Solutions for Thinning Hair

- Advertisement -

In my teens, I used to have a very thick, full head of hair that I actually kind of hated. It was wavy, coarse and I had a hard time styling my mane. My best friends during that time were the barber’s thinning scissors and a straight razor. My hairline was ridiculously low that I had to periodically head to the barbershop for a trim and have the baby hairs on my forehead shaved off. Gone are those days.

As I hit my twenties, the texture of my hair changed, it became less wavy and the strands became noticeably less thick which actually made my hair easier to manage. A few years later as I entered my thirties, I noticed that not only did my hair shaft look thin and fine but my hair was also noticeably less dense. It would be flatter and harder to add volume to. Soon I had a difficult time creating styles with my hair brushed up because of the now visibly “receding” hairline, which was in stark contrast to how things were in my teens.

Oh, how we always want the things we do not have. I miss my thick hair and it has become quite a frustration. And I’m sure other men my age share the same sentiments. Research shows that men’s and women’s hair start to become thinner when they hit their twenties or thirties. Male-pattern baldness is irreversible but there are treatments and products available out there to thicken and improve the texture and density of thinning hair. It is easier to style, hair strands appear thicker and some treatments even encourage hair to grow back. I tried out a few of them with some very impressive results.
