So, today I am in the locker room at the gym and there is a white girl sharing the mirror with me. We both are cleaning up after the workout. I start my usual routine rinse face then noxema.
Before she starts, she puts on a sports head band. I am thinking its to keep her hair out of the way while she washes her face. I comment " I need to get one of those cause my hair sometimes falls into my toothpaste."
She replied, "yea, that too but I mainly use it to protect my hairline in the front and back. I scrub my face to hard and along with bleaching and perms it contributed to my receding hairline. Once the dermatologist told me to start putting a headband over it, my hairline has grown back."
The lightbulb in my head came on as I had been concerned with my own hairline receeding. She was right. My mother always told me scrub my face and I never thought that I was scrubbing the fragile hairs at my forehead and the back of my neck.
I have helped in the receeding with the manipulating from washing my face! So, it really doesn't have to be mentioned that I am off to buy a headband!
Sorry if this is old news but its brand new to me and I thought I would share!

erplexed. I wore a cotton one to workout in 3 times a week and it BROKE off my hairline. I thought it was something I was doing until I retired the headband and the hairline grew back.
? I even noticed that I was getting a burning sensation on the sides of it too, I'll be doing this with a satin scarf.
With cotton balls you can wipe around the hairline without manipulating the hair
