October 20, 2022 by Dr. Baiju Gohil

Hair thinning and loss is an unfortunate reality for most of us. The vast majority of men – and nearly half of all women – will have experienced hair loss by the time they reach their senior years. Since hair loss affects many (but not all) people, it has continuously inspired people to ask why that is and try to figure out the reasons in an attempt to prevent hair loss in the future.

Coming to terms with the fact that you’re losing your hair is never easy but, when you do, the question is often… “What do I do next?”

September 29, 2022 by Dr. Baiju Gohil

Gray hair is caused by a lack of pigment cells in the hair follicles. Typically, this happens gradually as we age… but there are some conditions that can cause hair to go prematurely gray.

Hair loss can be the result of many different issues and factors – even including as a natural part of the aging process. Since both occur on your head, it’s not a strange idea to wonder if there is any connection between hair graying and hair loss.

Bald Villains: Does Hair Loss Equate with a Lack of Moral Fortitude in Fiction?

August 25, 2022 by Dr. Baiju Gohil

Hair loss is as old as humanity, so it should be considered as routine as any other appearance variance. Unfortunately, the tendency to depict people of low moral character as looking different, strange, or “other” has stigmatized traits associated with a less than perfect appearance.

That has real-world consequences for people with those traits. Worse, for those suffering from hair loss, this stigmatization contributes to poor self-esteem and being self-conscious about their hair loss.

What we eat, what we drink, the medicine we take, creams and lotions we apply, and even how much sunlight we expose ourselves to can have a major impact on our bodies. If we are not giving our bodies what they need, we can damage our digestive tract, teeth, skin, nails, and yes, even our hair.

Benefits Of Aloe Vera For Your Hair And Scalp

August 11, 2022 by Dr. Baiju Gohil

Aloe vera is a plant that’s been used for medicinal purposes since ancient times.
