The stress hormone cortisol, is known to affect th

The stress hormone cortisol, is known to affect the function and cyclic regulation of the hair follicle
.
When cortisol is present at high and chronic levels for long periods, it has been demonstrated to reduce modulators leading to degradation of the hair follicle
.
One of the main triggers that tells the body to release cortisol is stress
.
One of the best ways of reducing stress levels is by making lifestyle changes. You can actually reverse the unhealthy relationship between your hormones and hair loss!

Lipids are molecules that contain hydrocarbons and make up the building blocks of the and function of living cells
.
Examples of lipids includes fats, certain vitamins such as A, D, E and K, hormones and most of the cell membrane that is not made of protein
.
Lipids are your scalps natural fats. They are essential and play a crucial role in maintaining the strength of the skins protective barrier, retaining moisture, aids in repairing and keeps dirt and impurities out
.
There are many types of lipids, however cholesterol is one of the most important for hair and scalp
.
Cholesterol plays an important roles in hair biology and has long been suspected of influencing hair growth. Altered cholesterol homeostasis has been reported to have be involved in primary scarring alopecia, mutations in cholesterol transporters are associated with congenital hypertrichosis (excessive hair growth), and dislipidaemia has been linked to androgenic alopecia
.
Good sources of healthy fats are, whole eggs, full fat dairy such as cheese, yoghurt and cream, animal fats, such as butter, ghee, lard, suet and dripping

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!

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.

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

Just like facial acne, there are a number of reaso

Just like facial acne, there are a number of reasons why acne pops up on your scalp: stress, hormonal balances, certain foods, and abnormal immune responses can all be contributing factors. Often oil-based products like heavy pomades can cause clogging of the pores or glands, which makes washing (and styling) your hair with the right products even more important
.
Pimples occur when pores, or hair follicles, get clogged. This can occur when dead skin cells, naturally occurring oil that keeps the skin moisturized (sebum), and bacteria enter the pores. The cells cannot exit the pore, which results in acne in a variety of forms. More severe forms of acne contain more bacteria

Has the behaviour of your hair changed recently an

Has the behaviour of your hair changed recently and you can’t quite put your finger on why?
.
Although the hair fibre above the scalp is technically dead, underneath the scalp there is a hive of activity happening and your hair strands are very much alive, recording information as they pass through the dermis layer of the skin
.
Changes in the way the hair behaves can be due to mechanical or chemical reasons, however it can also be the first outwardly sign you may be in the early stages of male/female pattern hair loss. As your hair follicle function alters and miniaturisation occurs, you can expect to see differences in the way the hair looks and acts. You may find, your blow-dry or hair cut don’t last as long as they used to, or they texture changes
.
It can take a long time for a patterned or un-patterned hair loss to manifest itself on the scalp to the point where you can see the skin - and by this point you’ve usually spent hundreds on shampoos, conditioners or lotions trying to find a solution - some even go the extreme of changing their hairdresser
.
If you’re experiencing behaviour changes then visit a Certified Trichologist for a scalp examination to rule out follicle changes that can lead to diminished hair growth

Your skin is shed and replaced constantly, includi

Your skin is shed and replaced constantly, including the skin on your scalp. Dead skin is washed away when you bathe and rubbed off by your clothes. On your scalp it is removed when you shampoo, so you usually don’t notice it. Scalp skin shedding becomes noticeable when there is an imbalance of bacteria on your scalp, or if you aren’t washing your hair frequently enough
.
Our skin is covered in millions of micro-organisms – otherwise known as bacteria, germs or ‘skin flora’. Your skin secretions, sweat and sebum, usually form a protective layer that prevents bacteria from multiplying on your scalp. However, factors such as illness, stress, diet and hormonal fluctuations can disrupt this barrier, allow bacteria to multiply and this can lead to excessive shedding of your scalp skin, or ‘dandruff flakes'

Clearly healthy hair requires plenty of keratin, a

Clearly healthy hair requires plenty of keratin, and to a lesser extent collagen. For the body to produce these structural proteins, it must have sufficient access to certain amino acids
.
There are two key amino acids necessary to produce keratin: cysteine and lysine, collagen production relies on access to the amino acids lysine, glycine and proline
.
Of these amino acids, lysine is classed as essential, meaning that it must be sourced from our diet. The other important amino acids for healthy hair growth can be synthesised by the body, although they may be in low concentrations, if your diet is poor
.
Through boosting the availability of key amino acids involved in the production of keratin and collagen, it's possible to stimulate new hair growth

For many females our hair is a symbol of our femin

For many females our hair is a symbol of our femininity and both changes in the way it looks and feels can kickstart many emotions
.

Your hair growing cycle has a built in rhythm of activity that results in regeneration of new hairs and shedding of the old ones. This rhythm is naturally occurring, although it can be influenced by hormones or other systemic factors
.

Oestrogen is a hair friendly nurturing hormone and may lengthen the growing cycle and increase the stimulatory effect, leading to thicker terminal hairs - pregnant women are an example of this and will often experience better looking hair due to the enhanced supply of Oestrogen
.

As women age it’s normal for our Oestrogen to decline. This may translate through to scalp hairs as slower growth, finer hairs and behavioural changes - all things that when caught early can be managed
.

Oestrogen requires help from enzymes to be built. Enzymes depend on various nutrients such as vitamin D, A and E, Magnesium, B Vitamins and Selenium. All of which are important for hair growth

The endocrine system is a collection of glands tha

The endocrine system is a collection of glands that produce hormones and regulate metabolism, growth, development and tissue function
.
In humans the major endocrine glands are the thyroid gland and the adrenal gland
.
Hair loss may accompany several endocrine disorders, including hypo/hyperthyroidism, PCOS, Cushing Syndrome or Addisons Disease
.
Most typically an under or overactive thyroid will cause diffuse scalp hair loss, as will the adrenal glands producing high levels of cortisol, however with autoimmune cases the hair loss may mimic female pattern hair loss
.
The adrenal glands also produce the hormone DHEA. In both Men and women the sex hormones oestrogen and testosterone depend on DHEA
.
High levels of DHEA in females can trigger miniaturisation of the scalp hairs. This may present as a receding front hair line, widening of the parting or a loss of thickness on the crown area
.
As with all hormones your body uses cholesterol to make DHEA. Your body makes cholesterol naturally, however a diet rich in butter, eggs, tallow and lard can boost your cholesterol giving you the materials needed to produce hormones. Also make sure you get enough sleep and exercise regularly

The scalp is a complex area and pain and discomfor

The scalp is a complex area and pain and discomfort can occur for many reasons
.
We have a network of nerves under the scalp which provide signals to keep everything working correctly
.
Most cases of scalp pain can be attributed to causes that put direct pressure or tension on the scalp. However, there are also medical issues that can affect the nerves and blood vessels of the scalp and these can lead to debilitating scalp pain or burning
.
Medical causes of scalp pain may include; Neurological causes such as headaches and neuralgia or autoimmune conditions that can cause inflammation of the nerves and vessels which may result in scalp pain
.
Nerves can also be affected by viruses
.
Scalp pain can also be particularly worse if you’re also suffering from a hair loss condition
.
Please consult with a professional if you have prolonged scalp discomfort.

Your digestive tract holds an important connection

Your digestive tract holds an important connection between the body’s internal and external environment
.
The digestive tract is home to a complex and diverse ecosystem: the gut microbiome
.
The delicate relationship of the surrounding nervous system connects the digestive system to many other body systems including hair
.
Poor gut health may cause malabsorption, weakened immunity and an increase chronic metabolic conditions and inflammation - all of these can impact the hair growing cycle to a degree leading to compromised hair health
.
A healthy hair fibre is reliant on amino acid metabolism and correct micro nutrient breakdown in the digestive tract by digestive enzymes and the assistance of the microbiome

Most often beta blockers are a treatment for heart conditions
.
They may cause hair shedding in some people and overall poor hair growth due to disrupting the hair growing cycle for prolonged periods of time
.
This may start as an increase in daily hair loss within the first couple of months of beginning the drug
.
Your hair growing cycle usually returns to normal once the pharmaceutical is stopped
