Excessive hair cutting can cause hair loss

Hola:

Entre todos los comentarios, el tuyo es el mas inteligente. No se si conoces el foro de ganarpelo.org, me gustaría verte por allí.

Observo que has comprendido mi idea y me gustaria contestarte.
Es una tribu existente en el amazonas, esta concretamente en Venezuela y usan la caña, para obtener una especie de cuchilla donde rasuran al cero.

El pelo como media crece 1 cm al mes, no un centimetro cada tres dias.

Un saludo

Armando

» 1. do you know if the tonsured Yonimamo women get eventually bald? How do
» they tonsure them? by normal shaving or by plucking? I think I have seen in

» 2. It is true that scalp hair is different than beard hair, so yes, in
» theory, it could behave differently. But if your theory relies on the idea
» that clogged sebum is poison, then this should affect any follicle, not
» just the scalp follicles.
»
» 3. You say that shampooing is not capable of penetrating deep enough in
» the follicle to remove sebum. are you sure about this? Many people say that
» shampooing is bad because it penetrates too deep into the follicle.
» But, even if shampoo doesn’t penetrate deep into the follicle, it is clear
» that it removes the sebum in the outside portion of the hair shaft, and
» thus, the sebum inside the follicle would tend to be “absorbed” by the dry
» hair outside, and this would be equivalent to the “pillow effect” you
» commented before.
»
» 4. Also, note that nowadays, people shampoo their hair everyday, so they
» remove all the sebum in the outside of the hair. Then the pillow won’t
» absorb any amount of sebum from the hair, because this hair contains no
» sebum.
»
» 5. So I think sebum removal nowadays is guaranteed, and excess of sebum is
» not the problem.
»
» 6. Another effect you must account in, is the rate of hair growth.
» According to my data, hair grows 0.33cm/day and this would drag sebum
» outwards. I think follicle depth is 5mm, so in 15 days you have the whole
» channel clean of old sebum. Except, maybe, the extreme bottom of the
» “pit”.
»
» 7. Also, when hairs from the back of the head are transplanted to the bald
» top, they don’t enjoy the pillow effect anymore, so they should die
» according to your theory. But they don’t.
