Thinning Hair Types


1. GRADUAL HAIR LOSS

Commonly known as hormonal, progressive or hereditary hair loss.

GRADUAL HAIR LOSS is generally caused by a reduced anagen phase (growth state) in the hair follicle. With on-going gradual degeneration, and each cycle becoming shorter than the one before it, the process culminates with the follicle wearing itself out completely, getting reabsorbed, and disappearing.

In order to fight this type of hair loss, you must PROLONG THE LIFE OF THE ANAGEN PHASE.


2. SUDDEN HAIR LOSS

Also referred to as reactional hair loss.

SUDDEN HAIR LOSS is by large a result of vast numbers of hair follicles entering the telogen (shedding) phase early. 

To treat this type of hair loss, you need to QUICKLY REACTIVATE HAIR GROWTH by triggering a new hair cycle.



1. GRADUAL HAIR LOSS

SPAN:
Usually, it becomes noticeable after 6 or more 
months as hair thins out

SCENE:
Your hair is progressively losing thickness and some areas are thinning more than others.

TRIGGER:
The triggers cannot be identified or are very difficult without the aid of professionals. 

OTHER SYMPTOMS:
Thinning hair is often accompanied by excessive sebum excretion (oily scalp, greasy hair), as well as, a tense and hard moving scalp, another common symptom.


2. SUDDEN HAIR LOSS

SPAN:
Becomes noticeable 2-3 months after a stressful event in your life. You may suddenly notice your hair everywhere: on a pillow, in a sink, etc... 

SCENE:
The hair loss is diffused evenly over the entire head, rather than just isolated areas and patches.

TRIGGER:
The triggers exist and are usually, possible to identify yourself, but not always. Things like: 

  • Seasonal changes
  • Stress, emotional shock
  • Restricted diet or a poor diet
  • Fatigue, overexertion, illness
  • Some medical treatments
  • Chemotherapy

 


LEARN MORE ABOUT HAIR LOSS TYPES

Our hair is constantly renewing itself. A single hair emerges, grows, then falls out, as part of a hair cycle that repeats itself about 25 times during our lifetime and occurs in three stages:

The Anagen Phase

The anagen phase, or growth phase, lasts about 2 to 3 years in men and 6 to 8 years in women. Under normal conditions, about 85% of our hairs are in the anagen phase. During this phase, the vascular network that supplies the hair root is particularly well-developed around the follicle.

The Catagen Phase

The catagen phase, or regression phase, which is fairly brief (2 to 3 weeks), during which the hair follicle becomes inactive. The matrix dies and although the hair does not grow any more, it remains rooted in the follicle.

The Telogen Phase

The telogen phase, when the hair is in its rest phase. The hair is shed and replaced by another hair, whereby a new anagen phase begins. This period of renewal lasts approximately 3 months and explains why we normally lose around 100 hairs every day.


1. GRADUAL HAIR LOSS

POOR CIRCULATION

Blood flow to the scalp is essential for well-balanced hair growth. The micro-circulatory system is what ensures the hair follicle receives the optimal supply of all the elements needed for good hair growth: vitamins (in particular B5, B6, and B8,) trace elements, oxygen, energy (vitamin B3, arginine, etc.,) and amino acids (arginine, methionine, cysteine, etc.) Poor micro-circulation makes hair loss worse.

HYPERSEBORRHEA

A hydrolipidic film made of sebum and sweat protects the surface of the scalp and hair. The sebum secretion is regulated by the hormone testosterone. Too much of this hormone causes over-production of sebum which can make hair loss worse.

RIGIDIFICATION AND INFLAMMATION OF THE DERMIS

Blood flow to the scalp is essential for well-balanced hair growth. The micro-circulatory system is what ensures the hair follicle receives the optimal supply of all the elements needed for good hair growth: vitamins (in particular B5, B6, and B8,) trace elements, oxygen, energy (vitamin B3, arginine, etc.,) and amino acids (arginine, methionine, cysteine, etc.) Poor micro-circulation makes hair loss worse.


2. SUDDEN HAIR LOSS

POOR CIRCULATION

Growth factors are responsible for increasing the blood flow to the hair follicle. This function is essential to regulating hair growth. Poor circulation to the scalp means the hair bulb does not receive the nutrients it needs and results in hair loss.

NUTRITIONAL DEFICIENCY

A deficient blood supply limits the number of nutrients, energy and trace elements that reach the hair, causing it to enter the telogen (shedding) phase too early.


1. GRADUAL HAIR LOSS

VASCULAR CAUSE: poor blood flow to the hair bulb means the hair does not get the essential elements it needs to grow.

HORMONAL CAUSE: hormonal imbalance causes excess sebum production which suffocates the hair.

TISSULAR CAUSE: the tissue surrounding the hair bulb becomes rigid and irritated, shortening the life of the hair.

IS IT POSSIBLE TO SLOW DOWN THIS HAIR LOSS?

In order to slow down gradual hair loss in women, you need to treat these three causes. Each can be responsible for gradual hair loss, alone or in combination with the other two.

However, it is almost impossible to know the exact combination of causes, so the best solution is to treat all three.


2. SUDDEN HAIR LOSS

Sudden hair loss is usually triggered by a specific event and occurs in the following 2-3 months.

The triggering event may be:

  • Seasonal changes
  • Stress, emotional shock
  • Restricted diet or a poor diet
  • Fatigue, overexertion
  • Illness
  • Some medical treatments
  • Chemotherapy

Hormonal imbalance. During pregnancy, estrogen increases drastically (x1000) throughout the whole body. Hair becomes shinier, softer, thicker, and the scalp is drier. About three months after giving birth, estrogen levels plummet. This sudden decrease in hormones causes a massive and simultaneous loss of hair.

The event causes hairs to enter the shedding phase early before completing the growth phase. This type of hair loss mainly affects women.

To treat this type of hair loss, you need to QUICKLY REACTIVATE HAIR GROWTH by triggering a new hair cycle.
