You’ve swapped the ramen for gourmet, and instead of happy hour after work, you’re helping your kids with their homework, so let’s face it, you’re getting older. Luckily for you, getting older is not what it used to be: 40 is the new 30, and that “silver fox” look is totally in. Unfortunately for you, however, your hairline seems to be racing your ego to the nape of your neck – and your ego is losing.
There are many at-home remedies for hair-loss, and some of them seem, well, pretty silly.  While we are no longer brushing our hair like Marcia Brady, and we aren’t scared that fungus will grow in our scalp if we sleep with wet hair, we do still partake in peculiar activities when we’re pressured by our hair loss.

One of the newer “old wives tales” is also one of the most prevalent ones: standing on your head cures hair loss. The science behind it seems simple and logical enough – the reason your hair is falling out is because of a little natural force called gravity. Since it’s just so hard for your blood to reach your scalp, then your hair growth is stalled.

By standing on your head (or for the more athletically-challenged like me, by lying on your bed and letting your head hang off the side), blood will reach your scalp and stimulate hair growth. If you do this for 30 seconds each and every day you’ll look like Fabio in no time, right?

Wrong. So let’s just de-bunk this myth once and for all; if your blood wasn’t sufficiently supplying your follicles enough life-juice for your hair to grow, your biggest problem would not be your receding hairline – the issue would be that you would have to figure out arrangements for your own funeral, because without enough blood supply to your head, well, to put it grimly, you’d need one.
