I promised myself I wouldn't look in the sink...

[Aplunk1]

But I did.

Wow... too many to count. Hairs everywhere.

One swoop of the brush, and I get LOADS of hair...

Worst thing is, the Rogaine I've been using (For a month or two now-- my Foam is in the mail) has caused me some serious dandruff.

My friends kept starting at it, saying, "Get some Head and Shoulders, dude."

Man, these shampoos don't really cut it. Maybe I get too much Rogaine on the hairs themselves, but it's really pissing me off.

I can't wait until my Foam arrives.

But anyway,

I'm f*****g pissed.

f*****g pissed that I have to look in the mirror and say to myself, "You're not going to look young ever again."

Some f*****g life.

 

[Aplunk1]

Losing my hair and dandruff is ruining my f*****g life...


I'm losing it.

I f*****g hate it.

EVEN on my f*****g vacation.

Piece of sh*t, mother f****r, goddamn, son of a b**ch, c***, pussy, c***-gagging shithead f****r

Aplunk man, you got your hair loss in control, im not just saying that, im saying this because ive seen your pics!! Your lucky, me and you have very similar hair loss, along with our brothers leadind the way for us. Your doing much better than me!!
As for the dandruff, that shet will go, takes a bit of time, but it will go. Hang in there man, dont let some white flakes get you feeling so down.

 

[Guest]

Shut the f*** up Askas. It's completely unnecessary for you to troll every thread that Aplunk makes.

Aplunk I agree with goingat20 in that it is ridiculous for you to let some dandruff flakes affect you that much. I can understand the baldness getting you down, but the dandruff? Dandruff is only temporary. Hang in there

 

[Aplunk1]

Thanks Going@20 and Jayman,

yeh, but I just effing hate going through REALLY bad shedding cycles... it's like non-stop with dutasteride. It'll stop for a few days, no hairloss... then it will go off like fireworks, hair falling out everywhere...

I mean, all the hairs have bulbs and are being "shed," but it's so hard to see them keep falling out.

Yeah, I just needed to get some frustration out.

 

[Aplunk1]

Yeah, and Askas, you do troll my threads...

I find some of your beliefs less than constructive... some even disparaging.

STOP f*****g LOOKING AT HOW MANY HAIRS YOU LOSE. honestly youve been on this site for a long time now and you still cant get yourself to stop looking at the drain?
its not that friggin hard . STOP Looking at ur hand. When u wash your hair, wash your hands off without looking at them. Let the water run after ur done a little longer so that the hairs go down the drain. Cut your hair shorter so that you dont notice the ones that fall out. GET A GRIP on yourself, the stress that you are putting on yourself WILL make you lose more hair.

Sometimes ignorance is bliss. you really need to get a hold of yourself every week its a new post about how you counted hairs. STOP.

 

[s.a.f]

I agree, stop looking at the hair in your sink even if you find 100's falling out all that matters is how the hair on your head looks. And yours looks good!

Ignorance IS bliss, couldn't have said it better myself. I stopped looking at hair in the sink/shower/pillow months ago. It's just unnecessary stress it would cause me.

I mean, all the hairs have bulbs and are being "shed," but it's so hard to see them keep falling out.

What's the significance of the white bulb? All the hairs I lose have white bulbs...what does that suggest?

Thanks

I'd like to chime in that your hair is fine. You shouldn't give two shits how many are falling out.

However I don't think that it's hairloss that's wrong with you. You seem to have a very weak personality, and can't handle much stress. For what reasons I don't know.

Do you wake up some days full of confidence only to have it smashed because of something little? Like a bit of dandruf.

It might be possible your 'laser beaming' all of your problems into your "hair loss". Like all of the internal things that you've been through can be contained unless you start to worry about the thought of how you look on the outside.

I think that's what I get. Although not nearly to the greatest extent you do (taking into consideration i'm a NW3 at age 18.) At age 16 when I was a NW2 and I saw hairs falling out, I didn't care and life was a blast.

Thanks Spec,

I tend to have outburts. It am overcome with tranquility after writing harsh posts, such as the aforementioned one.

Yeah Spec, I often can have a great day, full of confidence, until something minute goes astray, such as hair fall. I'm working on it...



Skaff,

a bulb on the end of the hair is an indication that the follicle has "shed" the hair-- it has officially been released out of the growing phase and goes into the dormancy phase for about 90 days, until which time it begins growing a new hair.

A bulb at the end of your hair is a GOOD thing.

 

[Guest]

every hair that falls out has a bulb, unless it broke off for some reason. look at the size of the bulb to determine how thick the shaft it's on was. some hairs that shed where you can't see the bulb still have them, they're just too tiny for you to see. this means that the hair was aggressively miniaturizing pre-shed, and chances of thickening are slimmer.

a few of my hairs don't have bulbs, and i shed these hairs because sometimes i don't shampoo for a few days, so my hair gets brittle and breaks off.

 

[Skaff]

I'd like to think the bulb is a good sign, but I can honestly say I've never seen a hair fall out without a bulb and I'm definitely thinning.

Lol, I thougt the same. I have to force myself to not look at my hands when I am shampooing, but it really hurts to know that hairs will be lost while doing so.

It would be lost in other way.
