Yahoo answers regrowth method

When I first started losing hair I found this on yahoo answers and a couple of other sites. Since I can't find any info on this method anywhere else I figured I'd bring it to a forum where people seem to know what they're talking about when it comes to hair loss. Any thoughts or comments on this method would be appreciated.

I have had many on Answers tell me they have consulted doctors and medical experts and they are often told it's genetic and nothing can be done. It is simply not true. My grandfather, my father, my two younger brothers and a teenage nephew completely, or very nearly lost all of their hair and I too in my teens/twenties suffered severe loss. I stopped loss and virtually regrew all my hair with a simple home treatment and it has helped others on answers. See below ##
A main cause IS SHAMPOOS (and other harmful products we use). An alarming number have countless hair, scalp and even health harming harsh and toxic ingredients. See this site "Skin Deep Database" ( "Skin deep Database: A Feelgood Resource" tells you how best to use the Database) and "Not Just a Pretty Face." In the Database search box enter "Shampoos* "(the asterisk is IMPORTANT) Also enter Nioxin and you will see that it is extremely harmful. You will see many others which are the most harmful and others which are safer or only minimally harming. Then do the same for conditioners, etc.

Testimonial emailed to me from: Mo Satrum (on Answers)
Subject: HAIR LOSS! OMG!
Message: Hi,
"You may remember me, Mo Satrum, the guy with the constant questioning about the hair loss, well I've been doing it for 2 months now and it's working wonders! My hair loss increased the first few weeks but it gradually slowed down and my hair is gradually going back to normal as it were before. I was always told that hair loss was genetic and you could do nothing about it, but you've proved everyone wrong and even I had my doubts before starting your treatment but I cannot describe how much you've turned my life around! Thank you I don't know where I would be without you"

TREATMENT: Massage any pure, natural oil into scalp, Extra virgin olive, coconut and grape seed work well. Then brush vigorously preferably using a palm held brush with short natural boar bristles.(Quite stiff bristles are best) You can see them on Amazon - they are known as military brushes.

Brush entire scalp strongly so you feel it stimulating/irritating scalp. Do 90 /100 strokes each day at beginning building up to more and focus on where loss is. You may be apprehensive about irritating scalp - believe me I was too. But this is what will force new growth as it unplugs the blocked hair ducts that lead to loss - they are the painful small itching spots.
As you brush some shedding and breakage may occur at first but will quickly stop as brushing makes hair better anchored and stronger. New hairs will appear and will be weak looking and sparse at first. Keep up the brushing and do not be concerned if brushing uproots them, as they WILL re-appear even stronger. Then no matter how much you brush they will not be uprooted

My hair completely regrew on crown. Where receded at front regrowth was slower and sparse at first then each month it became denser. It demands perseverance week in/week out to get the same results. But the effort is truly worth it. Mo Satrum and others on answers who followed instructions exactly reported hair had completely regrown in 6 months and better (thicker, stronger growth) results each month after that.

SOURCE(S): Many years research, self experimentation using natural treatments for hair loss, regrowth and cures of skin, scalp and hair disorder

There is a blog post by a woman, referenced somewhere on this forum, where a woman documented hair regrowth with brushing and several photos. It certainly worked for her.

The only issue is - if it actually works for those of us with androgentic hair loss...

I've read that blog too. I doubt normal brushing would help anything besides dandruff if you have mpb. Besides being a natural cleanser, olive oil apparently blocks formation of dht too. I didn't pay much attention to this at first but brushing with olive oil seems almost like oil pulling for your scalp.

i posted something like this a long while back...
theres a tricologist in hawaii that claims to regrow hair by brushing with a boar bristle bush and applying an organic topical he makes
i tried it for about 6 months, it does make the scalp extremely clean
but like most regimen effects, i was turned off by the hair fall
i dunno where my hair would be if i kept up with it along with my current regimen...
i would just like to know if anybody has ever really kept up with boar bristle brushing for longer than 6 months...
