subject: Providing Dependable and Honest Answers For Thin Hair Women [print this page] Joining the ranks of thin hair women can be a troubling time in womans life, and can greatly diminish her self confidence. And rightfully so, after all much of womans life is wrapped around beauty, femininity, and stalling the aging process. People can pretend all they want that no one notices or that it isnt that bad but the cold hard truth is that it is serious concern that must be addressed sooner rather than later. Finding logical ways to protect existing hair while encouraging new hair growth should become a top priority. Studies show that womens hair thinning can occur for any number of reasons including poor nutrition, crash dieting, heredity, medications, dehydration, pregnancy and hormones. And this is just the short list! Nevertheless, the goal here is to find a solution for thin hair women that can help to restore their hair and their self confidence. Some women will choose expensive hair transplant surgery. While this procedure will help provide additional scalp cover it will not restore the original thickness and fullness of the hair. In addition, a hair transplant should not be performed until the person is sure the thinning process has stopped. If thinning or balding continues to progress after transplantation, the result can be an unusual pattern on the scalp. So you can see that hair transplant surgery is not for everyone and timing is important as well. Another option is the topical formula minoxidil (Rogaine, Loniten). There are concerns here as well. Certainly if you are rapidly joining the ranks of thin hair women your desire is to return the fullness you once enjoyed. Minoxidil has only a 20 percent chance of achieving this task. Despite its lackluster performance when asked to produce new growth this topical hair treatment works amazingly well when asked to protect existing hair. In fact studies show a 90 percent success rate. So far we have covered hair transplant surgery and minoxidil. Our third stop on our trip to find a viable solution for thin hair women takes us to that exotic destination of natural oils, herbs, and specific vitamins. There is good evidence to suggest that a combination of natural ingredients taken orally combined with topical minoxidil can indeed provide a powerful one two punch in your personal fight to overcome hair thinning. Some of the most often mentioned natural ingredients for womens hair re-growth are nettle root, uva ursi, gotu kola, pumpkin oil, almond oil, lavender, sage, vitamins B6, B12, and biotin, and the minerals zinc, and magnesium. Quite a list! From my experience the two ingredients that anecdotal evidence suggests are the most effective, in both protecting existing hair and re-growing new hair, are nettle root and biotin. The natural oils are not far behind but much depends on the underlying cause or causes. What Next? There are currently a handful of products for thin hair women which have been proven effective both in blocking harmful hormones and bringing the all important dead hair follicles back to life. These specially formulated treatments can be used both as a preventative tool, starting before hair loss becomes severe, or after loss of hair has become noticeable. Whatever the level of balding or thinning you are experiencing these products could be just what is needed to overcome this latest life challenge.
