Shocked by your reflection and the ever-receding hairline? You’re certainly not the only man facing this reality and secretly considering a hair transplant. But with the hefty price tag that comes with it, that might not be an immediate solution. Hair loss around the temples can be slowed down, but regrowth is a challenge. In more advanced stages, a hair transplant is definitely an option worth considering. However, maintaining the results takes effort. With Neofollics Hair Growth products, you can get the most out of your transplant. Luckily, there are multiple ways to combat or conceal a receding hairline. Some methods even stimulate new hair growth. We’ll walk you through the best things you can do as a man to tackle the thinning hair around temples.

Receding hairlines: a more advanced sign of male baldness

For some men, hair loss is a sensitive subject, while others confidently opt for the shaved head look. Many from the first group only take action when their hairline has visibly receded, by which time they’re already in a more advanced stage of baldness. This is something that’s very common among men and is a form of hereditary hair loss (androgenetic alopecia). Dermatologists use the Norwood scale to measure baldness in men. This scale consists of 7 stages. By stage three, the receding hairline becomes quite noticeable. That’s probably the phase you're in right now. The signs in stages one and two are much subtler, so it’s no surprise most men only react once they hit stage three.

What you can do about a receding hairline

You might not be able to fully restore that thick head of hair, but with the right scalp care products and a smart haircut, you can certainly slow down the process and disguise a receding hairline quite effectively.

Stimulate hair growth with the right shampoo

Swap out your current shampoo for one that actively stimulates hair growth. The Neofollics Hair Growth Stimulating Shampoo helps combat hair loss by prolonging the hair’s growth phase. Remember: the more follicles in the growth phase, the less hair you’ll shed. For best results, pair the shampoo with Neofollics Hair Growth Stimulating Conditioner. This wash routine can help slow down deepening recession at the temples and delay further baldness, so you can enjoy your existing hair for longer.

Dermaroller

A lesser-known method is using a dermaroller, a small handheld tool with a roller head covered in tiny needles. Don’t worry, applying it to your scalp is painless and causes just a tingling sensation. Use the Neofollics Hair Growth Enhancing Scalp Roller over the thinning area, in your case, likely the temples. Combine it with the Neofollics Hair Growth Stimulating Lotion, which contains nutrients that stimulate hair growth. These are absorbed more effectively after using the dermaroller.

Supplements

Want to maximize your results? Opt for a supplement that supports overall hair health. Products like Neofollics Hair Growth Supporting Tablets contain key nutrients such as zinc, biotin, and selenium. All scientifically proven to aid hair growth. Of course, you can also choose to take the tablets alone, continuing with your regular shampoo while still giving your hair a boost from within.

Hide a receding hairline with a suitable haircut

Or take a completely different approach: if you've accepted that you're gradually going bald but want to keep it under wraps for now, go for a hairstyle that cleverly conceals the temples. Naturally, the style should suit your face shape, so ask your barber what works best for you and how to minimize the appearance of your receding hairline. Here's some inspiration:

• Textured crop
• Buzz cut
• Caesar cut
• Undercut with volume on top

Conclusion

A receding hairline is a frustrating but common issue for many men. Fortunately, a hair transplant isn’t your only option. There are plenty of effective and accessible alternatives to slow hair loss or even stimulate new growth. From hair growth shampoos and conditioners to dermarollers and supplements, there’s no shortage of solutions to take control of your hairline. And if you’d rather disguise it, a sharp haircut can refresh your look and boost your confidence. Bottom line? You’re not alone, and with the right approach, you can tackle your receding hairline smartly and confidently.
