    I LOVE that you pointed out that some people think that they need to “ feel” someone in their hair. Umm not me. I would always point out when getting braids that they were too tight and either my mom or stylist would say “ oh you are just “tender headed”. If I braid to loose it will come out.” What came out was my hair and edges 😳.
    Very informative video.

  • @khadijahm49
    @khadijahm49 6 ปีที่แล้ว +11

    Hi Linwood, This information also applies to locs; where the re-twist or interlock method is done way too tight, then on top of that it gets styled in a tight up-do, which eventually will pull out the hair follicle. I did ask the hairstylist to interlock not so tightly, but this did not work, so I ended up not going to the salon anymore, and I have maintained my interlocking myself.

  • @JulietRobin
    @JulietRobin 6 ปีที่แล้ว +10

    This is valuable info. A hairdresser used to weave my hair. I kept telling her that she was platting it too tight and then pulling the thread even tighter. I noticed my hair thinning and it was horrible. I then asked her how come I was losing hair. Her response was old age. I was so horrified because I know i'm not much older than her. It's a long story why it took me so long to leave .But i left and got info from youtube. My natural hair got back longer and thicker but some of my edges are still damaged. I do wear natural twists and people call me "empress" because it looks nice. The point is that I will never weave my hair ever again. I wear wigs a lot but also use my natural hair. In this way I can moisturize and massage my scalp and sleep with my satin cap. I do not like the idea of sleeping with a wig on. The "got to be glue" people are using is not for me. Long ago people did not use glue.

    I believe I have traction alopecia. My hairline has receded a little. Although the difference is very little but there's thinning of hair in front of my head just below my hairline along with sensitivity in that area. Also I had experienced some inflammation and stinging pain around my hairline. Right now all I care about is growing back my hair where it has been thinned. I'm not sure if my follicles are still intact. What can help me grow out my hair back? It stresses me out a lot.

I have had tightly pulled hairstyles for years. my left side seems to be having less hairs, and parting is also wide. I have already stopped having tight hairstyle since few days, as I got that intuition that something is wrong. Will my hair grow now? Or Is treatment necessary to grow those hairs back that have fallen recently and keep the remaining hairs?

    I see so many of my coworkers that wear weaves, wigs and braids that have traction alopecia. The thing I find really sad is that some of these women are in fact natural, but you would never know that since you never see them without the weave. I can understand wanting to change it up, but I believe you should wear your natural hair and give it a break from all the extensions while you still have hair on your head.

  • @piney_studios
    @piney_studios 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The “blood supply” are actually little bulbs of keratin (protein) that supply’s the hair with nutrients!
    The follicle has not been pulled out
    Hairs that shed will also have the bulb, smaller ones being the hairs closer to the end of their life cycle (before it grows another or doesn’t grow due to aging or other factors)
    But in terms of the follicle u cannot see it getting pulled out. If it gets damaged or doesn’t have enough blood supply it could close temporarily or permanently and slowly become vellus hairs (the tiny thin translucent hairs u see over your body and hairline) and maybe even become scarred over to where there is no hair at all in that area.
    So do not worry! Shedding or thinning can be fixed with proper diet and sleep and health. Obviously traction alopecia is a bit of a different case with that being mechanical damage, but damaged follicles (from the pulling) could take 2-4 years to recover so if you do not see new hair growth for a while, do not panic. Healthy follicles will start regrowing hair after shedding a few months after. But damaged or pulled out hairs are different. Nonetheless they should produce new hair if not scarred or badly injured.
    The human body is strong guys, take care of it, don’t be too stressed because that affects hair health a lot, and try to stay positive.
    Ponytails itself are not extremely damaging, it is only if it is too tight, or you wear that style too often for a long period of time
    THERE IS HOPE YALL BEST OF LUCK.

    @AaronMetallion 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Thank you for this video. I only just discovered the reason for my mild balding. This is why. people kept telling me it's deficiencies, or genetics, or male pattern balding. But I knew those were not the case (I know my nutrition better than anyone else, track it daily for years on cronometer). I have grown my hair till my hips as a man (donor), and only during this time my hair has been under a lot of stress, inevitable pulling when asleep, or brushing knots, and as a motorcyclist my helmet tugs on my hairline too. All these combined has caused significant balding around my hairline in just 2 years. Don't take this lightly y'all. No men in my family are bald, even my dad at 70 has a crisp hairline. This is self inflicted.
    P.s a pharmacist told me he regrew his using a derma roller. Doesn't work on follicles that have died, but in areas where there thinning, the micro-needles will cause surface level punctures that encourage blood flow to the cite and healing in the area, offering the follicles more blood supply. Much love.

    I suffer from traction alopecia and it hit my self confidence, self esteem, and feeling hopeless. I’ve cut my hair completely off in 2015 it grow back so healthy and it starting falling back out 2017. I’ve been sick taking a lot of steroids for a course of years. Then January 2022 I caught Covid and was put on a lot of steroids due to me having other underlining health issue. That’s when I notice an increase of my hair falling out or my hair would dread up if I didn’t put in a ponytail. Plus getting steroids injections for both my hips. Last month I gotten really sick I thought I was going to die. I was transported to the hospital on C-Pap and they started loading more steroids into me. I remember I couldn’t breath I have a bunch of doctors and nurses around me screaming all these medical terminology and they had to put me on their C-Pap machine. I had my hair in a hair wrap and the nurse begin to take my wrap off and in between me trying to breath. I said please don’t take my hair wrap of due to me being embarrassed about the lack of hair I have on my head. I felt so vulnerable and embarrassed. The nurse was like. Ms.____ we’re trying to save your life. She notice the look on my face and she closed the curtain so nobody could see me. I’ve made a decision to cut what’s left of my hair. I don’t know should I go to the barbershop or the beauty shop. So keep me lifted in prayer as I take this new journey on embracing my bald head💪🏾👑✊🏾💇🏾‍♀️

      Rogaine will give you an idea of which hair roots are still active. However it's not a permanent solution. Here are things to avoid while recovering from traction aolpecia th-cam.com/video/-DZ-38t3ZZY/w-d-xo.html

      Derma rolling gives good results combined with natural plant extracts and oils.

    I am having extreme hairloss, Itching, scalp pain Since 2-3 months. I have had tightly pulled hairstyles for years. My edges are becoming exactly as you told . my left side seems to be having less hairs, and parting is also wide. I have already stopped having tight hairstyle since few days, as I got that intuition that something is wrong. Will my hair grow now? Or Is treatment necessary to grow those hairs back that have fallen recently and keep the remaining hairs?

      Yes ma’am, low tension styles and massaging the affected area with a small amount of all natural oil. The massage helps increase circulation and blood flow to the area, which helps stimulate growth

    • @GetGlamFam
      @GetGlamFam  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      With the scalp massage and changing the habits that caused it, you can see improvement, but it honestly depends on the extent of the damage to your follicles.

    • @aliciaxtreme2772
      @aliciaxtreme2772 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank you, I guess i can say I've seen improvement as an adult because it was worse as a kid, not being the one responsible. I oil and massage daily before bed. Any other habits I need to adapt?

    Good morning Linwood. I have this issue with my edges and was wondering isn't reversible?

    • @GetGlamFam
      @GetGlamFam  6 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      It can be reversed, so long as the dermal papilla has not been removed. In the meantime, try not to wear styles that pull on the edges, and massage the scalp daily with a SMALL amount of all natural oil. Keep in mind, the oil isn’t doing the trick, the massage is.
      It helps increase the circulation and increase the blood flow to the follicles.

    What hairstyles can you do with traction alopecia. I have very short natural hair and im just at a lost as to what to do with my hair as far as styling it. After having so many of the wrong people in my hair, im so afraid now, all I do is just wash it, moisturize it and pat it down. Wanted something nice for the hoildays/ my birthday.

I can send you pictures of it. I was relaxed as a child on top off constant crochet braids and pulled styles. When i got on my own i went natural

    Was this always your hairline or it thinned that way when you matured?
    I’m a 15 year old guy with long hair and I used to put it in a low bun a lot and I noticed lately that it started to thin at the temples so it had me worried, cause my dad’s bald (the only one in the family tho) and I’m worried that it’s early male pattern baldness
