Is it possible to regrow hair that has turned fine and fuzzy?

July 21st, 2010

Hello. I am 26 years old. My hairline has been receding for about 6 years at the left and right temple areas. I still have the middle section of my hair (I’m not sure of the best way to describe it). Anyway, when I closely inspect my scalp, the entire receded area is still covered with VERY small, fine, fuzz-like hair. At a quick glance it looks bald, but upon closer inspection the hair is still there.

My question is, do I have a good chance of growing the lost hair back? I don’t know how long it takes for a follicle to completely die, but I would imagine that if that had occurred, there would be no hair visible in the area at all, right?

I look forward to hearing from you.

Hi and thanks for your question.

If you examine any part of your skin (except your palms and the soles of your feet) closely enough you will see tiny, almost invisible, transparent hairs. These fine hairs are known as ‘vellus hairs’.

A hormone by-product called DHT causes the tiny vellus hairs on the arms, legs, faces and other areas to grow thicker and darker during puberty. The same DHT has the reverse effect on the hairs on the head, later in life.

In order to save these tiny vellus hairs from total extinction you need to reverse the miniaturization process by reactivating the vellus hair follicles. In cases where the hairs have become almost invisible, your hopes of reactivating them are slim, but it is possible – providing you work fast; which is why starting a good hair regrowth regime before your hair loss gets too bad is always advisable.

How do you reactivate these dormant hairs?

In order to bring these hairs back to life you need to follow four important stages:

  1. Reduce DHT levels going to the scalp
  2. Remove DHT already present in the scalp
  3. Increase blood flow in the scalp
  4. Increase nutrient supply to the hairs

DHT is what causes the hair follicle miniaturization in the first place (in most cases), so that’s the first thing to deal with. Then it’s a case of getting the blood and nutrient supply to above and beyond the levels required for a terminal hair (normal thick hair) to grow healthily. Once DHT is eliminated from the equation and nutrient and blood supply are charged up, the hairs can begin to regrow.

There are a few other tricks that can help. The scalp needs to be shocked back into ‘hair growing mode’. It may have been in ‘hair loss mode’ for a while, so it needs something to spark it back into life. This is a fairly simple process that can be completed from home.

Does masturbation cause hair loss?

July 12th, 2010

There is some scientific evidence to suggest that masturbation can contribute to hair loss; however I don’t believe there is any 100% positive proof. In theory it does make sense that ejaculation can have an impact on the hair in men who have a genetically inherited sensitivity to DHT in their scalps.

During sex or masturbation testosterone levels increase and at the point of ejaculation, some testosterone is converted into DHT. If the DHT makes it to the scalp and the scalp is sensitive to DHT, the result could be increased hair loss.

What is the solution?

There are several ways of combating this problem. You can stop masturbating or having sex (at least to the point of ejaculation), you can inhibit DHT production using saw palmetto, prescription hair loss medication or with dietary changes, or ideally, you can stop the DHT from reaching your scalp by making your body’s hormonal processing system more efficient.

My personal approach is a mixture of the latter two options. I’m not a fan of the prescription medication approach and I feel that taking saw palmetto supplements everyday for the rest of your life is not a satisfactory solution to stopping hair loss, since it relies on continued use of a supplement.

I think that for the average person a saw palmetto supplement is an adequate short-term solution. However I would advise that if you want a more complete solution you should aim to solve the problem at it’s root, by improving the efficiency of your body’s hormonal processing capabilities.

Getting to the root of hair loss

July 6th, 2010

Today’s most effective hair loss treatments almost always seek to tackle just one cause of hair loss. For example, topical Minoxidil products tackle weakened circulation in the scalp and herbal supplements like Propecia attempt to inhibit the conversion of testosterone into DHT.

Although these treatments are clearly tackling known causes of hair loss, none of the companies producing them seem to be answering the question, “why do these causes begin taking effect in some individuals in the first place?”. What is it that changes in some people’s bodies that makes them start to lose hair?

These are surely the most important questions. For if we can solve these problems we can truly cure hair loss, not just treat it.

Currently it seems that none of the hair loss treatments available on the market address the root causes of hair loss. Perhaps this is a way to sustain long-term profits in the multi-billion dollar industry or perhaps hair loss treatment manufacturers simply don’t yet have the understanding of human biology to properly cure the root cause(s) of hair loss.

Root cause analysis

In order to properly solve any problem you have to find the ‘root’ of it. If you do not solve a problem at it’s root you are likely to be only temporarily treating one of it’s symptoms.

For example, you might achieve mediocre success in staving off hair loss by using a DHT inhibitor supplement. But really what you should be doing is bringing DHT production down naturally from within your body.

The same goes for circulation. Weak circulation in the scalp is another cause of hair loss. But doing exercises like scalp massages that temporarily boost circulation in the scalp is only a short term, temporary treatment. It’s better to improve your circulation to the extremities by solving problems in your blood vessels, your blood and other parts of your body, thus naturally boosting blood flow to your scalp at all times, rather than just while you do the exercises.

Getting to the root of hair loss is the underlying theme of my whole book. I explain the six most significant causes of hair loss: DHT, poor circulation in the scalp, blocked pores in the scalp, stress, poor nutrition and poor liver efficiency. And then I explain how to make each of these areas work to your advantage: low DHT levels, strong circulation, clear pores, relaxed mind, excellent diet for hair growth and strong liver.

By eliminating each of the underlying causes of hair loss you don’t need to use temporary fixes that inhibit DHT or boost circulation – because your body is now in the correct state for hair growth, from the inside and the outside.
