The cause of concern is that not only adults, kids are also suffering from hair loss and the number of kids suffering with the problem is alarming and should be taken seriously.

Let alone in the United States more than two million children are suffering from this problem and the number of affected children is increasing day by day.

This problem has been looked over previously because the parents think that it is just a normal hair loss and it will stop after some time. This leads to a lot of hair fall among kids and when this get noticed, most of the hair are already shed off. Children with hair loss lack confidence and suffer a lot of problems because of that.

There are plenty of reasons for why children suffer with hair loss. There are different types of hair loss too and all of them are because of different reasons.

All these types of hair loss have to be dealt with different methods and are to be done with proper attention given to the little one. The different types of hair loss which are common among children are as follows.

Tinea Capitis

This is more of a fungal infection in the hair scalp. This type of hair fall is visible as small patches on the head of the child.

These patches are due to a contiguous fungal infection that works like a ring worm on the head which produces scaly, ring like lesions to form.

The area on the head which is affected by this infection looks like a hole or a patch on which hair don’t grow at all.

This hair loss in children is visible properly and looks very bad to be honest. Children.

Medical researches show that there are various types of Tinea capitis and they are caused by different types of infection causing fungus.

The conditions include tinea capitis, tinea favosa (favus resulting from infection by Trichophyton schoenleinii), tinea corporis (ringworm of glabrous skin), tinea imbricata (ringworm resulting from infection by Trichophyton concentricum), tinea cruris (ringworm of the groin), tinea unguium or onychomycosis (ringworm of the nail), tinea pedis (ringworm of the feet), tinea barbae (ringworm of the beard), and tinea manuum (ringworm of the hand).

These all types of fungus effect the hair loss in a different way. Children with hair loss suffering from Tinea capitis are diagnosed by just looking and observing the hair patch that has been caused and it is confirmed by using ultraviolet light to check the presence of the fungal infection of the head.

Treatment of Tinea Capitis

The treatment of Tinea capitis generally is of 4-6 weeks of duration and the treatment is based on the dosage of antifungal infections medications. These medications are to be prescribed by the doctor and are in no case should be taken by own consent.

The most common medication of treatment of Tinea capitis for children with hair loss is griseofulvin. This is a medication that has been used for a long time and has been very popular among doctors for the treatment of Tinea capitis.

This medicine has proven to be the one of the best ones for its treatment. The medicine dosage from expert physicians and doctors is prescribed to be that of 20-25mg/per day and the dosage can be either single or divided.

This amount of dosage has proven to be the best in most of the cases and has surely helped in treating Tinea capitis among children with hair loss.

There are also new modern medicines that have replaced griseofulvin and are also effective in the treatment of Tinea Capitis. Medicines like itraconazole, terbinafine, and fluconazole are being used these days for the treatment of this infection.

Prevention of Tinea Capitis

Preventive measures have to be taken in order to reduce the chances of someone catching up the same infection. Since it’s a fungal infection, the preventive measures are easy to follow and do not require very much effort.

The basic idea is to not get in direct contact with the affected child. As this is a fungal infection, children suffering from this may cause it to spread to other children around them.

So care should be taken that the affected ones have different combs and use different towels so that it does not spread. These things might seem too small to be taken into consideration but these affect in a big way and can help in reducing chances of your child catching this infection.

Alopecia Areata

Alopecia Areata is just another worse form of Tinea Capitis. In this form of hair loss, there are more than one patches on the head of the child.

Children suffering from hair loss with this disease have a forehead full of patches, where there are no hairs. This hair loss problem is different from Tinea Capitis in a lot of ways.

First of all, the hair loss in this condition occurs just in a matter of few days and patches emerge very quickly.

However, the patches that are on the head of the child are not inflamed but are smooth.

The reason for this type of hair loss in children is that the immune system of child mistakenly thinks that some hair follicles are of outside and attack those hair follicles in order to prevent damage that the immune system thinks it can do.

This is a disease that is very rare among children and only affects 1 out of 1000 children suffering from hair loss. Since the number of children suffering from it are less, this does not mean that the problem is less serious.

This problem is also treated with medications but the problem is, that there is no fungus or bacteria that is causing the problems, it is the immune system of the body that is causing problems and hence it is very tough to fight this disease.

Treatment of Alopecia Areata

As mentioned earlier, the treatment of Alopecia Areata is very difficult as the problem is caused due to malfunctioning of the immune system. Therefore, the treatment of the same is to be done very carefully so as to protect the immune system too.

Therefore, there is currently no rock solid cure for children suffering with hair loss due to Alopecia Areata.

The treatments for reducing the effect of Alopecia Areata include use of medications like corticosteroids which are powerful drugs that can suppress the immune system of the child.

These medications are send into the body by various means that include using local injections and topical ointment application or even orally. Yet it comes with its problems.

Suppressing the immune system may cause in problems such as immune system of the child becoming weak. Weak immune system can cause a lot of other diseases in the child and treating one thing can be very risky for the body.

Therefore, it is advised that the guardians of the child must consult with a lot of doctors for going this way for the treatment.

Other treatments include the use of minoxidil, Anthralin, SADBE, and DPCP. These medications may not prevent the hair loss of children and may not prevent the formation of new bald patches, but what they can do is increase the growth of hair and this may help in grow hair on bald patches to cover them up.

Prevention of Alopecia Areata

There is no certain prevention method of preventing your child from this disease as it is caused by the malfunctioning of the immune system.

But if your child is suffering from this problem there are somethings that you can do to prevent the problem from getting worse.

Children suffering from this must be protected from getting in contact with direct sunlight and long exposures to sunlight must be banned, and if it is necessary to go out in the sun, then the child must wear a sunscreen.

Moreover, wearing glasses in the sun is a bonus. Also the prevention can be done by wearing something on the head, like wigs or scarves.

These things will protect the child from the sun and will help and will protected the affected area of the head.

Telogen effluvium

Another form of hair loss among children is Telogen effluvium. This is a kind of a hair loss in which the normal hair cycle is interrupted. Generally, about 10 to 15 percent of your child’s hair are in Telogen phase.

Telogen phase is a resting phase of the hair of your child and lasts about 100 days on the scalp and more for the hairs of other parts of the body like eyebrows, eyelash, arms legs etc.

Telogen effluvium is a stage in which most or all the hair on your child’s head are thrown in Telogen state.

This is the reason of baldness in some children. This transfer of all or most of the hair into telogen phase causes partial or complete baldness in children. And that happens over a period of month or weeks.

This disease is caused due to a number of problems and that include severe emotional stress, extreme fever, the stress of general anesthesia, vitamin A overdose, injury, side effects of a medication.

Things like severe stress in child’s mind at a very early age cause various complications and hence it may also lead to Telogen effluvium. Hence it is mandatory for parents to keep a check on the child and make sure that child is not suffering from any mental stress.

Treatment of Telogen effluvium

Treatment of Telogen effluvium does not need any kind of medication mostly as most of the things can be fixed by small things.

Play

In most cases Telogen effluvium is self-correcting. It tends to go away within 6 to 12 months. But to increase the chances and reduce the time of the self-correcting period some things can be done.

Proper nutritious diet can be one of them. Children suffering from hair loss due to Telogen effluvium must be given proper nutritious diet and must be fed properly.

Their diet must include all the necessary vitamins and minerals that are important for the growth and nutrition of any child. Moreover, proper care of the hair must be taken in this phase.

Hair must be given full attention and must not be dealt with harshly as they are already thin and already suffering with a weaker scalp.

Moreover, you can give your child multivitamins so that the deficiency of some of them is fulfilled and your child is healthy. Healthy children will most likely recover faster from this problem than others.

Prevention of Telogen effluvium

There is no as such method of preventing hair loss in children suffering from Telogen effluvium but there are preventions that help in faster recovery.

As all the hairs of the child are in Telogen phase, it is necessary that the hair of the child are cared much more than they had been cared before. It is necessary that no force is applied in pulling the hair because the hairs are too weak to handle that.

Pulling the hair can cause permanent damage, so it is necessary that you take care of your child properly so that your child does not suffer from it.

You must comb the hair of your child very gently. A very gentle approach towards this problem is very effective and will give the best results. It is necessary because the hairs are temporarily in this stage and will eventually come out of this.

Children with hair loss problems due to this condition need special care and proper attention from the parents in order to recover fully and rapidly and hence as a parent it’s your duty to do that.

Hair shaft Trauma

Hair shaft Trauma is the only form of hair loss that is not caused with some fungi or an infection. Children with hair loss due to Hair Shaft Trauma do not suffer from any disease but this occurs due to the constant pulling force that is applied to the hair.

Constant hair pulling results in hair loss among children and is very common among them. The reasons for this can be many. As a parent, you might be putting a very tight pony tail on your child’s head.

This constant pulling force may not cause hair loss suddenly but is the reason behind hair loss in children in most cases. Since the hair are pulled, they tend to get more and more weaker from the roots and chances of hair being removed completely from the hair follicle is more.

This pulling force on the hair can also be because of your child pulling hair by himself/herself. Your child might be pulling hair due to any other reason.

The reason can be frustration, emotional stress or any kind of pain he/she is suffering from. It is your responsibility as a parent to make sure that you do not let your child suffer from any kind of emotional stress and be with him/her in hard times

Treatment of Hair Shaft Trauma

Treatment of Hair Shaft Trauma is to change your habits immediately once the cause is found out. If the cause is because of those tight pony tails.

Stop doing them and make the pony tails on your child’s head weaker and softer so that your child does not suffer from hair loss.

Constant Suffering from Hair Shaft Trauma may lead to permanent damage to the hair of the child and may cause hair to not grow at all.

Once the habit of making tight pony tails is removed, hair will automatically start growing and you will see results in some months.

Moreover, you must feed your child with a balanced and nutritious diet so that the hair of your child grow faster and are denser than they were previously. Hence it is your duty to keep a check on these.

Prevention of Hair Shaft Trauma

Prevention of Hair Shaft Trauma in children with hair loss is simple and straight forward.

Eliminate the cause of the hair loss. Do not put very tight knots or pony tails on your child’s head as this will cause to hair to become weaker from the root and will cause hair loss.

Also please take care of your child, do not let him/her suffer from any emotional or mental stress that he/she may have been suffering from.

This emotional stress leads to child pulling hair causing Hair Shaft Trauma.

Make sure your child is not in any problem that is affecting him/her emotionally and if he/she is, help him get out of that problem and prove your role as a parent. Establish a proper emotional relationship with your small one and make him/her believe that no matter what happens to him, you will be with him/her always.

Remember, precaution is always better than cure and if you as a parent or a guardian are able to prevent bad things from happening to your child, your child will surely not suffer from these problems and will live a happy and healthy life.

Does a Mature Hairline Mean You Are Going, Bald?

by Shalini Kapoor Leave a Comment

Is Mature hairline Different Than Receding Hairline?

Change is the one constant of the human body. This ironclad rule applies to the hairline which looses its round features and pulls back a little.

This process usually begins in a person’s late teens to early twenties and affects 95% of men. Only 5% of men keep their juvenile hairline throughout their lives, which means they can brag about their hair all life long. The process of hair loss at the front of the head is what is called a mature hairline, and once it has stabilized, it generally stays that way until you are in your 40s or 50s.

So the next time you are standing in front of a mirror and notice that your hairline is moving up, don’t panic or confuse it for Prince William’s balding. It just means that your body is undergoing a normal biological process that stabilizes with time.

The best way to differentiate between mild balding and the development of a mature hairline is in the shape of its tip. Mild balding always develops into a v-shaped structure with the edges dug in, but a maturing hairline recedes in an even way.

Hair loss is generally an inherited condition, meaning if your father went bald or started losing hair in his early age, then there is a high chance that you may go through the same process as well and show a mature hairline in your early age as well.

Most hair experts do not consider a mature hairline to be a form of balding, but they note that it occurs across all races and the process can take up to ten years to complete. For a few unlucky men, the maturing of the hairline can take on an uneven shape, but a trip to a specialist can quickly resolve this.

What causes mature hairline?

Experts still can’t agree on what exactly causes this common phenomenon. The general consensus, however, is that it may have something to do with a hormone called DHT. This hormone causes the shrinking of follicles, which are tiny cavities that contain the roots of the hair. By compressing these follicles, DHT restricts the growth of hair, leading to a general receding hairline.

Other geneticists believe that it is a random genetic trait that developed a long time ago and has no major underlying cause. Some studies have linked a receding hairline to lifestyle choices like smoking, and this is because cigarettes contain toxins that interfere with hormones in the body.

Some people develop a mature hairline called the horseshoe pattern. This hairline protrudes at the front but digs deep into the temple region, and this is mainly due to DHT, which it tends to affect hair follicles located in different parts of the head with a varying degree of severity. Hair situated to the side of the head is far more sensitive to this hormone which explains the horseshoe shape of this mature hairline.

What a normal hairline should look like.

A teenager’s hairline or that of a person with a lifelong juvenile hairline is pretty easy to spot. The hair on the forehead and front part of the scalp is rich and vibrant. The leading edge of someone with a juvenile hairline may also defer from the moment their hairline starts to recede into a mature hairline.

The Norwood scale is often used by a dermatologist to determine the extent of damage caused by a mature hairline, so it is probably a good idea to see an expert if you feel it is necessary.

Signs Of a Mature Hairline.

Some men have a natural v line shape for their hair and so it easy to mistake this for a receding hairline. The critical difference between a normal v-shaped hairline and a mature hairline is the point at which hair starts to recede and pulled back.

A mature hairline never recedes beyond 1.5 inches because beyond this point then dermatologists classify this as balding as opposed to maturing. If you notice that your hairline has receded beyond this point, then there is a good chance that it will continue to move back considerably over the next decade or two.

How to prevent the emergence of a mature hairline.

If you pride yourself on your hair, then you probably wish to retain a juvenile hairline which is often more attractive. Since testosterone can be converted into DHT, resulting in hair loss, some dermatologists have tried to interrupt this process before it can do its damage. Prescription drugs such as Propecia now exist that can stop the process of hair loss while some can even restore lost hair to a significant degree but not entirely. Other drugs directly target hair follicles to stop their inflammation and closing up so that they can begin to sprout new hair roots.

A slightly more extreme but very useful treatment option involves hair transplants. This process was first done in 1939 and has since been perfected to use micrografts. Hair transplants move hair from an area that has plenty of it to a balding area. The new hair will grow normally and will not last forever but will gradually fade as healthy hair would after a decade or two.

The area that the hair was transplanted from will grow back in about three months to create a productive and healthy appearance. It is, however, important to note that hair transplants don’t work for everybody and you need to speak to a dermatologist to know if this option works for you. Unfortunately, since hair transplants are considered a cosmetic procedure, most insurance companies will not pay for it, which means you will have to raise the money yourself. The cost of a transplant is a minimum of $4,000 per session and can be as high as $16,000. The number of sessions largely depends on the size of the area that you wish to work on, this is the single most effective strategy of countering a mature hairline, but it does not come cheap.

The last viable strategy involves FUT, which stands for follicular unit transplantation. This strategy consists of a surgeon cutting small pieces of scalp from the back of the head where it is barely noticeable and then replacing the area where your hairline is receding with this new skin.

This strategy is effective because once the skin has been grafted onto its new location, the hair will continue to grow like it usually would have in its original state. This means that your hairline could stay young until the day you die. The recovery time for this procedure is about one week during which it is advisable to stay indoors. Once it healed up, nobody will be able to notice that the skin was grafted.

How to analyze Your mature hairline .

A juvenile hairline sits right next to the first wrinkle on your forehead. A mature hairline, however, is about one inch from your first wrinkle. There is about five significant variations of how a maturing hairline will develop:

M Shaped
M shaped type 3; This look like a wave-shaped v.
Island Type
Island type 3; President Nixon had this, and it presents as a small patch of hair surrounded by a bald sea.
Large V Shape
Large v shape; This one is rare and presents as a v, but the recession is found at the extreme corners.
Vertex
Vertex; In its third type it displays as hair recession at the crown of the head.
U Shaped
U shaped; Mitt Romney has this one which is hard to see because the hair only pulls back slightly.

At Last In Conclusion:

Regardless of what type of mature hairline you have, what is important to remember is that this is a natural process, so there is no need to dread that you are going bald at 25. In a strange way, a maturing hairline creates a diversity of appearance instead of a global uniform hairline that would have been boring.

If you should choose to do something about your receding hairline make sure you consult your doctor before taking any medicine that may have adverse effects. Only take a medication that is approved by the FDA or credible private organizations. As for surgery, only visit doctors who are appropriately licensed even if it means it will cost you more money.

Prevent all sorts of dirt and also bacteria throughout the job or performing day-to-day duties for two weeks after the hair transplant treatment.

Hair Density Benefits and Losses How Much Hair Density Should You Have?

by Shalini Kapoor Leave a Comment

Men Growing Hair Out Stages

Having hair on the head caters for various reasons. Top on the list are beauty and insulation. Most of the time, we tend to concentrate fully on the former.

Since this is the 21st century, more lucrative ideas about hair are sprouting. Factors such as hair density play a significant role in our general appearance. Being knowledgeable about hair and its needs goes a long way in securing its density.

Discover Your Hair

It’s not enough to only know the color and texture of your hair. In fact, there’s something deeper that must be unearthed. It’s all part of the self-discovery process and must be taken very seriously.

The very first thing to pay attention to is how voluminous your crown of glory is.

A simple way of going about it is by parting a section of your front hair and brushing it towards your forehead. If you can see traces of your scalp as you do this, it’s safe to say that your hair is not as dense.

If you strain to see your scalp, your hair density level is on point.

If you are straining to catch a glimpse of your scalp and can only see a tiny section of it, yours is of medium density. Lastly, your hair’s density is very thick if you can hardly see your scalp at the front part of your scalp.

Maintaining Your Hair’s Density

Now that you already know where your density lies, you’ll want to either maintain or improve it. Your hair’s appearance depends on factors such as genetics as well as physical health.

Let’s not forget that even the products you use on your hair are vast determinants of your hair’s safety or downfall.

If you are privileged enough to have high density, you wouldn’t want to lose it for any reason in the world. Monitor your hair routines very closely, careful not to miss a single step. For instance, if you shampoo twice or thrice a week, keep this up.

Also, avoid jumping from one hairdresser to another. Stick to one that understands your hair as well as its needs. The hair products that you use must be well-researched as well as verified.

When to Try Out Something New

Every self-loving human being only wants the very best for their image. Hair is a significant contributor to such and must be carefully studied. After doing the same thing for years, it’s definitely time for a breath of fresh air around your scalp.

You’ll know you need a fresh start when you are about to venture into a new line of work. Our jobs always require us to look the part. Besides, your hair speaks even louder than you sometimes do.

If you are no longer comfortable with how your present style makes you feel, it’s time for a change. However, be sure to do your research first before making any drastic moves. Sometimes the grass is not always greener on the other side.

Watch Your Diet

As mentioned earlier, the general appearance of your hair solely depends on the food you eat. For this and other plausible reasons, ensure that your snacks and diet are balanced at all times. Hair is mostly made up of protein substances.

The likes of eggs contain nutrients such as Zinc, which is a huge promoter of hair growth. In case eggs are not your cup of tea; for some reason, there are other options you can choose from. Nuts, berries, fish, and spinach are available, to mention but a few.

Most importantly, maintaining a perfect balance among all these will yield its fruit at the right time.

Rather than stress yourself over things you have no control over, live your life. Try as much as possible to quit worrying ceaselessly. Give yourself a break and see just how far your hair will go. Aside from genetics and diet, lifestyle is another contributor to hair density.

Leave that toxic relationship if you have to. Your hairline matters more than that heartbreaker who could care less about your feelings. No job, and no idea how to pay your bills? It will work itself out eventually if you live one day at a time.

A visit to your hairdresser after a month will only confirm this slogan.

Stay Hydrated

Need I say more? Hair that’s moisturized from the inside will withstand all sorts of damages. The villains called breakage and dandruff will wilt at the sight of moisture. Drink lots of water that will cater to your skin as well as your hair.

If possible, download an app that will help you stay up to date with your new-found routine. On the other hand, keep your end of the bargain and keep clean water close to you. The results are never instantaneous, but at least you have something fabulous to look forward to.

What’s more, you can look forward to other great benefits, including significant hair density. You have to be consistent in your endeavor to keep your hair healthy and strong.

Other factors

Don’t beat yourself up if the density of your hair is not up to par. It’s not your fault. Some factors will determine your hair’s level of thickness. For instance, age, hormones, and even genetics can contribute immensely.

Most of the time, it’s almost impossible to have things work in your favor if you are battling these factors. Professionals have been researching hair density and have almost nothing to add to what we already know.

Nowadays, most people are taking the artificial way out. Age is catching up, and they have no choice. Wigs and weaves are playing their role significantly by restoring grace and dignity to our scalps.

Love Yourself

After all is said and done, hair density should never dictate how much love and respect you should accord yourself.

If there is something you can do about your scarcely dense hair, go ahead. If it’s beyond you, accept yourself and love your hair as it is.

You’ll be surprised at how much progress and change you can make just by this simple act of love.
