Receding Hairline in Natural Hair


Receding hairline does not only affect men, but also women. This condition can be genetic so I was not surprised when I have been noticing that my hair has been receding similar to how my father's hairline is. I needed to know what I can do to help rectify this problem.

Here is the beginning of my receding hairline journey.

For the year, 2014, one of my main hair goals is to grow more hair along the problematic areas.  Here is my action plan:

  1. Proactively apply hair growth oils such as Castor Oil, Lavender Oil and/or Nubian Heritage Grow and Strengthen Treatment Masque 
  2. Massage the area diligently.
  3. Moisture this area after washing my face; morning and night.
  4. Do not use brushes along my edges, use my fingers instead
  5. Avoid the use of bonnets that are tight along my edges

If all fails, then style to hide problem.. =(... LOL!

    I totally agree about the bonnets, I left using them years ago before going natural because I found they chewed up my edges back then. Good luck on your edge journey.

Does having lots of hair on your arm means long hair on your head?

Image
  No, having a lot of hair on your arms doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll have long hair on your head. Hair growth patterns, thickness, and length on different parts of the body are influenced by factors such as genetics, hormones, and individual biology. For example: • Hair on arms is usually vellus or terminal hair, which grows to a certain length and then stops. • Scalp hair grows continuously in a cycle (anagen, catagen, telogen phases), allowing it to become much longer than body hair. While genetics may influence both arm and scalp hair characteristics, they don’t directly determine the length of one based on the other.

 Did you know that if you are deficient in Vitamin D, this can cause hair loss?  Before you run to the pharmacy to buy some vitamin D, it is important to know why you shouldn’t take it if you do not have a Vitamin D Deficiency. Should You Take Vitamin D if you do not have a deficiency? Taking vitamin D without a deficiency is generally unnecessary for most people, but it depends on your health, lifestyle, and location. Here’s a breakdown: When Supplementing Might Be Helpful 1. Limited Sun Exposure: If you live in areas with little sunlight (especially in winter) or spend most of your time indoors, you might not get enough vitamin D from sunlight, even if you’re not deficient. 2. Certain Health Conditions: People with osteoporosis, certain autoimmune conditions, or chronic illnesses may benefit from maintaining optimal (not just baseline) vitamin D levels. 3. Dietary Deficiency: If your diet lacks vitamin D-rich foods (e.g., fatty fish, fortified milk, or eggs), sup...
