Sebum is vital for hair, but sebum can be oxidiced passing the time, this is the problem, It needs to be eliminated at the same rate as it is manufactured.
You should bottle your hair oil mix and sell it on amazon. You would make a fortune xD

Ye
:) I need to figure out some fancy marketing and sell fatty acid/DMSO mixture.
Yes and add in some other stuff like rosemary and sh*t to make it more special. Two ingredients wont cut it. When you have succeeded and become rich I will move in with you and be your twink bottom boy and say (oh daddy) while you f*** me.

Yep the new hairs are still growing and I am posting a 12 week update picture on the 5th. The fatty acid stuff can definitely save some follicles if there is anything left of them under the skin surface I guess.

I saw 2 NW7s at the grocery store the other day and their heads were shining like crazy under those lights. I guess it was sebum doing that.

I am also a big believer mechanical tension is behind most male balding and the inflammation it creates is what makes DHT park itself there in males. Its not 100% like some people act like but the shape changes the odds so much it has to be a huge factor.
Look forward to seeing results, maybe you managed to actually fight against the inflammation and fibrosis topically very interesting.

I'm 100 convinced on muscle tension is ultimately causing this inflammation. Genetics will play a very small role like they do with everything. Also skull shape (also caused by muscle tension / posture from young age as skull develops) but not a lot can be done with these other than meds for bad genetics which I refuse to entertain (but agree they can help).

When people talk about posture they look externally which does have some tell tale signs but the deep tension which is actually causing the galea to tighten and inflamed are deep inside shoulder muscles and occupatalis etc is very hard to see from outside. But show me some pics of bald v non bald people and I can almost always see a difference with both alignment and shoulder tension.

People also say women have bad posture etc but thier overall muscle mass and interior tension is minimal although so doesn't affect galea as much, when you do see a women with receeded hairline usually neck is also out of alignment compared to most women, it all adds up.

It's so hard to change posture habits and people grow into a posture over many years I am currently focussing all my efforts in reducing upper traps tension which imo is the main culprit which starts the chain reaction by pulling down SCM / levator scapulae and then sub occipitalis ~ occupilatis.

There is no doubt the occipitalis directly connects to galea and pulls it back, so doing all I can to reduce this tension.

Yep a lot of possibilities. The computer model showing the forces and how a more box shape reduces that was what first sold me I think and how that generally aligns with most 30+ guys and people like me that hardly have an issue in the frontal area but have the vertex shape that would point to vertex balding eventually and of course the people with the alright vertex area but major frontal balding seem to overwhelmingly have that rounded off shape where the hairline and forehead originally met.

Ppl looking down on their phones alot like I do causes me a stiff neck.

Baby. My friend has a NW0 hairline but balding at the back of his head ONLY. While I have stayed a norwood 2 for a decade but got this diffuse thinning going on all over the head including above the ears. We are all so different.

Diffuse thinning is the hardest one to try to explain why it would form in that pattern.

100 percent phone posture is an issue. Another main one is the alignment of how people's heads sit on top of rib cage. It's hard to explain, but someone can have forward head posture yet still have decent overall alignment, while someone whose ears appear in line with their shoulders may still have poor alignment. By alignment, I mean how the neck stacks and connects with the rib cage, not just the head position from the side.

Basically Imo the further down the neck starts 'stick out' from chest the worse the alignment, which partly causes the chronic internal muscle tightness.

Womens alignment is far better overall..

Galea issues can play a minor effect in common baldness but it don't explain gender differences.
I'll bet $100 that if a study were done on the incidence of common alopecia and the "physical" characteristics of hair, it would show that people with denser, thicker hair—and I'm not talking about hair length—would have a lower incidence of common alopecia. This would support my theory.

Its called ANDROGenetic hairloss for a reason. Not inflammationgenetic hairloss LMAO. Boys hitting puberty and they go fully bald at 20.

So people who retain more hair generally have denser thicker hair? This is one of the most obvious statements I've ever read and has nothing to do with bone structure / galea.

Also men generally have much thicker/larger galea and usually greater neck/scalp muscle tension, just ask Chatgpt.

20 is not young at all when considering bone structure (fully developed) or muscle tension. People win Olympic gold medals at 13, so loads of time to lose your hair through this if it's bad enough.

I think the male/female difference is almost entirely the curse of DHT being used to react to the issue in men and females getting protection from estrogen also besides not having the DHT issue.

Yes. I was nw2 at 23. So it started much earlier. Most ppl who start balding young are fucked and no stupid jojoba and essential oils can save them like this old fool thinks xD. Try not to have a conversation with armando jose. He is a senile 67 year old man and litteraly believes topical oils works better than finasteride and min. He litteraly said it. Its always the old people in their 50s 60s that make up stupid theories.

DHT is present in scalp hairs a lot of years before puberty, childrens have hair sebum for this reason

Have they ever done a study to compare how much DHT is parked around the follicles in a guy that has his hair compared to a female or a balding guy compared to a female? I would like to see the results on that. I am a hard head like most of us here but I am definitely stuck on the belief that the primary issue is inflammation and DHT in males is the reaction to that like pouring gasoline on a barely surviving fire. Imo the "genetic" tendency is mostly just more inflammation equals more DHT parking itself there and not people having less resistance to it. Imo its why the top of head shape correlates with chances of balding so much.
