Hope For Your Thinning Hairline
by: Camille

A: The thinning of the temples is something I’m very familiar with.

All through high school and college I wore braids on and off because I loved how easy they were. At the time I thought tight braids were the best so needless to say my hairline started fading away.
I grew it back and have a full hairline now.

What helped?

1. I stopped braiding as much and I when I did I made sure they didn’t do it tight.
2. When I got my relaxers done I’d have my edges done last so they wouldn’t be over processed.
3. I didn’t brush and comb my hairline a lot. If it got a little unruly I’d gel it and tie it down (works like a charm!).

After you start doing all these things, the best help to help re-grow a thinning temples is massaging the area every day with Organic Castor Oil.

If you can get your hands on some all you have to do is warm it up a little bit (not too hot to burn yourself). Dip your finger tips into it and massage it into your scalp.

Adding a few drops of essential oils to it can cut the smell and if you use tea tree oil it will help to stimulate your scalp circulation too.

If you can tell me more about what caused the thinning in your have I can give you even more specific tips to help out.

Traction alopecia and hormones...
by: Camille

To the first question posted...Your hair loss is caused by traction alopecia which happens when hairs are pulled so tight that they come loose from the roots. Depending on how long you've been wearing the tight braids and how much damage was done to your hair roots growing it back could take anywhere from a few weeks to a year.

The key to seeing the thin areas fill out for you are to stop wearing any and all tight braids and treat your hairlines very gently.

You can also look into taking a good multivitamin (or a quality hair vitamin) and using a scalp stimulating line of hair products like Organic root stimulator. They have serums that work well to get the hairs growing again.

To the young man with the thinning hair. Your situation is a bit different because it sounds like your hair loss is being caused by hormones. You've probably inherited a gene from one of your parents that predisposes you to hair loss.

That being the case, it's way outside the scope of my knowledge since it's a biological thing and not caused by anything you're doing or not doing to your hair.

If you really want to do something about it I would visit bosley.com and check out some of the suggestions they offer for men with thinning hair. I think they offer a free information product that you can get for more information.

I'd save the money on the over the counter stuff.

I get to understand that they don't work that well and end up costing you a lot (like you said before).

Thin temple hair due to braids
by: Tanya

The hair around my temple has been thin for so many years that I've lost track. I wore braids in my younger days for years. Now, I have let the perm go and use a texturizer. My hair is also thinning around the crown. I believe the years of perms cause that. Is there anything at this point that I can possibly use to make my hair grow back? I've tried numerous products and nothing has worked thus far.
