How to Keep Your Receding Hairline From Showing

Introduction

A receding hairline comes on slowly in most cases, and will come as a surprise to most men. I have seen a single example of a man who developed male pattern baldness and developed the unique pattern of balding on top of his scalp in a matter of several months. But this is the rare case, in most men who develop male pattern baldness; they lose their hair over several years.

Women who develop female pattern baldness, caused by the same hormone that causes male pattern baldness, will rarely develop a receding hairline. This is because when they develop this hair loss condition they tend to lose their hair uniformly across the scalp.

Hiding A Receding Hairline

Hiding a receding hairline should only be considered a temporary method since you will want to stop your hair loss and re-grow your hair using either Minoxidil or Finasteride, both of which are approved by the Federal Drug Administration (FDA). In the mean time here are some ways to hide your receding hairline.

* Fibers- Most people will suggest wearing a hat. But you cannot wear a hat all the time, especially if you go out to eat, go to church, attend a wedding, etc. To get away from wearing a hat, I use a hair building fiber called Toppik. You sprinkle these fibers on your hair which then binds your hairs closer together, giving your hair a fuller look. These fibers are natural organic keratin protein, the same material that makes up your natural hair.

* Makeup - Some women have had success using makeup, such as eyeliner to fill in thin spots. Though I have never tried it, there are reports of success using this method to conceal a receding hairline.

* Hair Style- Talk to your hair stylist on various ways you can style your hair to cover up your retreating hairline. For example, I grew my hair longer and have combed it slightly forward. This works perfectly for me. There are several other hairstyles your stylist or barber can suggest for you. They may even suggest you shave your head and go bald.

* Grow Facial Hair- One other thing I have done is grown a beard, it helps to distract people away from your receding hairline.
