My Hair Loss Story: FAILED Treatments, Natural Regrowth, & Founding Perfect Hair Health

@@PerfectHairHealth Hi Robert, I'm a new discoverer of your material (website and now YT channel). Been dealing with hairloss for a handful of years, experimenting with minox as well as natural remedies (topicals, supplements, microneedling, massages etc.). Diet has also been a focus of mine as I believe nutrition has to be at the crux of most ailments, and thus I've tried paleo, vegan, Peat etc. Anyways, I've decided not to go the finasteride way. I'm aware side effects might be rare but I just think messing with enzymes and hormones is backward logic. I'd like to see you do a diet video comparing different diets' effect on hair loss. Thanks for all the good material, have a good one.

@@sumsar0125 Thank you! Expect a video about this soon. We're actually interviewing Dr. Shawn Baker tomorrow for the membership community, and have a few public content pieces coming out about the carnivore diet, microbiome, helminths, fecal microbiota transplants, etc. and their connections to hair loss. It's a fascinating subject and one that certainly deserves attention.

[@OhCanada-wk3kl]

Thanks so much for sharing your hair loss journey. Only men and women who have experienced this know how traumatizing hair loss can be to one's overall self-esteem as our hair is so connected with our outward appearance and subsequent confidence. Many say it is vain to worry about hair loss (often while poking tasteless bald jokes at you); however, healthy self-esteem is so important to success in every part of life. It is a very expensive and frustrating journey trying to find treatments, devices, and products that will at least slow down and hopefully stop hair loss. Although I have learned to tolerate the bald jokes over the years, I can honestly say my hair loss has greatly impacted my overall self-confidence over the years.

[@___m_i_k_e___]

what are you doing for that? Are your hair getting better?

[@doublevision2943]

It's very simple why things such as scalp massages are never recommended. You don't make money off of people massaging their own scalps. Other people's misery is one of the best money makers in the world, the majority of people won't care how much they make you suffer with their dishonesty, the more miserable their customer is the more money they make, the hair loss industry is one of the best examples for this

[@sirsiver]

ìt's very simple why things like scalp massages are never recommended. It's because they doesn't work so stop believing random shenanigans you read on the internet and get a scientific culture

[@Daniel-hp3tk]

You can make a TON of money convincing people that the root cause of androgenic alopecia is bloodflow by designing stupid gadgets that they argue somehow improve the bloodflow to hair follicles. While generic minoxidil and finasteride are not that expensive in the grand scheme of things

[@nikhtzatzi]

Physical exercise could be connected to hair loss if that was all there is. The guy here has articles explaining that the scalp "massage" etc will not work on most people if they dont take DHT blocker. But he doesnt want to ruin the overly happy mood in this vid by going in depth.

The difference here is really that The pic from 2011 was taken at an angle where you could see directly through his hair (meaning that they were point toward the camera thus exposing the skin underneath). every picture thereafter was taken at a different angle in reduced lighting thus not exposing the silver dollar sized spot. That really just looks like a natural hair cowlick in an odd spot if anything.

[@tteqhu]

Yeah, sun's brightness cannot be compared to bathroom in house. Pictures are taken from farther out, and front camera's quality is bad. Still I'd take a guess it's both small regrowth, and better stylization. (even if you debate over regrowth, it didn't get worse for sure) And some testimonals of massages do seem to have results. Anyway, you can massage your scalp some.

Minimum total SSM efforts of 50 hours. Twice-daily, 20-min, hand-generated scalp massages spaced 12 h apart. SSM sessions were segmented into one of three rotational scalp regions (frontal/temporal, vertex, sides/back) and divided between hand presses, stretches, and pinches. SSM sessions were as follows: 3 min of warm-up (cyclical presses at 5-10 lb of downward force per hand across the entire scalp), followed by 17 min of region-specific tissue manipulation: 6 min of scalp skin pinches: single-handed or double-handed pinches with grip spaced 1-2 inches apart, applying 5-10 lb of downward force per hand, and holding 1-2 s before moving onto adjacent scalp skin 1-2 inches from previous pinch; 6 min of scalp skin presses: knuckle- or palm-based skin presses applying 10-20 lb of downward force, firmly planting against and manipulating scalp skin for 1-2 seconds before moving onto adjacent scalp skin 1-2 inches from the previous press; 5 min of scalp skin stretches: single-handed or double-handed skin stretches with grip spaced 1-2 inches apart, applying firm but comfortable pressure and holding for 1-2 s before moving onto adjacent scalp skin 1-2 inches from previous stretch.

THE CROWN THATS IT!! most of us worry about hairline

[@bilvis48]

Depends on how you wear your hair. He wears it combed to the side with long bangs...so we have no idea what his hairline looks like. I have very full hair on the sides and the back of my head..but I wear my hair combed back which gives the apperance.of a.full head of hair everywhere. But when u get close to me, my hairline has many gaps and you can see into my hair until your eyes hit the thicker hair in the back. So.for me the hairline is paramount. And I have found trying to massage the hairline specifically is very difficult. I heard a doctor say once..."if u really want to.see how much hair you have...comb your hair forward from back to to front and you will see just how thin it is. And because the way my hair grows, I cant really wear it so I can even hide the thinning. I'm 60yrs old and have had a full, thick head of hair my whole life. Then my grandkids were born and for whatever reason I started losing my hair. But anyway...if you are having problems with your hair...I wish you best of Luck!

Fantastic results and thank you . I threw my minoxidil away about 8 months ago.I too was going bald on my crown and tried minoxidil and continued to lose hair. I also tried many things like Biotin, rosemary oil and onion oil that actually increased my hair loss. So i started head massages once a day for 5 minutes...thats it. Ive managed to decrease my hairfall dramatically and also seem to have thicker hair. My bald patch is slowly recovering too...I dont derma roll but scratch my head very lightly once a week and this also increases bloodflow to my scalp...my scalp is slightly red after it. All this seems to be working and it hasnt cost me a penny. Steady away and time will tell. Also bending forward and allowing blodflow to the head seems to help. Lke i said im only doing this for 5 minutes a day and its working. Goodluck

[@plumpychunky]

An underrated hair loss prevention factor is daily step count. I never see people talking about this one. I didn't even have hair loss until the pandemic hit and I started working from home. My daily step count average went from 12k steps/day to 3k steps/day. That's when my hairline started receding. I now force myself to get atleast 8k steps/day (goal is to get blood to the scalp through movement), which is hard because I work from home.. but it is totally possible. 2-3 walks per day and a gym sesh typically does the trick. Or pick up a sport of some sort.

[@iclickster5644]

My and my brothers hair growth success story - we did follow a regimen, which took my brother 15 years to build which worked amazingly: 1. Fragrance Free Shampoo: Korean cosmetic industry already know why fragrance free - so research why if you're curious. Even baby shampoo is fragrance free. 2. Taoist Soap for Hair Growth 2x a week- stimulates hair growth, stops inflammation which is the root cause for all hair loss, including genetic and hormone based. 3. Stinging Nettle Tea everyday (make sure you aren't allergic) for removing hormone residue in the liver: this helps support a healthier balance for hormones, but obviously not a 100% cure. 4. Scalp Massage 20-30 minutes everyday - this is very under-rated - but works, you must do everyday. 5. Collagen Powder bovine based 2x tablespoon everyday - nutrition aspect of hair is covered, and will increase the speed of hair growth as well. 6. Cold water rinse (only top of head) after a shower: Do this especially if you get itchy scalp, or sensitive feeling scalp - just do the scalp, dont do it on the back of your head or neck will make you sick if you are weak. but i agree with above video - the entire industry relies on you not knowing. hair growth is complicated - you need to do various things to actually cover at least 5 areas of hair growth - nutrition, detox, hormone, inflammation and circulation.

For what it's worth, I highly recommend Rob and his methods (I have no commercial relationship with Rob or his website). I started using his massage techniques when I was nearly 62 years old and have continued using them twice daily for more than 4 years. The results have been excellent: noticeable thickening of the hair throughout the top of my scalp and a gradual and continuing advance of my frontal hair line. The massages do take time, roughly 30 min/day total, but I find them relaxing, and it didn't take long for them to become a natural part of my daily routine, like brushing my teeth. The massages are the only treatment I have used; I have never used any medical treatments.

It hasn't gotten worse, but it hasn't gotten better - and I'm wondering (hoping!) if this massage is the answer. So would you say, 15 minutes in the morning and 15 in the evening is enough? Any tips on massage method or technique?

[@randyevermore9323]

@@ChrisZ70 I would just follow the protocol that Rob demonstrates in his latest video. That takes about 15 min twice daily. He recommends spacing the two sessions about 11 hours apart to give the inflammation time to subside. I would also recommend using wooden tools like those that Rob gives away to new members. I made my own out of a wooden plank I had lying around the house, and they do give you much stronger purchase on your scalp, which allows much better pinching and stretching, especially. I think that may be why I continue to see improvement even after 5 years of this.

[@bignickenergy2042]

This makes a lot of sense, so i’ve noticed if i wear my hair one way all day and then try to move it another direction or to the other side, my scalp/roots of my hair hurt really freaking bad. I had no i ldea why my HAIR hurt so much to move but it must be because my scalp is so tight! Holy shit i think i may have just figured my situation out with my hair loss. Spent 4 years of constant panic attacks/stress and i think that wound my scalp up with so much tension that i eventually started losing hairs. I literally have no one in my family with hair loss so it makes total sense. My dad still has a full head of hair at 63 although thin but still really good for his age. My grandpa on my moms side also still had a full head of hair at 88 when he passed last year. So this literally must be it cause theres no other genetic evidence from my family that would predispose me to balding. Im 29 now and first noticed hair thinning at 6 months into 27. Its slowly gotten worse but after just messaging my scalp this whole video it already feels great and i have this “relief” In my scalp now. Goodluck everyone!

[@slambangwallop]

Thanks for sharing with these videos and your experiences! My ex-boyfriend used to make a point of massaging my hair anytime he stressed me out after drinking! I used to tell him that he'd need that more than me to calm his head and prevent hair loss, although at the time I was only guessing. I'm quite grey on my hairline, myself, presumably because I have dyed my hair since accidentally using "Sun-in" as a teenager. I was self-conscious at the time, wearing braces. Now, I'm doing my best to reverse the greying with guesswork, more or less, but massaging with clove water and drinking fenugreek tea as well as taking many natural supplements, particularly as I have lots of health problems. I seem to be sensitive to light, especially artificial light, too. My body is nearly always in pain, and oxidative stress. I just got my prolactin levels tested, by random researchers. Learning new things as often as possible is surely necessary. It is such a confusing world in terms of human biology right now! My mother just go very bright halogen lights fitted all over her house, and my sister's hair has started to fall out. I'm wondering if there's a connection. I've noticed that greys look different under artificial lights/cloudy sky (blue-yellow light spectrum, then) yet blonde under sunlight. I'd love to know more about what transitions link hair regrowth in terms of light. Eg. When is blonde grey, and when is grey blonde?! Is that the middle ground of hair change? So much to learn yet.... I'm using henna and indigo powder once or twice per year to hide greys and recently decided to stop cutting my fringe in case it was maintaining the greys. I can't shake the feeling that my hairs don't like getting the chop! After massaging my hair, it feels strong and silky, although it only lasts for a few hours before appearing dry again. ;)

[@michaelrosenberg2420]

@@frang2023 Vast improvements! Since using Dutasteride for 4 months now the vellus hairs in the front have become thicker and longer, giving my mature hair far more thickness. My bald spot in the back of my head is slowly filling in as well. My daughter who has not seen me in months noticed immediately she said my hair looked excellent and way fuller. The only thing I have changed in my regimen ( Rogaine and microneedling ) is the addition of Duterstide over Finasteride. I know this, that I now have more and thicker hair than I did 10 years ago. My wife even says our recent family pictures prove that.

[@mattzoozb1385]

I didn't think DHT increased in a balding scalp, I thought just the _susceptibility_ to DHT increased, ie changes in gene expression in the follicles made them miniaturize.

[@PerfectHairHealth]

Currently, it's believed to be both! See this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mJuVpGVpoJyeqrs

[@SleepyKittyPaws]

I am pretty sure my thinning has started due to my excessive "activity" nearly two months ago that had produced a lot more DHT than usual. I have since then stopped and focus entirely on microneedling my entire scalp, then applying a topical solution containing minoxidil + finasteride, pressing it onto the scalp with my fingers. I used to be on oral finasteride (1mg) as well, but it seems like it wasn't strong enough to block out that much DHT. Right now, I have also added a topical dutasteride solution and soon, I will also add oral dutasteride (0.5mg) tablets. I have never tried scalp massages, but it seems they are definitely helpful.

[@sushi_takoyaki143]

the massaging theory makes allot of sense because back when I was around 16, my hair strands were thicker and my scalp was soo mushy my classmates loved pinching it. Overtime my scalp tensed up a bit and I am seeing thinner strands of hair but I am now starting on my scalp massage regimen and will observe this in a year.

An electric powered wearable cap scalp massager would be the best so I can just watch TV or do other things around my house. I have been applying Up & Up generic brand extra strength 5% Minoxidil I buy from Target for years applying daily after a shower and started to take Foligroth DHT blocker for about 6-8 months. The crown on my head has filled up and noticed baby hairs growing at my hairline. My scalp is still visible but the hair is getting denser. Also I haven’t seen or read anything on these types of hairgrowth YT videos saying getting Covid 19 contributed to hair loss but I believe I did experience it.

So I grew my hair out. It's about to my shoulders, or a little longer. I noticed a significant amount of scalp pain and even some numbness and tenderness. I remember back to childhood, those bad memories of getting a bump on your head and having it swell up. If you touch that tight painful bump that stinging sensation it would cause... That's how my whole scalp has started to feel. Here's why, from what I can tell. #1. I take stimulant ADD medication which has tightened up my jaw and facial muscles. #2. My wisdom teeth are impacted and that has caused my temple muscles to almost completely seize. #3. The long hair has significantly increase the weight of my scalp and the downward pull. #4. I consume far more caffeine than I used to and I am more sedentary than ever, with tight rigid shoulders filled with stress. I started catching myself massaging my scalp and pushing on all the tender muscle groups that are tied in knots on my temples and thought about how tight and shiny the scalps of bald men are. Started researching and he I am. I think you're onto something. I know that dht is extremely important, but I cannot deny the extreme scalp tightness and pain and how the tightest areas are 100% where there is thinning.

It's possible that an approach like this might work! However, two quick notes: (1) if you're facing rapid-onset pattern hair loss, it's probably a good idea to get more aggressive with your treatments (i.e., DHT reduction); (2) headstands might improve blood flow through preexisting capillary passages, but for the reversal of hair follicle miniaturization, we're really hoping for angiogenesis (i.e., the creation of new blood vessels in AGA-affected tissues).

[@liamkucht]

@@PerfectHairHealth How do we trigger angiogenesis? acute inflammation?

@@liamkucht Correct, as far as I know. Microneedling, microdermabrasion, intense massaging should lead to new blood vessel formation. Anything that temporarily causes (controlled) damage should promote bloodflow and the creation of new blood vessels.

[@DeepakRaj-s6n]

Bro it could be the same effects as minoxidil, minox increases blood flow to hair follicles which at first causes hair shedding for a couple of months but then that causes to grow newer and thicker hair. The same thing could be with scalp massaging, this is my own speculations but I would think you should stick to it.

[@rakeshmehra6321]

Good sign, you are losing the bad hair to get more stronger hair. When massaging, you are getting rid of those delicate hair which will fall anyway. Things take time. Give it 6 mo atleast.
