A member asked:
Can bleaching your hair really help someone fool a hair follicle?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Bleaching your hair does not send any signal to the hair follicles. For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, low fat milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. Practice safe sex.
