One of the problems that we should not ignore in summer is our hair loss. Hair regrowth is most effective in the summer due to the increased growing capacity of the hair in the warmth of the sun. Hair Regrowth is far quicker in the warm summer and so this is the time that you should be concentrating on getting your hair back.

Sure make the most of summer for fun and adventure, but never fail to underestimate how valuable the sun is to your hair and how much quicker you will experience hair regrowth in the summer.

The first step in stopping hair loss, is to identify why your hair falls out. There are a number of reasons for this, but the main reason for hair loss in both men and women can be attributed to DHT.

To stop the formation of DHT, it is best to use a recommended and tested treatment rather than a home remedy. Home remedies  for hair loss, usually increase blood circulation to the affected area, but do not stop the formation of the DHT. In order to  permanently stop hair loss, it is necessary to stop the formation of DHT.

Hair loss can be effectively stopped by the use of natural products which have no harmfull side effects. Prescription medications tend to have some harmfull side effects and some of these prescription medications are mainly effective due to the increase in blood flow to the scalp and not due to their ability to stop the formation of DHT.

I thoroughly recommend both provillus and procerin as being excellent in stopping hair loss and for weffective hair regrowth. Do not wait for the hair loss will not go away by itself. By the early treatment of your hair loss, you increase the chances of successful regrowth immensely.

Typical onslaught of hair loss in women

Recent research has shown that female pattern baldness is also largely attributed to DHT, which was previously known to be the main cause of hair loss in women. DHT is a biologically active metabolite of the male hormone testosterone. Previously this was not really linked to female hair loss as it was generally thought that in order for the male hormone testosterone to play a part in females, there would be an increase in the male hormone levels which would be accompanied by an increase in facial hair and a subsequent lowering of the voice.

The new research has proved that this is not necessary the case, as a temporary dip in the level of female hormones, which can be caused by a multitude of factors including menopause, is sufficient to give the male hormone a more powerful position, allowing the formation of DHT which in turn leads to female pattern hair loss or balding.

Hair loss in women is far more tragic than that in men. Many men are considered to be more sexy when they start to lose their hair or go completely bald. Now for women, unless you are Demi Moore, this is not the case. Most of a womens beauty and intitial attraction is through their hair and the hair style that she adopts. Your most groomed feature of your body is your hair. Many people recognise you from your hair style and the length and character of your hair. Your hair is your identity.

When you lose your hair you are losing your identity and this will cause a feeling of low self esteem and a great loss of confidence in yourself.

Hair loss in women can be stopped and it can be regrown if treated properly. Through the use of a good hair loss treatment, hair regrowth can be achieved and you will be able to regain your hair and your confidence again.

My preferred treatment for womens hair loss is a product called Sepherin. This product is totally natural and is achieving incredible results in combatting hair loss in women.

Provillus is also a great product, and only loses a mark or two, due to the inclusion of a little minoxidal in their formula, which prevents it from being a 100% natural product. Links to provillus can be found on the right side of this page.

Whatever you do, treat your hair loss now, before it affects your beauty and confidence levels.

The products that we use on our hair, can contribute to hair thinning, and so care should be taken over the choice of products and treatments that we use.

Treatments that we apply to our hair, should not contain any harsh chemicals. These harsh chemicals damage the hair strands and cause brittleness and breaking of the hair. Bleaches and many hair colourants will damage your hair and should be avoided.

Hair treatments that leave a oily residue on the scalp, often tend to block the pores of the hair follicles, which can also cause damage. When using any of these type of treatments, do not leave the treatment on your hair too long and make sure that you wash your hair and scalp thoroughly afterwards with a mild shampoo to remove all remaining residues.

Always use a mild shampoo and rinse your hair well with clean water after washing. Do not wash your hair too often, but rather rinse your hair with clean water on a regular basis, which will result in the need for you to wash your hair,  less frequently.

When possible, soak a couple a sprigs of fresh rosemary in warm water. Use this rosemary water to rinse your hair. It will provide extra shine to your hair, whilst also increasing blood circulation to the scalp.  Lack of sufficient blood circulation to the scalp results in decreased nutrition to the hair and subsequent hair thinning.

From my point of view, sexyness is not so much a part of how you actually look, but more the confidence that you radiate. Someone who is confident, will automatically radiate this feeling all around them and these vibes will be picked up by all in the immediate area. If you are not confident, you will not be noticed.

A bald person who is ashamed of their lack of hair, automatically has a reduced confidence level, which shows. However, someone who has no problem with their baldness, can radiate confidence to all around and will be seen or perceived as being more sexy. It has nothing to do with the amount of hair or lack of hair, but all to do with the confidence that you have through it. Look at Demi Moore. She is a beautiful and sexy woman and when she shaved off all her hair, she did not lose one ounce of her sexyness.

 Many men, when they start to lose their hair, feel that they are no longer as good looking as before and therefore lose their confidence in themselves. If you have any of these feelings, then my immediate recommendation is to start a good treatment for hair loss.

Others have no problem when their hair start to thin and do not lose their confidence and hence their sexyness. These are usually the type of men that as soon as hair loss starts to occur, they just rush right in and shave the rest off. Nothing stops their confidence levels and hence their sexyness.

The worst that a man can do, when they start to lose hair, is to make attempts to cover up. These attempts are usually made by combing the longer hair over the bald patches or using hair loss concealers such as toppik and organin. Yuch! What happens in these cases is that number one – they look terrible and all visual sexyness is lost. Number 2, the fact that you are trying to conceal your bald spot, makes you continuosly aware of the problem and it will erode your confidence levels.

In order to remain in peak sexyness when hair loss starts to occur,  face it and either treat it with a good hair loss treatment, or shave it, but never try to conceal it.

The most common type of hair loss experienced, is called androgenic alopecia. This is also called pattern baldness and as this is most frequently experienced by men, we mostly hear of male pattern baldness. This condition can also be experienced by women and lately more and more women are becoming prone to hair thinning. In women it is referred to as female pattern baldness.

Pattern baldness is often attributed to generic causes and so many do not realise that it is treatable and that the lost hair can be regrown. Hair regrowth is usually achieved through the use of a hair loss treatment. You are able to choose between natural products for hair loss such as Procerin or to a degree Provillus, or to drugs such as minoxidal or Rogaine which contains finasteride, to mention just a few.

My personal choice is to use the natural products for hair thinning, as these products have no known side effects. Known side effects for other drug treatments for hair loss include loss of libido and possible erectile dysfunction.

Thinning hair is no joke and as soon as you notice that your hair is thinning, it is advisable to seek medical advice and to embark on a treatment to stop and reverse the hair loss process.

 When your hair starts thinning, you start to grow concerned and immediately start to try and cover the hair loss. This can be done in a manner of ways and often a small change of hair style covers the problem for awhile. The only problem is that even if you have successfully concealed your thinning hair, subconciously you know that it is there. What if someone notices that my hair is thinner. They will think I am going bald. What will they think of me? Maybe you have not yet asked yourself these questions, but they are there in your subconcious, attacking your confidence levels.

Slowly but surely, the hair thinning process continues and slowly but surely so does the erosion of your confidence and self image. Then one day someone innocently asks you where has all your hair gone and Boom, it is a major blow to your confidence again.

Whilst there are people that have an abundance of confidence and are able to just go straight ahead and shave off all their hair and not worry about what others may say, it is only a very small percentage of people who are able to do this confidently and most would rather keep their hair.

Have you ever noticed before that when you enter into a business meeting and are all dressed up in a great looking suit, that you automatically feel that much more confident and assertive than had you been in jeans and tackies. Hair is the suit of our head and when the suit is tacky, the confidence is far less than when the suit is smart and immaculate. Have a look again at the example of Donald Trump. He is always dressed in an immaculate suit and his hair is always immaculately in place. Even if you did not know that he is Donald Trumpo and he walked into a room, he automatically commands a certain respect just from his appearance.

When your hair starts thinning you begin to lose the respect that others would automatically give you through your own loss of self confidence. Should your hair start thinning, do not try to conceal it, but rather enter into a hair loss treatment as soon as possible as this will help with hair regrowth, and return your initial confidence levels to the peak condition that should be in order for you to be sucessful.
