# Avoiding Hair Loss

Try not to stress your hair with beauty treatments or hair dye. Use simple shampoo that works with your hair. Try not to pull out your hair when stressed, or when washing your hair.

Avoid wearing unwashed hats for too long

Take 15 mg of Zinc daily, as well as folate.

If you notice hair loss, act immediately. Ask your doctor about minoxidil. If you have heart problems, don't take the oral version of minoxidil. Use red light therapy to restore follicles.

Another drug that you can use is applying pig oil to the affected bald spot.
