Hair Loss: When Appearance Is Everything!
By Camry A.Mass
It is natural to lose some hair on a daily basis, this is part of the hair renewal process. For combination of reasons, however, hair roots and follicles can eventually begin to clog with chemicals and other scalp build up including dirt and oils. This can result in increased DHT buildup and thinning hair, balding and eventually no hair growing at all. Without any new hair regrowth, bald spots begin to appear on the scalp.

Hair Loss is unfortunately looked upon in a negative light in today's society where appearance and looks are crucial. If not checked in time, you might fall prey to this unfortunate judgment.

Like other studies, the German findings point to excess androgen receptors as a key target for saving hair. Designing a drug to block these receptors may keep the need for toupees at bay, but they could also interfere with male hormones that men need to be men. Ideally, a topical cream could be developed that blocks just the male hormones responsible for shiny scalps. In the meantime, men concerned about hair loss should not give up hope. "The research raises the chance that something can happen." said Cotsarelis.

If your hair up north is heading south, you may have considered seeing a doctor to help you cover your shiny scalp or have even taken matters into your own hands. But the medications don’t always work, and toupees can look fake, so what’s a guy with a receding hair line to do?

Ensuring a Covered Scalp

Whenever a patient has sudden hair loss, he or she should see a board-certified dermatologist, preferably one with experience in this area. Even when the doctor is able to determine the source of the stress, such as with a mom who just gave birth, a father coping with the recent loss of a child or a young woman who stopped taking birth control pills, additional testing should be done, says Pelle.

hormone levels and thyroid function. Any abnormalities may slow the re-growth of hair. Low iron levels, for example, is particularly common in young women, says Pelle, and by taking an iron supplement or increasing the amount of red meat in one's diet, a young woman can reduce the amount of time she has to worry about her hair.

Unfortunately, telogen effluvium may also reveal a woman who has a genetic predisposition to lose her hair. Much like male-pattern baldness, these women will lose their hair from the top of their heads and not be able to re-grow it without more extensive medical interventions.

But if you notice a clump of hair in your drain, the worst thing to do is worry about this extreme case of hair loss. If you do have telogen effluvium, worry only causes more stress, possibly making your hair loss worse.

Can Hair Cloning Be the Magic Solution?

A company in Britain claims to have found the answer: hair cloning. With a procedure that reproduces new hair from the healthy follicles on your head, Interytex claims to have successfully implanted cloned hair cells into five of seven patients, giving these lucky guys a full head of hair. There are, as of yet, no published results, but the company says that it is now moving on to further trials on men with male pattern baldness and even hopes to try it on women facing bare scalps from alopecia.
