Scientists are working the world over to find that illusive cure for male pattern baldness and according to some reports, they are close.
While we do a lot of reading and research into this topic here at Nut Job, we can report that although there may not be a 100% cure for male pattern baldness yet, there are definitely things you can do to keep the hair you have, slow down the process and look like you have more hair than you really do.
If you are looking to research hair transplants and medications for hair loss, we have done the research for you. You can read all about how to regrow your hair after hair loss here.
First let’s debunk some myths: Wearing a baseball cap or beanie doesn’t cause hair loss. Neither does washing it too often, over-styling, over combing or frequent brushing.
However, while frequent hair washing and styling doesn’t in itself cause hair loss, the use of some of the cheaper shampoos which contain harsh chemicals - which dry out both hair and scalp - can be a contributing factor. Dry brittle hair tends to break which means less hair to work with. In addition, a dry and unhealthy scalp can result in poor hair follicles which need to be healthy to grow healthy hair.
So using cheap, poor quality products that you buy at the supermarket on your nut certainly does not help to keep the hair you have. For one thing, dry, brittle hair will break more easily and although wearing a cap all the time doesn't actually cause hair loss, it can cause hair breakage especially on poor quality (dry and brittle) hair.
So lesson number one is to invest in good quality, natural hair products like Nut Job. Nut Job products are free of parabens, sulfates and all the chemicals that are generally recommended to keep away from your precious follicles. You can read about parabens and sulfates and the damage they do here.
Unfortunately for some of us, there is a lot of evidence that suggests there is a significant relationship between smoking and the speed of the progression of male-pattern baldness. Sorry guys! If you needed another good reason to quit smoking – there it is!
As you no doubt know, there are some treatments that can slow it down such as minoxidil and finasteride. Although these types of treatments tend to be expensive and only effective while you are using them, they are certainly cheaper than transplant surgery. But beware, if you rely on products like Rogaine that contain minoxidil, the hair loss returns as soon as you stop using it.
Since 95% of male hair loss is caused by male-pattern, genetic hair loss, there is very little that can be done to avoid it happening at some point in your life, for those with the inherited gene.
If you are looking for a quality shampoo that is light on in the chemical department, then we recommend a natural shampoo and conditioner like the Nut Job Shampoo range which you can purchase here. If you are concerned that your scalp is really dry then you will need to purchase the conditioner as well. And use it at least twice a week. Massage into your scalp to reduce dry, itchy and flaky scalp.
