MY OBSERVATIONS & THEORIES

AQBS male patter balding theories
img_491257_edited.png

Here are a few of my theories, observations, and hypothesis regarding reversing Male Acute Follicle Stress syndrome (MAFS). Mainstream science calls it male pattern balding.  They are still a work in progress and will change as I gather more information and data. I am constantly trying to simplify both the process of reversing severe hair loss as well as perfecting the ingredients in my products. Most importantly, my lofty yet foremost objective is to create and define...

"The General Theory of Reversativity."

"SCALP CONDITIONS MUST BE MET & MAINTAINED WHILE TIME CONSIDERATIONS MUST BE KEPT
...TO SECURE GAINS."

THE (6) RE'S OF RESTORATION FRAMEWORK

BTTB-23-Follicle.png

I created the 6 Re's of Restoration" to organize my approach of reversing 10+ years of male pattern balding. Being the typical norwood 7+ (balding on temporalis and eyebrows), which would be considered severe, I knew from research that I had to hypothetically target at least six areas or known factors to Male Acute Follicle Stress Syndrome or MAFS if I were to be successful. The entire premise of "scalp conditions must be met and maintained," are derived from this framework.

HYPOTHESES & THEORIES

BTTB-23-Follicle.png

In my personal fight against androgenetic alopecia aka male pattern balding, I couldn't help but notice patterns, behaviors, and insights that confirmed my prior research into the issue. The flip side is, reversing my decade of balding in real time and documenting my journey, I debunked alot of what I had previously assumed was tried and true.

ALTERNATE VERSION
OF THE 6 RE'S OF RESTORATION

1. PATHOGEN - Need an internal and external cleanse.

2. DHT - Need to be suppressed internally but especially in the scalp.

3. SCALP ATROPHY - Scalp needs stimulation, decompression, and fattened.

4. IMMUNE RESPONSE - Need to neutralize stress signaling and hormones.

5. FOLLICLE REBUILDING - These mini-organs need to rehabilitate and heal.

6. NUTRIO-OXYGENIC - Over supplement internally and topically.

​

This is the simple blueprint of meeting scalp conditions and slowly reversing any severity level (time considerations)of Male Acute Follicle Stress Syndrome or (MAFS). Mainstream science calls men's hair loss within a common pattern, androgenetic alopecia. I am not a geneticist so I can't help that condition. Or hair loss (Thats just a description). But we can definitely heal the scalp and create optimal conditions!

The Gut-Scalp Connection to the Inception of Male Pattern Balding.

The gut stomach scalp connection AQBS

The scalp is almost like an inside out Intestinal tract or stomach with its own villi. Perhaps the biome issue in the gut has made its way to the scalp creating a civil war between the alien biome (pathogens)- may be even demodex, and the follicle and body Immune systems....

THE ALPHA & OMEGA SCALP SPECTRUM HYPOTHESIS

The human scalp seems to perform ideally under the influence of largely estrogenic uterine conditions. My hypothesis is that you have to transition the prostate dominated Alpha scalp to a more follicle friendly feminine Omega scalp environment. Besides the 6 Re's of Restoration, my A&O theory was the greatest contributor to my success in reversing severe baldness and integral to the products and solutions that I created.

DHT: THE ACCESSORY, SCAPEGOAT, & SPECIAL OPS
THEORY

The Gut-Scalp Connection to the Inception of Male Pattern Balding.

Although I am certain that DHT is the main culprit putting the hair follicle into a coma (non-hair producing), I am almost certain that it's actions is to protect the follicle from death via the body's immune system. DHT almost acts as a guard, suppressing the inflammation caused by the pathogen, but not allowing the immune system to literally attack the follicle and cause irreversible damage. In my opinion, its like a double agent. Cutting off the food supply to the biome or pathogen, but reducing the hosted follicles inflammation by the order of the immune system, Although its intentions are good, just by being in the scalp environment -follicles would suffer and anything remotely uterine or estrogenic would too. Hair loss is the outcome.

THE TWO MYTHS OF BALDING AND  FINAL FORM FALLACY. 

Believe me. I also believed the lies. The biggest lies in male pattern balding. The lies that guide almost the entire industry and products that service it. They guide the kitchen herbalist. They rule the laboratories. They sway the bro-scientists like myself. They are both exclaimed and whispered in the sphere and rarely questioned. Ultimately, these myths have the industry by the..... if you get my drift. Yet, both are fairy tales. What are they?

  • Balding is genetic. Therefore, it is inevitable.

  • Balding is your natural final form. Therefore, it is irreversible.

I proved this a fallacy in just 3 months using a dermaroller & oil...

FOLLICLES AS ORGAN'IC 3D
HAIR PRINTERS

The Gut-Scalp Connection to the Inception of Male Pattern Balding.

You can view the follicles as feminine organs desiring to be a part of a group, stressless, estrogenic dominant, and resource heavy, with everyone wanting to produce healthy strong kids (terminal hair). Male Acute Follicle Stress (MAFS) eventually leads them to quasi-organ failure (comatose non-hair producing).

​

You can also view the follicles as 3d Hair Printers needing electricity (neurogenesis). Needing raw material (angiogenesis) or circulation. Instructions aka genes (hair type, etc). Growth signaling hormones. Working hardware ie the 3d printer is in good condition (undamaged follicle)  

​

I view follicles through both of these lenses and act accordingly.

I have worked in the technology trade for almost 20 years and one thing about technology is that it is always evolving, being updated, or reaching its end of life quickly. As more technology erupts from our collective consciousness and AI continues to change the landscape of all industries as quickly as it's dismantling others, we have to be ready and willing to adapt, innovate, and continuously improve our services or products. If I am not reverse engineering someone else's possible solution, I am attempting to improve my own. This will be ongoing and you will benefit from that.

THE GENERAL THEORY

OF REVERSATIVITY

Hamilton-Norwood got it right with their balding profile scale or severity level pictures. Everywhere you go today, you will see various men of all ages and races still fitting into one of the Norwood scales. At the time of this writing, I am slowly moving backwards in time from N7 to N5. This phenomenon amongst a few other peculiar circumstances prompted me to contemplate, "If we bald in a pre-disposed almost synchronous manner, then there is a strong possibility that we can restore our loss with an opposing process." In other words, reverse engineer the steps on how we bald and create a process of restoration that post-counteracts it- A General Theory of Reversativity...

NOTES, SCRIBBLES

& ILLUSTRATIONS

I have seven notebooks of theories, equations, drawings, and thousands of lines of text regarding male pattern balding. These notebooks almost acted as journals or text that assisted me with focusing my efforts on restoration. Check out the pictures and text (if you can read it) that brought you here. Many of these same theories were essential in the creation of Back to the Barber. Browse it and take a look behind the scenes of Natty DIY Scalp Repair.

A WORK IN PROGRESS...

I understand the more that I learn about the body, biology, specifically hair & follicle restoration, the more I learn I know very little. My gift is discipline or may be even just plain stubbornness, but regardless, I am going to figure this thing out eventually. If not, I will get darn close.
