I've been using serum for around 4 months, and now my hair feels really weak. They fall out even when I just run my hand through them. I think they've lost their strength. I realized I was applying the serum wrong, directly on the scalp before combing. I've stopped using it now, but I'm worried. What can I do to speed up the process of strengthening my hair again?

View allI've noticed something odd ever since I shaved my head. I've got way more white hair follicles now, like around 150, whereas before there were just a few, maybe around 10. I'm wondering if my theory about this being connected is right, or if it's just a random coincidence. Do you have any advice or suggestions on how to prevent this?
Your observation is intriguing. Let's explore possible explanations: *Possible Causes* 1. *Stress-induced hair growth*: Shaving or tonsuring can cause physical stress, leading to an increase in white hair growth due to the body's response to stress. 2. *Hormonal fluctuations*: Changes in hormone levels, such as an increase in cortisol, can affect hair growth and pigmentation. 3. *Increased blood flow*: Shaving or tonsuring can increase blood flow to the scalp, potentially stimulating hair growth. 4. *Pre-existing condition*: You may have had a pre-existing condition, such as vitiligo or alopecia, that was exacerbated by the shaving or tonsuring process. *Tips to Prevent or Reduce White Hair Growth* 1. *Reduce stress*: Engage in stress-reducing activities like meditation, yoga, or deep breathing exercises. 2. *Maintain a balanced diet*: Eat a diet rich in vitamins and minerals, particularly those that promote hair growth like biotin, vitamin B12, and omega-3 fatty acids. 3. *Use gentle hair care products*: Avoid harsh chemicals and use gentle, sulfate-free shampoos. 4. *Protect your hair from sun damage*: Use a hat or a hair serum with SPF to protect your hair from UV damage. 5. *Consider natural remedies*: Certain natural remedies like amla oil, coconut oil, and rosemary essential oil may help promote hair growth and reduce white hair.

I'm dealing with a fungal infection between my thighs and buttocks area. My doctor recommended Ebernet, but unfortunately, it hasn't helped much. Do you have any other ointment suggestions that might be more effective? I'm worried about the discomfort and would appreciate any help you can provide.

I'm 26 years old and I've been dealing with Alopecia Areata. My dad's bald and I'm starting to see the bald areas emerging too, especially on the crown of my head. My hair seems to be falling out in a pattern more and more these days. Is there anything that could help me avoid going completely bald, at least for the next five years?
I recommend you start using Minoxidil solution 5% twice daily on the affected areas. Additionally, you can take Finasteride 1mg tablet once daily to help prevent further hair loss and promote hair regrowth. These medications can help slow down the progression of balding and maintain your hair for at least 5 years.
