Single Hair = Rapid Results

Our hair tells ALL…..

Hair reacts to signals from the environment that cause our emotions to manifest feelings and it responds to those feelings. For example, when some people feel fear they may notice the hair on their arms and legs to stand up. Hair strands will contain a range of signals/frequencies that have an abundance of epigenetic information. This information is extremely valuable to our daily lives, health, hair growth, hair loss, scalp condition, and overall wellbeing!

Understand Your Hair Loss

Our Hair Follicle Test all starts with four individual hairs from the nape of your head. Those hairs are then processed within 15-20 minutes. Epigenetic reports reflect in a minimum of 30+ pages, potential functionality impacts caused by Environmental Irritants such as Toxins, Electro Magnetic Impacts, Nutritional Diet, Lifestyle and Underlying Food and Gut Stressors. Each report also provides a 90 day nutritional food plan and further advice to optimize wellbeing. This report allows our hair experts to design a treatment regimen tailored to YOU specifically. The regimen may include suggested diet changes, supplements, topicals, medical treatments or a combination of things to give you the optimal hair restoration results.

Autumn Seasonal Hair Loss

Seasonal Hair Loss | Does our hair shed more in the fall?

by

Our four seasons of Hair Loss: Winter, Spring, Summer and Autumn. 

For most of the world, these seasons bring about change outside, whether it in the temperature or other elements in nature.

At times these transformations are welcome, while at other times we wish they’d never take place. Seasonal Hair loss is the latter of those two emotions, similar to the ten inches of rain, constant icing of the roads, or scorching temperatures.

What is it about certain seasons, specifically Spring and Autumn?

Spring & Autumn Hair Loss and what can you do about it?

The sudden struggle of hair loss during spring & autumn has plagued many women for years. Studies have shown that these 2 seasons, more than the others, is a time where even the healthiest of individuals will face the pain of hair loss. This is due the life cycle of the hair follicles.

The typical cycle runs between 2-6 years, throughout there is a large portion that is constantly growing, while a small amount is considered to be ‘resting’, preparing to fall out.

For most women, the resting stage takes place in July, and then just a few months later proceeds to fall out. Although this shedding is noticeable to you, there’s no cause for concern.

Seasonal hair loss is common amongst all mammals, including us humans.

How do you avoid this unique seasonal Hair Loss change? Great question!

We highly recommend that you take the proper precautions to treat your hair. This is only possible if you know your hair and its unique needs as well.

If you’re not sure where to get started, make an appointment to meet with one of our professionals at HPIHair and learn more about your individual hair needs.

Holiday shopping and holiday stress

Holiday Hair Stress

by

The holiday’s can be a very stressful time. Most people are aware that stress can take a toll on your mental well-being, but did you know that stress can also affect your hair? Often times stress and anxiety can cause hair loss, which may induce more stress initiating a vicious cycle.

Hair loss can be a complex issue. Stress and anxiety increase levels of cortisol in the body. The influx of cortisol may cause hormone imbalances and increase skin sebum production. The body’s supplies to maintain healthy hair and growth are diminished.

The American Hair Loss Association states that during this time your body does not supply the hair with the nutrients it needs and tells your hair in the growing and resting phase to shed. The increase in sebum also clogs the pores on the scalp, which obstructs hair growth. Because of this, it is important to maintain a healthy scalp for healthy hair. The hair loss is not an immediate reaction, and often times an individual will not experience hair loss or shedding until 6-12 weeks after the stressful event. In some cases, shedding may not begin until 3-9 months after the event.

 

With the holiday’s approaching, it is important to remember to take time for yourself and decompress–self-care during the holidays is extremely important. Ideas for stress relief include: meditation, yoga, or exercise. Eating a well-balanced diet and getting 7-9 hours of uninterrupted sleep each night can also help ward of stress and hair loss.
