Do bald people wash their head with shampoo or soap? Are there any bald people who can answer this or does anyone have a theory? [?]
Shampoo and soap are two different types of cleansing agents. Shampoo is specifically formulated for the hair and scalp, while soap is meant for general cleaning of the body. Shampoo contains ingredients that help to nourish and strengthen the hair, while soap may strip the hair of its natural oils and cause dryness.
There is no scientific evidence to suggest that using shampoo or soap can prevent or reverse baldness. Baldness is primarily caused by genetics and hormone levels, not by the type of cleansing agent used. However, using a shampoo that is specifically designed for thinning hair may help to improve the overall health of the scalp and hair.
Some shampoos may contain ingredients such as biotin, saw palmetto, or caffeine, which are thought to promote hair growth. However, there is limited research on the effectiveness of these ingredients in treating baldness. It is important to consult with a dermatologist for personalized recommendations.
Using the wrong type of shampoo or soap may not necessarily worsen baldness, but it can lead to other issues such as dryness, irritation, and breakage of the hair. It is important to choose a gentle shampoo that is suitable for your hair type and to avoid harsh chemicals or fragrances that may cause irritation.
There are several alternative treatments for baldness, including medications, laser therapy, and hair transplant surgery. It is best to consult with a dermatologist or hair specialist to determine the most suitable treatment option for your individual needs.
