You Might be Causing Your Own Baldness

Baldness

Of course, balding is not entirely your fault. A big part of it is down to genetics and hormones, but if the widow’s peak seems to be creeping in too soon, then it is time to look at altering your routine to slow down that patch that keeps dwindling. Here are some things to consider.

 

1. Set The Man Buns Free

This might come as a shock to you, but if you are one of the bros still sporting a pony, you should start considering letting your hair hang free. Traction Alopecia is what it’s called, which means those long locks are being pulled constantly and traction is causing hair to be slowly falling out of hair follicles.

 

2. Stop Using Bad Products

Like any other skin on your body, your scalp needs moisture. But if the products you are using are highly alcoholic, the bald spot will soon begin to appear sooner rather than later. You should start thinking of ditching alcohol-ridden products. Use naturally balanced products that don’t dry out your scalp. UK hairstyling company the Hairbond United Kingdom has built their celebrity loved name on a great range of professional quality products, from conditioning masks to protective sea salt sprays, and then a selection of first-grade putty, clays, and waxes. We recommend ditching your supermarket products for a professional salon line such as Hairbond, which is free from any nasty ingredients, which might normally be contributing to your hair loss.

 

3. Remember Moisture in the Savage Summers

Don’t we all love the summer days, spending hours soaking in the sun, and dipping in the pool? If you are one of those who have been preparing for the UV season to come, ensure you are investing in a very moisturizing and protective routine. Chlorine and UV reinforce the brittle texture which can cause your hair to fall out. Men who want to keep their hair, frequently use conditioners. Use as much moisture as possible to strengthen your scalp in hotter temperatures. As mentioned above, Hairbond UK does a great hair mask, primer and if you like a beachy holiday look, their sea salt spray protects hair against UV damage too.

4. Your Skin is Sensitive Too

When you get back in your shower, read your bottles and find anything that contains sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) and toss them in the bin. SLS acts as a detergent that strips the hair of its natural oil. Those who have sensitive skin will likely find it irritating. And if you like experimenting with color, you get the added disadvantage of color loss. SLS can be used for degreasing and engine so do yourself a favor and stop using it on your scalp.

 

5. More Cold Water

Have you heard of the cold water rinse? While washing with warm water is great as it opens up the cuticle, allowing for a much deeper wash if you want to protect your scalp, a colder temperature is perfect. Like a sealant, cold water traps moisture and reseals your hair cuticle. Your hair will be more protected, breaking less and shining more.

 

Now that you know you might have been responsible for that bald patch starting to appear, it is time to cut the products stripping your hair, relax and let your locks out, and invest in products that truly help.
