Best Way to Dry My Hair?
Hello, I was wondering if you recommend blow drying, towel drying, or air drying hair when one is suffering from male pattern baldness and is thinning out/losing hair? For purposes of getting ready in the morning, air drying is not really an option. Thank you!
If your hair is coming out because of the balding process, you must be gentle with the drying process. Do not rub your hair with a towel. Just pat it dry. When using a blow dryer, be sure not to use it on a hot setting, as it is best with low heat or no heat at all.
I’m interested in why it would matter? Surely the hair is going to come out anyway if you’re balding?
Dr Rassman, are you suggesting that you can ‘slow things down a bit’ by being more gentle on the hair?
Thanks
Dr Rassman – what does it matter about how you dry the hair if the miiaturised hairs are going to fall out anyway?
Do you mean to say that being rough with balding hair can cause you to go bald quicker?
I’ve always towel dried my hair by rubbing hence the question.
Sorry – thought my inital comment hadn’t posted.
