The Benefits of Shaving Your Head

As men get older, they seem to spend more and more time thinking about hair loss. When men start to get thinning hair, they can work hard to keep it a secret. Hats are utilized more often when they are not at work and they may be trying all different kinds of hair thickening and hair loss products. However, when they look in the mirror, they realize the hair thinning is not stopping and it’s only a matter of time before they are completely bald.

Obsession on trying to stop hair loss can happen for some men and they may be spending a lot of money on different products to avoid further hair loss. It’s important to remember that you are not alone if you are suffering from hair loss! 25% of men will have hair loss by the time they are 30 and 60% will have hair loss in their 60s.

There is no need to be embarrassed by hair loss and men should actually consider embracing it. Shaving your head just might be a good solution for you, especially if you are considering getting Scalp Micropigmentation, which works best for patients who have a closely-shaven scalp. Scalp Micropigmentation is a medical hairline tattoo that is a great hair loss solution for men who are completely bald.

The thought of shaving your head can be scary and you may be worried about what other will think of you. Since hair loss is a progressive condition, many think it is better to just let the hair loss happen gradually, but some brave men decide to take the plunge and shave it all off. People are going to notice, but probably not in the way you would expect. You will probably notice men staring at your newly bald head, but it is most likely because they are dealing with hair loss too and you are giving them the confidence to follow suit. A shaved head can actually restore your self-confidence and make you happy with your appearance, since you no longer have the worry of hiding your thinning hair.

You will also be giving yourself the gift of time if you shave your head. You no longer have to spend so much time every day applying hair thickening products and trying to find new remedies. You no longer are spending time going to the store or spending time researching the ingredients and trying to find the best products. The gift of time is truly a great gift and you no longer need to waste any time fighting your hair loss.

Money will go right back into your pocket if you shave your head, because you are no longer dishing it out on hair loss shampoos, gels, lotions and topical solutions. You no longer are going to the doctor to get your prescription for Propecia. You no longer are buying new hats to wear on the weekends to cover your thinning hair. The only cost of shaving your head is the cost of a razor and a little foam.

If you are experiencing some thinning hair or balding and you would like to learn more about scalp micro-pigmentation, you can contact the experienced hair loss physician, Dr. Yates. He will be able to determine what is causing your hair loss and will let you know what your options are for treatment.
