1.Over Exercising

So, the first factor I want to talk about the coming of the Annals of Dermatology in 2017 study and they talk about the link of over-exercising and hair loss. In the study, they showed guys that were burning closer to 4,000 calories a week consistently for three months, what they found is that these guys were shedding more hair than normal. Now, the good news here is when these guys stopped over-exercising all of a sudden their hair production went back up, they weren’t shedding as much hair. Gentlemen, when you exercise you’re putting stress on your body. Exercise, but don’t overdo it.

2.Wearing Hat

Now, this next factor is closely related to a myth, and that myth is that if you wear a hat if you wear a headwear that’s going to lead to you losing your hair. That’s not true. There is no research that has proven that. However, they have shown that if you wear dirty headwear, we’re talking headwear that can lead to scalp infections, then in that case, yes, this can lead to hair loss. If you’re going to go to that trustee baseball cap all the time, make sure to wash it make sure to clean it. Headwear is not going to cause you to lose your hair unless you’re wearing it too long, it’s dirty, and it’s causing an infection.

3.Hair Style

So, the next strange factor that’s going to cause you to lose your hair, the wrong hairstyle. So, this whole thing with the man bun and cornrows and some of these other styles that put a lot of stress on the hair, this can lead to hair loss. And, what’s interesting is the research that I read on this it was all geared actually talking about women that pull their hair back in tight ponytails. So, I’m going to make I’m going to infer that this can apply to men. And with some of these hairstyles, again, that are pulling your hair back, you’ve got to be careful, if you overdo this, if you stress the hair physically, yes, this can cause your hairline to recede.

4.Male Pattern Baldness

Now, when it comes to male pattern baldness, two out of three of us are going to experience it before the age of 35. And, as many of you guys know, losing your hair is not an old man thing, it can happen in your 40’s, in your 30’s, in your 20’s, and even your teens. The good news, gents, there are proven treatments to stop hair loss in its tracks. And, gents, that’s not you go bald. Basically, what they did figure out is if your androgen gene receptor is boosted, you’re going to grow more hair on other parts of your body and you’re going to lose it on your head.

5.Stress And Hair Loss

Now, let’s talk about stress and hair loss. This is something many of you guys have heard, but what you haven’t heard is there are actually three types of stress which can lead to hair loss. Now, the first one is telogen effluvium and this is actually where the stress puts your hair in a resting state for longer than it should be. This can lead to massive hair loss, basically where your hair just rest and then it starts to fall out because it’s not basically growing and not doing what it needs to do.

Next up, we’ve got trichotillomania, and this is where stress leads you to pull on your hair and you literally pull out. Now, on average a guy will lose fifty to a hundred and fifty hairs a day, but when you’re pulling on it, you’re going to lose a lot more and over time, this habit can lead to hair loss.

Next up, we’ve got alopecia areata, and this is where in high levels of stress your body actually starts to attack your hair. I’m not sure how this happens, but it’s a real thing. The point here, gents, stress really can lead you to losing your hair, so decompress, go for a walk, exercise.

6.Anabolic steroids

Now, let’s talk about anabolic steroids. And, I know there’s a wide variety out there, but I am going to talk about steroids, in general, are going to lead to an increase in production of DHT. DHT causes baldness. So, if you’re going to be using steroids, understand that if you’re not using them under the prescription of a doctor that there are side effects. One of the side effects is you can lose your hair very quickly.

7.Smoking

Next up, let’s talk about smoking. This is based on a 2003 study that clearly showed that whenever you smoke this affects the microvascular of the dermal hair. So, what they found is that the smoke particles directly damage the DNA of the hair. They also found that smoking caused an imbalance with how our scalp reacted to your hair and this imbalance could actually lead to shedding. And, gents, if that’s not bad enough, apparently it would also lead to fibrosis, so basically as the hair is shredded out you would have scarred over were basically the follicle left which would then prevent other hair from coming out.

8.Diet

So now, let’s talk about your diet. A lack of iron can lead to hair loss and this has been clearly shown in both men and women. So, where are you going to get iron, guys? You want to add to your diet red meat, you want to add lentils, maybe liver, kidneys, spinach, raw peaches, prunes, prune juice, raw or dried apricots, broccoli tops, potato skins, almonds. Get iron into your diet otherwise, you could start to lose your hair. Now, what about foods that can prevent hair loss? There are a few people that are going to say yes that the eating of eggs and specifically it’s going to be the protein and it’s going to be the biotin, two nutrients that promote hair growth. I’ve also read some reports talking about higher intakes of Vitamin C. So, you’ll find that in oranges, lemons, you’re going to find this in berries, but basically, it’s going to protect your hair from free radicals.

9.UV radiation

Now, this next one is a factor that many of you guys have suspected, but you maybe didn’t know specifically why, and that is UV radiation, so overexposure to the sun. Why is this going to damage your hair? Well, it can specifically actually damage the hair itself, it can lead to it being more brittle, it can actually the UV rays can go in there and damage the hair follicles. But, let’s talk specifically about exposing the scalp to the sun.
Let’s say you’ve got a thinning hairline up here on top, you’re thinking on the back, all of a sudden you’re out in the sun fifteen, twenty-five minutes. The problem here is you’re basically producing more of superoxide. This can prematurely age it and all of a sudden you’re going into the shedding phase earlier than you should have. Basically, you’re going to lose that time and you’re going to shed more hair.

10.Bad Sleep Pattern

Now, this next factor is going to surprise some of you guys because you wear it as a badge of honor that you’re not getting much sleep. Well, guess what? If you’ve got a bad sleep pattern and not sleeping six or fewer hours per night. Yes, guys, you need a lot more sleep. Me, personally, eight to nine. If you’re not getting sleep, yes, you are losing your hair because you’re causing more stress on your body, you’re not giving it time to recover.

Take care of your body, get more sleep. And I know many of you guys like Antonio, how can I get more sleep? I’ve got a million things to do. In this article right here, I talk about how to wake up early so you can get things done, but also how to set up systems so you go to bed at decent hour, you get plenty of uninterrupted sleep so that you can hit the day running.
