Receding Hairline from Ponytails

Ask a Question

I had a ponytail phase when I was younger and ALWAYS wore my hair in a tight high ponytail. And now I have barely got any hair left in my temples and a very bad hairline to the point I can't put my hair up anymore.

Does anyone know if its possible to regrow hair fast?

I had a similar issue from always wearing a side parting. So I've started having a middle parting and my hair is very slowly growing back but not as this as the other side. I'm hoping it might just need time

ladybugncatnoir have you thought about trying different ways of putting it up which is softer? Such as a hair clip?

I've noticed this in the last few months. I always wear my hair short with a fringe but since lockdown and not having had it cut for ages, it's so long I'm wearing it tied back and it is definitely receding at the temples!!!

Same here, I never used to tie my hair but being at home I do and temples are looking more sparse

Oh that sounds like a good idea! I gotta invest in some good hair clips because all mine break really quickly

A few people I knew who were having thinning hair issues just shaved their head - they were bald/skinhead for a few weeks, but after that, their hair grew back thicker

ladybugncatnoir lol in fairness, the people I know who did it also signed up to raise money for charity - so it made the decision to do it easier
