Trichology is the field of dermatology that encompasses the scalp and follicles, and it’s a field we take seriously here at LH Hair. Each client is provided with a FREE hair and scalp exam, which helps us identify some of the factors contributing to hair loss. From there, we can often recommend clinical-strength trichological solutions that can repair the scalp and stimulate new hair growth. We always individualize our trichology and scalp treatments to meet the specific needs of each client.
As our society moves towards healthier living, everyone wants to protect our crowning glory… a full head of healthy hair! The average person has about 100,000 hairs on their head and, with the normal growth cycle, can expect to shed 3 to 4 percent monthly. That's over 100 hairs a day! When considerably more hair, or clumps, are lost at one time, this becomes a concern. In some cases hair loss is hereditary, but it is important to consult a physician to determine if there are any underlying serious health issues that need to be addressed. Regardless of any medical conditions, it is also important to start hair loss prevention to minimize any permanent damage.
Trichology, a category of dermatology, is the health science of hair and scalp. To grow healthy hair, the scalp must be clean and healthy. Problems that can be evaluated and treated are:
- Excessive hair loss, thinning hair or baldness
- Oily or dry hair and dandruff
- Areata, Totalis or Universalis Alopecia
- Excessive seasonal shedding, often in the spring or fall
- Scaling, either in patches or over entire scalp
- Itching and eczema
- Chemotherapy or cranial radiation therapy
- Hair loss after pregnancy
- Hair breakage
- Over processing from perms, hair straighteners, hair coloring, etc.
- Tension from braiding, pony-tails, hair twirling or pulling
Maintaining a healthy scalp is essential to healthy hair. Skin is the largest and fastest growing organ within our bodies. The base of the hair follicle, called the hair bulb, anchors hair into the skin, and blood vessels nourish the cells and deliver the hormones that modify the hair structure and growth throughout our lives.
Capilia Head First Hair Loss Prevention
Hair loss prevention and rejuvenation is of core importance to what we do at LH Hair. And, we're proud to be the FIRST certified hair renewal center for Capilia Head First program in both North Carolina and South Carolina. Many of our clients have already started a Head First prevention program showing such promising results as texture and color improvement, less oily or dry hair and scalp, and new hair regrowth. Now you can reap the benefits of this program, too.
Our goal is the same for all our clients: to treat scalp skin disorders and conditions that are restricting the natural hair growth cycle. However, every treatment plan is unique and customized to each individual's needs.
The first step is to closely examine your scalp and hair follicles using a microscopic camera. Using Head First protocol, the correct mix of products and time line are created. On your first treatment visit, you will relax with a series of shampoos, conditioners, emulsion and more. Enjoy the quiet time to meditate, read, use your mobile phone, or simply relax. At the end of your first visit, your certified technician will again examine your scalp and hair follicles using the microscopic camera. You'll be amazed with the immediate improvement of your scalp condition by seeing before and after pictures. Your hair will feel so much softer to touch.
All Head First products by Capilia are green, using biodegradable products and biocompatible processes. These products were designed for all hair and skin types, and are extremely rich in natural active ingredients. This therapeutic program is designed to pamper you with in-salon treatments and products to take home for on-going use.
