Common Hair Problems & How to Fix Them

Even the best haircut can’t hide unhealthy hair. Here are some frequent issues and what to do about them:

1. Hair Loss / Thinning Hair

• Cause: Genetics, stress, poor diet, or harsh styling.

• Fix: Use gentle, sulfate-free shampoo, avoid tight hairstyles, and consider products with biotin or caffeine. A shorter cut can also give the illusion of fuller hair.

2. Dry or Itchy Scalp

• Cause: Overwashing, product buildup, or dandruff.

• Fix: Use a moisturizing shampoo and scalp treatment. Try not to scratch — instead, massage the scalp gently to improve circulation.

3. Greasy Hair

• Cause: Overactive oil glands or frequent touching.

• Fix: Wash less often with a clarifying shampoo, and avoid heavy wax or pomades if your scalp is naturally oily.

4. Frizz or Flyaways

• Cause: Lack of moisture or humidity.

• Fix: Use leave-in conditioner or anti-frizz cream. A good haircut that works with your natural texture can also help reduce frizz.

🚫 5 Hair Myths Most Men Still Believe

1. “Washing my hair every day keeps it clean.”
Nope. Overwashing can strip natural oils and dry your scalp.

2. “Cutting hair more often makes it grow faster.”
Hair growth happens from the scalp, not the ends. Trims help with split ends, not speed.

3. “Only women need conditioner.”
Wrong again — every hair type benefits from conditioner. Especially curly or dry hair.

4. “Hair gel is bad for your hair.”
Not if used correctly. The key is to wash it out properly and avoid alcohol-heavy products.

5. “Baldness comes from your mother’s side.”
Hair loss is genetic — but it can come from either side of the family.
