Can Borax Cause Hair Loss?
Posted by Julie (Australia) on 04/22/2017
G'day, I've been on borax for about 9 months now. I just wet my finger and dip it in the borax and that's it for the day. I take it with magnesium. But I've been noticing my hair seems to be really thinning at the front. Can borax send you bald??? At 66 I've still my own brown colour with a few greys. I use sunlight soap as my shampoo and rinse in very diluted vinegar. Any ideas? Maybe it's just old age???

Yes, too much borax/boron may send you bald. Reduce to once a week. hair loss is reversible. mine went patchy, then came back white. not sure if the white will correct. I still use borax as a daily facial, and brush my teeth with it once a week. Can't beat the clean feeling.
