What Causes Men’s Hair Loss?

If you’re a man facing hair loss, you are definitely not alone. By the age of 50, 85% of American men will experience some degree of hair loss. A quarter of those will actually begin the balding process before the age of 21. But while men’s hair loss is common, that doesn’t make it any easier.

The most prevalent cause of men’s hair loss is a condition called male pattern baldness, or androgenetic alopecia. Though other causes like disease, medicine, and trauma can cause thinning and hair loss, most men can blame genetics for their receding hairlines.

Men's Hair Loss Causes

Androgenetic Alopecia

In Androgenic Alopecia, the male hormone testosterone is converted to dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone that causes hair follicles to go through a process of miniaturization. Over time, the individual hair shafts become shorter and finer, and they lose their pigmentation. The hair follicles eventually die off, resulting in areas of baldness. Since the follicles at the crown and hairline are particularly sensitive to the hormone DHT, these areas are typically the first to be affected by male pattern baldness. This is the condition that often results in the familiar “horseshoe” pattern of remaining hair.

Other Causes

Though male pattern baldness causes most hair loss, men can lose their hair to other factors. Stress, thyroid conditions, medical conditions, and some medications can cause balding. During your free consultation at Coastal Concepts, we will not only discuss solutions, but also evaluate the reasons for your hair loss. Once we know the cause, we will be better able to determine the replacement option that’s right for you.

If you’re losing your hair, the time to act is now. Hair loss is progressive and will not stop on its own.

Men’s Hair Loss Solutions

Many people surf the net and come into the office requesting lace, or polyurethane, or whatever they think is the best solution for men’s hair loss. At Coastal Concepts we want you to understand, it really depends on your individual situation.  It depends on your hair, how you want your hair to look, and what your daily routine looks like.  These things DO, matter.  Lace is great, but it’s not for everyone.  Poly works great for so many people, but it’s not for everyone.  Sometimes it’s best to go with a combination of both.  Successful hair replacement systems depend on each individual and their personal circumstances and lifestyle. This business is very customized, and we listen to our clients to determine the best plan for each individual person. 

 If you are someone that is currently a client at another studio, and you are happy with what you have – great! We can duplicate your existing hair system. If you are a brand-new client that needs direction with options, we will help you. Give us a call and schedule an appointment.
