My Hair Loss Journey: From Despair to Hope

How I discovered the root cause of my hair loss?

By HealPointPublished 3 years ago 5 min read

I used to love my hair. It was long, thick, and shiny. I loved styling it in different ways, from braids to curls to buns. I loved how it made me feel confident and beautiful.

But then, something changed. I started noticing more and more hair on my pillow, in my shower drain, and on my brush. I started seeing more and more scalp through my hair. I started feeling more and more insecure and depressed.

I tried everything to stop my hair loss. I bought expensive shampoos, conditioners, oils, and masks that promised to restore my hair. I visited different doctors and dermatologists who prescribed me various medications and treatments. I spent hours online researching the causes and cures of hair loss.

Nothing worked.

I was losing hope. I was losing myself.

I was about to give up when I stumbled upon an article that changed everything.

The article was about vitamin deficiency and how it can cause hair loss. It explained that vitamins are essential nutrients that our body needs for various functions, including hair growth and maintenance. It also listed the most important vitamins for hair health, such as vitamin D, B-vitamins, and zinc.

The article made me realize that I had been neglecting my nutrition for a long time. I had been eating mostly junk food, skipping meals, and avoiding sunlight. I had been suffering from stress, fatigue, and mood swings. I had been taking medications that could interfere with my vitamin absorption.

I decided to take action. I ordered a vitamin test kit online and sent my blood sample to a lab. The results confirmed my suspicion: I had a severe vitamin deficiency.

I immediately started taking vitamin supplements to correct my deficiency. I also changed my diet and lifestyle to improve my overall health. I ate more foods that were rich in vitamins that support hair growth, such as:

Fatty fish, eggs, dairy products, meat, poultry for vitamin D and B-vitamins

Nuts, seeds, beans, lentils, dark leafy greens for zinc

Citrus fruits, avocado, bananas for other B-vitamins

I also exposed myself to natural sunlight for at least 15 minutes a day to boost my vitamin D production.

But that was not all.

I also discovered another natural and effective solution for hair growth that I had never heard of before: red light therapy cap.

What is Red Light Therapy Cap?

Red light therapy cap is a device that fits over your head and emits low-level laser or LED light to your scalp and hair follicles. The light stimulates cellular activity and blood circulation in the scalp and hair follicles, which helps nourish and repair the hair.

Red light therapy cap has been proven by multiple studies to increase hair density, thickness, and strength, as well as reduce hair shedding and inflammation. It works by:

  • Increasing the production of ATP, the energy molecule of cells
  • Increasing the blood flow and oxygen delivery to the scalp and hair follicles
  • Increasing the expression of growth factors and stem cells
  • Decreasing the expression of inflammatory cytokines and DHT

Red light therapy cap is a safe, painless, and non-invasive treatment that you can do at home. You can use it for 15 to 30 minutes a day, depending on the intensity of the light and your personal preference.

How Red Light Therapy Cap Changed My Life

I was intrigued by the idea of red light therapy cap. I did some research online and found many positive reviews from people who had used it for hair growth. I decided to give it a try.

I ordered a red light therapy cap online and started using it every day along with my vitamin supplements. I also made some changes to my diet and lifestyle to improve my overall health.

After a few weeks of using red light therapy cap, I noticed some improvements in my hair. It felt softer, smoother, and shinier. It also looked fuller and thicker.

After a few months of using red light therapy cap, I was amazed by the results. My hair had grown back significantly. It was longer, stronger, and healthier than ever before.

I was so happy with my new hair. I felt more confident and beautiful. I received many compliments from my friends and family.

I still use red light therapy cap regularly to maintain my hair health. I also continue to take my vitamin supplements and eat a balanced diet. I have not experienced any side effects or complications from red light therapy cap.

The Twist

You may think that this is the end of my story, but it is not.

There is one more thing that I have to tell you.

Something that I have not told anyone before.

Something that will shock you.

Are you ready?

Here it is:

I am not a woman.

I am a man.

Yes, you read that right.

I am a man who suffered from hair loss and found a natural and effective solution that changed my life.

I know what you are thinking.

How is that possible?

Why did I lie to you?

What is the point of this story?

Let me explain.

I lied to you because I wanted to make a point.

A point that hair loss can affect anyone, regardless of gender, age, or background.

A point that hair loss can have a profound impact on one’s self-esteem, confidence, and happiness.

A point that hair loss can be prevented and treated with natural and effective solutions, such as vitamin supplements and red light therapy cap.

I hope that by sharing my story, I have inspired you to take action if you are suffering from hair loss or know someone who is.

I hope that by sharing my story, I have challenged your assumptions and stereotypes about hair loss and who it affects.

I hope that by sharing my story, I have made you think differently about hair loss and how to deal with it.
