Reverse your Receding Hairline and Cover the Bald Patch

Posted by Sam Lee Harrison on

It is no secret that most men, if not all, continuously lose hair as they get older. If a man is lucky, the hair loss he experiences would hardly be noticeable. But unfortunately, there are those unlucky enough to experience symptoms that are very apparent. And there are those even unluckier people who experience this at an age where people are expected to still have a healthy head of hair. Having a receding hairline at any point in any one’s life can be a stressful situation.

What is common and predictable about male balding is that the loss of hair progresses in distinguishable pattern. There are actually three major scalp areas where hair loss can be most expected, and the amount of hair loss experienced in each area will most likely determine the variation in the pattern in which hair loss would progress. The three major scalp areas for hair loss are:

  1. Temple

The anterior hairline is where hair loss in the temple starts, and it then moves backwards. To some extent, all boys experience this somewhere in between their adolescence and adulthood. Usually, there is only a mild hair loss experienced in this area. However, some men experience obvious bitemporal recession, and this can eventually lead to hair loss in other parts of the scalp through the years.


  1. Crown

The whorl, or the back of the head is where hair loss on the crown starts. It then spreads outwards in different directions and causes baldness that is circular.


  1. Mid-frontal scalp

The mid-frontal scalp, or the top of the head, usually starts experiencing general diffuse thinning through the widening of the central part-line. This pattern is the one that is commonly experienced by Asian men. It is also the hair loss pattern that around 75% of women experience as they get older.


Causes of Receding Hairline

            Whatever the pattern of hair loss is, one thing is for sure. Having a receding hairline is not an experience that people would look forward to. There are a certain reasons for hair loss, such as:


  1. Age

Grandpas in animated shows are often depicted as having balding head of white hair. This of course does not happen without a backstory. One of the most common causes of a receding hairline is age. According to the National Institutes of Health, as people get older, they experience hair thinning. So, it’s not really much of a shocker for people’s hairlines to recede as they age. For 25 percent of men, this can start as early as the age of 30. And by the age of 60, around 66 percent of men already have a balding pattern, or are already experiencing baldness.



  1. Genetic Factors


Yes, some people who experience hair loss can blame their discomfort on their dad or mom. One of the factors that cause hairline to recede is heredity or genes. This is when a person has inherited a trait from his parents that causes a receding hairline. According to The American Hair Loss Association, heredity is the cause that most male balding can be associated to. The scalp’s follicles, those on the lateral sides of the forehead especially, are sensitive to dihydrotestosterone or DHT. DHT can cause a receding hairline. If a person is genetically sensitive to DHT, he would probably experience a receding hairline earlier than most.


  1. Testosterone

Dihydrotestosterone is an androgen that has evolved from the Testosterone. When testosterone is exposed to the enzyme 5-alpha-reductase, it converts to DHT. The binding of the DHT to the genetically predisposed hair follicles would result to eventual hair loss. Having healthy levels of testosterone on the other hand, helps prevent baldness, or addresses the receding hairline. Testosterone is an important hormone which performs several functions in the body, including production of hair. Men with low levels of testosterone may experience hair loss.


Herbs that will Cure Hair Loss

`           Sure, there are hair implants that can address a receding hairline, but herbs are still the cheapest and easiest way to regrow the hair. Here are herbs that help with hair loss:

  1. Aloe Vera


Aloe Vera can be considered as a remedy for hair loss because it is helpful in repairing the body’s epithelial surfaces. The lining of the digestive tract, as well as the lining of the skin are considered as epithelial surfaces. Aloe Vera has the ability to speed up the healing process by 30% when applied to a burn or a wound. The logic behind Aloe Vera as a treatment for hair loss lies in the fact that hair grows from within the skin. The substances that possibly enable Aloe Vera to speed up healing are Salicylic acid, serine carboxypeptidase, and other ingredients that provide vitamins, minerals, and amino acids.



  1. Basil, Lavender, and Rosemary

These three herbs have the ability to boost blood flow to the roots of the hair, and their ability to do this is what makes them effective remedies to hair loss. They would need to be applied topically on the scalp. However, topical application has to be every day in order to achieve noticeable results.


  1. Tongkat Ali


One of the most effective herbs for addressing a receding hairline is the Tongkat Ali, or scientifically known as the Eurycoma Longifolia. This herb is a native of Southeast Asian Countries such as Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, and Vietnam. The Tongkat Ali’s effectiveness in promoting hair growth and preventing baldness lies in its ability to increase the testosterone levels in the body. As mentioned in the causes for hair loss earlier, low testosterone in men can result in a receding hairline, even at an early age. There are other methods for increasing testosterone level in the body such as Testosterone Replacement Therapy, but supplementation with Tongkat Ali is considered to be safer, cheaper, more accessible, and yet very effective.


Having a receding hairline, no matter what pattern it is, can prove to be a stressful experience. There are various causes for this, including age, genetics, and testosterone levels. Fortunately, there are treatment options that can save a person from baldness. And even more fortunately, some of these treatment options are in the form of herbs. With the ease of access to these supplemental herbs, people wouldn’t have to suffer from a receding hairline anymore.
