hey guys you know i was playing lava monster with  my twin daughters and what happens my daughter   looks at the top of my head and she says daddy  there's a big circle on top of your head and i'm   like what me me me me right i am literally i've  got a yarmulke of bald head on me and this is   what it looked like you know i had chickenpox  as a kid actually at 20 years old i had it   and i scratched my head like crazy so i have a ton  of chickenpox scars underneath my hair on my scalp   and i don't want to lose my hair because my hair  is going to look all my scalp is going to look   popped out i started research and i had a friend  that was actually had started to regrow his hair   it took about 14 months for him and he was going  bald and he's like yeah i'm just massaging my head   every day i'm like wow this is amazing how did  you find out about this so i had a podcast with   the guy he found out about it from his name is rob  english you can check that out and i started doing   this myself i started working it right and one  of the things is massage the massages is really   using the fingers like this to push together  you could feel adhesions in there right just   kind of places that were tight and i'd pull on  him and work him and he says even even going   below it will help the blood flow to that area  i had a big bald spot like that i mean crazy so   when you rub we were rubbing just like this but  then my hands started to get sore so i'm like i   don't know if i can keep this up 10 15 minutes a  day because i'm in the office working on people   with these hands like crazy it's like i'm a rock  climber or something so i got this thing on amazon   which i love super cheap and just rubbing on  it like this and that felt good right and i   could do it while i'm driving i could do it in  line at the bank whatever it is right and just   rubbing just kind of becoming a little obsessed  with it but um working it stimulating feeling   aliveness on the top of my head just working  in fact there's a study out of um out of japan   where they just massaged a little massager on one  side of the hair and they found more hair on that   side than the other side so i started working  that and then i got into micro needling right   so the micro needling is is putting tiny holes all  over the scalp it's like aerating your scalp right   so i got one of these rollers but this started  getting really in the hair and it hurts it hurts   like a son of a gun but um it's cheap 20 bucks but  yet the angle it goes into the skull isn't isn't   directly in sometimes it can be a little angled  and the the quality of these does vary a lot   so rob recommended a pen so i got one of these  pens now this thing is oh yeah if you're willing   to suffer for vanity let me tell you this  thing uh it hurts um so he recommends 1.5   millimeters i've been doing it about once every  two weeks check this baby out is that great or   what those needles you can do like 12 needles per  that section or you can do 16 or you can do more   and then you turn this thing on and it's just it's  just coming at you you can do it faster there are   numbers on here and let me tell you you just  oh you could use a topical analgesic it's not a   bad idea but um you gotta cover the whole skull it  takes a good good 10 minutes every week or two but   then i started doing this this is great looks  a little intense while i'm driving but i use it   and this is the power plate the pulse mini and i  just do this too just stimulating the blood flow   getting that hair and let me tell you you guys  here's the before and after check that out it's   actually happening no drugs or anything so you  know i can even show i can even show you guys here   it is look at this i mean it's it's not perfect  but it's way better it's amazing right i there's   no medication now rob english does coaching  and something the other but he and sometimes   he recommends like finasteride or topical or oral  or whatnot but for me it was just the self-care   so i'm gonna keep you all posted because self-care  is high quality hands-on healthcare and get your   hands on yourself get your hands on your head  and let's see if you can grow some hair it   does take time though check out that podcast and  educate yourself before you cry about your hair
