Bottom layer of hair not growing

2025-09-03 12:56:42
The bottom layer of my hair has stopped growing from 2-3 years it grows only till my ear length which makes my hair length look very thin. This section of hair looks damaged I have trimmed it many times but the length just doesn't grow. Overall I have hairfall and hair thinning issue as well but the bottom layer is ok from the roots but lengths are stuck to ear length since years. What should I do.

I advise you to consult a dermatologist online or in person, share clear pictures, and get a personalized treatment plan. Only after proper evaluation can the right medicines (creams/tablets) be prescribed

The growth of hair is related to hair growth cycle, nothing to do with bottom layer If the hair used to grow previously and now has stopped growing we need to examine it before I can comment on it
