      Rosemary oil and Rice water seems to have reversed my receding hairline (literally a whole inch / 2.5cm of extra hairline at the front, took a couple of weeks to go from baby white hairs to pretty thick black hairs
      Still have a decent amount of thinning which i think might be related to my own scalp health
      Gonna see a doc tomorrow
      Anyway i just wanted to say rosemary oil and rice water seems to have reversed my receding hairline maybe it's something you could try out for yourself too i've had pretty outstanding results but i need to figure out how to reverse the thinning.
      At least the hairline isn't a problem for me now.
      Not even joking i've had pretty amazing results in the hairline regrowth but the thinning is something i'm gonna see a doc for.

      Scalp massage really works. Do it daily before and during bathing, I use coconut oil. I use a fine tooth comb as well, you must use some pressure. Do be EXTRA gentle around bumps, circle from away, changing where you start, swirling inwards. Massage face and neck. GREAT for the health and appearance. stay just behind the hairline and you can gradually restore your natural hairline, and have thicker hair. the massage removes the ' cradle cap' that coats the scalp. Peace!

    I lost a horrendous amount of hair after severe covid, and it was at its worst about 6 months post infection. I didn't think it would come back, and after 1 year it was no better. I stumbled on scalp massage after looking at the usual drug treatments, which after reading the long term issues of these I didn't touch them.
    My experience with scalp massage after 1 year is yes it does work, but takes time to start working. I learned 1 important thing though, don't massage every day, as you want to do it so that you actually makes your scalp slightly sore the day after, this way you know that the deeper tissue in the scalp has been manipulated, sort of like a deep bruise, and not just the skin on top. This then needs time to heal before you do it again, just like bodybuilding. Between 5 and ten minutes should be fine, every three days or maybe do twice a week on set days.
    On the days when you don't massage your scalp, make sure you do neck and shoulder exercises to relieve muscle stress in those areas. This muscle stress affects blood flow to the scalp and head which can make hair loss worse. Also, massage around your brows and top of the jaw in front of your ears, this also relieves the muscles that surround the scalp. Hope this helps some of you. It's worked for me so far, and I'm slowly getting hair back. Interestingly, the areas on the top of my head which had the worst hair loss, is growing back darker than it was, whereas my sides are still greying like before.
    I'm 52 by the way, so don't give up, it's worth the effort.
    Thanks.

      I think neck exercises are the key. I haven't had hair loss yet but I noticed I had massive knots on my SCM muscles. I believe if the neck is compromised it will restrict blood flow to the head eventually causing issues like hair greying and hair loss. In my case as soon as I began to do neck exercises my vision began to improve naturally

  • @loganlogan5296
    @loganlogan5296 3 роки тому +93

    Correct way is pushing the scalp from sideways to upper side.
    Upper side and temple area have more stretching force and as a result more tension. So you have to reduce the tension by making the scalp muscle become relaxed not stretched.
    Also 1 or 1.5 mm dermaroller once a week.
    Papermint oil as it's proven in lab to regrow hair.
    Nothing would work if you're going through stress or anxiety.
    Reduce stress, only then you could see result as early as 3 weeks.

    I had great success last year with hair density by exercising more and going for long walks on sunny days. Not sure if it was the sun, Vitamin D or exercising which was the trigger (or indeed all three) but I ended up with much thicker, more lustrous locks within a matter of three months. Oh and last year was the first year I ditched all fizzy soft drinks, so an improved diet helped as well.

    I do scalp massage every day and I have had 2 hair transplants . I wash my hair every day with shampoo and conditioner to lubricate my scalp. After I have washed of the residue I take a rough bath towel, soft is no good and rub my scalp from front to back to stimulate blood flow. I don’t rub to hard as I don’t want to take any skin off. Holding the towel place in both hands spread out and rub . Massage the whole scalp but pay more attention to the bald areas. To begin with some of your hair will come out but that will stop. I hardly lose any hair now. I massage for about 2 minutes but you can do more. When you’re rubbing with the towel you will feel your scalp getting hot as your blood is diverted to the surface. You will get results I guarantee but you have to give it time. During the day usually whilst watching tv I also give my scalp a normal massage starting from the temples kneeding and pressing. Again don’t break the skin. No need for any oiling the conditioner will lubricate your scalp. The intention is to make your scalp and crown as vascular as the hair at the back of your head. Give it 6 months you will see a difference I promise

    Bro, the AGA is because of DHT problem which miniaturize the hair from the root. Lycopene which from tomatoes is the key to regularize the excessive DHT. You can try out Lycopene suplement with certain mg base for 24 weeks and check out whether it improves hair growth or not. Hope to see this video in future.

      @@TheMSMALIVE The same reason why your hair doesn't fall out on the back of your head or why some men don't get bald at all. Some hair follicies are sensitive to DHT and some are not because of receptor differencies. That being said why don't understand male pattern baldness completely, but it's pretty sure that DHT is the main contributor to hair loss.

    Apply this mixture twice a week at night before sleeping, then wash hair next day. In a few weeks I could notice lots of baby hair that had grown big enough to be noticed. Castor oil is very sticky so using too much directly without diluting might clog the pores.

    Since you already are essentially bald you should shave your head down completely and then try cupping therapy like they use at an acupuncture place that would be the best way to draw a significant amount of blood into the area and then you can pull on the cups which will create a reverse myofascial release.

    The 20 min hand massage is VASTLY superior to massage tools. Although using both along with dermarolling once a week is the best way to treat hair loss. And doing handstands at least 5 mins a day to increase blood flow to the scalp.

    Back rolls can help too (curl up in ball and roll back and forth) as it can help blood flow to your head. But having said all this, genetic predisposition plays the biggest role and stressors that trigger the predisposition faster/sooner than expected. Basically, it will happen whether you like it or not and stressors along with foods you consume, and pollutants all trigger an increase in the rate of hair loss. Everyone has a set number of hair follicles and nothing can suddenly make more hair follicles appear on your scalp. What really happens in hair loss is not that you are losing hair, because humans always lose hair everyday all the time. It's when hair follicles are not regrowing the hair. So basically everyone is losing hair all the time, but baldness is when your hair follicles stop growing hair while other people's follicles keep growing it after it falls out.
