cutting/shaving/tweezing makes more hair grow?

[TheHairGrower]

Hey,

Everyones heard cutting the hair, makes it grow faster, and shaving legs makes them grow harrier, and maybe tweezing to makes more hair grow.

I was wondering if anyone has any information on this, if its real, or if anyone experienced something like this, or heard something.

So shaving, cutting, and lastly tweezing. Ther are lots of myths about this, anyone have any ideas?

This doesn't apply in a hairloss situation but yes.. shaving your body or face will increase the hair growth.

I might be wrong but I thought he was asking whether or not shaving his head regularly could have the same effect as the body and face, ie: creating stronger hairgrowth of fine hairs whilst encouraging new growth from surrounding areas?

I really don't think it has that effect on body hair, either. The reason it appears to grow back thicker is that you're basically evening up the length of all the body hair. Before you had long, short, etc. all mixed together.

Yes you might well be right there, the whole concept is still useless to hairloss though.

maybe useless maybe not, another guy made a point about cutting hair,

like the hair has less weight, or something so it stays healthier, or, maybe cutting hair stimulates it to grow,

I shaved my hair when I reached NW3, 3 years later I was NW6 (during the last year I was also on propecia) enough proof?
Shaving will do nothing for regrowing your hair and in my case neither did propecia, so dont get your hopes up.
