Why do people become bald

With the increasing pressure of life and work, many people have experienced a lot of hair loss. When the hair loss is severe, people will become bald. Many young people have also become bald. There are many reasons for baldness, and once baldness occurs, it is difficult to cure it. Therefore, in order to avoid baldness, everyone must take precautions.

Reason 1

Hair follicles can produce hair continuously, so why does hair loss occur? The answer is genetics. Yes, hair loss is mainly genetic. Ninety-five percent of bald men inherit it from their fathers, while women rarely experience hair loss. Most men begin to go bald in middle age. About 80% of men will experience hair loss when they are 70 years old. The vast majority of people with hair loss are carriers of the hair loss gene. Men with the hair loss gene are very sensitive to male hormones. The combined effect of male hormones and the hair loss gene will cause the hair follicles to shrink and become smaller, and the hair will become less and less, and finally the hair follicles will disappear. Without hair follicles, the hair growth cycle cannot be maintained. As a result, there is no hair in that hair follicle area, and the head gradually becomes bald.

Reason 2

The baldness process generally proceeds step by step. First, the hairline near the temple will begin to move backwards, then the hair on the top of the head will begin to become thinner and become a "Mediterranean", and then it will become out of control, and finally only sparse hair around the temples and on the back of the head will be left. If people with the hair loss gene are under too much stress, their hair follicles will shrink prematurely and they will start to lose hair at a very young age. This is also the reason why many male doctors have a high hairline. Hair loss is difficult to cure, and there is currently no good treatment method except hair transplantation.

Ways to prevent baldness

1. Do not use nylon combs, because nylon combs will generate static electricity, causing adverse stimulation to the scalp and hair follicles.

2. Try to avoid perming your hair and using hair dryers as much as possible. Perming liquid can damage the hair, and the instantaneous high temperature generated by the hair dryer can directly damage the scalp.

3. Mental stress, smoking and drinking are the main reasons for premature hair loss among young people today. Quitting smoking, drinking, eating more vegetables and fruits, relaxing and exercising more can effectively prevent premature hair loss.

4. Do not wash your hair excessively. It is best to wash your hair about once every 2-3 times.
