Is there any medication which leads ur hair to re grow in the bald area which i could see over my forehead its not baldness as per my dermatologist but i know how my hairs were and how it is now
So can u advice me please Priyadarshani Jai Prakash replied. Dear Pooja,

At a stage in my life i was just as worried as you are. But later i realized it could be my fright of becoming bald made me worry. I tried different hairdos and developed confidence over my looks and did realize that it is nothing like i was worried about. But before i tell you anything else, i want you to try this out first.

MONITOR YOUR HAIRLINE for a month.

... and when you are doing this be very critical about yourself and dont perform this test without confidence. it is very simple. measure your length of your forehead accurately from your upper eyebrow to the hairline. if there are slight variations, may be in millimetres, may be in a week or two, and after a month if you are not satisfied with the result, then it is advisable to consult a good dermatologist. ayurvedic practitioners have very good herbal oils that rejuvenates growth of lost hair. there is one particular oil that grows hair like mad. i dont remember the name of the oil, but it must be applied only on places where hair needs to be grown and contact of the oil on anyother part of the skin will rejuvenate hair growth on that area. it is a very powerful oil.

next try taking some considerable amount of strands on your forhead in your hands and pulling it upward - not very hard though- with little pressure. if 2 or 3 strands come off the root, then there is a chance you are likely balding.

if these two tests bring favourable results, YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY NOT GETTING BALD FOR ANOTHER 20 YEARS!

besides, there are certain precautions to help avoid loss of hair on the forehead:

remember, when you wipe your sweat, dont scrub till your hairline. specially dont do it hard.

when you have washed your hair, dont tie your hair up with a towel. this exerts a lot of pressure onthe hair root which is generally very weak after bath. dont bundle your hair up on your head and scrub it with shampoo to see a lot of lather. dont wash you hair like clothes. treat your hair like you would treat a baby.

dont torture your hair by tying it up tight either as a pony tail or a tight plat. french plats do the worst to your hair. go for simple hair style that will not exert lot of pressure on you hair roots. let air penetrate into your scalp. they need to breathe!

when you comb your hair or when you are trying to remove tangle, dont be hard with a narrow toothed comb. first use a wide toothed comb and then the narrow one. it is best to use to comb kit that is available in the market and it is inexpensive too. dont comb your hair backwards. instead make a centre parting and comb it so that hair falls on both your sides of your shoulder.

dont keep touching your hair often and keep pushing the hair fomr your hairline back often. once you have done your hair, let it be the way it is.

many have the habbit of having fringes on the front to cover the lengthy forehead. one thing is that it tends to make it more obvious to people that one is hiding the length. next thing is that we try to set it right very often by pushing it with our hands. this gives continuous pressure to the hair root. avoiding having a fringe will surely help.

take protein rich food every day - 2 almonds in the morning and 2 almonds before going to bed will not only do good to your hair, it will also make your skin bright. almonds are not fatty. so dont worry. take spinach (palak/keerai) everyday!spinach is the best thing for your hair. take vitamin supplements like Vitamin A, E and C tablets / capsules every day either after breakfast or dinner. use almond oil and parachute coconut oil mixture for your hair. go to ggogle, type 'ayurvedic oils to rejuvenate hair growth' and the first ayurvedic link on the page is the gateway for your problem. if you need more help there are doctors to help you. the service is free. ask them for the best hair growth rejuventaing oil.

besides, why not think like this - ?
have you seen a few actresses - they have long foreheads, but they dont cover it with a fringe. long foreheads are beautiful. we are not bald. and the best of hairdos are done on people having long foreheads. we are lucky - you and i. so stop worrying, pooja, and start making beautiful and simple hairdos. you have forgotten that bewitched word that has been upsetting you, pooja, havent u?

all my love,
Priya.
