A receding hairline can occur in both men and women, however, it is more common in men. Most men show signs of a receding hairline in their 30s. If you are losing hair on a regular basis and your hairline is moving higher, it’s receding. The process usually starts above the temples. From there, the hairline moves back across the top of the head. While the phenomenon is fairly common, sometimes, it could be one of the first signs of male pattern baldness. Therefore, it is important to take a receding hairline seriously and delve into the causes.
Hormonal changes in men and women can trigger hair loss and cause a receding hairline. A hormone called DHT (Dihydrotestosterone) is responsible for male secondary sex characteristics like body hair. Male pattern baldness is directly related to this hormone as it can shrink the hair follicles to the point that they can no longer grow hair. Hormone changes caused by pregnancy, menopause, and thyroid can also lead to a receding hairline.
A receding hairline can be linked to family history as well. It is a hereditary trait; therefore, men with a family history of baldness are more likely to lose their hair.
Stress is one of the major causes of a receding hairline. Stress-induced hair loss is called telogen effluvium.
Your lifestyle choices can directly influence your hair health. Unhealthy lifestyle choices like smoking, lack of exercise, lack of protein in the diet, and an unhealthy diet can hinder hair growth.
Laser therapy using red light at a wavelength of 660 nanometers may increase hair growth in some people and reduce male pattern baldness. This procedure is non-invasive and painless.
You are what you eat. An unhealthy diet can affect your hormones and lead to hair problems. Switch to a healthy diet full of fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean protein, and plenty of water. You can also take supplements for the following vitamins and minerals:
Scalp massages can be very beneficial if you are struggling with a receding hairline. Regular massages improve blood circulation in the scalp and stimulate the hair follicles to grow. Nourishing oils like rosemary, lavender, and peppermint oil are known to promote hair regrowth. You can mix these oils with carrier oils like olive oil or coconut oil.
