Is it true that after shaving the hair is thicker and thicker grow?

On one of the women's forums girl complained to the problem of rare and sparse hair on his head. And for good soup I asked who currently nalyso shaved head, the hair grew thicker and thicker.

At first I thought it was some kind of stuffing, a man just kidding. But no, she was seriously going to go to such measures. He argued this by saying that it is impossible to shave his mustache on the face and on the legs and armpits if you regularly shave their hair - they become dense.

Whether this is true or a myth?

Well, of course, a myth! Decide what hair grow on our bodies, only the hair follicle. This is such a "bag", which is located in the deep layers of the skin (dermis). This bag is the hair root, which is powered and gives rise to the hair shaft.

The number of hair follicles on our body are strictly programmed even during fetal life. They do not care what happens to the hair shaft, which has already gone beyond the boundaries of the skin: sbreyut this part or sostrigut - does not matter.

Vellus or terminal (

the very black and thick) Hair, which of them will continue to grow - it's up to the hair follicle. However, his decision to affect hormones. If suddenly the girl appeared mustache - a good reason to go to the endocrinologist and to hand over analyzes on hormones.

Vellus hair turns into a terminal in girls due to hormonal (high testosterone) failure. It also happens that the terminal switches to vellus hair because of elevated levels of dihydrotestosterone, mostly men, and they are confused with hereditary hair loss.

That's all. The hair follicle and hormones decide what and where should grow thicker, denser, or vice versa.

The shaver will not make your mustache, hair on the legs, head or armpit leaves.

Simply germinating short hair create an effect of thick hair, but the visual effect immediately disappears with increasing length of the hair. The only difference between the primary hair and those who shaved - in tips. We re-grown hair tips look a little different, but not attached to the effect of thick and healthy hair.

I'll just be glad that is written above is known to many. However, there are those who really believe in the fact that if to shave off his mustache, then they will become thicker. That's bullshit. If the girl has appeared mustache, then I repeat - in the first place it is necessary to hand over analyzes on hormones. Then at will: continue to shave (just fraught with irritation) or make a photoepilation. And someone who likes your hair, that's their business.

Put a "thumbs up" if you want more interesting materials for make-up, manicure, personal care and skin of the face!
