Why Baldness Can Never Be Cured
If you are among the many Americans who are a little thin on top or have lost a good amount of your hair outright you are familiar with the trauma that it can bring to you on an emotional level. It can absolutely devastate some people if they let it. There is an industry in the United States that knows that there are some people who would be willing to try anything and pay anything to attempt to regain their hair back. They have over the last 20 years come up with baldness remedies that they have been promoting to the public every chance they get. You have no doubt heard of "Rogaine" which is advertised as being able to regrow your hair back. You just rub some of this magic stuff on to your scalp and after a few months you will be back to looking like you did when you were 19 years old again with a thick full head of hair. Here is the problem with Rogaine and why it does not work. The reason people start to lose their hair is because the individual hair follicles on top of their heads, which produce the hairs, just start dying. They die the same way a plant dies or a flower in a pot. Over time the follicle begins to produce a thinner and thinner strand of hair until it just stops all together. The average human being has about 100,000 individual hair follicles on the top of his head. If you begin to lose your hair your not going to really notice anything is thinning usually until you have lost about 30,000 to 40,000 of those follicles with several thousand of the remaining ones beginning to go too. This is especially the case if you start losing your hair in the back of your head which you are not looking at every morning when you look in the mirror and you really dont notice until its too far gone usually. So if the reason that people suffer hair loss is because their individual hair follicles die is there anything that can be done to get those follicles back and get them to again produce hair growth? The answer is no. When something that was once alive dies you can be sure that it is going to stay dead. Nothing comes back from dying and Rogaine cant do anything about bringing dead hair follicles back to life either. Even in the ads for the stuff they say (in very fine print) "your results may vary." The reason they put that little phrase in the advertisments is a legal one. They put it in there so that they cant get sued by individuals who buy the product and use it and then discover that it does not work. The company can then go into court and say---well we told you that the results vary---It didn't work for you Mr. consumer? Oh well, too bad for you guy---and then THEY get to keep the money you spent on the snake oil they sold you. They make millions of dollars off the stuff annually selling people this empty promose that they can regrow their hair back. The only 2 things that work for hair loss are Hair transplants or wigs.
