Re: Goosebumps in your hair?
Hi NELLIE! Welcome back. :hugs:
I get this tingly/goosebump feeling in my hair sometimes! It's definitely anxiety or heightened awareness or something - as soon as I read your post i got the goosebump feeling all across the top of my head!
I don't find it an unpleasant sensation and I don't worry about it or question it, just always assumed it was an anxiety/nerve thing... just to let you know you're not alone

Re: Goosebumps in your hair?
I have this feeling, it is almost definetley part of the whole anxiety reactionary sympton responces. I used to get it a lot when I have been under a lot of stress, and funnily enough I also get it when I have not been regualr to the toilet. I don't think these are connected. :)

Re: Goosebumps in your hair?
No goosebumps were designed when our ancestors had hair all over their bodies and were designed to push your hair up and out to let air in to cool you down.In most young mammals the growth phase occurs in a wave like pattern across the skin surface.

Re: Goosebumps in your hair?
OH thank you for posting this! I have been on Xanax ever since 2008 and have panic and anxiety and over the last few years I have noticed tingling goosebump sensations on my brain/scalp. I am so glad to find out I am not alone. I notice when I am sexually aroused or pleased or happy it occurrs on the right side and if I am in pain or irritated or worried it occurs on the left. My theory is it has something to do with right brain/left brain type things like Art vs. Math.
Re: Goosebumps in your hair?
I had this almost every day 10 years ago..In my case it was from tension in neck and shoulders. When I get tension these days same thing happens.
Re: Goosebumps in your hair?
I always get this when I go from outside to indoors if it's been cold outside.
