Question 5

my hair is too thin n dry what should i do?

Accepted Answer

See a dermatologist: Decrease stress. Eat a healthy balance diet which includes protein. Have thyroid levels and iron stores checked. See a dermatologist for evaluation and work-up. Topical Minoxidil twice a day is the only proven remedy to thicken hair. However, this treatment it is not appropriate for everyone (given the warnings, precautions, and contraindications). See and discuss options with a dermatologist.

Question 6

what is the healthiest way to dry your hair?

Accepted Answer

No unhealthy way: I have never heard of an unhealthy way to dry hair. It's up to you whether you air dry, towel dry or use a blow dryer. It's been reported that excessive heat might be damaging to hair, but don't forget that hair is dead, not live. So it's up to you to decide, based upon effect on appearance.

Question 7

Irritation: When tweezing, you are ripping hair out by the roots, causing irritation to the hair follicle(can also get scarring be careful), whichnmanifests itself as dryness and flaking.

Question 8

my hair is very dry and even the density is low what should i do?

Accepted Answer

Dry and Thin Hair : Beauty salons revel in a panoply of products that purport to add body and moisture to your hair, but you want to be sure that you don't have an underlying dermatologic condition, marginal diet, or certain systemic disorders such as lupus or scleroderma. If this issue with your hair represents a new change, and you seem to be losing hair, it is best to consult with your doctor.

Question 9

i have very very dry and thin crown hair.please suggest me what to do?

Accepted Answer

Depends on cause...: One's primary care doctor can check for medical causes. If none are found, then one can see a dermatologist, especially one specializing in hair restoration (some treatments: minoxidil, etc, ...). Medical causes may include: hormonal problems (low thyroid), seborrhea, alopecia areata, stressful illness. Other causes: genetic male/female pattern baldness, telogen effluvium.

Question 10

i blow dry my hair every night after i wash it. does that dry out the hair?

Accepted Answer

Blow drying hair: Either set your hair dryer on medium heat, or alternate between hot and cold. If the hair dryer is constantly on the "hot" setting, your hair will dry out and lose its silky finish.
