I've always had fine hair. When I was younger I had plenty of it and never would I have thought that I would have anything less than my beautiful long flowing locks. At age 27 my hair drastically began to thin. I first blamed it on stress. Next was because of my recent weight loss. Finally, I just accepted that it was happening and it must be genetics. I tried varies shampoos, herbal remedies, and diet changes in hopes that something would help. Nothing worked.
This had gone on for 3 years. I am now 30 and just accepted hair loss as part of getting older. But I figured it out! Two months from where I was visibly thinning I now have lots of little hairs growing thickly out of my scalp. My husband noticed, and those close to me have asked how I was able to get my hair to stop thinning. It was so simple, and I'm going to tell you my secret.
A little back story before I tell you how I did it. When I began getting older I also noticed some acne showing up on my back. I never use to have a problem with this. So trying to think logically why my body had a problem now and not earlier I tried a few remedies, but it wasn't until I recalled something from biology class that made me realize what may have been the problem. As we age our body has a harder time shedding dead skin cells. Simple enough. Well what if I try to eliminate anything that makes it hard for my body to remove those dead skin cells and I do my part in removing the dead skin cells manually.
So what I did was I used a scrub brush to scrub the dead skin cells off of my back after I rinsed my conditioner. I also hold my long hair up and off my back after rinsing out the conditioner so no film gets on my back after I have scrubbed it clean. This simple procedure solved my back acne problem.
So years later after I had figured out how to cure my back acne did I realize that perhaps the same simple method would cure my thinning hair. Guess what-it worked!
2 Very Simple Steps that Cured my Thinning Hair
1). Do not put conditioner on scalp. Just on the lower half of hair or not at all if you have short hair.
2). Scrub dead skin cells off of the scalp as you wash your hair and as you rinse your hair clean. Be sure to scrub in the direction you'd like hair to grow.
For example my hair was thinning up by my forhead so I would scratch at the areas that were thinning and pull them downward toward my face. For some reason this seems to help them grow in the right direction.
My cure for Back Acne
1). After rinsing conditioner out of hair put hair up and do not allow any hair to touch the back.
2). Using a clean scrub brush that is only used for your back scrub all areas of the back that have acne problems. Do not use any other cleanser just water.
Granted these things worked for me, but that does not mean they will work for everyone. The only thing I can suggest is if this doesn't work then just keep trying. Maybe the hair loss problem you are facing is stress-related, diet-related, or just plain genetics. Keep trying. Who knows you may find a way to cure your own thinning hair problem and be posting it for all to see later.
Either way hope for a cure may be just a scrub away.
