The thought of losing my hair terrifies me.  My dad is 70 and still has a head full of thick hair, so I have always expected to enjoy the same luxury.  Up until a year ago, my hair was growing just fine and showed no signs of slowing down.  Unfortunately, I started having problems with a red, itchy scalp at the front of my hair near the hair line.  At first it was just annoying, but then my worst nightmare started happening: my hair started falling out.

At first it was just a piece or two, but then it started to fall out in larger chunks, day after day.  I panicked.  Was I going to have to get Rogaine?  A hair piece?  How bad could it get?

Then, one day, I remembered that my girlfriend had been raving about a hair growth oil she’s been using called mira hair oil.  It’s filled with a lot of hair growth herbs and it’s been a big help for her thin hair.  In desperation, I started to use it.  Amazingly, my scalp started to heal up the very next day and the hair started to grow back over the next few months, although it was a slow process.

The whole experience made me appreciate my hair even more.  I’m glad I was able to solve the problem without medical intervention and hope I never have to deal with it again.  If so, I’ll just have to hit up my girlfriend for another bottle of hair oil.  (For the record, I believe it may have been some sort of weird rash that irritated my scalp and caused the hair follicles to loosen.)
