Why do Men Experience Hair Loss?

Hair loss is upsetting, whether it starts with a receding hairline, or going completely bald. It also lowers a person’s self-esteem. Men react to hair loss in different ways. Some accept it as a natural part of getting older, while others look for ways to stop or slow the condition.

Men can keep control of their looks by using effective treatments. However, Lordhair’s high-quality hairpieces provides men with an instant and natural way to get a full hair while also boosting their self-esteem, without having to wait a long time.

 

Why Do Men Lose Hair?

Men can lose their hair for a number of reasons, including genetics, changes in hormones, medical conditions, and lifestyle choices. Here are more reasons.

 

Genes and Male Pattern Baldness (Alopecia androgenetica)

Androgenetic alopecia, which is also known as male pattern baldness, is the main reason men lose their hair. Because they are sensitive to dihydrotestosterone (DHT), which is made from testosterone, more than half of men get this genetic condition by age 50.

DHT binds to the follicles, which makes them gradually get smaller over time. As strands get smaller, the strands get thinner and weaker until they stop growing all together. Male pattern baldness continues through a consistent pattern that starts with a receding hairline followed by thinning at the crown which leads to partial or full baldness. Because androgenetic alopecia is caused by genes, it can’t be completely stopped. Minoxidil (Rogaine) and finasteride (Propecia) are two treatments that might help slow the condition. Patients need to use these treatments consistently while controlling possible adverse effects.

 

Hormones

Aside from DHT, men can lose their hair because of hormonal issues. People who have thyroid problems, like hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism, may have problems with their growth cycles, which can cause more thinning. If testosterone levels drop, the strands get thinner and weaker. Stress hormones like cortisol can also stop the cells from working normally.

 

Poor Diet

Foods that are high in protein, vitamins, and minerals help hair grow thick and strong. When the body doesn’t have enough iron, biotin, vitamin D, or zinc, the strands fall out and get thinner. Telogen effluvium develops from iron deficiency because this condition pushes hair into the resting stage too soon which increases shedding.

Eating a diet full of fruits, vegetables, healthy fats, and vitamins and minerals helps your hair stay healthy.

 

Stress

One of the many body processes that is greatly affected by long-term stress is hair growth. Telogen effluvium is a condition that makes hair fall out more often when the follicles enter their resting phase too soon. This is caused by stress.

Androgenetic alopecia can start or get worse when there is a lot of stress, which makes the body make more DHT.

Regularly using stress-relieving activities like exercise, meditation, deep breathing, and living a healthy life can help reduce thinning or balding caused by stress.

 

Excessive styling

Strands lose strength when they are constantly treated with strong products, heated too much, or styled in tight ways. This makes the locks break and thin. Traction alopecia happens when the strands are constantly pulled due to tight hairstyles. To keep your locks from getting damaged, use gentle shampoos that don’t contain sulfates, avoid tight hairstyles, and stay away from excessive heat styling.

 

Health problems

Autoimmune diseases and long-term illnesses that affect the scalp can cause hair loss. Alopecia areata is an autoimmune disease in which the immune system attacks the follicles instead of healthy cells, leaving bald spots all over the body.

Some medicines used to treat high blood pressure, depression, cancer, and heart problems can cause hair loss as a side effect.

 

Ageing

Because the follicles aren’t working as hard, men naturally lose hair as they age. Hair loss in men is normal as they age, and it can make them feel bad about themselves, so many of them look for ways to restore their looks.

 

What is the Best Solution for Hair Loss?

In some cases, there may not be a permanent solution, especially when it’s caused by genes or age. A lot of different treatments are available that can slow the condition.

Minoxidil and finasteride are medications that can help hair grow back, but they need to be used regularly and may not work for all people. Transplant surgery is an alternative way, but it is expensive, involves invasive processes, and the results are still uncertain.

Lordhair’s premium hairpieces are a non-invasive way for men to restore their appearance. The hairpiece’s design ensures comfortability, making it a great choice for daily use. Men who are losing their hair or are completely bald can get hairpieces from Lordhair that are made to fit their specific needs in terms of texture, density, and color.

The SuperSkin-V men’s hairpiece uses knotless V-looped hair all over to enhance your look and enable you to style your hair as you wish. Its skin base means it also scores highly on practicality. It is perfect for beginners who are using it for the first time.

Final Thoughts

A lot of men lose their hair, and the reasons can be genetic, lifestyle choices, or medical problems. Different methods can slow hair loss and cause some hair to grow back, but not all of them provide certain results in all situations.

Lordhair’s quality hairpieces are the best choice for men who want results right away and a natural look that lasts.
