No matter your age, maintaining a good head of hair is something important. But the reality is that millions of men in the UK experience some form of male pattern hair loss every year. Primarily a genetic condition, male pattern hair loss affects the growth, health, and strength of your hair and can ultimately result in baldness. However, there are several steps you can take to combat this condition and here are some of our top tips to help you maintain healthy hair growth in 2024.
Limit your bad habits
Although male pattern hair loss is primarily caused by genetics, your lifestyle choices can also have an impact on the health of your hair. Smoking and drinking excessive alcohol, for instance, is bad for your hair, as is experiencing highly stressful scenarios. So, our first tip is to work on your lifestyle choices and limit your bad habits wherever possible. Taking these steps can improve the health of your hair, as well as your general health and well-being.
Consider your treatment options
If you haven’t done so already, 2024 is the perfect time to consider your hair loss treatment options. Finasteride and Minoxidil are the only two medications that have been clinically proven to treat male pattern hair loss, and they represent your best possible chance of improving your hair growth. You can use both medications at the same time as they work in conjunction with one another.
Be consistent
Once you’ve decided on the best hair loss treatment for you, consistency is key. Skipping days here and there will have a negative impact on the treatment’s effectiveness, so you need to be disciplined and considerate with your routine. In the first few weeks, it might be difficult to remember to take your hair loss medication, so incorporating it into your existing daily routine is helpful. Thereafter, it will become second nature, and you shouldn’t have any problems with remembering to take your medication.
Look at hair growth supplements and products
Another great way to maintain your hair growth this year is to enhance your haircare routine with some tried and tested supplements. One of the best options is Biotin, also known as vitamin B7. Biotin is fundamental in the production of keratin, a protein that the human body needs for hair growth. A Biotin supplement can be taken daily and is an excellent way to boost the health and strength of your hair. You might also consider combining Biotin with our DHT-blocking shampoo, which complements Finasteride and helps to remove the prevalence of DHT from your scalp.
