Hairline hair problem
Feb 13^th, 2009 at 4:14am

I'm not sure where this should go.

I've noticed that the hairs along my hairline around my forehead don't grow as long as the rest of the hair, are finer, and are prone to white tips/split ends. What's with that?! I've actually always noticed that they didn't grow as long as the rest of the hair but it's only now that I'm growing out my hair again that I've remembered. I've never noticed the white tips or split ends before.

Maybe these hairs are finer and are breaking before they get a chance to grow (perhaps causing the white tips?)
I have little "baby hairs" around my hairline as well that are finer but they don't break. Maybe you could try giving these hairs extra moisture with oil or conditioners to bolster their strength. Do you take biotin?

I'm 25 and still have "baby hairs" Mine are also very fine and wispy and go all along the edge of my hair line. I thought this is just how normal hair is O.o I don't think I have a growth problem with them, but I ALWAYS have short fine hairs surrounding my hairline, literally my entire life. It could be that your hair just grows that way Wink

It is.

Hair doesn't immediately recognize clear, defined lines of where it's "supposed" to grow and where it isn't. There are always finer, smaller hairs where bigger hair growth begins and ends. It's like this on your head, your face (this is why we pluck our eyebrows) and all over your body.

The only way to have a perfectly clean hairline is with laser removal.

Ah thanks for the explanation. I'm not that desperate though. It's not an issue I'm concerned about when I have it explained that way.
