Hair loss can happen to anyone, including you or your partner, no matter your gender and no matter your age, and it is an unfortunate situation. Thankfully, though you may not realize it, hair loss is a process that is reversible, and you can stimulate hair growth again. It can be difficult to address hair loss that is associated with your age or with your genetics, but it is possible to reverse loss that comes due to health conditions and other factors prematurely. Continue reading below to learn more about how to help yourself when you have hair loss to get your hair back.
1. Use a Derma Roller
Using a dermaroller for hair loss is a system that not many know about, but it uses a micro-needling technique to stimulate hair growth. There are tiny needles in the device that poke the dermis, a layer of your skin so that it can encourage new cell growth, and ultimately, new hair growth. You can roll the device right over your scalp where you are experiencing hair loss in order to stimulate the growth that is needed. When the punctures are created, the body will start the wound healing process which will start the creation of new hair and new cells on your scalp.
2. Get Some Serum
You may have heard that it is a serum that is used for age lines on your skin, but there is also serum for hair loss. It does take a little while for the serum to start showing results, but if you develop a routine, you are more apt to see hair regrowth. You may even have to experiment with a few different serums at first, but you will likely find one that can work for you. A dermatologist can recommend the product that may best suit your needs for why you are experiencing hair loss in the first place.
3. Consider Your Styling Techniques
If you are a female especially, you likely wear your hair in tight ponytails or buns from time to time. This can strain your hair, however, and even the hair elastic can pull your hair out. Styling your hair so tightly can actually cause premature hair loss, and it can even cause your hairline to recede as you are pulling it back. Try to find alternative methods of wearing your hair, or at least, do not wear your hair so tightly so that you are not losing it.
4. Wash Your Hair Gently
Sometimes hair loss may be due to toxic products that you are putting in your hair. If you do not use a gentle shampoo or conditioner, you may be using a product that is full of toxins that may cause hair loss. You also want these products to be moisturizing, and ensure that they are not the type that pulls moisture out of your hair. You can also apply a leave-in conditioner that is made to moisturize your hair in order to prevent you from losing more hair in the long run.
5. Live a Healthy Lifestyle
Finally, hair loss may even be due to the fact that you do not exercise or eat as you should. It is important that you have a diet that is rich in iron and in protein as they provide keratins that are necessary for hair growth. When you exercise, you also aid your body in absorbing the nutrients that it needs so you can stimulate this hair growth. Sometimes, also, if you live a stressful life, you can experience hair loss, so try to find ways to relax your mind and your body.
