Title: going sly causes hair regrowth?
Post by: jon92388 on June 06, 2007, 10:42:01 PM
I have been very busy these past few days and haven't been able to shave. my friend noticed that in spots where i was going bald it came back. i still have the widows peak but its just strange.

Hasn't happened to me either, but I wouldn't rule it out as a possibility.

maybe it is possible.

Being Sly gives you a chance to give your scalp some TLC.

I talked to my doc about it. He said its probable that the clumps of hair that were falling out was due to stress and as ive been trying to be stress free its coming back. However I am still going bald in front haha. got that widows peak thing going on. Even though its growing back ive pretty much decided to stay sly. its much better anyways. thanks guys

Perhaps your scalp is also healthier if you're applying any kind of skin care creams or lotions.  Skin conditions can affect hair growth.

I don't see how it's possible to be honest.  Once you lose it I think it's gone for good.

jon92388, don't wimp out on us (just kidding).  You look really good with a smooth dome, so keep it going.

I think your doctor is correct.  Some of your hair loss was probably due to other factors.  Change those factors, change the result. 

One of the prime falacies to sway a debate is "Post hoc, ergo propter hoc.", arguing from a temporal sequence to a causal relationship ("after this, therefore because of this").   It's like stating that playing the National Anthem causes a baseball game to occur.

Honestly after everything I've gained from going sly, I'd never go back. Call me mentally bald by choice  O:O

I have to agree with this phenomenon, as it is happening to me.  Not very much at all, but there are a few hairs that just appeared out in the middle of nowhere on my temples (and if you look closely, they look odd all by themselves).  And after spending 8-9 months trying to regrow some, I spent enough time studying my hairline to know where each little hair was, and these were definitely not there a month ago.

Not that a few hairs are anything to be excited about as it doesn't change anything, but I am very curious about this.

I've heard that shaving it does help regrow hair, but it pretty much grows patchy in places. I would check it out online or talk to your doctor about regrowth causes. Personally, I would just stay bald, it's way more fun! Anyway, whatever you choose, do it because it makes YOU happy!
