Seven hair-loss myths people still believe
Do caps cause baldness? Does daily shampoo damage hair? We separate common myths from what is more reasonable.

Myth: caps or the tudung cause baldness
A clean head covering that is not too tight is not shown to cause baldness. Hygiene, moisture and constant pulling matter more. Read the tudung and hair health.
Myth: daily shampoo makes hair fall out
Washing only removes hairs that were already loose. In hot weather an oily scalp may feel better washed more often with a gentle shampoo.
Myth: cutting hair makes it thicker
A trim removes damaged ends and can make hair look neater, but it does not change what grows from the scalp.
Myth: only older men thin
Women and young people thin too. The pattern and causes differ, which is why a suitability check is done individually.

Does coconut oil regrow hair?
Oil can make hair feel softer. For weak follicles, a scalp treatment that reactivates them is a better fit.
Is brushing 100 strokes a day good?
No. Over-brushing can cause friction and breakage. Brush enough to detangle and style.
