell. If you want to know, stay tuned to my blog. Meanwhile, do keep reading my other blog posts as I believe you will reap some good advice on how to prevent and treat hair loss!
