			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The biggest questions for men that are losing hair are: Why me and should I just remove all of my hair or not? Let me give you some solid advice about this problem. Here are some common answers of the good and bad of shaving your hair off.</p>
<p>The good points: 1. Shaving your head can give the image that you are young 2. For the most part it looks much better than a greasy hair style 3. It can improve your manly stature</p>
<p>Here is what came out as being bad: 1. Even if you have a great shave, people will still notice that you are losing hair 2. Bald people with odd shaped heads look funny 3. You will spend a lot of time shaving to keep it looking nice</p>
<p>But remember, shaving your head is not for everyone. Suppose you have major skin problems on your scalp, or a really skinny neck, the look might not work for you. There are no hard and fast rules though. Often, the only way to figure out if a shaved head will look good on you is to do it. One way to help you decide is to gradually get your hair cut shorter, until it is eventually shaved. If it&#8217;s not a good look, it will become obvious to you during the process (or maybe to others like friends and family who will hopefully let you know nicely!).</p>
<p>Another bonus is that if the look isn&#8217;t going to be a winner, you&#8217;ll find out while you still have some length on it so that re-growing won&#8217;t take as much time. A word of caution: don&#8217;t make this process too gradual because if it&#8217;s a bad look it may not be obvious to you and those who already know you, but it will be very noticeable to someone who has never met you before (such as a job interviewer or a future girlfriend&#8230;.!).</p>
<p>The best thing to do is to make sure that it is something that you like and not what everyone else thinks. You don&#8217;t have to worry too much because most men who shave their heads bald end up looking good and most love it.</p>
<p>For an awesome shave, check out the <a href="http://www.razorbrands.net/Schick-Quattro-Titanium.html">Schick Quattro Titanium</a> or the <a href="http://www.razorbrands.net/Schick-Quattro-For-Women.html">Schick Quattro For Women</a> for an simple shave.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Losing hair faster than your friends can be tough but there is an important question: Should I completely remove all of my hair or do I keep it?

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Losing hair faster than your friends can be tough but there is an important question: Should I completely remove all of my hair or do I keep it? I have some advice for this problem. I have a survey that included the good and bad from guys who shave their heads often.</p>
<p>The major benefits are: 1. Looking your age instead of older 2. It usually looks better than the easy alternatives (leaving hair as is, a comb over, or hats) 3. It makes you appear confident by not hiding anything.</p>
<p>The downsides are: 1. Others can clearly see you are balding (no matter how good you think your shaving technique is!) 2. It won&#8217;t look great if you don&#8217;t have a well shaped head 3. You will have to spend time shaving to keep up the style.</p>
<p>However, shaving isn&#8217;t for all of us. In fact, many people who have scalp issues or a small neck usually decide not to do it. But of course there aren&#8217;t any specific rules. The best way to figure it out is to actually do it and see what you look like. But doing it all at once may be a bad choice so you may want to cut your hair shorter slowly. You should be able to see whether or not if being bald is going to suit you or not.</p>
<p>One great thing about cutting it shorter is that you will be able to keep some hair on your head in case it is a bad idea. But I have some advice: don&#8217;t cut down your hair shorter too slowly because you might not see that it is going to look bad when someone else looks at you rather than you looking in the mirror all of the time.</p>
<p>The bottom line is, you need to do whatever makes you look best and not what your neighbor or the guy at the gym thinks. The good news for those who are planning on taking the plunge is that the vast majority of men who have tried head shaving say that the look suits them and they&#8217;re glad they did it.</p>
<p>For an great shave, check out the <a href="http://www.razorbrands.net/Schick-Quattro-Titanium.html">Schick Quattro Titanium</a> or the <a href="http://www.razorbrands.net/Schick-Quattro-For-Women.html">Schick Quattro For Women</a> for an simple shave.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The basic principles of getting the best shave is in these five must have shaving items. Keeping a stock of them gives you a reward. Whatever type of skin you have, surely, you will acknowledge the use of the following:</p>
<p>1.	Shaving brush makes the act easily by making the shaving cream lather on the face and keeps away the hairs from sticking into the skin. These then facilitates the blade to cut the hair the way you want it to be. The materials used for this shaving brush came from animal hair but some are made artificially. Silicone brush is what I prefer to use on my own shaving because it does not cause me skin damages and it works well in setting my hair that is to be shaved.</p>
<p>2.	In the older days we used a glycerin soap lathered up. This is still very common with people who use straight razors. However, using regular soap and water will not provide a slippery face for the razor to glide across. If you have sensitive skin then you will have to be more particular to the type of shaving cream that you are using. Sensitive skin will flare up quickly and burn during and after your shave.</p>
<p>3.	Various kinds of razors and shavers are now available. You may prefer to choose a shaver that uses electricity or a common wet razor, which is depending on your likes. For me, I prefer to use the straight razor because it makes the closest shave I want compared to the work of the electric shaver. In both kinds of blades, remember to be cautious all the time and make sure to prevent any skin causing problems.</p>
<p>4.	Majority of men have a wrong notion about applying facial moisturizers. However, note that during shaving, deep seated dirt as well as oils are being cleaned, leaving the skin to dry out immediately. Moisturizing may somehow prevent occurrence of skin damages.</p>
<p>5.	An added essential shaving item is water. To help have a thoroughly cleaned skin, use lukewarm water to open skin pores and frosty water to maintain the blade&#8217;s ability to cut hair efficiently.</p>
<p>For the easiest shave around, you will want to buy <a href="http://www.razorbrands.net/Electric-Razors.html">electric razors</a> or <a href="http://www.razorbrands.net/Electric-Shavers.html">electric shavers</a> for a close shave. Getting rid of hair does not have to be difficult.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Whether male or female, hair loss is a problem in these modern times due high exposure to all things unhealthy for hair such as wrong fastfood diets, financial and career stress, and the overwhelming array of synthetic hair care products available on the market. Aside from this, there may even be traits in an individual that cause progressive hair thinning because it is simply hereditary. Top hair loss causes and some treatment options can be identified in order to relieve some of these issues.</p>
<p>There are two categories of alopecia, or loss of hair which need to be identified correctly in order to be able to move towards possible treatment methods. Hair loss treatment specialists or hair loss experts can easily determine the cause of baldness in an individual before recommending further treatment. It is best to consult with these professionals in order have a full diagnosis of possible causes as well as being given options for treatment.</p>
<p>A temporary version of alopecia is alopecia areata, where the scalp or parts of the body start to lose hair in scattered areas or patches. The causes of this can be hereditary, stress related, or related to the use of commercial synthetic hair care products that have adverse reactions to hair growth. There are also studies being done to connect the immune system to hair loss issues, as this could be an autoimmune disorder that causes the body to attack its own hair growth progression.</p>
<p>The more common case of baldness and where most people seek treatment is when they have androgenic alopecia. This condition is usually related to many scientifically undetermined factors, and the only identified possible causes are stress, hereditary traits, and hormonal imbalance. In women, this disorder may cause simply thinning of the hair in some areas, whereas in men it is clearly defined when the hairline starts to recede at the higher temple areas, progressing onto total baldness at the crown.</p>
<p>Treatment is rare for minor cases of alopecia areata, as the stress factor is the usual suspicion for cause in many subjects. Doctors may also recommend the cessation of use of certain hair care products, as well as a change in lifestyle. Severe cases of this kind are recommended treatments, usually with products containing minoxidil, steroid creams, or steroid based injections.</p>
<p>Stress has also been seen as a cause for increased cases of androgenic alopecia, and cases of baldness increase during times of crisis and other historically traumatic events. Treatments for hair loss in this category are usually with products that contain finasteride, dutasteride, ketoconazole, and minoxidil. The Food and Drug Administration has duly approved minoxidil and finasteride solutions for use on the commercial market for hair loss treatment.</p>
<p>Handheld low level lasers were also approved by the FDA in 2007 for the treatment of androgenic alopecia in its early stages. This is another hair loss treatment option that makes use of modern technological breakthroughs, and is still going through many improvisations and changes up to today.</p>
<p>A major treatment option that is the last alternative for those who have extreme cases of hair loss is undergoing a hair transplant. This option is usually provided for those who have not responded well, if at all, to non-invasive measures for hair regrowth.</p>
<p>The major causes for hair loss, such as stress and lifestyle related habits, can be avoided by many individuals by choice, thereby reducing their chances of losing their hair. However, for those who are starting to show the signs, there are treatments readily available on the market and can resolve several issues depending upon individual cases. It is best to see a professional in order to get the right diagnosis, as well as receive proper advice on possible treatment options.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The lifestyle that is led by many men and women today is probably the most stressful and commercialized type of lifestyle that poses many threats and after effects to overall health, especially to hair health. The dependence on quick products for hair maintenance, and the unhealthy dietary options can all contribute to possible hair loss or alopecia. As added information, top hair loss cures for alopecia are already available on the market, and are the options available to many depending upon their case.</p>
<p>There are two categories of alopecia, or loss of hair which need to be identified correctly in order to be able to move towards possible treatment methods. Hair loss treatment specialists or hair loss experts can easily determine the cause of baldness in an individual before recommending further treatment. It is best to consult with these professionals in order have a full diagnosis of possible causes as well as being given options for treatment.</p>
<p>One family member of alopecia is alopecia areata, which is a condition wherein the loss of hair is temporary in nature. The head or even some body parts actually lose hair in patches, and the cause is suspected to be hereditary in some individuals. Stress and the use of many hair maintenance products can also contribute to the disruption of the hair growth. There are some studies that are out to confirm suspicions that it may also be caused by a deficiency in the immune system, causing the body to attack hair growth.</p>
<p>The more common case of baldness and where most people seek treatment is when they have androgenic alopecia. This condition is usually related to many scientifically undetermined factors, and the only identified possible causes are stress, hereditary traits, and hormonal imbalance. In women, this disorder may cause simply thinning of the hair in some areas, whereas in men it is clearly defined when the hairline starts to recede at the higher temple areas, progressing onto total baldness at the crown.</p>
<p>In minor cases of alopecia areata, treatment is rarely ever given, although doctors may recommend stopping the use of certain hair products. Severe hair loss cases, however, require treatments with products that contain minoxidil, steroid creams, or even some steroid injections. Keeping in mind that the stress factor may be a cause of hair loss, some doctors may recommend a change in lifestyle in cases where this may be a suspected cause.</p>
<p>When there is global or financial crisis in people&#8217;s lives, this main stress factor has been seen to increase the reports of baldness in general populations, particularly during the aftermath of a highly traumatic situation. Treatments for hair loss in the severe category can be products that have FDA approved substances such as finasteride and minoxidil. There are also other substances such as ketoconazole and dutasteride, but these are not FDA approved, although have shown promising results during treatment usage.</p>
<p>Other hair loss treatment options are the high technology treatments such as the use of low level laser therapy, which is usually effective for patients who are still in the early stages of their hair loss issues. This is a new method that has also been approved by the FDA since a handheld version of the device was introduced in 2007 for treatment of androgenic alopecia.</p>
<p>Surgical hair transplants are also another treatment option for those who are suffering from severe hair loss issues, and have tried all other non-invasive methods to restore their hair. Taking this option is the last on every treatment specialist&#8217;s list, as there may be cases where the hair is still able to grow back naturally on its own.</p>
<p>There are many alternatives for treatment of hair loss today that are effective for many individuals, and are still undergoing many improvements over the passage of time. Successful treatments depend upon an individual&#8217;s overall reaction to the treatment, so it is very essential to have a professional diagnosis and recommendation before trying out any type of products or procedures to restore hair growth.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The biggest questions for men that are losing hair are: Why me and should I just remove all of my hair or not? Let me give you some solid advice about this problem. Here are some common answers of the good and bad of shaving your hair off.</p>
<p>The major benefits are: 1. Looking your age instead of older 2. It usually looks better than the easy alternatives (leaving hair as is, a comb over, or hats) 3. It makes you appear confident by not hiding anything.</p>

<p>Another great thing about hair is that it will grow back pretty quickly. Warning: The key is not to cut your hair shorter too slowly because you will never know the difference, so by doing it faster will be more noticeable for you and the people around you (this is especially important if you are dating someone new).</p>
<p>All in all, you need to figure out what style suits you and now what everybody else around you thinks. The best piece of reassurance I give you is that most of the guys who shave their heads really end up liking their new look.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As you age, the more likely you are to start losing some hair. According to the American Hair Loss Association, by the age of 35 more than half of men start to have noticeable hair loss, and by the age of fifty, 85% are likely to have thinning hair. If losing your hair is a concern, then make sure you learn which male hair loss treatment sounds right for you.</p>
<p>There are many myths about what causes men to lose their hair, ranging from stress to wearing hats too often. In fact, androgenic alopecia, commonly called male pattern baldness, is the primary cause of hair loss, and it is based on hormones and heredity. In other words, what you see in the male members of your family is what you are likely to experience. What you have inherited are hair follicles that are sensitive to DHT, a byproduct of testosterone. This hormone causes your hair follicles to shorten and then eventually stop producing hair.</p>
<p>If you desire to keep as much hair as you can for as long as possible, you might want to consider taking action before any loss becomes too obvious. If your genetics seem to indicate that you will have a good head of hair for a long time, then you might choose to wait to begin treatment. Either way, there are multiple treatment options available.</p>
<p>An easy option that you can try at home on your own is an over-the-counter product that you can buy at your local drug store. This includes a shampoo, which some claim is supposed to calm the inflammation of the hormone fluctuations. There is also a well advertised product that you can rub into your hair and scalp. Considered a growth stimulant, it is supposed to help what hair you have left grow. It will not cause hair to grow where it is already gone.</p>
<p>To date, there are only two products that have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of hair loss. The first, and older, drug approved for this purpose can slow your hair loss, but will not create new hair growth since it does not affect DHT. A newer drug works by reducing DHT levels, allowing new hair to grow. This is the first drug to have been proven effective in treating male pattern baldness, with 65% of users in a clinical trial experiencing a highly noticeable increase in their growth of new hair.</p>
<p>If none of the drug options work for you, or you are well beyond that point in your hair loss, you still have options. The least invasive is to consider non-surgical hair replacement. That is a fancy name for a toupee or hairpiece. There are many products to choose from, made of different materials, and having differing levels of quality. If this approach does not appeal to you, there is another treatment option to consider, if you can find a skilled provider. It takes a unique medical specialist to perform surgical hair restoration. Also known as a hair transplant, this procedure moves hair from one part of your head to another in order to fill a balding spot.</p>
<p>Whatever your situation, old or young, lots of hair loss or just a little, the message is that there is a male hair loss treatment that could work for you. It might take you some time to find the right option for your situation, but you can find much more information about this online.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Based on statistics of the American Hair Loss Association, more than 60% of men will experience appreciable hair loss by the age of 35. The statistics become more alarming the older you get, with approximately 85% of men at age 50 having significant thinning of their hair. Knowing that the odds may be against you, it pays to look at male hair loss treatment options sooner rather than later.</p>
<p>There are many myths about what causes men to lose their hair, ranging from stress to wearing hats too often. In fact, androgenic alopecia, commonly called male pattern baldness, is the primary cause of hair loss, and it is based on hormones and heredity. In other words, what you see in the male members of your family is what you are likely to experience. What you have inherited are hair follicles that are sensitive to DHT, a byproduct of testosterone. This hormone causes your hair follicles to shorten and then eventually stop producing hair.</p>
<p>If you desire to keep as much hair as you can for as long as possible, you might want to consider taking action before any loss becomes too obvious. If your genetics seem to indicate that you will have a good head of hair for a long time, then you might choose to wait to begin treatment. Either way, there are multiple treatment options available.</p>
<p>Your first line of defense might be a product that you can buy at your local supermarket, drug or discount store. Options include a special shampoo, which some believe will work on your hair and scalp to minimize fluctuations and inflammation caused by hormones. Another commonly known product claims it will help your existing hair to grow better, though it will not cause hair to grow in areas that are already bald.</p>
<p>If the over-the-counter products do not work for you, the next step might involve seeing your doctor for one of the two prescription drugs that have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration for treatment of hair loss. The first drug approved for this purpose might slow your loss of hair, but it will not cause new hair to grow since it has no impact on DHT. On the other hand, the newer drug lowers DHT levels enough that hair follicles are revived and new hair begins to grow. In clinical trials conducted with this drug, more than 60% of users experienced a substantial increase in growth of new hair. It is the first drug proven effective in treating androgenic alopecia is a majority of users.</p>
<p>Even if you have lost so much hair that you don&#8217;t feel a drug will help, there are still other options for you to consider. The first is often called hair replacement, but might more commonly be known as a toupee or hairpiece. You might be surprised to learn that there are now high quality hairpieces available that can look very natural. If that option does not appeal to you, there is also surgical hair restoration. Here you must find a highly specialized doctor, who performs a hair transplant by moving your own hair from the back of your head to the area in need of hair.</p>
<p>Whether you are 35 or 55, and have lost a little hair or most of your hair, there are male hair loss treatment options for you to consider. There is additional information available online to assist you with your search of options to fit your personal situation.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Based on statistics of the American Hair Loss Association, more than 60% of men will experience appreciable hair loss by the age of 35. The statistics become more alarming the older you get, with approximately 85% of men at age 50 having significant thinning of their hair. Knowing that the odds may be against you, it pays to look at male hair loss treatment options sooner rather than later.</p>
<p>If you want to know what your hair future holds, just look at the men in your family. Yes, there is a hereditary factor in hair loss, despite all the stories that it is caused by wearing a baseball cap all day, or by stress, or even by excess sweating. No, androgenic alopecia is the real culprit. Also known as male pattern baldness, androgenic alopecia is a combination of heredity and hormones. The hormone is DHT, a testosterone byproduct. The heredity is that you have hair follicles that are sensitive to this hormone, causing the follicles to shorten. Over time the follicles stop growing hair.</p>
<p>Knowing that it is in your genetic makeup, there are some who suggest that you take a proactive approach and start tending to your hair before loss becomes a big problem. Whether you take a proactive or reactive approach to treatment, there are several options available for treating the loss of hair.</p>
<p>An easy option that you can try at home on your own is an over-the-counter product that you can buy at your local drug store. This includes a shampoo, which some claim is supposed to calm the inflammation of the hormone fluctuations. There is also a well advertised product that you can rub into your hair and scalp. Considered a growth stimulant, it is supposed to help what hair you have left grow. It will not cause hair to grow where it is already gone.</p>
<p>To date, there are only two products that have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of hair loss. The first, and older, drug approved for this purpose can slow your hair loss, but will not create new hair growth since it does not affect DHT. A newer drug works by reducing DHT levels, allowing new hair to grow. This is the first drug to have been proven effective in treating male pattern baldness, with 65% of users in a clinical trial experiencing a highly noticeable increase in their growth of new hair.</p>
<p>If you have lost too much hair to be able to effectively use any of the drug options, you might want to investigate non-surgical hair replacement, often called a hairpiece or a toupee. There are many levels of quality of these types of products, so you must do your homework to find what meets your needs. A more extreme option is to do surgical hair restoration. This is basically a hair transplant, where DHT resistant hair from the back of your head is transplanted to the balding area. You might find it difficult to find a doctor to perform this procedure, as it is a unique specialty.</p>
<p>Whatever your situation, old or young, lots of hair loss or just a little, the message is that there is a male hair loss treatment that could work for you. It might take you some time to find the right option for your situation, but you can find much more information about this online.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[One of the most common scalp problems right now is having dandruff. It is affecting over 60% of people around the world at some stage of their lives.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dandruff is one of the most common scalp problems today. It affects over sixty percent of people globally at some point of their lives. It is not contagious or threatening to have, and people usually don&#8217;t notice that a person has dandruff unless they look too closely.</p>
<p>Fortunately, dandruff is not a serious condition and can be cured easily, depending on the cause. Among the many possible reasons for dandruff, here are the top five.</p>
<p>1. Skin dryness &#8211; Dandruff can be caused by dry skin, making it flake and have thick scales. The overuse of dryers, lack of or minimal conditioner, and even dry and winter conditions, all can cause and aggravate skin dryness and dandruff.</p>
<p>2. Seborrheic Dermatitis &#8211; This is one of the most common causes of dandruff as well. In laymen&#8217;s terms, this is dandruff caused by a fungus that feeds on the oils secreted by the skin.</p>
<p>3. Psoriasis &#8211; This is yet another common reason believed to cause dandruff. It is a non-contagious disease that can affect the skin and joints. Red, scaly patches usually appear on the skin, eventually causing dandruff.</p>
<p>4. Fungal infections &#8211; The reaction of the skin to certain fungi can cause increased productivity of oil. A fungal infection is, however, very easy to treat using only anti-fungal cream prescribed by your dermatologist</p>
<p>5. Other causes &#8211; There are many causes of dandruff still being debated on. People believe stress, poor scalp hygiene, or not using enough shampoo and conditioner, can cause dandruff. Others swear it can be caused by using a brush or comb used or owned by a person with dandruff.</p>
<p>Dandruff can usually be cured easily, as long as instructions from your dermatologist or doctor are followed well. Creams, shampoos, moisturizers, conditioners and ointments, usually containing the active ingredient Ketoconazole (an antifungal drug), can get rid of dandruff.</p>
<p>However, do not self-diagnose. There are rather unfortunate cases when an antidandruff product was used, and ended up aggravating the problem. It is best to consult an expert such as a dermatologist before using any antidandruff products.</p>
