Skull Expansion Causes Hair Loss: The Hair Loss Industry Has Got it Wrong!
The current theory for hair loss caused by androgenetic alopecia is incorrect.
This page explains how skull bone growth (skull expansion) is the real reason for this condition.
What is Skull Expansion?
Skull expansion involves bone resorption and bone remodelling. These two processes are essential as they are responsible for the growth of your skeleton as you change from child to adult.
Bone resorption and remodelling then continues throughout life in order to maintain a healthy skeleton. For some, this will simply maintain the bones – keeping them strong and healthy. But, for those with hair loss, this process will continue to grow certain bones of the skull.
This is skull expansion, and is the direct cause of androgenetic alopecia for both men and women.
The extent to which you lose hair is depends upon the extent to which your skull grows. Obviously, this means that greater skull expansion will lead to greater loss of hair.
Most people know that androgenetic alopecia is connected to genetics and the hormone dihydrotestosterone (DHT). But hair specialists do not know the actual mechanism in which these two factors are involved.
Other research might tell you that a junk food diet or excess sebum production may also be to blame. And other theories suggest poor scalp circulation and stress will cause this type of hair loss.
However, whilst all these things can influence hair loss, none of them are the underlying cause.
None of these theories can fully answer all of the following questions...
Q1. Why do some people lose hair only from the front of the scalp, others only at the back, and some from both these regions?
Q2. Why does remnant hair sometimes exist last long after baldness has developed? (Remnant hair is strong healthy residual hair that continues to grow normally within the bald area of the scalp despite complete baldness all around it).
Q3. Why is it that hair can fall faster in one region of the scalp than it does in another? (For example, you may experience rapidly receding temples but might lose hair at the back very slowly).
Q4. Why do 20% of men start losing hair at puberty, whilst others don't start until they’re much older?
Q5. During puberty, DHT will stimulate hair to grow (i.e., facial, pubic and body hair). So, how can it be linked to both hair growth and loss?
These are all very significant questions concerning the hair loss process. So it’s vital that complete accurate answers are given before any theory can be recognised as the true cause of androgenetic alopecia. But none of these conventional theories can do this!
Only skull expansion (skull bone growth) can answer all these questions!

This groundbreaking ebook reveals how the hair loss industry got it wrong! Learn more.
A1. If you are developing a bald patch at the back, then this due to parietal bone growth. Receding temples are caused by frontal bone growth. And hair loss at both the front and back is caused by skull expansion of both frontal and parietal bone growth.
A2. Remnant hair sometimes continues to grow in areas within the scalp that remain relatively free from skull expansion.
A3 and A4. Variations in skull shape can account for the different rates of hair loss between the front and back of the scalp (question 3) and why your hair loss could start as early as puberty or much later on in life (question 4).
A5. DHT is a hair growth stimulator and a bone growth stimulator too. This, along with certain other hormones and genetically inherited charactesristics is what causes skull expansion.
Hormones and skull expansion
This section reviews two hormones that affect skull expansion. DHT is the hormone mostly responsible for skull expansion, but others including insulin, thyroid and parathyroid hormones also promote the bone remodelling and resorption process. And, as such, they too can contribute to androgenetic alopecia...
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) - The reason why bodybuilders suffer hair loss!
Androgens such as testosterone and DHT are steroid hormones. This means they have an anabolic effect on both muscle and bone formation. In other words, they make bone grow! This explains why intense weight training has been linked to male pattern baldness.
For bodybuilders, hair loss is an occupational hazard - intense weight training increases DHT production, which will build both muscle and bone.
The entire skeleton can experience new bone growth as a direct result of weight bearing exercises. This means that it’s possible for the rate of bone remodelling to increase in other parts of the body (including the skull) and not just in those areas being exercised (like the arms and legs).
Taking anabolic steroids can also contribute to male pattern baldness. The vast majority of anabolic steroids break down to form DHT at some point. So, by taking them, the rate of muscle and bone growth, and the rate of hair loss, can all increase!
Insulin – Read this and you won't enjoy junk food so much!
Whenever you eat junk food, your blood insulin levels increase (to deal with all that sugar). And if you consume too much junk on a regular basis, over time you could develop insulin resistance and ultimately diabetes. And diabetes has been linked to androgenetic alopecia!
As well as stimulating bone growth, insulin can also influence DHT production. If insulin levels are high, then Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG) levels decrease. SHBG is a glycoprotein that binds to testosterone, preventing it from circulating free in the bloodstream. And since it's this "free" testosterone that gets converted into DHT, if insulin levels can be kept low, then SHBG levels will remain high and so help reduce DHT production.
So, you now know the real reason behind androgenetic alopecia!
