    Not Washing Or Shampooing Hair Due To Shedding!

    My shed has suddenly increased phenomenonally and for no apparent reason. Like from 100 per day to 200 hairs per day. So I'm avoiding washing my hair. Washing them once in two weeks. Is this healthy? Any other way to clean hair so as to not lose hair during washing and shampooing?

    Hair Loss Concealers In Heavy Rain/sweat?

    I apologize because I'm sure this has been asked many times before, but do the concealer powders start trickling down due to rain or sweat? If not then how are you even supposed to wash them off?

    Am I Eligible For A Hair System? [pictures]

    I'm not sure about it. Also finasteride gave me ED symptoms as soon as I started it.

    Am I Eligible For A Hair System? [pictures]

    So I started shedding 150-170 hairs per day since January when I stopped Finasteride in 14 days. My hair was near perfect before that with no shedding. Haven't had a haircut since Feb. This is the sixth month now and the rate of shedding is the same. Losing 40-50 hairs in shower and around 20-30...

    Flesh Colored Scalp = Precursor For Baldness?

    So I have heard of this phenomenon but haven't found any mention of it on the internet. Usually a healthy scalp full of hair has a grey-ish color indicating perfect health (according to my observations). However you'll see that as you start to recede, the grey color begins to fade away and your...

    Side Effect Of Finasteride Or Permanent Balding?

    So I noticed thinning temples and decided to go to my Doctor. My hair were perfect, no shedding other than the fact that there was visible thinning on the temples. I was prescribed finasteride. I started my dose around mid of december 2015. Twelve days later my hair started coming off. So I stopped...

    Alternatives To Glued On Hair Systems?

    I have heard of systems that use micro-clips to attach hairpiece to already existing hair. I have started thinning rapidly so I was thinking of getting one of these before I go completely bald after which glued ones seem better. Any reviews on these? Are they easily detectable or come off...

    When should you think of getting a hairpiece?

    Okay, so my hair is shedding like crazy for past six months (after quitting finasteride in 11 days). I thought it would stop but it never did. I haven't had a haircut in a long time so the length of my hair is masking the scalp for now. So my question is: at point of of hair density or balding...

    Can using a system render the scalp unhealthy for future transplant?

    If I go for either a glue or a tape system using water-based non-toxic (hopefully) glues, and I use it for 2-3 years would it affect the scalp in any way that it might not accept transplanted hair later and render a surgery useless? Has anyone experienced this: using a system for a few years and...

    Does the glue destroy your scalp?

    I have seen some videos on youtube where the scalp seems thick and patchy. Does application of glue over a long time make your scalp like that? Is there a way to avoid that like maybe applying the glue only on the borders and not the entire area of your scalp?

    Shedding = balding?

    I was 11 days into finasteride when I started shedding like crazy. It wasn't the case before that. So I stopped the dose immediately. It's 4 months now and the shedding hasn't reduced. Also I can see my scalp now when I lift my hair. So my question is: Is this shedding the same as balding? Will...

    finasteride Shed or routine male pattern baldness behavior?

    I noticed a thinning on my temples and so decided to see the doctor. Mind you, I'm quite vain about my hair and used to run my hands through my hair constantly and never noticed any hair. Now the doctor prescribed 1mg finasteride only. I started the pills thinking I'm gonna combat the hair...
