My Hair Is Thinning Where My Head Lays on My Pillow
I love your site.
I have a strange question for you. For the last few months I have been sleeping with my hand kind of positioned as a pillow, if that makes sense. I also sleep on one side and it just so happens my hair has thinned out just in this area. Between the ear and my temple right at the front edge. This is exactly where my hand is when I sleep. Could this be caused from this. I have changed my sleeping pattern, will the hair grow back. Thanks
I have never seen this before and only have had one person that I can recall even writing to me about a similar situation (Ergonomic Pillow and Hair Loss), and except for people who have trichotillomania and pull on their hair even in their sleep.
You should be examined by a good doctor. A miniaturization study should be done to see just what is happening. If your hair is miniaturized and you are rubbing on it, it might come out.
I also wonder if pillow affects baldness. because I have also noticed that my hair is thinning where i lay my head in the pillow.
could it be?
I HAVE THIN, BABY FINE HAIR. I NOTICED THIS ONE VERY THIN SPOT IS WHERE MY HEAD LIES ON THE PILLOW. I THOUGHT I ONCE READ THAT SATIN PILLOW CASES WORKED. CLUELESS!
I sleep on fleece pillowcases, and my hair is coming out exactly where my head hits the pillow on both sides. Does anyone else have this problem?
Yes, my hair is breaking off and thinking where my head rest on the FLLECE pillow case. Now that I think about it I think it started about the time I I put my fleece sheets on for winter. I just ordered a satin hair sleep cap to see if that helps..
I meant thinning
