    As a female, if you are facing thinning and losing hair, you are probably pretty stressed by it. However, you will not be worrying and causing more hair to drop once you understand some facts about female hair loss.

    You see, in many cases, female hair loss is just a temporary occurrence and hence, finding a hair loss solution to it is relatively easy.



    Androgenetic alopecia is the hereditary form of baldness that affects 50 percent of men, and some women after 40. Female hair loss usually starts after menopause although it can begin earlier. The main reason for this is that estrogen levels decline. Hormonal changes cause hair to thin.



    It is comforting to note that other than androgenetic alopecia, the most common cause of hair loss in women, is a result of metabolic and hormonal changes. Thus, the hair loss is usually temporary. Also, unlike men, women rarely become totally bald. However, what females generally experience is the thinning of their hair.



    For example, in the case of pregnancy, hair loss is temporary and should stop about 6 months after birth. When a woman is pregnant, a large amount of oestrogen is produced causing the hair follicles to go into their growth phase. Once the baby is born, the woman’s hormonal balance is restored. The reverse now happens with the hair follicles going into a hair loss phase.



    While nothing much can be done to prevent hair loss during this period, applying hair tonic to hasten hair re-growth can be a helpful solution.



    Crash diets leading to rapid weight loss over a short period of time prompts excessive hair loss.



    Physical and emotional stress can cause hair loss but this usually only occurs after a prolonged period of time and in extreme cases. Once stress levels are restored to normal levels, hair loss should stop. Thus, a good hair loss solution is to find ways to reduce stress!



    Certain drugs can also cause hair to shed. The most common medical treatment that causes hair loss is chemotherapy. The drug medication attacks the hair cells, causing hair loss from the scalp. Certain prescription drugs (for thyroid hormone deficiency, diabetes and lupus) and dieting supplements are also causes of hair loss. Once these drug medications are stopped, the hair loss problem should disappear.



    Other stresses to the hair may include frequent dyeing and chemicals eg. perming solutions applied to the hair. Generally, healthy hair can undergo these treatments without showing signs of stress, if they are not done too often. But if hair is not allowed a chance to recover from the constant application of hair chemicals, then it becomes brittle and starts to break off. Hair loss treatment products to help strengthen the follicles should help when applied to the scalp.



    Once you understand what is happening to your hair, then seek out the right hair loss solution.

    I have some more information about Hair Loss.

    Hair Transplantation Basics for beginners

    Hair transplantation is today considered one of the most convenient and affordable methods of medical hair restoration. No wonder it is so popular among the balding masses, though there are several alternatives to the hair transplantation method of medical hair restoration.

    History of hair transplantation:- Hair transplantation surgery at first conducted in Japan around the 1930s, using small grafts to treat damaged eyebrows and lashes. After some time one American dermatologist Orentreich proved that donor grafts not only survived in the recipient areas, but actually thrived there, just as if they were natural hair. At first all surgeons transplanted only small grafts, measuring not more than 2 to 4 mm. But subsequently surgeons in Brazil came up with “micrografting” and “minigrafting” techniques, which are now familiar to us as follicular unit transplantation.

    Pre-surgery precautions:- Before hair transplantation can begin the patient gets to choose between single and multiple sessions. The surgeon also provides a list of dos and don’ts he/she must stay off alcohol and medicines not prescribed by him.

    Post-operative care:- The operated area must not be exposed to sunlight for some days after the surgery and shampoos and chemicals shunned. It sometimes happens that the displaced hair starts falling off from the recipient zone. This should not frighten you, it being part of the process of hair restoration. Regrowth resumes a few months later. After hair transplantation the patient loses hair only in areas where no hair had been transplanted. Some people start with medication, and not finding it effective enough move on to the hair transplantation treatment. It is the only permanent method of hair restoration on the scalp.


    Cost of hair transplants:- The cost of hair transplants depends on where you get it done and the surgeon’s fees. The average cost of hair transplants ranges between $3 and $10 per graft and the number of grafts needed depends on the size of the balding area. Usually patients need between 500 and 2000 grafts, their cost ranging between $1500 to $20,000. The medical charges in hair transplantation treatment depends on how skilled the surgeon is and where you get it done.

    Hair Million, excellent product



    My wife was losing a bunch of hair a day, and we were alarmed.
    I got from my friend a product called Hair Million, which is solely made of chinese herbs and manufactured in the US. It is sold only through an online vendor.

    Just after 2-3 days of taking the herbal pills, my wife's hair loss stopped, and her brittle hair got noticeably stronger. I heard from other people that they got positive effect also and there was no known side effects. No wonder the herbal ingredients are all healthy natural ones. Some folks got their hair grown back after extended period.

    This is a great product but mysteriously under-represented in the market. If some able marketeers or advertiser picks up this product, I am sure there is a great money making opportunity because it will be almost monopoly situation.

    cheers,

    Arnold
