what about oily scalp? it causes hair loss right? any solution for oily scalps, anyone...

Yup Oily Scalp can accelerate hair loss..but is not the main cause of hair loss..oily scalp can lead to dandruff...Oily scalp is produced by the sabecous glands in your hair follicle..usually when you are stressed it will produce more oil.

What you can do is get a medicated shampoo like Nizoral which contains the active ingredient Ketoconazole..very good for dandruff and oily scalp (and is a very good anti androgen). But don't use too much..rotate it between normal shampoos..Also..you can use mild shampoo and wash your hair regularly and reduce stress. That will reduce your oily scalp.

Plastic combs does not cause hair loss...just static...when you come your hair static can make your hair stick to the plastic combs..so those hairs in the Resting Phase (TELOGEN) means gonna fall off anyway will fall off..Even if you don't comb it with plastic it's going to fall off when you sleep sooner or later. Unless you use comb to pull your hair out there is no way plastic combs can cause hair loss..

Remember it's normal to lose 50 - 100 hairs a day...because it will grow back!

nope bro..
that one i`m just have a shop that sell that stuff,,,
to trace that is original buffalo thorn comb,when it wet,it will produce stinky...huhu,,

Haha,

Won't say i am professional, but i've been researching and trying out methods on how to stop hair loss for more than 10 years now. Besides that. ive been through hair loss before and ive learned how to cope with it. Most people like me had made the same mistake by spending so much money on unnecessary products..thats why i want to help people realize the actual situation..and nope..no seminars for me..just my website to help people.

mental stress and physical exhaustion (including sleep deprivation) can cause hair loss.

try to find a solution to your migraine problem.

Can't agree more...stress is one of the major cause of hair loss. Most people just keep on finding for products to cure hair loss while the most common trigger of hair loss is stress itself. When you sleep late or waste your body too much you are exposed to hair loss. If you have genetic hair loss and stress, you will lose your hair a lot faster.

huhu...
i`d go to pharmacy and maybe tradisional method one...
to cure my migraine..

Try propecia. Proven will work... but burn a hole in my wallet

Macho, yeah i said rotate the shampoo..you can't use too much because the active ingredient Ketaconazole is usually meant for treating BPH (Enlarge Prostate) when taken orally so you cannot use too much. Try to rotate between shampoos..use twice a week and then your regular shampoo. As for the hibiscus and bunga raya, that is tradisional medication..i am not sure what it does to help..

You might want to get a natural shampoo from Body Shop that have

Eucalyptus
Rosemary Oil
Chamomile..

These 3 natural herbs will help you reduce your oily scalp..

how about taking smaller dosage?

i would suggest you to make your hair grows new everyday.rather than u keep on trying sumthing to stop ur hair falling.hair always fall everyday.even when u comb ur hair. i think ur hair didn't grew fastly.that's y u look ur hair lesser or nearly to bald.

so nowadays there are lots of product to make ur hair grow fast. my friends use gamat oil that is good for our head skin. maybe u should try it too.somemore..it's cheaper. good luck!

Genetic Hair Loss...or Male Pattern Baldness is not related to normal hair fall. Genetics and your male hormone Testosterone are converted to DHT by the enzyme 5 alpha Reductase..when DHT reaches your hair follicles..it will make it fall and shrink your hair follicles in the next hair growth cycle..so no matter what growth stimulant you use you have to stop DHT first.

That is what Propecia does. It stops DHT by stopping the enzyme to bind with Testosterone..That is why Propecia can give you side effects like decreased libido and potential ED since Testosterone is a male hormone. Females don't have sucha big problem because they don't have so much Testosterone compare to men and Estrogen protects them. One more thing WOMEN MUST NOT TOUCH PROPECIA..can affect child birth...

but,from my knowledge,the rotation of shampoo will increase the probability for hair fall problem??

This post has been edited by macho_siot: May 30 2008, 10:47 PM

Nope Macho...Nizoral is a medicated shampoo..it contains ketoconazale..you cannot maintain using it daily as it will cause scalp irritation and dryness..Ketoconazole is a synthetic antifungal drug used to prevent and treat skin and fungal infections...see my page on Nizoral.. Nizoral Shampoo

Rotating shampoo or regular shampoo won't cause hair loss..genetic hair loss has nothing to do with frequent shampooing cause it cannot affect the hair follicles..butt you can lose more of the TELOGEN hairs by frequent shampooing..TELOGEN hairs are in the resting phase anyway so it will fall off sooner or later

i`m used this one..
but,my hair is more fall than before..
so,i stopped it..

\Bro, wht combination of suppliment can we take to reduce hair loss? Can we get those from pharmacies?
Please recommend me please.

Hey Yehlai,

Vitamin B Complex is the best source of vitamins your hair needs...anyway take more fish because it contains Omege 3 Acidc (good for hair growth). If you want to try supplements..there is Saw Palmetto..which has the same effect of Propecia but milder to inhibit DHT..also reduce on salt..Vitamin B Complex is widely available in pharmacies...there is so much to tell you what to get...see my Preventing Hair Loss page for more info here Preventing Hair Loss

Added on May 31, 2008, 3:56 pmMacho, in order to grow more hairs..its a must for other hair to fall off first..new hair grows from under dead hairs..you cannot grow extra hair because when you are born you have around 100,000 hair follicles..so you cannot grow 110,000 hair follicles..you can only grow what you have..So a product's effectiveness is first to make you lose the old hairs then the new thicker hair can grow from below.

Let me explain further

Your dead hairs are in TELOGEN phase, that means those hair anytime will fallout..you cannot stop it. When you use an active product..it will stiimulate growth of new hair follicles from under these hairs..then these new hair follicles will PUSH out from under your old hair..so you old hair has to fall first in order for new hair to grow..
