Originally I started this blog way way back. Please feel free to check my blogs. My final blog ended with me saving money in hard times like these and putting what's more important in life. I can say, the fact I'm not on any hair loss treatments, Regaine Extra Strength or Nizoral shows my hair hasn't change much at all. Possibly 1 or 5 hairs but nothing drastic on my receding temples.
I question myself.....whats the cause? My mother side, dad was bald and if gene is passed on. I'm certain to be bald someday. (Big assumption)
Was it stress levels? Possible? My diet? Probably at the time.
All I can think that I use to do and I don't do or very rarely do now is and vice versa:
DON'T DOS anymore:
I don't drink MUCH, (only for SPECIAL occasions, e.g. 3 times a year)
I don't use hair gel
I dont use hair spray and/or wax (defintely a harmful factor for me)
I dont have long hair anymore
I dont eat junk OR MUCH junk. A treat myself once a week, either cake or sweet (moderate and reasonable amount)
I don't use conditioner
I don't wash my hair with shampoo everyday, just once for every two days
DOs:
I exercise very frequently (e.g. 3/4 times a week)
I eat a very healthy diet (Vitamins, Vegetables, High Protein (reasonable amount in calculation of my body weight), daily requirements of folic acid, iron, calcium, etc etc. There's so much!
Fruits: Kiwi, Avocado, Cranberries, Raspberries, Leeks, Celery, etc.
Drinking alot of water, 2L's a day
Getting alot of sleep (8hrs 30 mins/9hrs minimum)
Summary is: My point is, even if I stick to the hair loss, it will only be time consuming (in my opinion) which it was. Applying it twice a day, waiting for application to be dried and cannot perform exercise or sweating to weaken the process. With so many restrictions, I couldn't enjoy life. Yes, I still don't want to go bald but as much I'd like to gain my hair back on my receding temples, there's little I can do to STOP it. With AGE process playing a part and me getting older, I have to face the facts and can only slow the process down.
This is my blog and my personal opinion and experience with hair loss products. Others have good results, others don't get any, others have results but tiny folicle hairs as a result and i'm one of them.
Would I consider hair transplant? I'm no fan of surgery, I'm no risk taker
I hope to put photos very soon so there is a contrast of BEFORE and AFTER as it has been a while.
Until then, enjoy and whether you are considering treatments or undergoing for it, don't give up hope and all the best of luck.
Hopefully it may work for you or may not. who knows....
Enjoy your rest of your holidays and hope you all have a Happy New Year.
See you all in the New Year.
