Hair loss is a problem for most men and women today. Many environmental factors are influential in causing this complication. If you want to treat this complication in a timely manner, it is better to check your physical health first. Also, using natural oils such as coconut oil and sesame oil will help you a lot in this regard.
Having thick and happy hair is one of the main concerns of many people and for this purpose they do everything to make their hair look fuller.
Perhaps this is one of the reasons why various beliefs about hair thickening have been formed and the number of such products in the market is increasing day by day. Dr. Amir Hoshang Ehsani, a dermatologist and hair specialist and faculty member of Tehran University of Medical Sciences, introduces you to the beliefs that exist about thickening hair.
Does sesame oil have an effect?
One of the reasons for thinning hair and hair loss is related to the lack of protein in the body. People who are malnourished or do not get enough protein have shorter hair than other people who get enough protein. Hair growth cell activity is dependent on protein uptake. Many people believe that the use of sesame oil can cause thickening of the hair, which is quite true, and the reason is due to the protein in sesame oil, which can have a positive effect on the quality of hair.
Do not be fooled by advertisements
There are so many shampoos on the market today that make the choice a little harder. Many people, under the influence of advertising, turn to shampoos that use herbal ingredients such as thyme, garlic, henna and nettle. Many manufacturers of this type of shampoo claim that the use of such shampoos can lead to thickening of the hair and increase its growth, while this is only a commercial aspect and the effect of these shampoos on the hair has not been scientifically proven.
There is always a gene involved!
Genetics and heredity are one of the most important factors that affect hair growth and volume, and if someone wants to know if their hair is short or thick, they should see a dermatologist. In general, there are about one hundred thousand follicles on each person’s head (if there is no hair loss or the person does not have a specific disease), if the number of hairs per square centimeter of the scalp is more than 120, then the condition of the hair is very good. it counts. If this number is above 70, it means that the average condition is good, and if the density of hair in one square centimeter is between 40 and 70, it is considered low, and the number below 40 also shows very low density. To check the condition of the hair, you can see a dermatologist from the age of 6-7 onwards. In general, about 30% of referrals are dedicated to the issue of thinning hair, of which about 60% are women and 40% are men.
Shave to thicken!
Another common misconception about hair thickening is shaving. Many people believe that constant shaving and shortening of the hair can be effective in filling it, but this belief is incorrect. With shaving, the percentage of hair in the growth phase increases compared to resting hair, which results in a false increase, and the number of hairs never changes much.
A misconception
Some people may think that consuming too much of a food can speed up the growth of their hair, and their hair will look fuller by doing so. This is a misconception because hair growth has a certain standard and will not exceed a certain amount (one centimeter per month) and the use of healthy foods will only help to improve the condition of the hair over time.
The warmer, the better
Laser combs have been advertised for many years, and their manufacturers claim that they increase hair volume and growth. This claim is somewhat true because heat increases blood flow to the hair follicles, but it should be borne in mind that Increasing the volume and growth of hair can not be considered just one factor and many factors play a role in this. For example, studies have shown that only one part of the head of some people was warmed, and this was done several times, but the growth and volume of hair did not change much. So in general, heat, combing too much hair or massaging the scalp alone can not have an effect.
Does snake oil do magic?
There are various oils on the market, such as coconut oil, olive oil, almond oil, snake oil, etc., which are often sold as hair thickeners, and it is widely believed that the use of these oils can cause thickening of the hair. Beliefs about these oils are incorrect because none of these oils reach the hair follicles and there is no active ingredient in these oils that can greatly affect hair growth. The use of these oils can only condition the hair and have a softening effect.
How does it get full?
There is not much that can be done for people who have genetically thinning hair since childhood, but those who already have a large volume of hair and have thinning hair should be considered. Many factors can play a role in this, such as anemia, hypothyroidism, stress, medication, pregnancy, etc. پس The person should be carefully examined to determine the cause of hair loss. Consumption of fruits, enough protein, dairy products, vegetables and… can help to improve hair volume and increase their growth to some extent. People who follow strict and unprincipled diets, in addition to experiencing problems such as sagging skin and wrinkles, their hair will also fall out. Another thing that can reduce the volume of hair is smoking, so smoking should be stopped so as not to endanger the beauty and health of hair.
