Natural Hair Restoration

If you are looking to regrow your hair you really should consider a natural alternative to all the drugs and other procedures out there. For example there are two drugs that the big pharma companies are pushing but I don't think the potential side effects really warrant the risk in using them. For example, Finasteride which is marketed as propecia is a drug that can cause birth defects in unborn children. In fact, not only are women of child bearing age not supposed to take the drug, a pregnant woman is not allowed to even touch one of the pills. This is because the active ingredients may be absorbed through the skin and this can cause defects in the baby. This doesn't sound like a very good idea to me if you are trying to get your hair to grow again.
One thing that I have found interesting is that there is a very close tie in between male pattern baldness and male urinary tract problems. It seems that several of the drugs and natural hair restoration products that are available have an affect on both symptoms. This means there must be some sort of a tie in and it appears as though the tie in is between the testosterone metabolite DHT and the two problems. When men take drugs or natural rememdies for prostrate problems they also have a tendency to regrow hair. This is interesting in itself but it also may give you a clue as to what natural rememdies you can take to get a benefit in your hair growth.
There also seems to be a correlation between DHT and any female hair loss treatment. Most people don't think that testosterone can affect hair loss in females because it is the male sex hormone but actually this hormone can be found in men and women. Just like estrogen is considered a female hormone but it can be found in both sexes. Increased levels of DHT seem to affect both men and women when it comes to hair loss and baldness.

Hair Replacement System Tips

What is a hair replacement system you may ask. Well you probably would recognize the term toupee' a lot more readily. The problem that hair piece manufacturers have come up with is that toupee's have turned into a comedy routine. You almost can't even say the word without the vision of a man with his hair falling off into his soup and flipping into his face. Also, don't forget the vision of the man diving into the pool and his hair floating away looking like some sort of sea animal. They just get a real bad rap. Some of it is deserved because they really didn't do a very good job of making ones that fit in the early days. Also there is the item about how they look. Even today you can see men wearing a hair piece that is obviously fake.
It is interesting the hair is such an important part of how a man is viewed but that really is the case. Some researchers believe it has to do with our ancestors needs to procreate in such a way that the best genes would be passed on to the next generation. A full head of hair indicated health and so the females would pick these males as their mates which gave their genes the best chance for staying around.
This goes a long way to explaining why hair replacement systems are important to a man's self esteem and why men still purchase them even though there is a chance for embarrassment.

Hair Restoration For Women

One of the things I quickly learned was that women have had it much worse than men when it comes to treating baldness. For years, the only possibilities open to women were wigs. Not only was this expensive but they also usually looked less that real. This was still better than the alternative though.
When women are having a bad hair life there is not much that can be said. My grandmother used to wear wigs and everyone knew it but nobody new why. Well one day I saw her without the wig and it was obvious why she wore one. She have very thinning hair and at that time, in the 1906's, there weren't many alternatives for female hair loss. Hair restoration for women really had not taken off yet because of that time had no other options than to wear a wig.
Times have really changed now. There are currently on the market all kinds of methods that can help women to regrow their hair and feel good about themselves again. You should check them out.

My Hiar Growth Journey

You may be wondering why I am writing a blog about hair restoration. Well I have a very good reason. You see I got bald early and then went through hell trying to get hair to grow again. Not only did I try every hair growth remedy under the sun, and some not only didn't work they even burnt my head, but I also tried all kinds of other possible ways to get my hair to grow back.
Now the question begs itself why didn't I just shave my whole head like Bruce Willis or somebody like that? The reason is I have a really ugly head. It does not look good and is shaped funny. The only help I had was the hair that used to be there or wearing hats. Hats aren't as big an item as they used to be so that really didn't seem like a very good option to me.
Thus I kept looking and finally found exactly what I was looking for. Now I am not saying you will be happy with what I found but I will tell you about everything I tried and whether it worked or not. Most of the time not. Stay with me for an informative ride.
