rambot gugur

Sekarang ni aku tengah buat treatment kulit kepala sebab rambut aku dah mula gugur. Umur aku ni muda lagi... Rasa tak best lak bila rambut aku dah gugur ni... 1st stage aku gi salun, aku kene charge RM278. Aku beli ubat ape ntah yang tarok kat kepala. Kasi cuci kepala aku. Buang semua kelemumur. Pastu stage kedua lak aku kene charge RM35 sebab guna balance yang ade.

2 kali aku gi buat treatment, ada perkembangan positif sebab rambut aku dah tak kerap gugur. Aku guna shampoo yg berharga RM45. 1st time aku beli shampoo yang mahal camtu. Sebab nak elokkan rambut punya pasal, aku pon beli la shampoo tu. Tiap kali aku mandi, aku guna shampoo tu.

Lepas ni aku kena stanby RM450 untuk beli satu set ubat penggalak tumbuh rambut. huhu... Nasib baik la aku ada duit lagi. Aku baru je planning nak beli kereta. Takpe laa... Yang penting diri aku ni kena jaga dulu.

Dalam dok surf internet carik info pasal hair loss ni, aku jumpa satu info yang menarik untuk dikongsi sama-sama...

• We each have about 100 000 hairs on the scalp
• It is normal to lose 50–100 hairs from the head each day
• Each hair on the head grows for about 5 years before being shed
• Eyebrow hairs grow for only 10 weeks
• Scalp hair grows at a rate of about 1 cm (just under half an inch) a month
• A survey has shown that about 7.9 million men and 1.6 million women in the UK have hair loss problems
• Each year, American men spend about $900 million on efforts to regrow hair
• In the USA and UK, there has not been a bald President or Prime Minister since the television age began

Common beliefs – true or false?

‘Some hairstyles can cause hair loss’
True. Styles that put tension on the hairs – such as tight ponytails, plaits or corn-rows – can cause hair loss. Winding hair tightly onto rollers (particularly heated rollers) can have the same damaging effect.

‘Brushing the hair 100 times a day will stimulate the circulation and prevent hair loss’
False. Vigorous brushing is more likely to injure the hairs and make the problem worse.

‘Hair needs to breathe, so wigs and toupees worsen loss of hair’
False. Hair does not need to breathe. Only the root of the hair is alive and this gets its oxygen from the blood in the scalp. Wigs and hairpieces will damage hair only if they are too tight.

‘Frequent shampooing makes hair fall out’
False. Shampooing simply gets rid of the hairs that have already fallen out.

‘Blow-drying and heated brushes can worsen hair loss’
True. The reason is that extreme heat damages the proteins in the hairs, making them fragile and liable to break off. Brushing the hair during blow-drying causes more damage. Careless use of heated brushes can even burn the scalp, so that the hair follicles are permanently damaged in that area.

‘Protein-containing conditioners and shampoos nourish the hair and help it to grow’
False. Protein-containing conditioners only temporarily fill in defects on the surface of the hair shaft, making it smoother and thicker.

‘Hair dyes, perms and hairsprays worsen hair loss’
False. Hair dyes, perms and hairsprays do not affect thinning hair. Perms and hairsprays can help to disguise the problem.

‘If your father has a full head of hair, you will not go bald’
False. A tendency to baldness is inherited and probably involves a combination of genes. So you are not automatically in the clear even if your father has a full head of hair. It is not true, as sometimes claimed, that only genes from the mother’s side are involved.

‘Baldness means that you are more likely to have a heart attack’
Partly true. In 1999, doctors at Harvard Medical School found that men who had lost hair at the crown of the head had a 32% increased chance of coronary heart disease. Hair loss at the front of the head (a receding hairline) hardly increased the risk at all. So if you have baldness at the top of your head, you should stop smoking, eat healthily, have your blood pressure checked and do some exercise.

‘Low levels of zinc in the body are a reason for hair loss’
Probably false. There is no evidence that low zinc levels cause hair loss in people taking a balanced diet or that zinc supplements improve hair loss.

‘Stress can cause hair loss’
True. Scientists have now identified some chemicals that are produced in the body during periods of stress, which can affect hair growth (Journal of Investigative Dermatology 2004;123:455–7).

‘It is normal to lose hair from our early 30s’
True. A person aged 20–30 years typically has 615 hair follicles per square centimetre. The number falls to 485 by 50 years of age and to 435 at 80–90 years of age. Also each hair is thinner. So, with ageing, hair becomes both finer and sparser.
