About Hair Loss

HAIR LOSS IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST CONTRIBUTORS TO STRESS IN OUR CULTURE

Did you know?

• An estimated 40 million men & 30 million women are experiencing fine, thinning or excessive hair loss.
• Two out of every three men can expect to be bald (or balding) by the time they reach 50 years of age.
• As many as 36 percent of women between the ages of 40 and 49 agonize over some degree of hair thinning or loss. 

• Four billion dollars are annually spent on combating hair and hair loss.

Few things are more stressful than finding clumps of hair in your shower, on your brush, or on your pillow.  Just a little shedding often drives men and women, both young and old, to utter dispair.  But, if caught early, there is hope.  With early detection, professional consultation and advanced products and technologies, it is possible to bring solutions to the millions of people who suffer from the effects of fine, thinning and limp hair.


6 Common Types of Hair Loss
Androgenetic Alopecia
A very common form of hair loss associated with male pattern baldness. Androgenetic Alopecia presents as loss of hair over the top of the crown and the temples and slowly expands in affected men.  Generally, hair on both sides and the back of the head does not fall off. Men that are predisposed to androgenetic alopecia begin to lose hair at any time after puberty, typically gradually in their 20's with 10% increased hair loss per decade.  For many women, androgenetic alopecia starts during menopause.

Alopecia Areata
Alopecia areata is a highly unpredictable, autoimmune skin disease, resulting the loss of hair on the scalp and elsewhere on the body.  This disease affects approximately 1.7 percent of the population overall, including more than 4 million people in the United States alone.  Alopecia areata is not commonly known - the impact on one's life can be significant.

Alopecia areata usually starts with one or more small, round, smppth bald areas, on the scalp but can affect all hair-covered areas of the skin, such as the beard, pubic and eyebrow areas. Patchy baldness that typically begins with rapid hair loss on discrete areas of the scalp and sometimes progresses to complete baldness and even loss of body hair. The characteristic diagnostic finding is short, broken hairs called “exclamation point” hairs. Alopecia areata affects both males and females and, most often, children and young adults. It seems to be caused by an autoimmune mechanism, wherein the body’s own immune system attacks the hair follicles and disrupts normal hair formation. Alopecia areata is sometimes associated with allergic disorders, thyroid disease, vitiligo, lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, ulcerative colitis, and other conditions, and some forms may be inherited. Hair can sometimes regrow within a year without treatment. The longer the period of time of hair loss, the less chance that the hair will regrow.


Female Pattern Baldness
Female pattern hair loss typically appears as thinning or diffusion in the crown behind the hairline and becomes more pronounced over time.  Female pattern hair loss is present when you see the scalp through the hair.

Male Pattern Baldness
Male pattern hair loss is the most common type of hair loss.  It typically appears as a receding front hair line or thinning on top of the head (the crown).  It also appears as a loss of hair in a horseshoe pattern.  Male pattern baldness can begin in the teen years.  It's generally caused by a combination of factors:  A genetic pre-disposition to excessive DHT and hormone production, demodex folliculorum and age related changes in the body.

Traction/Traumatic Alopecia
Generalized hair loss brought on by aggressive brushing, styling or weaving.  It is also caused by prolonged stress or tension (pulling) created by overly tight weaving, extensions and corn rowing styling techniques placed on weak hair.  It can result in permanent hair loss.  Extreme heat styling and excessive amounts of strong chemical services, like bleaching, coloring and permanent waving, can also cause temporary, rapid hair loss.

Trichotillomania
The unnatural and irresistible urge to pull out one's own hair caused by certain psychological disorders.  It's estimated that 8 million Americans are affected by this compulsive action.  These disorders can acyually cause people to impulsively pull out their hair in large clumps.  There are prescription drugs that have been effective in treating this condition.  However, hair re-growth is not always successful.
