Experimental evidence supports the hypothesis that Experimental evidence supports the hypothesis that oxidative stress plays a major role in the ageing process . Reactive oxygen species or free radicals are highly reactive molecules that can directly damage cellular structural membranes and proteins inside the hair follicles . The body will have have anti-oxidative enzymes protecting it from free radicals and neutralising them . With age, the production of free radicals increases, while the endogenous defence mechanisms decrease . This imbalance leads to the progressive damage of cellular structures including hair cells . #hair #health #healthylifestyle #holistichealth #holistic #cellular #reactiveoxygenspecies #hairgrowth #ageing #thinhair #finehair #propecia #minoxidil #finasteride #alopecia #men #women #holisticlife #enzymes #healthier #hairlosssolution #hairlosshelp

Bubble hair is an acquired hair shaft defect in wh Bubble hair is an acquired hair shaft defect in which air bubbles form inside the hair . The bubbles are produced by heating wet hair sufficiently to cause any water that has seeped into the cortex(the bit underneath the outer layer of the hair shaft)to boil and produce steam . The hair usually presents with a brittle texture, it may also break easily and become straight and stiff . Avoiding the use of curling tongs, especially on wet hair, may assist with recovery alongside using a cooler setting on your hair dryer . . #bubble #bubblehair #hairhealth #healthyhair #hairloss #hairbreakage #brokenhair #hairtexture #finehair #curlyhair #lovehair #health #alopecia #hairgrowthjourney #hairgrowth #hairfall #men #women #holistichealth #lifestyle #nutrition #healthier #femalehairloss #perthhealth #healthperth

DUPA is short for the term diffuse unpatterned alo DUPA is short for the term diffuse unpatterned alopecia . DUPA usually presents itself on the sides and the back of the head at first, unlike male and female pattern hair loss, which typically occurs at the hairline, top of the scalp and the crown . DUPA can sometimes visually mimic male/female pattern hair loss at first glance, but it soon differentiates itself by its widespread distribution of hair loss throughout the scalp . DUPA causes the hair follicles to miniaturise where the hair follicles shrink to the point that they can no longer produce healthy hair . #hairloss #malepatternbaldness #femalepatternbaldness #alopecia #thinninghair #finehair #hairgrowth #women #men #hairhealth #healthyhair #femalehairloss #malehairloss #hairlosssolution #hairlosstreatments #hairlosshelp #hairlossspecialist #hairgrowthproducts #hairgrowthjourney #hairgrowthserum #health #lifestyle #environment #nutrition #nutritional #scalphealth #perthhair #hairperth
There is no doubt that a normal complement of the There is no doubt that a normal complement of the correct minerals reduces the uptake of toxic heavy metals . Heavy Metal Toxicity can have a profound impact on the growth of your hair because of the nutrients they displace . We know Iron, Zinc, selenium etc are essential for healthy hair growth, however do you know what heavy metals displace them? . Heavy metals Copper, Aluminium and Mercury are antagonistic to both Iron and Zinc. Selenium can be displaced by Cadmium, Mercury, Arsenic, Aluminium and Antimony . If you have problems with growing healthy hair and your current protocol is giving you limited results it’s a good idea to complete some tests for heavy metal exposure . This can be done through blood testing or Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis . But remember a a hair tissue sample reflects the bio chemistry of the tissues, so don’t expect to get the same information from a blood test. A blood test is like stopping a courier in the street and having a look in his van. That single observation tells you very little about the warehouses he’s collected from or the businesses he’s about to deliver to. The biochemistry occurs in the tissues not the blood stream . . . #heavymetal #metals #toxic #toxicity #health #holistichealth #hairloss #thinhair #hairgrowth #finehair #alopecia #copper #aluminum #arsenic #lifestyle #hairlosssolution #hairlosshelp #hairgrowthjourney #hair #hairfall #femalehairloss #malehairloss #female #male #perthealth #perthhair #heavymetaldetox

You know lack of sleep can make you grumpy and fog You know lack of sleep can make you grumpy and foggy. You may not know what it can do to your hair health, memory, overall health, looks, and even ability to lose weight . Insufficient amounts of sleep have been shown to have significant negative consequences on the body, which can lead directly and indirectly to conditions of hair loss and thinning hair . The body also undergoes numerous cycles during sleep, which promote the stem cell activity that generates epithelial cells for hair growth . Repeated disruption of the sleep cycle can impair these biological actions which occur inside the follicle which may lead to hair that doesn’t grow correctly . Remember hair in non essential and your body will prioritise where it sends energy and information too when a stressor such as poor sleep is occurring. . . #perthhair #perthhair #hairhealth #healthierhair #health #sleep #circadianrhythm #thinhair #finehair #hairfall #hairloss #thinninghair #male #female #stress #stressful #healthy #lifestyle #holistichealth #holistichealing #alopecia #perthhealth
Accutane is a powerful drug used in the treatment Accutane is a powerful drug used in the treatment of acne . Accutane belongs to a group of medicines known as retinoids, which are derivatives of vitamin A. When you take Accutane by mouth it works by reducing the production of the skin's natural oil (sebum) . A healthy hair follicle requires a functioning sebaceous gland, however unfortunately the medication cannot cherry pick which follicles it chooses to stop producing oil - so you can pretty much expect to see some changes in your scalp hair . The structure and behaviour of the hair may change alongside visual differences such as dryness, brittleness and unruliness. This may be followed with thinning of hair . Permanent changes to the hair can occur with high doses and prolonged periods of being medicated . . #roaccutane #accutane #hair #perthhair #hairperth #hairloss #pharmaceuticals #medications #hairgrowth #thinhair #finehair #healthierhair #hairhealth #scalphealth #healthyscalp #sebum #oil #thehairphysio #acne #acnetreatment #lifestyle #nutrition #spots #naturalhairgrowth #happyhair #happyhairday

Selenium is a major nutrient that helps the body f Selenium is a major nutrient that helps the body fight diseases. It has tons of benefits, since it is also an antioxidant and plays a role in keeping the metabolic functions of the body. Additionally, it helps support healthy function of several organs . Selenium is also needed for healthy hair growth . So how does selenium help with hair growth? . Enzymes are molecules, used for different chemical reactions of the body. Many enzymes use selenium to do their work for them, which makes them more reactive. Some enzymes help the body clean itself from free radicals. These guys are very harmful to the healthy growth of hair and skin cells of the body since they play a major factor in premature aging and weaker hair follicles. Selenium works for healthy hair growth by killing free radicals . Selenium is more concentrated in the thyroid than in our other organs and is important for the proper functioning of our thyroid hormone. This hormone in turn plays a huge role in regulating hair growth and your metabolism. . Selenium also activates an enzyme important for the regeneration of important antioxidants in the body, such as vitamin C . In addition to all these benefits, selenium sulfide is used topically to treat dandruff, which is why it’s often an ingredient in anti-dandruff shampoos.😊 . #perthhair #hairperth #thinhair #finehair #hairgrowth #hairloss #lifestyle #healthy #nutrition #antioxidants #antioxidant #selenium #vitaminc #vitamins #minerals #scalp #skinhealth #alopecia #holistic #holistichealing #healthyhair #healthyscalp #trichology #trichologist #thehairphysio
Trichodynia, or “hair pain,” is defined as pai Trichodynia, or “hair pain,” is defined as pain while touching the hair . Quite often on clinical examination the scalp looks perfectly healthy and there are no obvious signs of injury or damage. The cause of trichodynia is not known, but it is suggested to be of multifactorial origin, which includes micro inflammation in the follicle . Trichodynia may also correlate with emotional upset and may be present with hair loss problems such as active telogen effluvium, male and female pattern hair loss, alopecia areata, folliculitis decalvans and frontal fibrosing alopecia. . . . #scalp #pain #hairloss #hairlosssolution #hairgrowth #thinhair #alopecia #healthyhair #healthyscalp #health #nutrition #holistic #follicles #healthy #life #skin #skinhealth #inflammation #nutritional #hairhealth #scalphealth #hair #scalpmassage

Mitochondria are important organelles found in eve Mitochondria are important organelles found in every cell of the body and are often called ‘ the powerhouse!’ of the cell . Wrinkled skin and hair loss are obvious features of aging-associated changes in humans and mitochondrial disfunction has been associated with these . There’s no denying that hair cells are hungry hippos and they not only require the correct balance of nutrients, amino acids and environment to grow, but they also require power - remember they’re the second fastest growing cells in the body . Providing energy to your hair follicles often comes in the form of light therapy. Cold lasers flood the scalp with red light with penetrates the follicles at a certain wavelength . Don’t be fooled into thinking more lasers mean better results - this isn’t the case. The dosage of each laser is the important element . You may have a device with 300 lasers, but if they don’t provide the correct dose, often per cm2, then your results may be sub optimal . #lllt #redlight #therapeutic #holistichealth #holistic #mitochondria #energy #cells #powerhouse #hairgrowth #hairloss #hairlosssolution #healthyhair #healthyscalp #men #women #thinhair #finehair #cosmetics #nosideeffects #holistichealing #dosage #wavelength
Did you know that your hair ages just like the res Did you know that your hair ages just like the rest of the body - in fact it most likely ages much faster because it’s non essential . Hair is made of many protein strands. A single hair has a normal life between 2 and 7 years. That hair then falls out and is replaced with a new hair . Nearly everyone has some hair loss with aging. The rate of hair growth also slows . Hair strands become smaller and have less pigment. So the thick hair of a young adult eventually becomes thin, fine, light-colored hair. Many hair follicles stop producing new hairs . Just like with the skin you can slow the signs of hair ageing too, so you too can have a good head of hair when you’re 70! . . . #ageing #hair #hairhealth #health #healthier #hairloss #hairgrowth #thinhair #life #cosmetic #hairfall #genes #genetics #epigenetics #antiageing #diet #omega3 #antioxidants #hairlosstreatment #hairlosshelp #holistichealth #holistic

Although the hair loss itself does not cause a functional problem, it is visually an important part of the outer appearance in both women and men .
