Hair Loss Progression Can Be Slowed Down

Hair loss progression is something we all face. Some more than others. With proper care, a person can slow down the slow and steady thinning.

What is Hair Loss Progression?

Hair loss. It is not just something for one gender over the other. Both males and females can experience it. After all, it is passed down.

I have talked about this in an earlier post. In this post I would like to look at this deeper.

There is what we call a hair cycle. in 90 percent of the time we are in a growth phase known as anagen. The hair follicle is pushing out and is noticeable. Then we have the remaining 10 percent seen as the holding or resting phase. This is the Telogen phase. Up to 100 percent of the telogen hairs are what falls out each day. This mass of hair is soon to be replaced by new hair.

As we age our hair becomes progressively shorter and finer and at some point stops to rest for a while. It may even stop growing all together and we see baldness setting in.

Treatments For Hair Loss Progression.

Favorable Treatments

There are some products on the market. I will mention three. Not because they are the only ones, but because they seem somewhat helpful in slowing hair loss progression.

The first one I will mention is Minoxidil. This medicine will prolong the growth phase of the hair follicle. when a woman uses it it could slow down or stop her hair loss. For men it may reduce hair loss. It takes several months for this to take effect and only lasts as long as you are taking the Minoxidil.

The second one is called Finasteride. It can slow hair-loss progression and may even increase hair growth. But it may take up to a year to show any benefit. And you must keep it up.

In fact, all three need to be kept up. Since there is no cure that makes the hair loss preventable, take your choice. Do you want hair on your head or baldness?

The third is Provillus. It is a shampoo. It can also be found in a vitamin. form. it is well tolerated and I would say is the best hair loss treatment.

I am not just saying that because I am an affilaite of the company that handles this product and get a commission if you use my link and go in and buy. I am saying this because I like things that work and don’t have gross side effects.

Unfavorable Treatments

Of course, there are treatments that have not been proven to work at all. And I don’t know why people would even consider these.

There are the use of vitamins to slow hair loss. Provillus is not one of those. These vitamins afre a waste of money since once you start to experience hair loss you can’t restore what age is doing to you body. Not completely.

And then there are the people who feel plasma injection will restore what is no longer there.

Nor will acupuncture help. That is just too gross to think of needles being stuck in the head to stimulte growth.

Lastly you can’t stimulate hair growth by a scalp massage. Sounds nice, but it won’t work.

Conclusion

Don’t waste your money on things that may not work. Your hair loss is handed down through your family. You can slow it down. You will have hair loss progression so you should just enjoy the journey. Buy Provillus since everyone has to wash their hair. And I will see you in the next post.

Surviving Covid-19

A year later and we are surviving Covid-19. That is, if you call a shut down in California and the mandate imposed on people to mask up surviving.

Well, I don’t. I see it as allowing fear to dictate your actions. To some that may be surviving Covid-19. But at what cost?

The Cost Of Survival

I see a loss of freedom. Not just the freedom to make our own decision knowing the facts but also the lost of the freedom to decide when and where we want to associate with other human beings.

Therefore it is true that we have made it into 2021 and now have a vaccine being given to fight back. But many have lost jobs and lives. We see businesses close because some politician has told us we are super spreaders.

2020 we were given a new disease. This disease, we were told by the President of that time to ignore. He told us it was something carried by travelers to China who brought it back and spread it by droplets in their breath.

But now it is 2021 and we can fight back. We have a new vaccine which we should be receiving. It will be a process and it will be done.

We Are Surviving

Throughout the past ten months , we have tried such things as masks and distance and staying away from crowds. It has brought about loneliness and depression and suicide. All in the name of surviving.

In an earlier posting I also discussed this subject.

A person must in 2021 be able to live a life of dignity and good health. Getting your vaccine when it is available to you is a good step.

We need to be surviving covid-19 not by living in fear of something we can subdue and control but by ourselves being in control of our life.

Covid-19 Is Not The End

As I have been saying, Covid -19 is not a virus which is not treatable or even a death sentence.. A person can and will survive. Even after getting the vaccine you will need to mask up until the level of safety is reached some call herd immunity.

By now face masks work. The better ones are multilayer. You may get 95 percent effectiveness with several layers Keep up the hand washing and be sure to check on the use of hand sanitizers..

You can and will be active in surviving Covid-19.

Exercise During The Pandemic

We are still in a form of lockdown since we still have no vaccine distribution plan directly, it seems to me. Too many first responders seem to be turning down their place in line. This is causing the vials of vaccine out there to be wasted. Vials that would better be used to vaccinate those of us who want to be protected.

But there is also another idea we can be doing at this time. To stay in good health we need to exercise during the pandemic.

We can exercise during the pandemic. Exercise is important at any time. And you don’t have to do it in groups. In fact, it is best done in groups of one. When you exercise you lower the chance of infection.

To start off, I would like to share with you a video I saw on You Tube. It will start off the discussion on the right foot.

Some Exercises To Start

It is important that we stay with the plan. There is so much we can do that doesn’t require much space or other people. Let me suggest a few.

First Suggestion

You can do Push Ups. A simple exercise which I am sure you were exposed to in gym class during your time of education.

You can do this in the what is called girls way or boys way. I am not trying to be sexist.

The boys way if normal. DOwn on the group. Supported by your arms and legs. Up–down. Up–down.

Girls way seems to be kneeing and only the upper body is brought to the ground and pushed up.

Second Suggestion

Okay. There is another good muscle building movement. That is the old Pull Up.

You use a door frame for this one. Grab it and pull yourself up for as many times as you wish. Feel that sweat and strain.

Third Suggestion

We need to stay active. Squats . You will find this one good for the legs. Don’t strain but go easy. Exercise should be hard but fun.

Fourth Suggestion

This seems to be a close movement to the last one. It is called a Dip.

Body movement. I think that is an important thing to be involved in at this point in time.

A Fifth Suggestion

This one that will be listed is my favorite since it is done outside in the moving air. You don’t need to hide yourself behind a curtain to do.

It is Walking. Add to this a couple Lunges from time to time and you have a well planned workout.

Sixth Suggestion

And as you walk and lunge you can be doing Step-Ups using the side walk beside you.

Watch your balance and don’t fall. This will mean you are steady as you are in motion.

Why Exercise?

Hold on. All this sounds good. But we are not allowed out without masks and must stay a respectable distance from other people.

Did I say anything about doing this with other people or in a group? I don’t think I did. This is, so far, only done by you, alone.

And why are you doing this? Well, I would hope to feel more energized.

As you can see in the above video there are many reasons for exercise during this period.

I hope you will get on the program. And I will see you on the other side.

Reach For The Better Life Style

Reach for the better life style.. In fact, I would bet that you wish to have a better life style. It is possible.

Steps To a Better Life Style

As I was saying, you can have a better life style. It all starts with a decision.

It may make it easier if I were to give you a list of steps which you can take.

First, To have a better life you must want it.

With that in mind, I will suggest a few things for you to start today.

First Step

This will seem simple, a duh moment. It is to be sure to brush and flow daily.

As a result ,this will keep your teeth and gums healthy. You wouldn’t want to have decay and gum disease creep in now, would you?

Second Step

The second is also something we all forget. It is to get a good night’s sleep.

For an example, for an adult that would be a seven to nine hours sleep. Some need less, but don’t try to get by with the sleep cycle you had to keep while in college. No late night parties or jam sessions.

Third Step

For those of us still in community, to keep a healthy life style healthy, plan to have your meals family style. Doesn’t have to be with your parent. Friends will be fine. Just regularly set down and have a meal with your close ones. It will slow your consumption and give you a calmness of mind.

Fourth Step

For a healthy life style I would highly recommend as a fourth thing to do is smile and laugh out loud several times a day. We are not going to make it out of this life alive. As a result when the time comes for us to go the survivors will remember you as a cheerful person.

Fifth Step

Focus. This is important for a good life style no matter if you are spiritual or not. You should set aside 10 to 20 minutes a day to pray .Or just calm your mind.

Sixth Step

I realize this is a long article, but hang in there. This is very important. Now you must start some form of exercise.

What type? But, you say, I can get by well at work without exercise.

Come now. You can walk, can’t you? Sure you can. So get yourself a pedometer and count your steps. Walk standing up straight. Think tall and tight.

Last of All

Therefore, think about your attitude. You are looking for a healthy life style. Wrap it up with a good healthy attitude. Don’t go to it with a sour look on your face. You want to live every day of your life to the best you can.

What If I Hurt?

To clarify, a healthy life style does not come without some aches and pain. I understand that.

A Full Head Of Hair

Men. Yesterday I talked about your prostate and how you can get it in good condition. Today I would like to talk about a full head of hair. Because, we men do need hair care.

Most women, in a survey, stated that they prefered men with a full head of hair, 9 out of 10. So that seems to leave us men with thinning hair out.

But do not despair. It is not like we are at a loss. We have a chance. Therefore there is an answer for those of us who have thinning hair or tend to be balding. We can look for someone to blame. I have talked about this in an earlier post. The tendency to thinning hair comes in the genes from both sides of the family. Your mother and father had parents who were balding and have passed the gene down to you.

II speak to that camp of men with thinning hair. I could use myself as an example, but I am wise. I try not to look upon my appearance. Still, there is the ‘what if’.

So looking around I found a product for those of us men who want to do something about the thinning problem. The name of the product is Provillus.

It claims to be able to revive hair follicles. Caring for those follicles are part of our hair care.

So what do I get when you use the link to the product and you go in and buy? I get a commission from the company at no cost to you. You get the product. I get the pleasure of sending you there.

It seems most men over 40 have been known to suffer from some hereditary hair loss. As I said, it is in your genes. And if it is true that women tend to survey a preference for full headed men, if you as a male are so insecure, well, you know the rest.

The product does have powerful effective ingredients and if it can restore some hair growth, so it claims. It does reinforce the follicles that are revitalized. Another thing it has going for itself is approval by the FDA for treatment of Male Pattern Baldness.

As Joe Friday says,’ just the facts’. And yes, there are more things to be said about this product.

It adds to the thickness of your hair. And men, you want a pleasing think head of hair. As for the shine and volume and an healtier look, this prodcut can give you that.

The ingredient called Minoxidil which is a powerful hair rejuvenator is what does it

So buy today and start to restore that head of hair.
