I get the strangest "tenderness" in the thinning areas of my temples. I've always had less hair there even as a girl. Occassionally the scalp there gets sore and irritated with an almost "tingling" sensation. Anyone have a clue as to WHY? is it the slow death pangs of more dying temple follicles /images/graemlins/cry3.gif?!?!?! TIA! edited to add I'm a 3c/4a natural & only style with loose buns, no rollers, no heat, minimal combing/brushing, etc.
HELP PLEASE...why is my temple area sore?

I'm not sure why. If you are wearing tight hairstyles that pull the front of your hair, then that could be causing the soreness.

Hey gogo /images/graemlins/wave.gif,
That used to happen to me all the time. I don't know why it happens, but using Nioxin Follicle Booster in conjuction with Profectiv Anti-Thinning Formula has grown back my edges and I no longer suffer from the tenderness or thin temples.

thanks ladies for the input! Ive read a lot of reccommenations for Nioxin. The follicle booster will be my next purchase. I have gotten good results the past couple of days with putting a little almond oil spiked with peppermint e.o. on the temples & gently circular massaging with my Spornette "super looper" brush (which is too soft to use for anything else!) The tenderness/soreness is gone & hope the Nioxin will help fill in the area. (took before pics to chronicle my efforts!) thanks again
