Does cutting hair or shaving the scalp prevent hair loss?

 

If you do not suffer from hair loss, short or long hair does not have a positive or negative effect on the condition of your hair and you can keep your hair long or short according to your taste, and the belief that having long hair will cause hair loss in the future is wrong It does not apply to men or women.
Some men and women who suffer from hair loss mistakenly think that the reason for this hair loss is related to the fact that they kept their hair too long in their youth or previous years, but this is not the case. And other reasons can be the cause.
What about people with hair loss?
In these people, short or long hair has no effect on reducing hair loss. Of course, if you have brittle hair or have itchy hair, then cutting hair can be useful for you.

Why do some people think that shortening hair reduces hair loss?
When the hair is short, the lost hair is less visible, for example, when bathing or on the floor, and the person thinks that his hair loss has decreased, but in fact there has been no change in the amount of hair loss.
Now, if you are using anti-hair loss solution, short hair is a positive point because most of the solution is absorbed by your scalp.
In people with long hair, the hair prevents the solution from being completely absorbed through the skin because part of the solution comes in contact with the hair and is actually wasted.
Of course, this does not mean that if you are going to use a solution, your hair must be short. If you patiently apply the solution directly on the scalp with a dropper, you will get a good result. In other words, short hair makes it easier for you to use the solution.

How about shaving your head?
Shaving the hair is the same and has no positive effect on improving the condition of the hair.
So why do some people think that shaving their heads makes their hair thicker?
I will express my personal opinion. The belief that shaving the head makes hair thicker has its roots in antiquity.
In the past, haircuts were often done by parents of children 1 to 3 years old or teenagers. In the past decades, for example when I was a student, in many schools shaving my head or cutting my hair with a machine with a score of less than 8 was mandatory. was.
In both children and adolescents, various hormonal changes occur in their body that lead to their growth and development. These changes also increase the hair on the head or face. For example, boys develop facial hair for the first time during puberty. In fact, whether they cut their hair short or not, their hair density increases due to their age, but in the past, parents mistakenly thought that short hair was the cause.
In most children and adolescents, especially those whose parents care about their nutrition, their hair condition improves day by day until the age of 18, and after that, and especially after the age of 25, due to decreased hormone secretion and growth retardation. Their hair gradually shrinks.
