community Hair loss research focused on chemistry for decades because we misunderstood the mechanics of growth.

in Research/Science 48 upvotes 6 months ago

Hair growth relies on mechanical forces, not just chemicals, with tissue acting like a motor. Minoxidil and finasteride help, but maintaining tissue elasticity and addressing mechanical issues are essential.

community Occipitalis Muscle Tension Theory

in Treatment 14 upvotes 6 months ago

Scalp tension from the occipitalis muscle is theorized to contribute to hair loss, but most believe DHT and genetics are the main causes. Treatments like finasteride and minoxidil are considered more effective than addressing scalp tension.

community How to deal with mechanically induced shedding

in Minoxidil 5 upvotes 10 months ago

Minoxidil can cause scalp dryness and flaking, leading to hair shedding when exfoliating. Alternatives like oral Minoxidil, finasteride, and ketoconazole shampoo are suggested to manage these issues.
