What'S up YouTube? It'S your boy! She ain't coming back to you with another video now today, man, we're gon na, be talking about something that I love so much and that's gon na be my hair right. So if you love your hair, like me, I definitely suggest you stay tuned and if you're watching this video right or if it popped up on your side and just happened to play right now right, it's a sign telling you that you're either thinning right. You passed it and you balding right, but I'm telling you right here that we're gon na have some type of solution that you can, at least, if it ain't gon na cure it right, because I'm saying that I can cure your baldness right, but I will be Able to tell you something that can hopefully help out or let you just hold on a little bit. You know you see them guys, they just hold it on. Maybe you can hold on just a little bit more without looking like the rest of the people. All right so yeah man, let's dive into it right first thing. Let me go ahead and tell y'all something bro. This is perfectly normal, it's okay right, because I can actually attest to this. Why? Because I went through it right. I went through early age, military ball and I was stressed, and I was thinning and then probably was only making it worse right, but it was one of them things like yo. You know our hair is like you know it's almost like our identity, like we had it for so long. It'S just it's like part of us right. We grew up with. It is part of us right so losing it can be something that really come down on. Y'All and us right because I was searching the web like crazy bro, I'm moving like a hair transplants, I'm over here trying to get LeBron James, I'm I'm about to go all the way with it until I actually found what I found right. Let me teach you guys right so that way we can go ahead and just you know you can get your hair back, going crazy, like mine, all right, hey, let y'all know ain't, no, two pay or something you know I mean on a wig. You know I mean this is out my scalp all right, so let's go ahead and get into it. So I would one of my topics that I had on here. Written down is to not ignore it right, but obviously, if you watch this video you're not ignoring it right or even if this was one of them joints that just happened to play next right. This is your sign. You might be balding I'll, let you know right now. You might be bowling right and if you feel like I'm 17, I'm 18, it ain't gon na happen to me. Hey man, listen, I know with some ogs in the comments. That'S probably like listen. This will happen to anybody when it happened to me, I thought it was. I was like something's wrong, like something is way more wrong than what I think right now all right. So what happened to you so don't overlook this, because I'm giving y'all some stuff on how to prevent it. Also right because right now, I'm back in my Prevention mode. I didn't beat it for so far. You feel me it's time to get back into the prevent defense. You feel me all right all right, so I'm gon na drop this little one scientific thing on why this happened and then we're gon na move back on to you know how she explains stuff. You know if you guys first time watching me, you know I don't do all the extra brand and tell you all this scientific stuff, and all of this I get straight to the point all right. So if you like this type of stuff, you know make sure you consider subscribing right. That'S not even considered just make sure you hit the red button right. It'S really not even option at this point all right but check this out. Let'S look so DHT is the chemicals or whatever you want to call it right that results in our hair, follicles shrinking all right, so most men right we're gon na thin and ball due to androgenic alopecia. Okay, that's just basically like male pattern. Baldness, you know you start to get the you know you get that type of Joy all right, but it's perfectly normal. Okay and it comes from DHT, which is, I think, comes from testosterone honestly right and it basically just shrinks the hair follicle right until nothing grows out of it all right. So, first thing: let's, let's go! Let me go ahead and dive into like how it happened. For me and show y'all like the early signs of it all right so first thing: first man, if y'all didn't know right, go watch my older videos. I used to be a serious waiver. Okay, like for so many years of my life, I was always waiting all right, so I was always brushing my hair brush my hair brush, my hair, always having do-rags on always doing these always doing some with my hair right and then I just started noticing right. I'M like dang bro, my my corner is kind of a little thin right. They just thin and everything else right, but when it first started happening, it's not noticeable enough for you to go ahead and you know do something about it. You just comb it a little bit like I don't know. What'S going on, you start thinking that Barbie man pushed you back or something like that right, but I'm telling you guys it's gon na start, looking lighter right and make something is going to be off right. That'S your first sign, like you know what let me go ahead and get into this right, but you've got to pay attention because I can't tell you guys bro. I look back at pictures and it's like how did I spot this earlier? It'S like I used to look in the mirror every day. How did I see this right so right now, a lot of you guys might be in denial. Your roof may already be gone, and you sitting here you're in denial, there's nothing about your body and then bro. So you got ta, make sure that you are getting on top of it right, we're gon na get into how to get on top of it right. So that way, you can stop it dead in his tracks, but right now it's just about the early stages. So if you start noticing like depending on your hair texture right, I obviously I'm not brushing my hair. Obviously I ain't just combing through my hair right now. Right, but if you got that hair texture right, because you know many different types of ethnicities watch this video, so if you got straighter hair you might be combing your hair or whatever you do to it all right. So if you start noticing there's more stuff in that comb or it's more stuff in that brush than usual, then you might want to start checking on that start. Parting, your hair and looking down at your scalp and all that type of stuff, because you want to be able to see and get down to it right and, of course, before we get into all of this, depending on how your health care is set up, you May want to go, see the dermatitis. I know some of you guys are saying, go see the dermatologist you like hold on bro. They don't even cover me for Cold and Flu. You feel me, but you may just want to still go see what you can get done right, go to a dermatologist and be honest with y'all. I ain't never been to a dermatologist, but that's what everybody said go see. A dermatologist right go see a dermatologist. So you have where you can see exactly why you know what I'm saying your hair may be thin in whatever the case is, but if you're just like me, then you just go. Watch a video like this, I'm just gon na get it on to it. It'S like don't care what the professional talk about, I'm just trying to get to the solutions, but if you want to go the right route, you definitely should see like okay. Well, what is the exact thing? That'S you know wrong. That'S causing this right because you may have some type of deficiency like a vitamin deficiency or iron deficiency. Something like that. It may be that simple um like I did. I had a vitamin D deficiency so just give you a quick tip. I mean I ain't trying to make this video too long, but all my people out here that look like me, you know my folks out there listen bro. You might want to go, see the doctor, because most of us have some sort of vitamin D deficiency. If I'm not mistaken, because since we got that melanin in our skin, you know what I mean like we got that melon in our skin. So it's a little harder for us to take in the vitamin D within ourselves. You know what I'm saying so, but that's neither here and there go go. Get yourself checked out. That'S the first thing all right, but I knew it was nothing too crazy. Nothing like that because I was in the military at the time. So I was always getting blood work done and I was in the process of medboards and stuff like that, so he was checking me fully out, so I knew that nothing else was going on. So now, let's go on to some other reasons. You know um on. Why you may be thinning right so that way, you'd be like? Oh okay? Maybe it's that right! So if you're not getting enough sleep like the building blocks to your entire body, and I'm talking to myself, because I don't get enough sleep right, but you got to at least get something all right, so at least get at least try to get like six hours. Five to six hours at least try to get that. You know what I mean, no matter, how fresh this once you go, get eight hours and all that type of stuff like we ain't got money to get to. But you know if you could, if you could do that, go do that all right, but sleep, that's the number one make sure you get in sleep after sleep. You got ta make sure your water intake is good. Guys, like our body, is made of most water. Like our brain is full of water like everything that, like we need water, you guys understand this. Your hair is almost like the plant of your body right. So if I can water my plant, how is my plant gon na grow? If I don't sleep, how is my plant gon na grow? You ever just wake up to see more ad on your face. I mean not wake up you ever just throughout the day, just oh I'm seeing it growing, I'm coming right now, nah bro! Most of this type of stuff happens while you're asleep, so you got ta get to sleep. You got got ta, get the uh the Water. What comes after the water? You got ta. Have that good nutrition. So if you don't eat no fruits and no veggies guys it's time to grow up right, I know you don't like that broccoli, my boy, but it's time to get your broccoli in. I know you don't like them. Brussels sprouts throw some cheese on them, get that brussels sprouts to pay you, but we got ta make sure that we're eating. Well, I thought I wasn't recording for a second got. Ta make sure it's eating fruits, vegetables right and if you guys, you know you're that hard-headed. That'S stubborn! You ain't, gon na eat, no personal vegetables. Then you got ta, make sure that you take it some type of supplement for it or something all right. Take a men's one a day you know, or I got some green supplement right because I was in the military I wasn't able to eat. You know certain places I wasn't able to eat all the good food, so I had stuff to supplement all that type of stuff to have all my vitamins in it um and all that so make sure you guys are getting your your sleep, your food, your water, All right now, Nettles are some basic things right. So, if you're not getting those, then no wonder your hair is not growing all right now, some other things to consider right so guys, if you're a waiver out there bro, if you can't be wearing your do-rag so tight, that is putting the lines across you. Anybody haven't seen that yo see this. If I come up, I know their head hurt yo. You ain't, never tied that durag! So tight that you laying there trying to go to sleep and you're like no. No, I got ta unless this one. This is a little too tight. Some of you guys got ta have a little more awareness bro. If you is taking the blood circulation out, your forehead tying something across your head. Do you think your hair is going to grow? It needs blood flow. It needs sunlight. Some of you guys heads, don't even touch the sun, you always wearing hats. You always got a durag on. Let Your Hair get some sun. Let it breathe right, you guys, God come on, let it breathe man, your hair, depressed under there bro. So these are some things, obviously I'm throwing in a little bit of extra comedy and all that extra stuff right, because nobody wants to watch a boring video best about stuff like this um. But most things need to be common sense, guys right. So if you, if you sleep in you, know what I mean get yourself like in my bedroom, I'm not gon na show you my bedroom, but in my bedroom I have a silk pillowcase: oh, Not, Silk! It'S a satin pillowcase right because I you know, I don't want my hair on that, especially good for your skin guys, but you also can invest in something like this remember. This is like a because my hair is pretty long now right now, usually when my hair is braided up, because this ain't usual right, but when my hair is braided up, I usually just wear a do-rag or whatever when I go to sleep, but I also got This thing right here for when my hair is out that it's it's satin lined and all that type of stuff. I just throw it over top of my head and I go to sleep, to keep my hair protected because guys you're cotton. Now, especially, my beauty got them straight, hair too. Listen that cotton will really break your hair off like it breaks your hair off. It dries your hair out. This is bad bro, so go get a satin pillowcase, it's better for your face and everything right. Some of you guys got acne and all types of you don't know why it's your pillowcase! First of all, you don't even wash it, but that's another story, but those I mean that all right now, another thing, if you guys are getting too frequent of haircuts. Your haircut is too frequent bro. You can't have a crispy cut every single time right, because what you're doing is every time you get a haircut, especially a lineup right. You know some of you guys don't even get lineups right depending on your hair texture, but you got hair like me, you get lineups right. So with a lineup every single time you get it lined up it's it's literally like a microscopic pushback. Look at it. That way, because it has to cut something right, so if you're getting your hair cut once a week, what do you think you're cutting you not just keep cutting off New Growth, you pushing yourself back. So next thing you know: bro you gon na, be saluting back here right because most of my guys watching this are in the military or going to the military, but you're gon na be saluting, even if you have a cover on get the joke guys. Somebody in my comments would be like, but we don't salute without the covers on it. I I get it bro. You get the joke man all right, but I can go on a list of reasons all day why you may be balding or something like that, while you're thinning, um and and wearing hats, 24. 7. That'S another way. I go ball because you're cutting off that circulation, especially if it's tight um, but I could. I can go off reasons on why you need to be thin and balding every day. But you got ta, look at some self-awareness and look at your life and think about. Okay, why is this happening to me right? Of course, it may be just genetics right. So if you know your dad bald it by 21 and he would he had the Nifty, the Nifty baldy on his dome by the 24, or I mean by like 22 23. Today, man, you know, invest in a hat or something, but if you trying to hold on as long as you can right, your dad ain't bald till 40, we try to at least hold to a 40.. We try at least hold to 50., whatever your dad bought. It at we trying to at least get past where he went all right, but anyway, some treatments that you guys can do and all the treatments that I'm telling you is something that I've actually used all right. So, first thing: first, what I would what I will tell you guys to do is start doing: scalp massages, scalp, massage easiest day, literally just getting in and you're just doing something like this right now. You can double that with like some essential oils or like different hair oils. Right that say it's good, for you know, hair growth or whatever um like I got a little stuff. I'M not gon na show it to y'all, because I'm not a sponsoring nobody. You know all that type of stuff and then I'm not that's a new bottle, so I'm not even gon na say it works yet, but go get yourself. Some hair growth, oil right, it's gon na - add maybe like some black cat Jamaican black castor oil in it Shake whatever different oils they be putting in. So I know scientists or nothing but go buy some oils or something that say it's good for hair growth right, especially for your hair texture. Whatever your porosity of hair is learn that guys write that down porosity, you can learn what's good for your hair man, um and yeah, and you want to be massaging that wherever your trouble spots is so for me, it was my Corners. It was my corners and it was straight down like it was like right here too, like it was just thinning right and I'll put some pictures in here. If I didn't already show you right, but you want to be massaging that and massage that and massaging that in right really getting in there, not scratching, not scratching. But you want to massage it massage that oil and do that every other night or every night or whatever the case is just do that everything all the time always be scalp massages and you're gon na notice a difference, because what says doing is it's stimulating that That blood circulation, so what blood does the When You Want Blood wherever the affected spots is because it's going to bring new nutrients to that area, right more oxygen to that area? That'S what blood is for it's going to bring nutrients and oxygen to wherever is is going right. So if I'm stimulating this, it's going to bring more guys get what I'm saying so: scalp massages um after scalp massages right The Next Step. Let'S see, let's see um you guys can start, you guys can start taking biotin right biotin, but you got ta drink a ton of water right, I'm currently not taking biology right now. I should, but you got ta drink, a ton of water for it to actually work for you, I mean, like almost a gallon a day, bro like put water straight down if you're gon na be taking biotin or any of them type of supplements for you, you Need to take a lot of water um for it to actually work right. You can use biotin like 5, 000 milligrams or whatever the case is right. No, no! Listen! Let'S get this straight. When I start mentioning milligrams and all this type of stuff, I don't need y'all oding on no biotin or nothing like that, all right. So, of course, if I say 5, 000 milligrams and it's say 5 000 whatever's under milligrams, then you use that one all right. I don't need y'all, go and get some go and get something crazy, because that's not I'm not a doctor and I'm not gon na act like I'm a doctor or nothing like that. I'M just telling you guys What I've Done Right. I just know I've seen on the bottle: it say: 5 000, something so 5000 MCG 5000 mg, something like that right. I'Ve even seen Ten Thousand Ones right but start off with a little lower and then move up. If you want right use, biotin um, I was using box and it does work um other than biotin. You guys can start doing some of these different wrenches, obviously on YouTube people know all type of rinses, maybe on these rice, water, rinses they've been doing green tea. Rinses, basically, you just like make a pot of this or let the rice sit in it for a long or whatever. The case is and pour that over your hair um, but it's just general overall caring for your hair. As guys you know, I mean we wasn't always doing that right. We just look at it like it's. My hair is good, it's good to go right, but we got to take care of it. We got ta. Try to you know, uh, keep it moisturized right. So that way, it's not always breaking off and all so a lot of times you guys are thinning because your hair, just too dry bro. It'S like like it's trying to comb a cactus or something. So, of course, it's gon na break, so you need to take care of it moisturize it learn how to moisturize your hair. I didn't teach you all that this hair, we ain't, going to get in no shower and I'm showing you how to moisturize my hair right. It'S 90 dudes watching this channel right, y'all, my dogs, I'm just teaching y'all the ways of teaching. I'M really give me a wake-up call right so boom. We got that right. We got the midnight, I mean almost almost misstep, that's something that was coming coming next um. You guys can also uh, I remember for a while. I was, and this ain't no sponsored stuff right, but for a while I was getting like the hymns packages. You guys can Google them. If you want. I was gon na like the hand packages for like hair growth, and it was coming with like um like it was coming with, like minoxidil. It was like the liquid minoxidil. It was also come in with like these gummies I was taking for hair growth and then it also came with like a uh like a shampoo that was a DHT blocker. So remember, I said the DHT is: what causes the the fossils to shrink up? This came with a shampoo that was a DHT blocker right, but you know me, you know I'm saying clear, but you know black people, you know we don't wash our hair as much as everyone else. So I didn't look at this. The um, the shampoo as too much of something that was helping me out because I'm not a person, that's washing my hair daily for it to work like on a DHT blocker. So that's just how that goes. Give y'all honest review um and I stopped using their uh, not finished right. That'S another thing you guys can take finasteride is something you can get prescribed for, but I was always so inconsistent with taking it that I'm not gon na say that it worked for me because I just wasn't taking it um, but anyway, back to the minoxidil right. What minoxidil is is basically like men's Rogaine right now. It'S a it's supposed to be used like the crown of the area crown of the head and all type of stuff, but y'all, throwing on the corners, and I will tell you minoxidil does work, but it also does have side effects. So my side effects was my like, wherever I was putting, that was always so itchy I mean it'll, be so itchy right because I was loose. I was using the liquid one and the liquid one has the propylene glycol. So if you're going to use Minoxidil go with the foam okay, but the liquid was always making me itch, so it was so counterintuitive. I stopped using it because I would itch my head so much that it would be like dark spots on my forehead because I'm itching so much so I was really almost raking the hair out that I'm growing, but it did work. I will say that I saw a noticeable change um with the minoxidil, so use it if you guys want try it out or whatever the case is, but minoxidil Works alright. So so I mean the main thing that comes with this stuff guys is you got to be a little more careful got to be more aware of what you're doing with your hair the things that you're putting inside your body. This is a wake up a little bit of overall healthier guys now, if you are somebody that is standing right and you're insecure about that um, because I feel like everyone will be, you know at the beginning or whatever cases I want you guys to understand this Man, it's not the end of the world. Your hair does not define you as a person. Of course it was cool to have. But it's not you know it doesn't Define you as a person. I don't want anyone feeling down or anything like that. Um and it just came to my mind because you guys know I'd be all over the place. Last thing, I need you guys to understand for a treatment that I was using. That was working guys. This is what I did bro. I went to my uh local grocery store and I got these um. I got this Rosemary like actual Rosemary right. It was only like a dollar like all these Rosemary stuff and I put it in water right. I came home. I like boiled it. I boiled that water with the uh. Well, I didn't boil I had it on like low heat for long like an hour like until they turn green right and then what I did was. I poured that in a spray bottle and I would spray my hair and I would keep it in the refrigerator and I would spray my hair with that. Literally every single day Rosemary does wonders for your hair. It does absolute wonders. It almost has I've done research, it does almost like the same effects of something like minoxidil was. So if you want to try the Rosemary first before you guys try the other stuff make sure you do that um, and I also of course I always just make sure I put oil in my hair oil, massage, give you a quick rundown oil, it massage it. You know what I'm saying: spritzable water a little bit if you want right massaging, but you just got ta, take care of your hair, guys right sleep with something on your head. Man um! If you do need something prescribed over the counter, you feel like you're, too far gone, go talk to your doctor right, your doctor can prescribe you things like for nasta ride. What finasteride does is make you not lose your hair. I guess right unless you keep what you got, but it won't help you regrow anything. So these other things is going to be like help you regrow and stuff like that, where I think finasteride isn't really geared to help. You regrow it just pretty much gon na help you stabilize what you already got so that way you don't lose more all right, but I'm telling you guys listen to what I'm saying right, because I know a lot of people probably already clicked off this video, like Oh, this is boring, he's all over the place, whatever the case is, but I'm telling you something I got my hair back bro and it's nice and full and like the only thing you see here, this is a part because I usually have braids in my head, But my hair is as thick - and I don't know if you guys see this thick and it's long as it want to be man, so um. Listen to what I'm saying guys up your water intake up up the food and nutrients that you put in your body right and then incorporate the holistic approach before you go to the medicine and all that type of stuff, guys um but yeah man. So it is what it is guys, it's something that we all deal with as men that we will deal with sooner or later now, some of you guys won't deal with it. Some of you guys will most of us will all right so nothing to be ashamed of just get on top of it guys. I appreciate you guys for watching this video I'm gon na make sure. Hopefully I threw some pictures in here whatever, but if you like, this video uh make sure you hit the like button or whatever the case is now, I probably won't be dropping no more hair care videos. So man, let's go with this, go, get a million views of, but whatever whatever the case is man um. I appreciate y'all watching this video a little bit different. A little bit different make sure you chatting with me on Instagram, I'm doing some big things over there right. I announced different videos. Let y'all vote on what videos y'all want, or you can always message me a request or whatever, and if I don't make a video I'll, probably send you a voice, note back or something like that. Um and don't be scared, guys, don't be scammed on Instagram. I literally got like 30 different fake profiles that has my exact same pictures, exact same bio, all these different things, so please do not get scammed all right so, like I said man, I appreciate y'all watching this video. If You Stay official like a rapper with a whistle all you guys are asking about these t-shirts, I'm coming out with a whole new design. Whole new logo whole new brand of stuff man, so make sure y'all support that when it come out, but we on the road to 100K bro, I don't know what type of content I'm gon na drop after this. That'S probably why I don't drop so many videos, because I'm not a type person to just throw stuff out here or whatever the case is so I'm trying to figure out what route I want to take this channel in right and then you guys will be seeing That in the future, hey so real, quick guys, one thing I forgot to mention is the reason I titled this. You know I like whatever I end up talking about the military right, early, balding or whatever the case is, is because man in the military we are stressed out so much right, and I want you guys to understand that stress is not something that you just always Feel right, but it may show in other ways right: it's not gon na be like I feel stressed out, but your body may be showing you signs that you're stressed out right. So that's why I titled this right. I don't want you guys think is like this type of clickbait or whatever, like. Oh you just through the military and they're like not like for real. It happens a lot in the military because check this out man. If you look at most of the Chiefs or whatever Branch you are mostly e7s, most of them be bald man seriously. Like almost like a rite of passage, you make it the E7. You got the body right like there's some people that make it past it, but most of them be having the buggies man so um, and that's a reason for that man, because we'd be super stressed out right. You got you don't get as much sleep you're, always doing something so yeah, it's a stressful environment. I think enlisted military under E4 is literally like the most stressful job in America. Right, if you Google it or something like that, but don't quote me on it, but that that's why I named it this guy, so yeah. I just didn't, want to leave that out and they're, like oh he's, click baiting or whatever I appreciate y'all. Staying with me. Man holy Snapfish like a whistle it's your boy stream, foreign
