Once you understand the cause of hair loss and thinning, you can manage this condition. It can happen as a result of many things: illness, anemia, medications, physical and emotional stress or childbirth. Even exposure to certain chemicals including those used to dye and relax hair can cause thinning. Poor circulation, lack of stimulation, adverse scalp conditions and clogged follicles can all result in less oxygen to the hair follicle. Scientists have found that people with stunted hair growth have up to 38% less oxygen at the hair's root. You can manage the effects by increasing the circulation and oxygen supply to your hair that was adversely affected by the hormone DHT and other growth-stunting conditions. The follicle must be healthy and functioning to effectively promote healthy hair growth. Like all battles against nature, you have to fight early and consistently with the right tools. The traditional use of sekakai (for washing hair), Mutlani clay, Beri ke patte (plum leaves), Mash ki Dal (black lentil), hair-oils, gewari (aloe vera), arq-e-gulab (rose water), olive and almond oil have been known to bring about positive results.

I would recommend a mixture of Olive oil, Almond oil and Mustard oil. Massage the scalp every night before going to sleep with the pores of the fingers. Take a shower in the morning. And stop using soaps.

you can't prevent it. you can only delay it. maybe what the guy has suggested to you works. you may also check out in the drugstore hair-restoring formulations (minoxidil is very popular).

I am getting bald and I am resolved by shaving it all the way. Sporting a skinhead looks cooler than someone who obviously has thinning hair and tries to hide the bald part. Accept the fact.

Does this type of hair loss run in your family? If not, you should start by talking to a doctor to ensure it's not a sign of a serious medical condition. See a dermatologist.

Get some hair implant, it is very painful but it works very well. and go to a psychologist, because it might mean that you have lots of stress.

if it is as rapid as you say you might want to consult your doctor it might be a reaction to a medication or result from a disorder or disease

Hair fall can be caused by many different things such as stress, diet, hormones, aging, etc.

Life changes you can make on your own:
-Sleep on a regular schedule, be in bed by 10pm.
-Use non-abrasive hair products are also helpful.
I've listed the shampoo products that have helped my hair.
-I would suggest seeing an acupuncturist to see if there is an underlying issue to your hair falling out. It could be caused by blood deficiency or many other possibilities (thyroid, etc.)

I'm not a big fan of Rogaine and especially Propecia, but if you're desperate you can use them.
I'll address each one:
-Rogaine has to be put on 2x daily. BUT it only works for certain thinning patterns. I believe people who have a pattern which begins from the forehead are out of luck, but I might be wrong about that. Double check.
-Once you stop using Rogaine your hair will fall out at an accelerated pace to where you "would" have been if you never used it at all. Plus I'm not a big fan of chemicals in the body.
-Propecia... I'm not a big fan of agents in your blood messing with other natural biological metabolic processes going on in your body. Just one of the side effects of Propecia is your libido will not function at times. So what you gonna do? Take Viagra to counter the Propecia? I'm being half serious and half sarcastic, but you get the point.

Worst case scenario you can always get a hair transplant. Where they move hair from other parts of your head to the balding area. The procedure is a bit expensive and you'd be wearing a hat or something for an extended period of time to hide the scar until the new hair grows in place.

I posted some information below from Dr. Weil that you might find helpful whether your a man or a woman.

Preventing and Reversing Hair Loss

If you are experiencing hair loss - and many women do - there are a variety of factors that could play a part. The following are often related to hair loss in women:

-Severe stress
-Damaging effects of hair treatments or styling
-Twisting or pulling your hair
-Prescription drugs such as blood thinners and medications for gout, arthritis, depression, heart problems and high blood pressure
-Thyroid disease
-Iron deficiency. (Do not take iron unless you've been tested and your doctor has recommended a supplement - it can do more harm than good if you don't need it.)

The good news is there are some nutritional changes you can make that may help prevent further loss and encourage re-growth. Try the following:

-Include omega-3 fatty acids in your diet. Try to eat salmon (preferable wild Alaskan salmon), sardines, herring or mackerel two or three times a week. Or, sprinkle two tablespoons of freshly ground flaxseeds per day on your cereal or salads, or eat walnuts.

-Supplement your diet with the essential omega-6 fatty acid called GLA (gamma-linolenic acid) in the form of black currant oil or evening primrose oil, available in capsules or soft gels at health food stores. Take 500 mg of either twice a day. Be patient with this one. You won't see results for six to eight weeks.


Thinning Hair Help

It is not unusual for women to experience thinning hair as they age, especially when hormonal changes caused by menopause come into play. If you are experiencing thinning hair (also known as female pattern baldness) or hair loss, keep the following in mind:

-The effects of hair-care treatments or styling, as well as the habit of twisting or pulling your hair, can cause hair loss or thinning.
-Certain prescription drugs (blood thinners and medications used to treat gout, arthritis, depression, heart problems and high blood pressure) can cause hair shedding that might be mistaken for thinning.
-Thyroid disease may be a factor. Speak with your doctor about a thyroid test; appropriate treatment often results in hair re-growth.
-Diet may be an issue. To maintain healthy hair and help prevent further loss, make sure you're getting enough omega-3 fatty acids. Eat salmon, sardines, herring or mackerel two or three times a week, or sprinkle two tablespoons of freshly ground flaxseeds per day on cereal or salads. Supplement your diet with GLA (gamma-linolenic acid) in the form of black currant oil or evening primrose oil. Take 500 mg of either twice a day for six to eight weeks to see if it helps.


Trying Black Currant Oil

Black-Currant Oil (Ribes nigrum), is oil pressed from black currant seeds. It is a natural source of gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), an essential fatty acid that may help lessen a variety of symptoms, including those associated with:

-Autoimmune disorders (including lupus, eczema, and psoriasis)
-Hair problems including dryness, brittleness, thinning, or splitting
-Nail problems such as weak or brittle nails
-Premenstrual syndrome
-Inflammatory disorders

Available as gel caps, look for capsules containing at least 45 mg of GLA. Avoid topical oil preparations. Adults can take 500 mg, twice per day, and children should take half this amount.
