Does brushing your hair make it fall out faster? Does rogaine really work?
Imagine yourself out in public wondering if others are looking at your head, imagine having to wear hats and other head covers so that people don't see your receding hair line and bald spots, and imagine watching movies and TV with envy every time you see a movie star with a full head of glorious hair. These are actually what people who are experiencing hair loss go through on a daily basis. There are many products out in the market claiming to be the best cure for hair loss and some claims to help in hair regrowth. If you don’t suffer from hair loss, you would not probably notice these products, but if you are one of the many people facing it, you’ll certainly do notice them.
Both Sexes
Some people think it’s only a male problem, thinking that women are invulnerable to hair loss. But that is simply a false belief; women all over the world face hair loss. Just like men, they also develop receding hair lines to the extent of having embarrassing bald spots. In the case of men, it has become an acceptable trend to shave all of your hair off to go bald. Some very famous and good looking people are bald: take Vin Diesel as an example. However, for women, hair loss is simply devastating. A luxurious hair is considered by women as a sign of beauty and femininity, that is why women hair care products do so well in the market.
Treatments
Nowadays, you'll find many treatment products in the form of creams, gels, pills, vitamins and more that claim to stop or cure hair loss. There are also hair clubs and hair hospitals that you can join with the promise of regrowth for your hair for a younger-looking and healthier you. But the question remains, do these treatments really work? Scientists are torn between two cliques. Some claim that baldness is mainly genetic and that there's not much you can do about it except to get hair plugs, get a toupee or have hair transplants. Others say these products can work and they do work and they have proof in actual human testing guinea pigs to prove it. But the sad fact here is that there are still many spurious salesmen out there looking for someone going through hair loss to take advantage of and earn a few bucks. Some treatments may work but there are enough scams out there to give the entire industry a bad name.
If you're suffering from hair loss or on the brink of it, it is best to invest time in conducting researches before spending on treatments. It’s more devastating to go broke falling for scams, following false promises and hanging on to false hopes. However, you must realize that it's what's on the inside that counts and that hair loss is not the end of the world. Learn to be happy and contented with the way you are right now, and with this you’ll be a much happier person; even if you are a man or a woman losing your hair.
