    Hi people. For those who can't get this type of help I'll tell you what helped me. Stopped alcohol like completely, sugar too(only sugar I got was from fruits and one's I couldnt avoid in like baked beans),halfed my meat intake(completely cut out pork) started taking turmeric at night before bed so it would work in the body as I slept without interruption, up'd my water intake and also started drinking kefir. I also made a hair oil for myself which comprised of 70% pimkinseed oil, 10% pepermint oil, 10% tea tree oil and 10% hemp oil. I noticed a BIG difference In the inflammation. My scalp stoped itching completely and the tenderness + sores/bumps I had on scalp subsided. hair loss stopped too. Hair regrowth has been slow but for sure its grown a little. Its all about discipline and patience. Also very important LEAVE YOUR HAIR ALONE. I'm a black guy and I know ladies this would be harder for you to do but trust me leave it alone. Peace

      Unfortunately no matter what natural organic products I've used it never fully grew back, I now have thin hair and use Nanogen hair fibres to fill in the thin parts and hair spray to keep it in place. Once you kill those hair follicles with chemicals it's not coming back short of a hair transplant.

Eventually the hairs grew back but I lost hair and I have a bald spot in the middle of my head. I went to a dermatologist (white doc) he diagnosed me with alopecia areata. Now as I am typing this coming from another dermatologist office (the doc is black

    Grow back. She prescribed an oil that I have to use for the rest of my life so it doesn’t spread.

      Those in Colorado. Any good dermatologists in your area will know how to treat "scarring alopecia". There's more than one type. Scarring alopecia can affect anyone but CCCA is the one seen in 98% of AA. The treatment will be the same as the other scarring alopecia's bcos at the cellular level they're all the same. It's the inflammation that kills the stem cell in the follicle in all the "scarring alopecia's". Once the stem cell is gone that follicle scars over and no hair will ever grow there again..its permanent!. The scarring alopecia's have different characteristics that give it their name thus CCCA bcos it occurs in the central section of the scalp. Frontal fibrosis(another scarring alopecia) occurs near the forehead and extends back toward the crown. You'll need a biopsy to see which alopecia "scarring OR non-scarring" you have and then they'll know how to treat it. The thing is to get to a dermatologist asap!..the longer you wait the more damage that's occuring . Just find a good dermatologists in your area who has treated and/or understands alopecia(Im sure most do). Im in Dallas and couldn't find a black derm..I got desperate and just found a dermatologist(I ask questions to vet them). She is white but knew exactly what to do after my biopsy results. I had 2 different types of alopecia's and early CCCA was one of them. She gave me my treatment regimen and 2 months later, I can actually cornrow that sparse hair I had but it's still thin bcos I waited tooooo long and some of my follicles have already scarred over but at least the medicine has stopped the inflammation from spreading further..so now my scalp is healing and regenerating hair in the areas where the follicles were sick but still viable. Please go see a derm in your area cos at least you'll know which alopecia you actually have. I know how you feel and I hope I've helped someone. It's emotionally devastating SO be proactive and go see ANY good dermatologist in your area. You'll feel more empowered. Best to everyone.

      @sable7114 3 года назад

      Yes, like the beta blocker blood pressure medications and like chemotherapy and some instances. If you have to take a medication always ask your pharmacist if it has the side effect of hair loss. Sadly most times The Physician does not know. There are so many drugs to keep up with that I trust the pharmacist more in that area. They can at least give you a printout on the drug that you're taking so that you can read about the side effects. Physicians usually rely heavily on the drug reps who come in to promote their drugs.

  • @ParisDavisDean
    @ParisDavisDean 3 года назад +22

    I've done a video on my hair falling out; I guess this is why I got the recommendation.
    My dermatologist suggested I stop putting perms in my hair years ago when all of my hair was falling out. I was diagnosed with "Traction Alopecia" & "Seborrheic Dermatitis". Going natural helped me. I was chosen to be in a few events after my hair grew back. One day I was chosen to be a Black Panther in the movie "Forest Gump". At the time....they wanted someone who could wear a real Afro. It was a blessing I had just stopped wearing those perms. My hair grew back nice.
    Nowadays I watch my diet, whatever I feed my body, I'm feeding my mind, my hair, actually my entire body. I move, exercise no less than 20 minutes a day to get that blood circulation flowing. I get some sun, take my vitamins, I drink water, collagen, meditation, sleep, eat lots of fruits and veggies. I lean my head out the side of my bed some mornings slowly to get that blood flowing to my scalp. Sounds strange, but it works for me. Now that I'm older I have the patience to do all these things. I remember a time where I did not wrap my hair. I also remember when I use to eat a lot of pizza and hamburgers, I drank Kool-Aid, lots of sweet cake, pies, sodas, ate a lot of cheese, milk. My skin and hair was jacked up. Everything seemed to flare up on my body. I've come a long way. Ooohwee. I still have to be mindful of my lifestyle; when I stop exercising or indulge in certain foods; I see it in my skin and hair immediately. On my body.... this traction alopecia it's like a cold. It will reveal itself after all those years. This was back in 89/90 when I was in that dermatologist chair. I didn't want to hear the truth about letting go of that perm, or even my diet. SMH. It took me years to get it. I have to switch up on things sometimes vitamins etc. It just depends. Everyone is different, but basically almost the same. The pain is real. I try not to stress about it . Be Hopeful everyone. Takes time and patience along with great Dr's like Dr. Ross here to help us. 🙏🏾 Nice video and thank you Dr. Ross for sharing.

    They need to come out with a product that can hold moister for maybe a week or two..since the black woman's hair especially, needs stimulation for growth, pores open for breathing as well as absorbing, which water and hair food oils help lock the hair follicles, when twisted or braided from the scalp prevents dryness.
