Marijuana and Hair Loss
Does smoking marijuana cause hair loss?
It has been suggested that there is a connection between marijuana smoking and hair loss. However, since many young men are genetically predetermined to lose their hair, a man who both smokes and has genetic hair loss may produce further connections, real, circumstantial or otherwise.
I used marijuanna heavily for 1-2 months, over this period i felt immense “tingling” sensation over my head (only occurred after some time of smoking). As a result my hair began to fall out constantly, i quit smoking and even months later the tingling sensation was there but more faint. My hair to a more lighter colour, thinned and fell out. It took about two years of not smoking and my hair has completely recovered (although it was a very slow process)
This is very interesting as I have also had this. One night in particular i remember wondering if i had a brain tumor because there was a very intense tingling/burning sensation on the top/front of my head. Almost like the feeling of niacin flushing out shrooms from your body. I have been experiencing thinning and hair loss above the temples but very far to the left and right of my head. none on the back and none really on the top or middle. It doesn’t really look like normal MPB but then again whats normal when theres millions of different balding patterns.
haha same thing as john exactly
Hi found the same thing.Been smoking pot now for more than seven years and and resently my hair thinned dramaticlly and now have several bald spots covering the whole of my head.Have stopped smoking Immediately.It is my personal opinion that this was do to smoking from a pipe as it would be a more concentrated dose of THC.
