Tips for Fighting Back Against a Receding Hairline and Hair Loss

As I have inched a few years past the age of thirty, I have noticed an obvious sign that age is starting to creep up on me a bit: my forehead seems to be getting bigger! At first, I just passed it off as bad lighting, a dirty mirror, or the results of a funny haircut. However, as I have examined my hairline with a more realistic and unbiased eye, I have come to the conclusion that indeed my hairline has started to move north. I recently viewed a picture of myself from when I was twenty-four years old, and I was literally spooked at how low my hairline appeared back then as opposed to my current age. Now, I don't want you to get the wrong impression and start thinking that I'm some sort of a looks-obsessed guy; I'm not! I've never had a manicure or a pedicure in my life. I've never been to a day spa, I've never had a facial, and I don't spend an obscene amount of time fussing about my appearance. However, I have always valued my hair. I think that having a full head of hair should be a natural right; having a full head of hair and a strong hairline is healthy and normal. So, in my eyes, the fact that I'm more than a little concerned with my retreating hairline is not a sign of weakness or insecurity on my part, but a sign that I have a healthy sense of right and wrong. And, having a full head of hair is right; it's how a person's head is supposed to be - fully covered in hair! Hair on top of the head - besides being pleasing to the eye - serves a purpose; it keeps us warm, it shields our heads from the elements, e.t.c.
