Want strong hair and healthy growth? One of your focuses besides drinking loads of water, exercising & boosting your nutrition should be to maximize the health of your scalp. We've talked in length about the actions needed to address scalp issues. But we've never went into detail about strengthening the scalp itself.
As you already know, every day that passes contributes the the atrophy of our muscles if we aren't proactive. Some of you are taking deliberate action to maintain muscle mass with resistance exercises. The good news is that it's pretty easy to strengthen + tone our arms, legs and abs. Unfortunately, some of our other muscles are a bit more obscure. Rarely do we think about doing facial exercises and we never consider our scalp muscles.
Yes, that's right. When was the last time you exercised your scalp? What would happen if you could activate the muscles that are directly related to your hair growth? I'll tell you what would happen. Blood flow to that area would increase by nearly 10X. That type of blood flow is real valuable. Which is why I'm putting it on my bucket list to learn how to do scalp contraction exercises. Not only do these movements directly benefit hair growth but, as an added benefit, you'll also enjoy a firmer toned forehead and a lifted upper facial area.
The bad news is that moving our scalp muscles isn't all that easy. If it were, we'd be doing them every day. These muscles are underdeveloped and underutilized so finding them and working them takes a bit of practice. I still don't quite know how to do it, but I'm confident that trying it every day will bring progress. AND I know that by practicing, I'll stimulate my scalp which is always a good thing.
P.S. If you're one of those people who can do this on the first try. Congratulations, you have achieved unicorn status, consider yourself one of the chosen few.
People who are really good at it can move their entire scalp without the use of their hands.
