I was inspired by the threads on Papillapower here that mention a special massage technique where you try to open up the tightness in the scalp.

Now, someone there linked to cupping massage, which I thought was the chinese cupping, but it turned out to be cupping the hands.

This got me thinking... At one point a purchased a full cupping kit on eBay, but I never really got into it, even though I still want to learn it, as it seems good for the muscles etc. Could cupping be good for the hair?

So I got on Google and searched, and yes, I found a site in the UK doing cupping which they claimed even cured hair loss in people! Their site is: http://www.manetainhair.com/

Now, the weird thing about this is that they actually do incisions into the scalp. I wrote them about this, and they claim this blood-letting will purge the scalp of accumulated DHT.

Upon doing further research I found this is actually what seems like a muslim method (although I know it's common in other parts of Asia too, just never read about it for hair loss) of blood-letting using cupping, called Hijamah.

Now, it seems like they let a lot of blood and I don't think I would want to try something like that on myself (not really sure about the rationale either, of "trapped" DHT, but they claim massive success), but I kept thinking perhaps NORMAL cupping would be good for hair loss?

It would really pull the entire scalp and massage it, and after applying the suction one could move the cup around on the balding area to loosen up the scalp?

Any thoughts? Anyone tried it?

i had cupping glasses treatment to my back few month ago, the glasses creates vacum which damages the blood vessels and you get Hemorrhage. in order to repair the 'damage' there is increase in bloodflow to the area and new blood vessels creates
... thats why i thoght it would be interesting to try it on scalp, but i think youll have to shave it first - might be a problem for some..
i think youll can benefit form cupping glasses without the blood pulling.
