Hair Update: December 4, 2023

Another sad update, it is almost the end of the year and my hair is even worse.

It was about this time that I added scalp massage and focused more on the blood flow aspect.

Strangely Minoxidil stopped working for me, and the lotion just seemed to do nothing. I refocused on dermarolling, since I stopped for a while. Adding massage and scalp combing to the mix to see if it made a difference.

I did some more research and learned of this band of muscle that goes all the way around your head. It was really quite interesting, as the theory goes, this band of muscle somehow restricts the flow to your scalp. Which made sense to me, because why is only the hairs on the scalp affect by DHT and not ALL the hairs on your head.

So my theory is, it is a combination of DHT attacking the hair follicles and a restriction in the blood flow which causes you to lose hair Especially diffused thinning, since it seems to affect the entire area all at once. Massaging your head, in theory, should flush out the DHTs and move that blood around to other areas? Again, just a theory.
