Prevention is often one of the best approaches to managing a health condition. In some cases, it may be possible to prevent — or at least slow down — hair loss.
Though this will depend on the underlying cause.
Some of the best prevention methods include:
- Eating a balanced diet
- Using combs with wider spaces between the bristles
- Avoiding harsh treatments and hair styles
- Switching medications to avoid the side effect of hair loss, if possible
- Avoiding pulling or twisting hair
It is important to remember that not all types of hair loss can be slowed or prevented. In these cases, men can try to combat hair loss through active treatment.
