I'm experiencing a white beard issue, and it's quite concerning. I first noticed a couple of white hairs about two years ago, but now I'm dealing with over 40 or 50 on my face. Is there anything specific that's causing this, and how can I manage or prevent it from getting worse?

Question

I've been noticing a lot of that white powder-like stuff on my hair lately, and my hair fall seems to be getting worse too. I can't help but wonder what these symptoms could mean. Could you give me some insight into what might be going on here?

Question

Hi there, I've got a mole on my face that's been bothering me. It seems to be growing and there's even a hair coming out of it. I've also had a couple of keloids before, right on my sternum, which I got after shaving my chest about five years ago. They're the only ones I've ever had, so I'm not sure if I have a tendency for keloids or if it was a one-time thing. I'm super worried about the possibility of getting a keloid if I decide to remove the mole. What do you think the chances are of that happening? I've been reading up on mole removal methods and I'm stuck between choosing a complete excision or a radiofrequency shave excision. Do you have any thoughts on which might be better, especially in terms of reducing the risk of keloid development? Also, with the radiofrequency shave excision, is there a chance the mole might come back? Any advice would be really appreciated!

Question

I'm living in Chennai and I'm worried about the water here since it's really salty and it seems to be affecting my hair a lot. I'm noticing that I'm losing about 50 strands every time I shower, and it's freaking me out because I didn't have this problem when I was back in my hometown. Plus, my scalp has been getting super itchy. Could you recommend a good shampoo for this situation? Also, any diet tips to help strengthen my hair would be great.
