I’m launching long-form, 20–30 minute videos on YouTube. Deep dives. Visual diagrams. Full explanations. Step-by-step breakdowns of the REAL root causes of balding, and how to reverse them. I know I’ve been quieter than usual here in Hair Skool throughout August…But it hasn’t been dull, and it definitely hasn’t been empty. I ’ve been in the lab preparing this new phase of content that will help all of us go deeper, stay focused, and actually understand what we’re doing at the root level. These YouTube videos will expand what’s inside the course and give you more context, clarity, and confidence to stay the path, especially when things feel slow or stuck. The first drop is coming soon. Get ready. We’re taking Hair Skool to the next level. Cheers, Carlos.

I finished my liver cleanse diet, which lasted initially for 9 days, then +3 days. I followed the 3:6:9 Liver detox cleanse by Medical Medium. During this detox, you're only allowed to eat green vegetables and fruits, drink celery juice, smoothies, water and some teas. You're not allowed to eat any fats or salts (so like 80-90% of my usual food stuff was gone). And almost always you need to either boil or steam your foods. I ended up steaming most of my food. Days 1-3: Were initially very tough, because even though it's a transition period, I struggled a lot with the feeling of empty stomach. It was really hard, because I also had cravings, and having to tell myself no each time was difficult. Days 4-6: The most restrictive days of the diet. By day 5, I got used to not eating much and not giving in to any temptations to eat. It was then when I started feeling good and feeling light. The toughest part was eating a shit-ton of salad each day. Days 7-9: By that point, I had gotten used to the diet, and I actually felt pretty amazing. The food was still limited, but I got to drink Liver Rescue Smoothies in the mornings, which were really good (banana + dragonfruit + blueberries). I had a lot of energy, especially in the mornings and I was feeling clear in my head during the day. By this point, cravings had subsided, so even when my mind reached for Burger King, my body didn't feel like I wanted it. The feeling of lightness and clarity were nice. My system wasn't as busy as usual digesting food, so there was more energy for me to exist. During those days, I even performed in a small theater play, and I didn't have much problems with energy, as I was initially concerned. Days 10-12: Were a repeat of days 7-9, but a little looser. I repeated it, because repeating days 7-9 allows you to lose additional weight. I had also gotten used to the empty stomach feeling, so it didn't bother me much. At some points I was considering living like this always, because in the end you start feeling really nice and light. The mental clarity on some days was great, too.

Today I became more aware of how my nervous system went into fight/flight mode (or sympathetic activation, as described in the Hair Symptoms Tracker) What happened was: - I was firstly triggered over a small thing with my girlfriend (which contributed to nervous system tension) - I was then approached my father - I'm not usually scared of him, but sometimes my nervous system feels unease around him, which I can't really explain - I sat down and browsed the internet for plane tickets, with him sitting behind me - During that time, I noticed many different symptoms: - Fear activation, low level unsafety - Tension in my scalp, especially my top hair - I felt watched and judged, as he was sitting behind my back - As we were browsing, I felt like I wanted to go away and just leave him be - Not going away caused my body to have increased tension and energy in my body - a helpless feeling - in the end, this caused me to feel drained and fatigued after this event My father is a good (bald, hehe) man, and I love him. I realize my nervous system reaction is my responsibility, and that he didn't knowingly cause this unease in me -- but regardless of that, I first need to regulate myself. On my own. To feel safe. In my body. This noticing is huge for two reasons: 1) it's something that had always been there, something that I felt unconsciously but were never able to verbally expres 2) I was consciously aware of one of the biggest causes of my hair loss (probably)! I was able to notice the momentary tension in my scalp, my bodily freeze feeling and this fatigue - and I have a system to describe this with! This is definitely getting closer to my balding's root cause!

I'm sure you guys have read through some of the theory parts in this course. There's chronic inflammation and stress, caused by nervous system dysregulation and being in sympathetic activation. Additionally, in the tracker there's a whole tab for "felt judged or watched". I'm starting to think there is one deeper thing that ties it all together; something that explains all these physical reactions; something that stems from a higher level like the mind.. This deeper thing can be an early social trauma. ---- A brief personal observation A couple of days ago, I went out with my friend to play basketball. Suddenly, a guy from university I knew came to play basketball too in this area. I barely knew him and was anxious to talk to him. Initially he didn't notice me, and I just felt anxious, always scanning for him from the corner of my eye (unluckily, he was always playing behind my back under a different hoop). Suddenly, I felt the energy change - it seemed he had noticed me, but whenever I looked at him, he either looked away, or didn't look at me at all. This was very uncomfortable - I went out of my fun flow state with my friend, and went into a weird freeze state. Eventually, I left, but then I had big sensations of heat and fear and feeling watched and judged in me (even though I physically left!) I felt shame for not talking to him, I felt he might think weirdly of me. And these are only external circumstances. Internally I'm feeling panic, scalp tensing up and I feel under scrutiny. Like there's people judging in my walls and I feel constantly unsafe. I feel alert. ----- What I experienced Now, what I experienced was a "social nervous system overload". This was likely triggered by a deeper Even 2 days later (as I'm writing this), I still feel on edge, and I cannot fully feel fear and embarrassment. I'm not panicking because logically I know I'm safe. It's just my body and nervous system feel unsafe in the moment. My thoughts can easily create an unsafe feeling on command and I feel my scalp tighten as I think of being watched and judged for 10 seconds.
