Are you experiencing hair loss? Hair loss can be an uncomfortable subject, but it doesn’t have to be that way. Hair loss is a natural part of aging, and it isn’t as uncommon as you think. About 40% of men experience hair loss by age 35, and that percentage increases as they get older. If you are starting to experience hair loss, you shouldn’t worry! There are still many stylish ways to wear your hair. For the best results, make sure you don’t make any of the following common hair loss mistakes.
Don’t use too much product. You may mistakenly think that more product will cover up the hair loss. Unfortunately, the opposite is true. Using too much product in your hair will weigh it down and separate strands. The separation actually makes it more obvious that your hair is thinning. Remember, less is more! You should also be careful about how frequently you shampoo. The natural oils in your hair are necessary for texture and fullness. Shampoo every other day for the best results.
Don’t grow your hair out. It’s a totally normal reaction — many people erroneously believe that longer hair will hide the parts that are thinning. This is actually not the case. When the hair on the side of your head is significantly longer than the hair on top, the hair loss is actually more noticeable. Get regular trims to even out the hair length on all sides of your head. To take it a step further, get an entirely new style. There’s nothing wrong with a buzz cut or even shaving your head altogether.
Don’t neglect your facial hair. Having unkempt facial hair will bring more attention to the rest of your hair. A nicely groomed beard or mustache can make a world of difference. When the rest of your appearance is put together, any flaws in your hair will be less noticeable. Regular beard and mustache grooming is just as important as any other hair service!
