National Hair Loss Month

August is National Hair Loss Month, an event that aims to raise awareness around the causes and solutions to a condition that affects millions of people each year. According to research, 70 per cent of women over the age of 70 experience female-pattern baldness, while male patterned baldness affects around half of all men by the age of 50, typically starting in the late twenties to early thirties.

The knowledge of trichology (science related to hair) is poorly understood whilst problems related to hair including receding hairline, postmenopausal thinning and other hair disorders remain a major concern to all adults. We know that the psychological impact of losing one’s hair can be enormous as this can be seen as a symptom of lost youth or looking unattractive whereas healthy hair and scalp gives confidence.

Hair loss can be the result of a number of lifestyle factors, ranging from diet to stress

Hair Tomorrow Book - Hard BackAccording to Ravi Bhanot, Research Pharmacist and Alternative Health Practitioner and also co-founder of The Ayurveda Institute of Europe, has researched centuries old theories as well as new western research in bringing a new holistic approach to keeping our hair for longer. There is increasing evidence that complementary and alternative medicine play an important role in the management of many conditions and its use has remarkably increased in the UK over the last 20 years

“Your body views hair as non-essential to survival, so it is the first thing to take a hit when your general health, lifestyle and or diet is not up to scratch,” 

What are the different types of hair loss?

There are many types of hair loss or alopecia and they affect men, women, and children. Male baldness is by far the most common with over 90% cases being these. The problem has become more significant in women too. Hair loss can have several causes and underlying reasons. The types of baldness/hair thinning or hair loss are: (identify yours)
1. Male Pattern Baldness (Alopecia Androgentica)         2. Alopecia Areata- loss of hair in some areas only
3. Alopecia Totalis & Universalis                                         4. Traction Alopecia
5. Diffuse Alopecia                                                                  6. Cicatricial Alopecia
7. Alopecia Senilis                                                                   8. Alopecia Adnata
9. Alopecia Follicularis                                                          10. Alopecia Neurotica
11. Trichotillomania

One of the most common types of hair loss in men and women is androgenic alopecia or reduced hair volume. “This is a slow, gradual and progressive reduction in hair density where hair follicles become smaller, and hairs become finer with each hair growth cycle,” she says, adding it is often simply down to genes.
It is seen in males and females of all ages and races although younger people are more affected. Although this type of hair loss is seen more on the scalp, it can occur in other parts of the body. Onset most often begins in childhood. It can be psychologically devastating. It is not life-threatening though. In Alopecia Areata the hair follicles grow so slowly that the hair is not seen above the scalp. The follicles can grow again with the right nurturing

Nutrigro natural products for healthy hair. No mistakes, no hair problems

Coolherbals highly recommends paraben-free shampoos and conditioner from its world-renowned Nutrigro Range of Hair products

Use the 3 products together for healthy hair and healthy follicles.

The Coolherbals Nutrigro® Serum, Shampoo and Conditioner Set contains:

  • Coolherbals Nutrigro Serum
  • Coolherbals Nutrigro Shampoo
  • Coolherbals Nutrigro Conditioner

Nutrigro Serum is designed to be used daily on the scalp. Scientifically formulated, it contains botanical complexes, which keep the hair rigid and break resistant and help to clear the build-up of dead cells around the follicles allowing the growth of existing hair. The formulation is rich in vitamins and minerals to help maintain the growth of existing hair.

The sugar beet Betaine in the Serum is believed to improve the production of collagen making the hair bulb stronger. Betaine also increases the production of energy molecules. The extra energy helps the hair function better during the growth (Anagen) phase of the hair.

The Fruit extracts help clear dead cells around the follicles. The acidic nature of the fruits makes the perfect environment to keep the hair proteins rigid and breakage resistant.

Visnadine present in the botanical Visnaga, in the Serum, helps increase the skin temperature slightly. This increases the microcirculation to the hair roots. This gives the best conditions for healthy hair growth as it allows oxygen and nutrient delivery to the root of the hair.

Directions: Massage a small amount of Nutrigro® Serum into the scalp daily. If hair is breaking whilst combing or brushing apply a small amount of the Nutrigro® Serum from roots to ends daily.

Hair is 97% keratin, a protein. Nutrigro shampoo has phytokeratin in it – the building block of hair. Phytokeratin binds the three amino acids naturally present in sebum and in the hair to keep the hair moist, supple and strong. Phytokeratin has low molecular weight and can penetrate into hair improving its healthy appearance and adding moisture. It does not coat hair in the same way as other proteins. It leaves hair shining and sparkling.

The Tea Tree Oil, Sage and Lavender help unblock clogged hair follicles, moisturizes the hair and helps combat fungal and bacterial problems- sometimes a cause for blocked pores. Panthenol – a pro-vitamin, improves the manageability and shine to the hair.

Fenugreek has been traditionally used in India to strengthen hair. It is believed to increase blood flow and hence nutrients to the scalp.

The Shampoo base does not contain the harsh Lauryl Sulphates found in the majority of commercial shampoos. Some of the Lauryl Sulphates can cause irritation to the scalp.

What can cause hair loss?

One of the most common causes includes a lack of protein and complex carbohydrates and calories in your diet, crash dieting, vitamin D, B12, iron or zinc deficiency, stress, a shift in hormones (particularly around the menopause) and pregnancy with postpartum hair loss.

Aside from these causes, stress is also a major factor when it comes to hair loss, as it can increase androgen (male hormone) levels. As your scalp tries to regulate male hormone levels, hair follicles become more sensitive, which often results in hair loss. Stress can also impact how your body absorbs nutrients. This, alongside skipping meals or eating foods with little nutritional value, can cause a nutrient deficiency, a common cause of hair loss. 

Stress hormones can also disrupt the skin’s barrier function, and trigger skin irritation and inflammation. Therefore, you may find that your scalp gets itchy, flaky and overly sensitive and greasy when you are going through a stressful period.

What lifestyle changes can you make?

It cannot be stressed enough, how important a healthy diet is to hair health: “As hair is a non-essential tissue, and hair cells are the second-fastest-growing cells your body makes, its nutritional requirements are very high. In fact, even a small deficiency can cause hair loss.” 

For small changes you can make in your next trip to the supermarket, Ravi Bhanot, advises incorporating omega-3s, flaxseed and linseed into your diet. Also recommended are lentils, pulses, beans and oily fish along with exercising which is also important

There is no “one size fits all” approach to hair loss as your genetic profile, lifestyle and diet may be very different from a friend who is also experiencing hair loss. However, there are things that can help.

Protein is particularly essential as it is what your hair is made of, as hardly anyone eats enough protein – at least from a hair growth standpoint.

If you’re not getting enough nutrients with your diet, hair supplements can work as a buffer to aid hair growth. The use of supplements as a helping hand, as days when you are in a rush or don’t have time to eat a proper lunch of good nutritional value, can take a toll on your hair strands.
