Hair loss is a serious problem that everyone is facing. Many people almost randomly use some anti-hair loss products, without proper questioning, after discovering that they are facing a hair loss problem. This is definitely wrong.

Everyone knows that when you are sick, you need to “prescribe the right medicine”. In fact, hair loss is also a kind of disease, and its causes are also different, so, first, you must figure out why you are losing your hair before treating hair loss.

Otherwise, you will never be able to effectively treat hair loss, and in the end, you can only witness your hair keeping leaving you…

So, what are the common causes of hair loss?

Androgenetic(seborrheic alopecia)
Among many people with hair loss, hair loss in men is more frequent than in female hair loss. The biggest reason is that in male cases, a large proportion of people have hair loss caused by excessive secretion of male hormones, which is what we often call seborrheic alopecia.

This type of hair loss is hereditary and generally appears from the beginning of puberty. The rate of hair loss also increases with age.

It is reported that approximately 25 percent of men who have hereditary male pattern baldness start losing their hair before the age of 21. By the age of 35, approximately 66 percent will have experienced some degree of hair loss. By the age of 50, approximately 85 percent will have significantly thinner hair.

Poor or excessive scalp hygiene
Many people only wash their hair and ignore the scalp when washing their hair. Scalp hygiene is really important and necessary.

Our scalp accumulates a lot of dust, oil, and metabolites secreted by the scalp every day, so if we do not pay attention to cleansing, the accumulation of the scalp will increase, which will lead to clogged hair follicles and hair loss.

Of course, excessive cleaning can also cause hair loss, because excessive cleaning will destroy the original balanced hair growth environment, and may also stimulate the secretion of sebum, which can lead to hair loss in severe cases!

Frequent blow dry, perm, and dyeing
Wrong use of the blower will burn your hair and cause the hair to fall. So if you use the blower frequently to blow your hair, try to use a low setting to avoid damaging your hair.

In addition, perm and dyed hair can damage the hair severely. At most twice a year is enough, otherwise, the hair cannot recovered after the damage. Gradually, it will also cause the hair to become dry and frizzy, causing severe hair loss!

Stay up late, stresses
Needless to say, you must have heard of this many times.

Staying up late will increase the secretion of cortisol, which can increase the secretion of oil in the hair follicles, and eventually lead to seborrheic alopecia;

People who are stressed are prone to depression, mental anxiety, nervousness, and other sub-health states, which are not conducive to hair growth, and severe hair loss will occur.

The above are a couple of major causes of hair loss. Have you figured out why you are losing your hair?

If the hair loss is severe (particularly hereditary hair loss), do not bother to find ways to prevent it. It would be better to save some money and find something else that could help.

Commonly, there are four ways to save hair loss that are generally used by the public, and there is always one that suits you.

Anti-hair loss shampoo
Shampoo is the first product that every hair loss patient thinks of, especially ginger shampoo, which is almost legendary.

However, no matter if it is ginger bought in the vegetable market, ginger-flavored shampoo, or shampoo containing ginger, none of them has the effect of preventing hair loss and growth.

On the contrary, it has the effect of hair removal.

Don’t believe it? This has been confirmed by dermatologist’s study. Find in “6-Gingerol inhibits hair shaft growth in cultured human hair follicles and modulates hair growth in mice”.
6-gingerol, rather than being a hair growth stimulating drug, is a potential hair growth-suppressive drug, i.e. for hair removal.

Of course, besides ginger shampoo, other shampoos are said to have the effect of preventing hair loss and stimulating hair growth. That’s all for now. We don’t know until we try.

Advantages: low cost and easy to buy.

Disadvantages:

1. There is no medical evidence to prove that anti-hair loss shampoo can prevent hair loss and stimulate hair growth, most of which are just gimmicks played by the business.
2. Some minerals in the anti-hair loss shampoo may worsen hair loss

Medication
When the shampoo does not work, most people think of using drugs to treat hair loss. The commonly used drugs to treat hair loss are minoxidil and finasteride.

However, both of these drugs need to be applied continuously. Once stopped, hair loss will continue. Of course, as getting older, androgens in the body continue to decline and no longer affect the hair, and the drug can also be stopped.

Advantages: Early treatment with drugs in a timely manner can improve hair loss levels, but is not sustainable.

Disadvantages:
1. Medications are no longer efficient for people with severe hair loss
2. All medicines have side effects. Excessive use not only has no appreciable effect but also damages the body.

Hair transplant
The hair transplant industry has shown a blowout trend in recent years. Many people are facing severe hair loss problems. After trying various methods that don’t work, they will consider hair transplants.

But you really have to think twice about a hair transplant.

Advantages: painless transplantation can be achieved; if successful, you can have thick hair again.

Disadvantages:
1. The cost is too high. The hair transplant surgeries charge by hair follicles. It can cost at least thousands of dollars to get it down.
2. It has a series of side effects (such as folliculitis, complete hair necrosis, etc.), and it requests continuous implant.
3. The survival rate of transplanted hair is low, and hair loss may still occur again after success.
4. The transplanted hair follicles no longer grow hair, which is the same as the case of “rob Peter to pay Paul.”

Hair System
Like hair transplants, the wig industry has developed rapidly in recent years and even has a faint trend of overshadowing hair transplants. Many celebrities, including Robert Pattinson, John Travolta, Jason Alexander, etc., have disclosed that they wear a hair system unit. And many people who fail hair transplants will choose to wear a hair system.

Advantages:

1. Easy to wear and take off, in various styles. You can feel free to choose your favorite hairstyle and hair color.
2. Fashionable and healthy, lifelike and natural, you can see the effect right away without a long wait.
3. Like your own hair, you can wear it for bathing, sleeping, fitness, etc., without any inconvenience.

Disadvantages:

1. Hair systems are consumable and need to be changed every once in a while.
2. If not properly worn, it is easy to fall off and causes unnecessary embarrassment.

Here are the advantages and disadvantages of the above four methods. Which method have you used?

In fact, the most effective method for hair loss in men is the hair system. Although it is consumable, it is nothing compared to the consumption of medication, shampoo, and other products.

Compared with hair transplants, toupees have no risk of failure, but the price is fair and affordable.

It takes a hundred years for a tree to grow, but it only takes up to three months to make a customized hair system. Wearing one, ten years younger is not a dream!
