Senior Member TorontoMan Posted May 11, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted May 11, 2021 Hi, it is most likely not from hair straightening, unless of course you are physically burning your hair while doing it. You are, like most of us on here, likley experiencing "male pattern baldness". Your first step is to google what that is and try to understand the condition. Take a look at your immediate family members, does your father experience hair loss? Any grandparents, uncles, siblings ? If there is hair loss in your family, it is a good indication that you have male pattern baldness and your hair is miniaturizing. Your other option is to see a doctor or dermatologist or someone who specializes in hair to have a look at your situation. You need to take time to research, you're at the beginning of this journey.

Senior Member deeznuts Posted May 12, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted May 12, 2021 Heat does damage your hair. Hard to say without knowing anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heat straightening is really bad for the overall health of hair. Which sucks, bc my transplant hair has grown in curly (my native hair is straight), and I would totally do brazilian blowouts and other heat straightening, if not for the damaging effects. So I am stuck with using gel when i want to look really good. Which is fine and I have accepted it, but kind of annoying to add it to my morning routine.

Senior Member Homeerestre Posted May 13, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted May 13, 2021 (edited) Why not use minoxidil? It will help you bring back your thick hair, it's sold under differing brand names. Edited May 13, 2021 by Homeerestre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
