What Causes Men To Go Bald [& How To Encourage New Hair Growth]

For men, it can be very frustrating to realize that we’re going bald. It reminds us that we’re aging. We have worked hard, built our assets, started to create a legacy, but we can’t control this aspect of our appearance. Can’t we do something about it? 

There is hope. 

Why Do Men Go Bald?

What causes men to go bald? Many times, hair loss in men is genetic, but there are other times when it’s caused by clogged hair follicles. In other words, the place where each hair grows from might be clogged by a mixture of: 

  • Natural skin oil
  • Dust or dirt
  • Dead skin
  • Sweat
  • Waxy buildup from hair care products

The good news is that it’s possible—even simple—to remove those clogged materials from your follicles. This may be the hidden cause of thinning hair for you. And even if you have genetic baldness, cleaning your follicles can only improve your current hair growth. 

Can Hair Grow Back After Thinning?

It’s absolutely feasible to regrow hair after it has thinned, because some hair loss is related to temporary stress, medications, or blocked hair follicles. Certain products can stimulate blood circulation around hair follicles or clean foreign materials out (and Fortero products do both). 

If you purchase certain hair growth products, they may not ever reach the roots of your hair. If your hair follicles are clogged, even the most expensive tonic won’t be able to find and nourish the living base of your hair.

Do you want to know how to encourage new hair growth? Here’s the way our Fortero shampoo does it:

  1. It increases blood circulation throughout the scalp and hair follicles—and that’s proven to work through pharmaceutical testing. 
  2. That better circulation strengthens the roots of your hair, improving each new hair as it grows.
  3. Our shampoo also infuses hair with natural Swertia Japonica extract, a traditional remedy.
  4. Carbonic acid in Fortero shampoo attracts and captures any foreign materials in hair follicles and carries them out, leaving follicles cleaner and clearer after each use.

The concentration level of carbonic acid in Fortero is 8,000 ppm (parts per million). That’s far stronger than the 1,000 ppm that is typically used in carbonic acid therapy. You can be sure it’ll clean out dirt and open your follicles by simply applying it as part of your normal shower routine. It’s simple—and even recommended by dermatologists.

Can You Prevent Baldness? And Encourage New Hair Growth?

We have helped both men and women to regrow healthy hair. After hair follicles have been freed from blockages, they effectively become larger, allowing more hair to grow out. The cleaning also releases the strain that those follicles were under, allowing them to get back to the business of growing hair. 

This all means that some baldness can be prevented or slowed down by improving your scalp health with Fortero shampoo. Our products return your ability to naturally grow more and thicker hair. Our conditioner also moisturizes hair follicles with hydrolyzed keratin, ginger root extract, and sugar cane extract to further increase hair growth.

How Do You Know If Your New Hair Is Growing?

If you’re using a recommended regimen to regrow your hair, here’s how you can check if it’s working: 


  • Track the amount of hair you find falling out in the shower. Are you finding less? If so, that’s a good sign that hair loss is slowing.
  • Check your pillows and shirts for hair. Do you find less? 
  • Does your hair look and/or feel thicker? Ask a loved one.
  • Touch your scalp with your fingertips at least once per week. Is there new stubble growing, which could feel like beard stubble?
  • Look for new scalp stubble in a mirror. Also, look for a combination of stubble and areas of longer hair, which can indicate new hair growth.

Can Balding Stop on Its Own?

No, balding doesn’t reverse itself naturally. If you have inherited male pattern baldness, those genes won’t change on their own. And if your hair follicles are blocked by a mix of skin cells, product, and skin oil, they won’t be cleaned out naturally. 


What causes men to go bald? There are several reasons, and you need the right treatment for your type. For genetic baldness, there are drugs that can help to slow down the effects. Some men also use laser therapy to stimulate hair growth, or they undergo hair transplant surgery. 


For blocked follicles, you need a direct application of a specially designed shampoo. Any amount of washing with a regular shampoo won’t reach deep enough into the follicles to release the material plugging them. The great news is that Fortero shampoo and conditioner can only improve your scalp and hair health, no matter the cause of baldness.
