Hair loss (also called as alopecia) is a common concern that affects many individuals at various stages of life. To effectively address and treat hair loss, it's crucial to understand its root causes, the life cycle of hair, and the available treatment options. In this blog, we'll explore these aspects in detail, and highlight how patented holistic solution combined with a laser comb, & innovative solutions like Davines On Protection can offer revolutionary results.
The Life Cycle of Hair
Hair growth follows a cyclical pattern that includes three main phases:
Anagen (Growth Phase): This is the active phase where hair follicles produce new hair. It lasts for several years, determining the length of your hair.
Catagen (Transitional Phase): This short phase lasts a few weeks, during which the hair follicle shrinks and detaches from the blood supply.
Telogen (Resting Phase): In this phase, which lasts for a few months, the hair remains in the follicle but does not grow. At the end of this phase, the hair falls out, and a new hair begins to grow in its place.
Understanding this cycle helps in diagnosing and treating hair loss effectively, as disruptions at any stage can lead to thinning or shedding.
Root Causes of Hair Loss
Several factors contribute to hair loss, including:
Genetics and Hormonal Changes: Conditions like androgenetic alopecia (pattern baldness) are often inherited and influenced by hormonal changes.
Nutritional Deficiencies: Lack of essential nutrients, such as vitamins and minerals, can weaken hair follicles and lead to hair loss. Read more about nutrients here.
Scalp Conditions: Issues such as dandruff, psoriasis, or seborrheic dermatitis can affect scalp health and contribute to hair loss.
Oxidative Stress: Free radicals can damage hair follicles, accelerating hair aging and leading to thinning.
DNA and Biological Clock: Genetic factors and the biological clock influence hair growth patterns and longevity. Age-related changes in DNA can impact the hair growth cycle.
Chemical Damage: Exposure to harsh chemicals from low-quality hair dyes, relaxers, and other treatments can compromise the health of your hair, leading to breakage and loss. Continued use of these substances can disrupt the natural hair growth cycle and damage the structural integrity of your strands.
Environmental Factors: Pollutants, excessive heat, and other environmental stressors can damage hair and contribute to hair loss.
Differentiating Hair Fall and Hair Breakage
Hair Fall: Refers to the loss of hair from the root, typically observed as shedding or thinning. It often indicates an issue with the hair growth cycle or underlying health conditions.
Hair Breakage: Involves the breaking of hair strands along the length, usually caused by physical damage, such as over-styling, excessive heat, or chemical treatments. It does not affect the hair follicle often (but does appear with both fall/breakage issues in many cases that we have seen primarily in cases of botched chemical treatments) but results in weakened hair strands.

Safe and Effective: Formulated with natural ingredients, the treatment is designed to be safe and effective, with minimal risk of side effects.
What about Minoxidil, and finasteride, could I also use it along side this treatment for hair fall?
Minoxidil is a commonly recommended treatment for hair loss, primarily known for increasing blood flow to the scalp to promote hair growth. However, it can sometimes cause scalp irritation, including itchiness and redness, and abnormal facial hair growth.
Additionally, Minoxidil does not address several key factors that contribute to hair loss, such as an oily scalp, dandruff, weakened hair follicles, hair thinning, and insufficient production of new hair cells.
Finasteride, on the other hand, may lead to facial and tongue swelling, trigger severe allergic reactions, and cause developmental defects in unborn fetuses.
Another drawback of Minoxidil and Finasteride is that discontinuing its use can lead to severe hair loss, as blood flow decreases and the other contributing factors remain unaddressed. This advanced treatment, however, offers a more holistic solution, ensuring that hair growth is sustained even after stopping use, without triggering withdrawal symptoms.
In contrast, the advanced treatment addresses all these major factors of hair loss. It provides a comprehensive approach by targeting the underlying causes of hair fall and improving overall scalp health without any side effects.
