- Old people only can be bald: This is one of the most common myths that we have.
Contrarily to this belief, baldness has been noticed even in young adults who are only 20-30 years old.

- Wearing caps frequently causes hair fall: It may appear as a good news to you if you depend on caps to cover your lustrous crown whenever you go outside.

But, if your cap is dirty, then it can cause infection which, in turn, will accelerate the hair fall.
Therefore, do not forget to clean your cap after removing it.
- Don't use hair gel and spray: When you search about hair loss on the internet, you will get many articles which advise you to stop using hair gel and sprays.
But is it possible if you are fashion cautious? Using such products not leads to the hair loss.
You don't even have to stop shampooing or wash your hair often.
Just ignore these myths because they don't have any scientific reasons.
