I’m 50, have a few grey hairs and some thinning at the crown of my head. I’ve maintained my current hair thickness for about the last 17years with little change. I can tell you from my life experience that chronic stress caused my hair to fall out in my early 30’s. At 30, I had collar length, thick hair with zero grey. I got promoted to a higher paying high stress job and by 32, I’d lost the hair on the top of my head and started to grey. I quit that job and learned how to balance my work/life better to mitigate stress, and my hair loss completely stopped. I started to think that if stress did that to my scalp, what else was it doing that I couldn’t see yet? Number one rule: Your health is all you really have to lose in life. Don’t sell it to anyone for any price. Number two rule: If you have an opportunity to ‘de-stress’ in a healthy manner, even if temporarily (music/sauna/emotional expression/massage/walk/pet animal/sleep/friendship etc) take it ASAP. Best of luck to you.👍🙏

You forgot the most important factor: Copper metabolism.. increasing ceruloplasmin production to help copper metabolism. Everybody overdo zinc... which makes copper levels go down. Just do a hair tissue mineral analysis with Morley Robbins to know your mineral status.. Best thing I've ever done.

I am 41 & went through an unwanted divorce 3 years ago and I was losing clumps of hair when showering. I recently just started to regrow and have significantly less shedding/grey. I really related this to excessive stress during that season to now.

I've been doing all of that you mentioned and more. Been a PT for over 10 years, live a very active, well balanced lifestyle. I don't drink. I don't smoke. I strength train 3-4x a week & engage in Muay Thai 3x a week. Still losing it at 37. I believe my case is genetics and there's no help for it . Fkkd up

The most effective thing to keep the hair follicles from dying is to rid them of DHT, which will choke out the follicles and kill them. Best way, topical polysorbate 80, an emulsifier that will rid the follicle of the waxy sebum that no shampoo can do, which gets rid of the DHT as well. This is not new, it was called the Helsinki formula back in the 80s. it is under appreciated because people are more interested in' growing' hair, than 'keeping' the hair they have. You can get polysorbate 80 from Bulk Apothecary, etc.

I embraced my grey hair, along with the aging process. I'm not so keen about the soft, wrinkled chicken skin on my arms, but I do feel great at 67 so no complaints.

I moved onto a variety of supplements, started fasting regularly and so on. What grey hair I had went away and has completely gone.

Thank you for your intelliegent and thoughtful explanations of hair loss, and much more. Kudos! Let me add, the way you appoach your subject is really appreciated,

Well done - fantastic comprehensive breakdown 👍

I have no problem growing hair. My back hair is thicker than a 70's shag carpet. 💪

You are THE BEST!!! Greatly appreciate all you put out, Mike!!!!

Prp reverses gray. Especially if started early. Glynac also helps with maintaining high glutathione levels. Glycine consumption is also recommended.

First of all, I like to wish you a Happy Birthday, Mate. Secondly, your content is always on cue. Thirdly, the pandemic cause so much stress in my life that I lost a ton of hair, but somehow it's gradually grown back. . I'm 60 years old this year, so it's expected that thinning out is inevitable

Genetic component is also a huge factor. My hair is basically the same at 61 as at 20. (Not quite as red) Hopefully it will continue

I started greying at 18. I’m now 53 and retired. Got bored so now do acting. Non verbal all background work as an older grey haired primarily in movies and done commercials. It’s fun. Thanks to my grey hair.

That was an amazingly dense podcast. Thank you!

*FASTING* gives you *ALL* these benefits. I've been fasting for 6 months (IF, OMAD, 2MAD, and some 3-day fasts). I'm 51 and have noticed my grey disappearing! *LADIES,* get Dr. Mindy Pelz's book, "Fast Like a Girl," it's *AWESOME.* I just finished it and am about to read it again.

👍 sun damage of hair ! I didn’t know and I have lived for sunny days ! But I will buy a hat and tell my family . Thanks for the easy info to digest .

40 year old woman. Needling my scalp with a 0.5mm roller once or twice a week is helping my hair regrow. I wasn't compliant with a 1mm stamp, it hurts too much. Also diet/lifestyle to manage insulin resistance and balance high T to E/P ratio has helped the male pattern baldness along with the roller.

So empowering to know.. Always learning that healthy eating, TRE & regular, consistent exercise is a win, win, win (win)

I needed this video 15 years ago lol I started greying in my late 20s.

I have news for you younger viewers ( I'm 69) about hair greying and/or falling out. None of it matters. None of it is worth worrying about or spending money on. Ever. All that does matter is maintaining health for a long healthspan. Leave the vanity/appearance issues to the young and dumb.

My mom was completely grey and my dad had very thin hair by the time they were my age. I noticed both when I turned 60. I began taking my health, diet and lifestyle seriously, and at 69, my hair is darker and thicker than it’s been in many years!

Great content overall. Really appreciate all of your videos. I went carnivore about 5 months ago. Hair got thicker, denser and reversed gray hair. In my opinion its related to minimized systemic inflamation. I do cardio 3-4 times a week.Strength train 4 times a week. Works for me!

This is a very interesting topic. Thank you for some solutions. Fortunately, so far, I have not yet reached colorless grey. I agree with some of your preventatives, like preventing insulin resistence, and wearing a hat. It may help to eat good food that has natural pigments like green and red vegetables. Thanks.

Very informative! I started greying at 17 and now at almost 39, it's mostly around the bang area.. some scattered throughout. My mom's hair was 50% grey by 38. I noticed every single one of my grey strands was dark brown/black at the root after consuming lots of baked potatoes. Once I stopped, my new growth was grey. I tried it again a few months later (eating lots of baked potatoes) and the root was dark brown/black once again. I couldn't find any studies on grey hair reversal and potatoes... so, I was shocked that something as simple as eating a root vegetable was enough for melanin production.... in my case. As for my hair loss, it was always due to a nutritional deficiency from extreme dieting for long periods, Senna tea, and Covid. It took anywhere from 1 yr to 3 yrs for the massive shedding to stop... depending on the cause. Eating enough fruit, veggies, and legumes.. along with diluted Braggs apple cider vinegar scalp rinses, water/dry fasting (sometimes once or twice a week.. sometimes twice a month), and drinking a gallon of water daily helped dramatically. I also include a brazil nut daily.

As a 55 year old with no grey hair, this is interesting information! I thought my high cholesterol carnivore diet would have caused my hair to fall out by now!

So helpful. Thank you😊

incredible work

I've always had a hairline that looks like it's receding but it's never changed much. My maternal grandfather died with a full head of gray hair in the pattern I have. I did begin graying around 40. The graying could have been associated with degenerative disc disease, I guess. I did treat that with edibles and vapor. Since going keto, my inflammation improved wildly. Can't say there's been any un-graying of my hair. My skin is wildly better, though. I'd say I don't appear to have aged much in the past five years, except maybe the graying has continued.

My mom had almost no grey hair when she died at age 83 (Ukrainian) but my dad had grey hair in his 30's (English). So I'm hoping I am more on my mom's side. In my late 40s I have almost no grey hair.

Nice. Natural bio identical progesterone can be exactly what a man with MPB needs too, and not just women. Great video.

Switching to non toxic shampoo n conditioner really helped my hair loss.

Great advice

Thanks for the informative video. One thing I’ve been curious about is scalp fibroses/hardening of the scalp in balding/bald men. I suspect there is a connection between scalp tension and the “stress” triggers discussed in the video (inflammation, diet, bpa exposure, excess sun, etc.). Im in the sun a lot too, but I wonder if a person can be okay in the sun as long as they have good adaption and don’t get burnt.

Ive been supplementing with methylfolate daily the past two years, and in spite of an autoimmune disease and cancer, my hair is super thick and my nails very strong - better than ever! 🙂

From age 45 to 59 my hair gareyed and fell out. From thick lush to thin mousy. Hairdressers asked if i had chemo, covid.... But changed diet bc everything else seemed to be aging at astronomical rate. Couldn't reduce stress yet, family related, as well as this crazy last few years, but i did eliminate seed pils, and ear nearly alll fruits veggies nuts, seeds, and my hens eggs, fish. My gray nearly gone, and a thick hair growing. Still trying to fix what i thinl was mitochondrial damage, but hair definitely refectiin of feeling and getting better. And honestly knowing animals not farmed is huge plus.

Rob English is a hair expert who explained hair loss is often related to skin tightening on the head and usually not excessive dht or testosterone. As we age testosterone is lower nut higher and many men grow beards and hairy chests while simultaneously losing head hair. He explains scalp massage. I use a high percussion sports massager and topically zinc and vitamin A and Aloe Vera. Copper citrate helps prevent graying plus the enzyme catalace. Topically zinc and copper and A plus aloe vera and occasionally DMAE and niacin with a flush. Rob English has a website and a video on What I've Learned channel

Good video thank you

This video is on point. I (26M) went bald at 22. I was an extremely skinny gamer and had lots of stress. Maybe if I start eating a lot, work out and go out I'll regain some hair?

So for most of the videos I watch on KZfaq I need to listen on 1.25x playback speed. The tempo of this channel is perfect, direct, concise, not biased. Please, you do you, do not artificially change your speed.

Two things which have helped my hair grow: --1 -2 minute handstands, basically this is the INVERSION method of hair growth and it gets blood back into the head more efficiently than anything -- boiling rosemary and mint in WATER for 20 minutes with lid on the pan then 20 minutes simmering with lid off to make an infusion of the herbs. Keep in a spray bottle in the fridge for a week at a time to massage onto thinning parts of the scalp twice a day. Spray and massage the infusion to encourage blood flow and nutrients to the scalp while reducing inflammation by gentle removal of dirt/oil/sebum/dust from parts of the scalp.

If a person has grey hair as well as vitiligo, will these measures improve both conditions? TIA!

Well happy early birthday haha today is my birthday and I'm still in my early thirties and I always joke that I still feel like I'm 19 except I'm stronger faster and more resilient

Does baldness relates to aging or is it just a genetical thing? Thanks!

Could you do a video on strategies to sleep better PLEASE? Thank you so much.

I started greying in my early 20s, i'm now 32 and my hair 60% white, i have a lot of hair and 0 hair loss though. I'm really not sure what's up with that

I'm thinning at 30, feels bad man. Thanks Mike!

One of the strategies I think works well is needling followed by red light therapy. I do it ever few weeks and does look to keep the thinning at bay. On the grey front I've yet to find something that works😊

my hairs black an i got fade ,every grey sticks out, im starting to notice alot them poppin up, im 33 an im black, this shit getting crazy, i still got my hairline, its just greys are poppin up more, but i think datz normal for my age tho looool

Very interesting. Wondering if photobiomodulation may be helpful. *It's follicle (icle-like pickle)...not folicule-like molecule

Growing up I had so much hair, there wasn’t a spot to be he had, everyone would always compliment me on it and tell me I would never go bald. Starting around 30 I began to grey, didn’t bother me just started to dye it. Got married when I turned 39 had my first kid at 41.. and then it started. Looking back at pictures you can see it, I didn’t notice until I turned 44, my hair is receding I just turned 49 it sucks but I just tell my self I had a better run then half the men in America.

The best ways for Collagen is just supplements? He mentions that Collagen can help but didn't see mention on the best ways to get Collagen in. I quick look says you get it mostly from fish, poultry, meat, eggs, dairy, legumes, and soy and they help promote your body to produce more Collagen, is this the best way? Or do supplements work too?

What shampoo do you use for daily use?

Excellent information! And yes, start with getting the health of your system back. Epigenetics is the concept here, environment dictates gene expression. Want to have better gene expression? Change the environment in a positive way. Cheers

If men have high DHT and experience male pattern baldness then Finasteride or Dutasteride hands down are the solution to slowing down or even reversing hair loss. Nizoral shampoos are weak adjunt treatments.

Besides hair loss and gray hair I’ve been dealing with Idiopathic guttate hypomelanosis. I believe they are related. I’ve been focusing on melatonin production since it is at the beginning of the pathway of production of melanin. Insomnia has been an issue for me the past decade but ive been working on it.

after my mom passed away ..even in young late 20s I had grey hair but with less stress and more b12 there is more control and reversing of grey

Anyone have any idea about what to do for a greying beard. My hair is pretty thick and dark but my beard has rapidly gone grey. I have no mental stress but i have lost 10lbs in the past year which seems to correlate with this greying due to some digestive issues. I also get a ton of sun and have very high vit D levels bc of that. I wonder if that can also cause beards to go grey.

Probably genetics. I am 41 and still have no gray hair. But talking about hair loss, I started to loose some as I age, and then I started to watch some videos about washing hair less frequently. I am washing my hair now only once a month for over a year and my hair has never been better. I also don’t have split ends

Melanotan 2 converts my grey hair in my beard back to colour almost instantly

Yeah it's a correlation i'm 50 years old no wrinkles at all but i got white hair since i was born ( 5 hairs when i was born) the temple area and the laterals of the beard are white since 35 years old(strange thjey are like this for the last 15 years). My point is that you can't beat genethics !

15:56 - is that all hysterectomies or just those considered “full” which include removal of both ovaries?

So I have no gray hair my hair strands are so thick but just two weeks ago had a change in scalp seemed like dandruff but washed and does not go away but all out of no were clumps of my hair has fallen out used coconut oil to get rid of dandruff but scalp is red and tender. worst 2 weeks of my life this is such a nightmare.

May I ask, does Deanna still do carnivore?

Use the holy trinity to deal with hair loss: 1) Finasteride 2) Minoxidil 3) Derma pen or derma rolling. This is from personal and anecdotal experience

What about NMN? It was billed as the miracle pill

Curious how HBOT treatment would work in addition to healthy life styles.

If UV stresses the hair bulb, then does that mean a UV sauna makes you bald?

What about Reynards disease? I’ve never been able to go into a cold plunge because of that, but I’m wondering if the transition between cold plunge and sauna would help regulate Renaud’s and therefore hair loss. Thank you.

Does excessive turkey choking effect hair loss?

Do you have some tips with regards to erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation? Thanks

Which chemicals in shampoos are bad??

Rob English also explained how botox sometimes increased hair growth. Reduce stress with scalp massage Dr Berg recent video explains enzyme catalace and copper help prevent graying hair reducing peroxide. Liver is good source for both copper and catalace. Glutathione also reduces peroxide. Massage with zinc and copper and A and niacin and DHEA and Aloe Vera and occasionally with DMAE. Consume hydrolyzed collagen.

My old neughbor had a grapefruit tree. I had access to unlimited free grapefruit. I ate so many, juiced some for the entire season. Noticed my hair, nails and skin get healthier. Was it the vitamin c??

Anyone else notice that Mike possibly dyed his hair for this episode? I like Mike and he gives good advice but sometimes between the myoxicence ads and stuff like this, it causes me the think. Personally I'd feel more confident in my source of information if there wasn't self promotion involved.

Just for Men darkening shampoo, couple times a week! Sometimes you just can’t change genetics.

dr. wallach says grey hair is due to copper deficiency.

Any thoughts on the older study of premature greying link to heart disease?

Which hormones are recommended by research? I heard recently on another podcast that bioidentical hormones and those derived from “natural” ingredients (ie yams) are still plant-based (ie derived of sterols) and still problematic. They recommended getting enough dietary fat so the body can produce it’s own hormones. Thoughts?

I lost tons of hairs on Carnivore, yes I was eating enough protein (3lbs a day) and minerals, carnivore for 6 months... I reverted back to omnivore and now im on minox and fina, hope I can undo the damage

My hair was super thick and curly 8 years ago. I had to use thinning shears to make my hair straighten out. I stsrted smoking and drinking coffee around then and since my hairline receded pretty far and has thinned out pretty badly. Don't do drugs guys

I don’t know if you’re already talked about facial hair on woman. What’s causing it and how to treat and prevent it

Just rock it!

Whats the alternative to drinking from plastic bottles and the water from my kitchen has a funny taste to it. Thanks

What can I do I have had muscle loss in a year this year 2023. Sparse hair in my eyebrows n spare tire n little more fat on my tummy n fat on my calves and arms my hair is turning a little grey. Please any tips? I take bio hormones.

Ladies, sunflower seeds are great for progesterone. Super easy snack

so what can we do to reverse grey hair in the 30s

Have you heard about creatine causing hair loss? I was reading about it on some forums

What about the use of tretinoin ?

I started getting grey at 33 too. I'm 35 now still at my temples atleast. Hair is thinning kind of though.

I've always worn a hat outside (I'm 51, and I am outside for hours daily), and I have zero grey hair on my head, but my beard is nearly completely white. Interesting.

I have a theory that hats may decrease circulation to the top of the scalp. Seems many people who wear ball caps are balding. It would be interesting to study people with a thick full head of hair in later years. What lifestyle practices do they have in common to keep those thick locks.

Shampooing your hair everyday is bad. I shampoo my hair every other day only and i mixed it with water.Drinking lot's of water would help too.

What about when someone is 39 or 40 and up isn't that around the age when grey hair starts to happen no matter what you do? Isn't gray hair just another part of the aging disease that there's nothing you can do about it? Or can it really be cured past age 40?

I notice every time I highlight or get a balayage, my hair will shed like crazy and a lot of hair falls out. The chemicals are so bad so I had to stop highlighting my hair. I still have a head full of thick hair thankfully but I learned my lesson.

Dr my son is 21.he has thinning of the hair. It looks like 50% hair thinning. He goes to the gym 4x week. He studies and works. What is going on with him?
