The other day I got an email from someone who said she noticed a lot of thinning hair in her bang area — so much so that you can see the white part of her scalp where her bangs meet at the top of her head. He asked me what could be the reason and what should he do about it. I will tell you what I told him in the following article.
Things that can cause your hair to thin in the front: The first thing I asked her was whether she had noticed any increase in the amount of hair she was shedding or losing. As bangs are often more sparse to begin with, this may be one of the first places you notice when it’s all thinning or shedding. And, telogen effluvium (TE) is a condition that is caused by changes in your body. Hormone changes in women, stress, pregnancy, giving birth, discontinuing birth control pills, thyroid problems, and other things are common culprits. Usually, it takes a few months between stress or changes in your body before you start to notice more hair loss. Like I said, bangs are where you’ll first start to see the thinning because there’s less hair in that area to begin with. If you have this condition, you’ll often know it because you’ll be losing hair all over, not just the front. And, you’ll notice more fabric on the floor, on your clothes, and in your brush.
Genetic Hair Thinning in the Front: Men’s genetic thinness most often manifests itself in the temples when we are talking about the front of the skull. However, women often notice thinning in their bang area. It is also caused by hormones, but it is often a lack or excess of hormones or not hormones at all. This is a sensitivity to the normal presence of hormones that increase as we age. This doesn’t happen with everyone. Generally speaking, you will have a genetic predisposition toward this sensitivity and the front of the scalp (as well as the crown, temples and part line) are particularly susceptible to it.
What you can do about front end thinning: First of all, you need to figure out why this is happening. If it’s normal TE, it’s usually just time you give birth or things like stress. However, if it is due to a medical or other condition that you can treat and improve then you should definitely do so. This is important because the condition is unlikely to improve if you don’t treat it or treat its true cause.
If this is a genetic issue we’re talking about, then you need to work on reducing your sensitivity to the androgens that are the cornerstone of the issue. Many people would try to eliminate their presence from the scalp, but this is virtually impossible. Your scalp will keep producing them and as long as the sensitivity persists, you will still have a problem. It’s far better to work on reducing them (if your levels are too high to be healthy) and reducing sensitivity.
In addition, you’ll want to check and then reduce any swelling. Often, the inflammatory process is present in both TE and androgen-driven loss. There are many natural substances that work well for this. (tea tree oil, emu oil, lavender, etc.) Lastly, you’ll want to really focus on stimulating your scalp to regenerate healthy hair in that area. Once androgen treatment is underway, you should pounce on this window of opportunity to stimulate the follicles because the longer they are not producing enough regrowth, the more difficult it becomes to restart the process. Is.
Meanwhile, there are also powders that can cover the white part of your scalp such as Topik and Kuvre. They help. And, you can try growing out your bangs so that the area where the scalp meets the bangs is not so noticeable. But, these things will only take you so far. Ultimately, you have to take the next step and find out what’s causing it and fix it.
