How to prevent baldness and hair loss

(1) Insufficient vitamin A in food, excessive drinking, smoking, overeating or over-hungering, etc. will have adverse effects on hair growth. To keep your hair healthy, you should eat foods that contain vitamins, minerals, and low fat, such as fruits, green leafy vegetables, and protein foods; do not be picky eaters, and get rid of bad habits.

(2) Regular physical exercise is not only the best way to eliminate mental stress, but also an important measure to prevent excessive obesity. Mental stress is often an important cause of hair loss. Obesity causes endocrine changes, which affects the blood supply to hair follicles and hinders normal hair growth.

(3) Learn the correct way to wash your hair. Do not use water that is too hot or too cold, and choose a milder shampoo. Do not use alkaline soap to wash your hair, as this will damage your hair and affect its growth. If your hair is dry and has dandruff, apply hair wax on your head before washing it, wrap your head with a towel for half an hour so that the wax can penetrate the hair well, and then rinse your hair. Oily hair should be washed with warm water once a week. Washing too often will stimulate the activity of the sebaceous glands, which is not good for the hair. Dry hair should be washed less often.

(4) Massage your scalp when combing your hair. It is best to use a comb with sparse teeth. Do not comb your hair when it is not completely dry to avoid hair breakage. Do not use too much force when combing your hair. Gently comb along the roots of the hair. It is best to massage your scalp with your fingers before combing your hair. This is very beneficial for increasing the blood supply to the scalp and improving the nutritional status of the hair follicles.

(5) The correct methods of hair dyeing, perming and hair drying should be used. Dyes that are harmful to hair and incorrect perming methods should be avoided. Hair should be permed at most once every three months.

(6) Be careful about the impact of climate on your hair. Fresh air is good for your hair, but cold and hot weather are harmful to your hair. When you go out in such weather, you should wear a hat to protect your hair.

(7) Treat physical and mental illnesses promptly and eliminate mental trauma.

Why are boys more likely to go bald than girls?

In addition to the resistance caused by certain diseases or drug factors, the main cause of baldness is excessive secretion of androgens in the body. This is because the secretion glands are mainly controlled by androgens. If the androgen secretion is too strong, the face and head of the person will secrete too much oil. When the pores on the top of the head are clogged with fat, the nutrition supply of the hair will be hindered.

Finally, as time goes by, the hair will gradually be lost and become bald, which is often called seborrheic alopecia. Women rarely suffer from baldness because they lack male hormones that hinder hair growth.

Will staying up late really make you bald?

Hair loss is related to changes in the body. For example, frequent anger, insomnia, smoking, spicy food, etc. are bad for hair. As for whether it is serious enough to cause baldness, it depends on how long you stay up late. The longer you stay up late, the more hair you lose.

Normal people will secrete hormones and produce a large amount of metabolites from puberty. If these deposits are blocked in the hair follicles, they will cause atrophy and degeneration. The affected parts are generally limited to the forehead and the top of the head. The back of the head is not controlled by hormones. Over time, the hair will not grow.

In addition to irregular work and rest, eating habits and staying up late, this is also related to family inheritance. It is recommended that you drink more water to regulate your body and detoxify, go outdoors for more exercise, and get more sun, which will help the body replenish calcium. You can try to do more head massages when washing your hair, and eat less spicy and stimulating food on weekdays, which will be very helpful to avoid baldness in the future.
