Winter

[bornwithacurse224]

Can winter cause male pattern baldness to become more aggressive? I noticed I don't have much shed at all, but until my house got drier and I spent more time out in the snow I've seen more hairs. I've seen a lot of hairs with multiple flakes of dandruff attached and sometimes a hair follicle with a second hair poking out of it. This never happened in the summer because I was always outside in the humidity and swimming and stuff and I couldn't even notice a shed. I had no shed changing at all when winter first started because I was mostly inside and adjusting to the cold, but now that I've got dry skin I'm ****ed. I thought it was just seb derm but even my legs and arms have dry skin in every bit of skin I can see. Does moisture help keep your hair follicles healthier? Ever since winter I've had more inflamation and flare ups on my scalp and the dry air is a big cause I think

I don't think winter can cause male pattern baldness to become more aggressive, otherwise I'd be bald by now if that's possible. :laugh:

Me personally, my male pattern baldness is the same all the time, no change in hair count with different seasons. Keeping a healthy scalp and providing the best environment possible for the hair follicles is definitely a must.

Hair grows and sheds a little slower in the winter actually. But the net result is the same amount of hair on your head.
