Re: Hair Loss - Acid Diet

The longest my hair has ever been is belong the
crook of my knees. I like to keep it at hip
level because I do not like sitting on a toilet
and having it hit the floor, and laying on your
hair when sleeping will cause you to wake when
you go to roll over and your hair is stuck under
your hip. I also like to get my hair trimmed on
the new moon. I used to date a hairdresser who
loved to cut it every two weeks. I hear what you
are saying about cutting hair but certainly,
perhaps some of us do not have a limit and if
we did not cut our hair, it would continue to
grow until it swept along the ground.

What has worked for me, besides probably good
hair genes, is using boar bristle brushes. I
have a collection of brushes and all of them
are boar bristle only. The bristles warm up and
distribute the hair's oil from the scalp down.
I only shampoo my hair every other day and will
often "oil" my hair and cover it with a plastic
disposable cap and allow it to soak in for a
few hours. I like coconut or emu oil for this
especially. I also never blow dry my hair. Perhaps
once or twice a year at most, if I need to go out
before it is dry, I will use a blow dryer just to
take the chill off of my hair.

I also have experienced hairloss. The times I have
lost hair, it has been while I was doing extensive
fasting. I did this cycle for 3 years and each time
my hair regrew and the hair in my brush finally
stopping showing. It was distressful, but I also
decided it had to be a part of the healing process.
I feel it has been the mercury in my body which
was the main factor in my hairloss. The second year
of fasting, I added liquid minerals and vitamins and
it did not make a difference. I finally decided it
was not what I was taking in, but what was coming
out, toxins, which caused the hairfall. I think
using things like clay, has assisted in the detoxing.
I still use iodine, Lugol's, which will also help
the mercury slowly detox. I have tried to find more
info to validate my own findings but since each of
us is unique, it seems studies of this sort are not
a dime a dozen. Still, I can say, cutting the hair,
for me, has only kept my hair looking healthy and
of course, kept it from becoming a dust bunny trap.

I think also, circulation is important. Self massage
of the scalp is helpful, as is brushing for brushing's
sake which involves stimulating the scalp and unclogging
pores which keeps the flow of oil moving and not stuck.
Of course, diet probably does play a factor, as does
sunshine and hairstyle. I do braid my hair but do limit
the stressors of rubber bands or hair clips.

Best wishes,
Zoe
