How Much Hair Can I Lose and Still Be Me

 

Many people wake up in the morning and see their pillows for amounts of hair that have fallen out. Hair loss sufferers verify their combs and brushes after every use and try to calculate the number of hairs contained therein. Hair loss sufferers put on their glasses and check the number of hairs in the shower or sink after each shower. Hair loss sufferers grow anxious, worried, and scared. How much will lose today, and how soon will I begin to look bald to others? They concern about the impressions they will make on bosses, future bosses, friends, co-workers, and even strangers who see them in public places. What a horrible way to live!

If hair loss is starting to be a daily concern for you, do something about it! Consult with your physician to ensure that there is not some physiological cause which can be remedied. Some diseases have hair loss as early symptoms, and surely you want to know if you are diabetic and suffering from Lupus. Bacterial and fungal infections can cause hair loss, and can indeed be cured. Worry, anxiety, stress, and major life traumas can affect it. Surgery can cause it. Pregnancy can cause it. All of these are either temporary or controllable, and that should bring you relief. If, however, you are among the millions of adults who are simply the products of your heredity and/or hormones, you must look in other directions.

1. First and foremost, take care of your body with good diet and training. These things affect hair health and can slow down the loss of your hair.

2. Find ways to lower stress and anxiety. Exercise, Yoga, meditation, etc. are good activities for this.

3. Take care how you handle your hair. Do not pull at it, comb or brush it harshly, or use harsh shampoos. Diminish use of colorants and other harsh chemicals. Try to manipulate your hair as little as possible. Lower the use of blow dryers and curling irons.

4. Investigate and experiment with the large variety of products available to reduce hair loss. The earlier in life you start this investigation and experimentation, the better your results will be. Products like Provillus, for example, should be used with the first signs of more than normal hair loss.

5. Try natural remedies, such as Saw Palmetto(primarily for men), essential oils and herb solutions. These are available at health/nutrition retailers or on many Internet sites. Again, you will have to experiment to find what works best for you.

Every body is unique and will respond differently to different treatments. Whatever the level of your hair loss, if it bothers you, you owe it to your own peace of mind and well-being to explore your options. Do it early on and find what is right for you.
