Hello Forum,

Long time no see here. It’s been a while since I posted on the forum but just wanted to check in to ask popular opinion on potential side effects of aggressive scalp massage on those of us who have male pattern balding (and are on treatments). I’m just wondering if we should avoid having barbers or a masseuse give aggressive massage attention to the scalp because it seems like that’s going to cause some follicles to shed during the process(even women who have no hairless genetics will obviously shed some follicles).
I occasionally have this done and am wondering if I should stop worrying about it. Perhaps the increased circulation from the massage could even help stimulate some hair follicles to regenerate a little thicker..or at least not thinner?

Thanks!

Brad

I shall give you a good dick massage instead so you forget about your hair for just a moment.
