Hey guys, I've been performing scalp laxity exercises a lot over the past several weeks in preparation for my upcoming HT, but recently I have been noticing that I lose some hairs while performing them. Do you think I'm performing the movements too hard or is this normal to lose a few hairs after doing these exercises? Thanks

If you rub any area on the scalp regularly you will cause hair to shed. Nothing to be worried about - it will all grow back. Cool

Sounds like some vigorous exercises... hope you have not got too much laxity like my dog.. Razz

Be careful not to grab the hair while doing the exercises. I was doing that at first because my hair wasn't long enough and it was hard to get traction.

It helps a lot of you do the exercises after washing your hair and it's still a little damp. A lot better grip on the scalp without having a tendency to grab the hair itself.

Spex,

It's funny you posted that photo. Sometimes I grab my dogs skin and fur lightly and pull to see how much elasticity she had. I have to say that I wish us baldies could have as much elasticity as a dog sometimes. Donor hair wouldn't be nearly as limited then :-)

Fingers Crossed,

I agree with the advice you've been given. Just be sure your gripping the scalp, not the hair itself. Some hairs may fall out during the process but only because they were ready to shed anyway.

Best wishes,

Bill (Falc)

I think the infamous LondonLad had more Laxity than my dog or any dog for that matter.

LOL! Smile Spex, we should battle your dog in a laxity-off against Jotronic -- winner faces LondonLad for the crown.

With all due respect to Joe and LL'S laxity - My dog would honestly wipe the floor with both combined as not only does he have super stretchy skin i have secrectly been performing Joes exercises on him for the past 6 months; why do you think he looks so piss off Smile

Spex,

It looks like someone's been working on that dog's elasticity for the last 15 years :-)
