I think my hair is starting to thin out. (Back story. About 3
years ago, my son got something stuck in the back of my hair. I tried
to remove it, failed, and ended up cutting out a small part of my
hair.) I have noticed that even with the left side left alone, as it
was only on the right side), my hair seems to be much thinner than it
was when I was younger. Any ideas on how to correct this? I had stopped taking MSN but just restarted on it. ------------- As fate would have it, my business is all about you. |

First thing you need to assess is whether or not you are eating
correctly. Poor nutrition will cause thinning hair. First
time I ever did a high-protein diet really hardcore, my hair thinned
out quite a bit. Another culprit could be stress. Also, are you taking vitamins, gelatin supplements, or even collodial minerals? They can help thicken hair up. -------------

I've had good results with MSM, daily multi vitamin, calcium and evening primrose oil. I think my thinning was hormone related. My hair is much thicker now. Oh, and I just did a Cassia obovata (neutral henna) treatment, and it really helped to thicken the hair shaft.

Balanced diet, including comprehensive supplementation helps a
lot. (Don't forget Water). I've found that Silica in the
form of Horsetail herb (equisetum arvense) reduces fallout. I
also supplement otherwise with some of the aforementioned products. Aerobic exercise helps strengthen the cardiopulmonary system, allowing your body to deliver the dietary goodies to the hungry hair follicles.
