Hair Loss and Self Esteem

Kenny English08 Jun, 2024Health

Hair has an interesting history in storytelling. Samson of the Old Testament lost his physical strength when Delilah cut his hair. In modern times, Homer Simpson gained vocational strength when a fictional hair restoration formula gave him hair ? only to lose it when the solution was gone.

Long Hair and Hair Loss

Kenny English08 Jun, 2024Health

Popular entertainers such as Cher and Beyonce, while from different generations, are both known for extravagantly long hair and hair changes within performances that almost certainly involve wearing wigs. Is it possible that they suffer from hair thinning, perhaps due to the stresses of show business and exceptional amounts of coloring, treatments, and other styling methods?

Are Dandruff and Hair Loss Related?

Kenny English02 May, 2024Health

Dandruff can be a benign and an easily treatable condition. But flaking and itching can result from with many other scalp conditions and cause hair loss. These scalp conditions cannot usually be solved at the local hair loss treatment clinic that specializes in men?s and womens hair loss solutions or hair loss surgery for men. Begin with your family physician or dermatologist.

What is Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia?

Kenny English02 May, 2024Health

The perception is that younger people experience scarring alopecia more than their parents did at the same age. That may be true, but the data is lacking. This condition is considered a medical issue, initially requiring the attention of a physician or dermatologist for reasons explained below.

Millennials, Gen Z and Hair Loss

It is vital to understand there are basically three factors affecting most hair loss, those being genetics, lifestyle habits, and environment. The second category, lifestyle, requires a further breakdown as it encompasses many things including diet, exercise, mental health, and grooming habits. Also, the physical environment (air quality in particular) can affect hair, skin, and scalp health. Genetics are unchangeable, of course. And they are complex ? it?s not so simple as a father or maternal grandfather being bald that determines a son?s hair loss. Nor, for that matter, does a daughter have alopecia because her mother did. It?s an interplay of the genetics from both the maternal and paternal lines.

Excessive Heat and Hair Loss

For those who work strenuously in high temperature conditions, especially where the air is humid, excessive sweat and dirt can lead to a different set of problems. This provides a breeding ground for bacteria and fungi, which then causes scalp irritation, fungal infections, and inflammation of the hair follicles, otherwise known as folliculitis. Left untreated, folliculitis in severe cases can lead to hair loss in affected areas. This is because chronic inflammation can damage hair follicles and disrupt the normal growth phases. The condition is then referred to as scarring alopecia and it can be permanent. Cyclists in particular, as well as any athletes who wear headgear in their sports, should be on the lookout for folliculitis. This can be exacerbated by the helmet trapping heat and moisture, with the added problems of friction from the helmet and bacterial growth in the padding that has contact with the scalp.

Alcohol and Hair Loss

Any type of body irritant (excessive sunshine, chemicals, radiation, etc.) can adversely impact all parts of the body, including your unnecessary hair follicles. The hormones ? changing levels of DHT (derived from testosterone) in particular ? can cause miniaturization of hair follicles, shortened hair growth cycles, and inflammation. None of this promotes thick, healthy hair. It?s important to realize this is not what happens from that glass of wine with dinner, the single artisanal bourbon, or one (perhaps two) mugs of a finely-crafted IPA. These effects are from excessive drinking, and the longer one does it the greater (worse) the effects.

Sugar and Hair Loss

The science on our intestinal biotas, the ecosystem of bacteria, archaea, fungi, and viruses that live in and are beneficial to our digestive tracts. These microbiota do us a favor, breaking down fiber from fruits and vegetables and excreting vital nutrients that are absorbed through the lower intestines into the bloodstream. But the presence of too much sugar can hurt these beneficial bugs in our system and instead feed pathogenic (bad) bacteria. This basically means the body is getting fewer of the nutrients it needs. Lots of things can hurt the circulatory system, including obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. Sugar consumption in excess is associated with all three of these conditions. With poor circulation, hair roots aren?t being fed the nutrients they need.

Choosing a Hair Transplant Doctor

Kenny English25 Oct, 2023Other

According to the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery (ISHRS), some hair restoration clinics will use unlicensed technicians to perform ?substantial aspects of hair restoration surgery.? The organization warns that only licensed and properly trained physicians do preoperative diagnostic evaluations and consultations, plan the surgery, design the surgery, harvest the hair, and manage all medical issues post-surgery. While robotics are now being employed in many clinics, the traditional method of surgery involves tedious but essential skills using tiny instruments to perform intricate maneuvers.

Donating Your Hair

Kenny English25 Oct, 2023Other

Some organizations do sell some of the donated hair. This is in part the result of donations that arrive from many sources ? individuals, hair salons, grassroots groups hosting ?cut your hair? events in honor of someone undergoing chemotherapy treatments, etc. ? and many of those sources send locks that cannot be used in hair systems (i.e., those failing the criterion listed above). Proceeds from those sales help with expenses associated with manufacturing the wigs that are used, as well as organizations? administrative expenses.
