Can Borax Cause Hair Loss?
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.

I just began taking the boron solution of 1 quart water mixed with 1/8 teaspoon borax. I am a 110 pound female. After only drinking one cup of the solution I felt very odd as though I had been poisoned (light headed, heart racing, feeling of slipping out of reality) however these feelings wore off after a few hours. I really wish to continue drinking the solution to heal. I am very concerned it is going to make my hair fall out at such a high dosage. Has anyone experienced this? I attempted to search for comments regarding this issue however couldn't find any. Thank you kindly
