    GlossaryBrittle Hair

    hair that is dry, frizzy, and prone to breakage

    Brittle hair, also known as fragile or weak hair, refers to hair that is dry, frizzy, and prone to breakage. This condition can result from various factors, including excessive heat styling, chemical treatments, environmental stressors, and nutritional deficiencies. Brittle hair lacks moisture and elasticity, making it more susceptible to damage and split ends.

      by ilovebloodborne in General  99 upvotes 10 months ago
      The conversation is about hair loss treatments, specifically oral finasteride (1.2mg) and oral minoxidil (3mg), and the user's concern about increased shedding and brittle hair after 7 months of use. It is suggested that shedding is common and may be influenced by stress, and switching to dutasteride might help, but patience is advised as results can take up to a year.

      A user shared a 5-year hair loss treatment progress, using 1mg oral finasteride daily and 5% minoxidil liquid twice per day, with significant improvement and no side effects.
