Women my age keep stopping me to ask what I did to my hair. At 54, my crown is fuller than it was at 44. For a long time I ain't tell a soul. Felt too personal. But I can't keep it to myself no more. ‎ I'm 54. I been relaxing, weaving, and braiding this hair since I was a girl. Then menopause came and took what was left. So trust me when I say it if anybody's head was too far gone, it was mine. If it came back for me, it can come back for you. In my 20’s and 30’s, my hair was my thing. Long, thick, down my back. Ain't never had to think about it. Then I hit my late forties and it started changing on me. ‎ It wasn't coming out in clumps. It was quieter than that. It just stopped growing like it used to. Stopped at my shoulders and wouldn't go no further. My ponytail got thin. My part got wide. And my crown started showing through in the light. So I brought it to my doctor. She barely looked up. Said it's just aging, happens to women our age. My stylist told me the same thing. Just change your part, you'll be fine. So I tried to live with it. ‎ But every year it got worse. The part got a little wider. The crown got a little more bare. And "just aging" started to feel like everybody telling me to give up. I stopped wearing my hair up. A bun showed too much scalp. I started keeping a little powder in my purse to fill in my part. I'd see a picture from a cookout and go straight to my hairline. My girlfriends my age still had they thickness. And I'd be sitting there comparing. One morning I looked in the mirror and thought, when did I get old. So I tried everything they sell us. Biotin. Took it a year. Nothing. Castor oil on my edges every night. Just sat heavy and greasy. Still thinning. Them "menopause hair" gummies off the internet. Broke me out, did nothing for my hair. I even got on the Rogaine. My crown ain't grow, but my shedding got worse the month I stopped. Scared me so bad I never tried it again. I been around long enough to try it all. And my crown just kept on thinning. That's when I started thinking maybe they were right. Maybe this is just what happens. Maybe this is what 50 looks like and I need to make my peace. One night I was taking my wig off before bed. Caught my real hair in the mirror underneath. And I didn't even feel like the same woman no more. So I stopped accepting "just aging." I went and found a Black dermatologist who specializes in our hair loss. First thing she told me this ain't just age. Age don't make your crown go bare while the rest hold on. She said something was shrinking my follicles down. And everything I tried was feeding them instead of stopping it. Wasn't nobody ever told me it could be turned around. So she broke it all the way down for me. She said for years, my estrogen was protecting my hair. Keeping it full. Then menopause come and that estrogen just dropped. ‎ And here go the part wasn't nobody ever told me. Soon as the estrogen drop, a hormone called DHT get the upper hand. It was always in there. My estrogen was just holding it back. Now wasn't nothing holding it back no more. ‎ And child, DHT go straight for the crown. Shrink them follicles down a little more every year. Till they too small to grow a real strand. That's why it was the top of my head. That's where it hit the hardest. ‎ And that's when it clicked. Everything I tried was feeding my hair. Wasn't none of it stopping the thing choking it out. She put it to me real simple. She said the DHT was squeezing my hair shut at the root. Like somebody pinching the bottom of a straw closed. You can keep pouring in the top all you want. But if the bottom is pinched shut, nothing gets through. That's what I was doing. Pouring vitamins in the top, while the bottom stayed squeezed shut. So she put me on a micro-infusion treatment. It's a little tool with tiny needles. You press it gentle along your part and your crown. It gets down past the top of the scalp, where the vitamins never could. And it carries a real DHT blocker straight down to the root. Right where it's being squeezed shut. Not feeding the hair. Stopping the thing choking it. It's called DermDe. I ordered it that night. So she put me on a micro-infusion treatment. She told me something straight: for us, it's worse. All them years of relaxers and tight styles already left our follicles weak. Then menopause and the DHT come along and finish the job. So feeding the hair from the top was never gonna be enough. ‎ It's a little tool with tiny needles. You press it gentle along your part. Them little needles open up tiny holes in the scalp. And through them holes, it carries a real DHT blocker straight down to the root. Right where it's being squeezed shut. Not feeding the hair from the top. Stopping what's choking it down at the bottom. It's called DermDe. I ordered it that night. I'm not gonna lie. The first month I almost stopped. I ain't see nothing and I figured, here we go again. ‎ Then one day there wasn't as much hair in my brush. That was the first thing. ‎ The growth took longer. But one morning I was parting my hair and the part wasn't gaping open like before. I made my husband come look. He ain't know what he was looking at. But I knew. ‎ Then the little hairs came in. All across the top. I'd touch the top of my head all day just to feel them there. ‎ Now I wear my hair down. No powder. No hiding the middle. It took about six months. But I see it. And so does everybody else. My best friend been wearing wigs for years. Gave up on her own hair a long time ago. She watched my crown fill back in for months before she said anything. Then one day she just asked me, real quiet, what I was using. I ain't have to talk her into nothing. Every "menopause hair" product out there is made to feed your hair. But this ain't a feeding problem. It's the DHT choking your follicles shut. And you can feed your hair all day. Till you stop the choking, your crown ain't coming back. I linked DermDe below. Don't let nobody tell you it's "just aging" and you gotta live with it. That's how they get you to give up. Don't waste no more money feeding hair while the real problem keeps choking it. And don't spend one more year hiding your crown. 👉 https://dermde.com/products/hair-regrowth-treatment-kit My only regret is all them years I believed it was just aging. All that time I spent hiding my crown and feeling old. When the whole time, it wasn't aging. It was something I could've stopped. ‎ P.S. Give it about 3 weeks before you judge it. The shedding slows down first. The new growth at your crown takes longer, around month two or three. And take a picture of your part right now, so you got something to look back on. Trust me. You gon want it.
