Hair Loss Myths and Legends

[Mikey]

I thought it would be cool to have people type in various myths that they have encountered reguarding hairloss and to have people veriffy if they are actually true. For example, a few Ive heard off would be, putting on heavy anti deoderant under your armpits, using a hot hair dryer, too much hair spray/gell, spanking the monkey too often, aswell as ones which are supposed to make your hair grow, like eating watercress and so on

3. skips a generation

4. propecia makes you balder

5. pull a grey hair out and 2 more will grow back

This one brainwashed me for about 4 years when I finally discovered I was affected by male pattern baldness.

I have the same color hair as my mothers dadr, its wavy exactly the same, and i had the same teenage hairline as my grandfather, which was receding but it was a natural receded line. He never lost a hair or even got any grey hair before he died. Top that off with mbp comes from the mothers side myth that i thought was true, and you get me totally unexpecting hairloss.

Here's link to a few - most of which we've all heard.

The one surprising "myth" (to me anyway) was the one where balding men are "sexier". Hmmmmm....

Amazing how many old wive's tales turn out to be true. In light of prolactin's role in Androgenetic Alopecia coming to light and WCE being shown to upregulate R-spondin it seems there's some truth to these.

It's crazy bro. When I try to remember who I was in March 2003, I barely recognize that mofo.
