Hair loss is traumatic for many people, both men and women.
The statistics are high and it is taken fairly seriously by the medical field even though it is hardly a life threatening issue.

On the lighter side, these ancient Egyptian traditional hair loss remedies are pretty funny now but I bet they were cutting edge and before their time in many ways.

Lettuce leaves which were associated with the god of virility, Min, was applied to the bald spots.

Fir Tree extracts were also used with scalp massage to induce hair growth in bald areas.

The social norm was that thick hair was best so many tried to improve what they had or didn’t have naturally, with wigs made of both human hair and sheep wool.
