Hair Loss and POT

  • Thread starter strain_searcher
  • Start date
Depending on your level of smoking the whole hair thing may be metabolically driven. Many people notice an increase in metabolic activity when smoking... ie. increased appetite increased thought rate, and even pulse rate in some instances. Many hyperthyroid individuals shed hair and grow hair more rapidly. Perhaps an increased metabolic rate is making the hair turnover rate higher. Does your hair look healthier when smoking? If so, then this may be what is occuring, as the hairs die they fall out... shouldn't thin out the whole mop, but what's there should be the cream of your head and possibly exhibit quite a sheen. This seems like a stretch to me but physiologically it's a possibility. I would still lean more towards the "maybe you're just stoned" side.

There is baldness in the family and the way I have avoided it is when my hair starts overly shedding I would shave my head use nioxin. I have a mop on my head. I notice when people get older they try to hold on to long wispy thin hair and cant stomach shaving there head and giving their scalp a rest. There is no hope for these individuals and the hair folicle will die. Once again I am not stoned and besides dehydration that causes hair to fall out Im sure there is something to this. That whole shaving your head doesnt make your hair grow back thicker is bullshit. If you start doing it in late teens and shave your head once or twice a year it does work.

This may only hold true for people prone to hairloss in the family. Someone smoking 30 years with hair down to their ass wont be affected as genes have eliminated them from my point.

ss. oxygen levels are effected by smoking. Perhaps that is a factor.

physiologically i think the effect the pot has onguys lays more so in the male hormone side of things? im not sure what exactly, so dont quote me, but pot does something to our testosterone? somehow impedes or affects the uptake? :chin:

i dont know im just stoned ahaha i dont care if i go bald...i used to be like the fonz about my hair but now it doesnt seem to matter anymore...not sure why, maybe im just to stoned to care :D :joint:

if im not mistaken a unbalanced hormone level will indeed put out hairloss.
tho if i remember correctly, it's mostly due to a too high of level in testosterone.
Reason many body builders go bald early, get acne, ...
they often take shit which has the side-effect of producing testosterone.
Roid rage, remember? :)
but if your genetically programmed to lose your hair, you will any or other way..
crossing my fingers myself :p
letting it grow long now.. while i still got it lol...

:laughing:

hehe, funny stuff Leeroy. :biglaugh:
I'm with you mate. If it falls out, it falls out. Shit happens. I aint gonnastress about it. IN FACT, It is my intention to embrace it and shave the rest o my junk off when it gets too thin. I'm NOT president of the Hair Club For Men, nor am I a member (hehe, he said member)
No hair implants, or transplants, maybe some pot plants...they'd look good up there. :biglaugh:
And DEFINITELY JUST SAY NO TO THE COMBOVER!
I mean, slightly rearranging a bit of hair to fill in the thin spots is one thing, but fellas...them cats that comb some lower neck or upper back hair up and over the top and swirl it around a few times to fill in that enpty front patch aint foolin anybody! That looks mightily silly, and I'll have no part of it. So...it's the shaven head club for this cook when it gets too thin. It'll give me a particular sinister villinaous look with my current facial hair arrangement(a look I strive for...keeps people honest :biglaugh: )
So then I can put my head together with Gypsy and look like an ass :biglaugh:
(no offense there Gypper :wink: )

So, don't stress the hair thang fellas...could be worse.. if 75% of us shed our nards at an old age :yoinks: , now THAT wouild suck! :biglaugh:
I'm goin to smoke more of these Lowryder x Masterkush nugs :smile:

Did I read that correctly Strain S. You can shave your head once or twice a year and your hair comes in thicker ? I would have never thought you could prune your head... damn who'da thunk it !

Actually I think it has had just the opposite affect on me, I have hair growing outta places it never grew before. I definately am not loosing any. If this theory was true I'd be the slickest MF on the planet.

I came back to smoking herb 5 years ago, and my hair stopped falling out! I have hereditary male pattern baldness, and the weed decreased my testosterone, and my hair loss stopped.
