IF you wanna read the MAIN PART, scroll down to the bit in capitals.
So i came onto this board a few days ago, cause i noticed some hair loss, not really thinning, and i believe i am losing hair, not because of genetics, 18 is far too young an age to lose hair, and even through genetics i would have to start losing about 35 - 40. I refuse to accept the fact that i lose hair now... genetics for male hair loss kicks in at 35 - 40 and genetics it is.. I believe a lot of others my age may experience the same problem.
So i had some scalp pain as well, which led to me research into a bit, i found out that scalp pain around the crown was reported quite a lot when there was movement of hair, and apparently its a condition called Trichodynia, i checked up on that, i found a medicalhealthwebsite/forum where a man a few years ago posted up something about his hair loss, he was quite young, in response a doctor said that he is not experiencing 'hairloss' as a genetically induced condition but rather a psychological one... i read that quite a few times, and i believe that could be a cause, psychological conditions can cause enzymes and hormones to go racing around in your body...
NOW HERE IS THE MAIN PART:
I said to hell with this, and took a look at what i thought was causing my problems(thank God, he showed me), it was my bloody shampoo. It contains some messed up ingredient called "sodium laureth sulphate" also known as "sodium lauryl sulfate" and many other names for it actually... so back to google again, and this time there were MANY search results from health websites to wikipedia, it is a harsh skin irritant, and one particular website i read it has a half life of 7.5 days, i dont know much about chemistry, but that means it will stay active for 7.5 days before it breaks down into another chemical, this is what happens in radioactive elements(not necessarily bad, but in this case it is!) 7.5 days of causing bullshit in ur system.
My advice: OIL your hair! all that moisture sucked out, is causing your scalp to be very messed up, oil it well, coconut oil is good, almond oil is good, even Johnsons baby oil(recommended), it's not expensive, at least for about 10 days do this, to counter the effects, im not sure if it does counter, but i notice my mum always puts a lot of oil, and my grandparents always talked about how important oiling was. Im gonna further look into this and post my findings here. Oh btw, has anyone found this out here before?
