Move over, midlife crises – Gen Z is now battling receding hairlines! 🌍 Professor Liu Ling, a dermatology expert formerly at Xijing Hospital, reveals why middle and high school students are increasingly seeking help for thinning locks.
💡 Pro tip: ‘Shower test your strands!’ Lose more than 10 hairs during a routine rinse? That’s your cue to pay attention, says Liu. Students facing academic stress and young professionals juggling ‘hustle culture’ top the high-risk list.
But there’s hope ahead! Chinese scientists are teaming up globally to decode hair regeneration. ‘The future isn’t hairless,’ Liu assures, hinting at groundbreaking studies that could make combs (and TikTok hair filters) obsolete.
🔬 Bonus intel: While genetics play lead guitar in this biological concert, lifestyle factors like sleep deprivation and screen-time marathons are crashing the party. Time to rethink those 3 AM gaming sessions?
