![]() ![]() Wishing you all the very best, and thanks again for your comment, through a practice like yoga) and to support hair growth naturally (like with these natural remedies). Do whatever you can to keep inflammation down (see my post on nutrition for that), to reduce stress (e.g. It’s nearly harder to have it happen over a few months, right? As then we end up checking constantly for progress, not great considering that anxiety/stress are also triggers for more hair loss! But it is good to hear about the thicker white hairs, and the fact that they’re darkening, too. It must’ve been so tough to see your hair shedding like that, and your beard too. There’s not enough data yet for researchers to say for sure but anecdotally at least, it really does seem to be an unfortunate after-effect. Very interesting to hear it was soon after you had COVID – have you read my post on the link between the two? More and more people are writing to me saying the same thing, that they never had hair loss before until contracting the virus. ![]() I’m so sorry to hear about your hair loss this year. Thanks so much for your kind feedback and for sharing your experience – and I’m very sorry for the delay in responding to you! I’m so glad that my website has been a helpful resource and really appreciate your encouragement. I’m trying not to get too excited, but could this mean the follicles under my scalp are starting to grow back to my usual dark blonde colour? ![]() Its now 1st Nov 22, I’ve lost about 75% of my hair….i’d also say that the majority has either fine white hairs, or thicker white hairs….i’m not counting my chickens yet….īut, just now i noticed that one of the patches of thicker white hair has a darker shade to my skin on my scalp. (My beard is also showing signs of recovery) I should add, that 50% of my beard has also shedded and what remains has gone white too. It had a slow start and i found 3 or 4 other similar sized patches within a week or 2.īy mid July, i had to shave my head, i was devastated and drained as i had lost about 35% of my hair (which, was showing the initial signs of regrowth. I found a small patch (20p size) back at the start of May 2022. I had a full head of dark blonde hair, probably about 2 inches long. I’m 42 years old male, no health issues, fit and well (apart from mild covid mid April 22). I really value all the work and guidance you have put into this. I got vellus hair after just 2 weeks of using it and my hair is in pretty much the best condition it’s ever been…shiny, strong and not shedding for a change! Check out my full review here – I’m happy to recommend Revita as a more natural hair loss shampoo.įirstly, i wanted to say your page has been my “go to” source of reassurance and encouragement during my alopecia episode. More recently, I’ve started using Revita shampoo, which I love. (It does have a good system for chemically treatment or colored hair though, helping you to protect it from and repair existing damage.) In the past, I favoured Nioxin shampoo – because it actually helped my hair grow back after 3 months! But it’s not for everyone, and it contains sulfates nowadays. That means getting rid of excess debris or sebum, clearing any bacterial issues and providing plenty of moisture while protecting your hair from environmental damage. So why bother?īecause a good hair loss shampoo will provide the optimal scalp environment for hair growth. Remember when I said there’s no miracle cure for hair loss? Well, that applies to hair loss shampoos, too. Psst… I don’t have any exclamation hairs right now (which I’m taking as a good sign!) But basically, they’re short stubby things that look like…well…exclamation points! Often they’ll disappear as you pursue whatever treatment you’re on, allowing stronger hair to take their rightful place on your crown. (Again, sorry.)īut don’t let these spiky fellas get to you. ![]() Rather, it means the condition might just be getting started. In other words, if you notice exclamation hairs around your bald spot, it doesn’t mean your hair is growing back or that your alopecia is gone. Basically, the body’s autoimmune response weakens these hairs and cuts them short at scalp level while, at the same time, their follicles enter the ‘telogen’ (resting) phase. They usually appear in a mix of vellus hairs around the edge of a patch, and they indicate that some sort of inhibition is still taking place. Unfortunately, these short hairs, which you might mistake for regrowth, aren’t a very good sign. ![]()
