I'm 21 and have really thin amounts of hair especially when I put some gel in and you can always see my scalp. Does this mean I will loose hair faster than people with more dense hair? Thanks.Does thin amounts of hair at an early age sign for early hair loss?
One of my best friend's started loosing his hair last year. After many types of herbal, over the counter remedies, and who knows what from the internet, he ultimately chose to visit a hair loss center. Initially he was nervous to go becasue he was scared it would cost too much, but he learned a lot from the consultations. After 12 months he is finally starting to regrow some hair. Sorry I don't know more about his treatment, but maybe you could call a local clinic. http://www.hairlossandtreatment.comDoes thin amounts of hair at an early age sign for early hair loss?
It sounds like you are developing male pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia). You can read more about this at http://www.understandhairloss.org/androgenetic-alopecia.html or about hair loss in general at http://www.understandhairloss.org/. There are lots of ';un-proven'; methods to stop hair loss (a lot of them often marketed somewhat ';unethically';). Only two products have been approved by the FDA for treating hair loss, being
- Finasteride (product name: Propecia and Proscar)
- Minoxidil (product name: Rogaine, Regaine and others)
It is highly recommended to talk to your doctor prior to start any treatment.
Good luck
Here a few simple home remedies which can be tried at home to control hair fall.
1.Rinse your hair with a mix of apple cider vinegar and sage tea this helps hair grow..
2. A medicine rich in sulfur is also recommended as sulfur plays an important part in the structure of the hair.
3. Massage with olive oil before going to bed at night and next morning, wash off the hair gently..
4. To treat hair loss apply a little lemon juice with some black tea.Massage well and shampoo.
5. Beat two eggs,and add two tablespoons of water to it. Rinse hair and pour the egg mixture over the hair.Massage the scalp well and leave for 10 minutes.Then wash it.
it is perfectly possible to start losing hair at 21, some of my friends started earlier...if you can see your hair getting thinner it means you're probably already losing it... if you have relatives in your family who are bald then you are much more at risk. propecia and minoxidil are your answer although they aren't permanent solutions i'm afraid. I know it, I suffer from this terrible phenomenon and the hair is still getting slowly thinner as the years roll. It will slow it but not stop it.
