The body requires nourishment via proper nutrients—nutrients that power the hair follicle and are needed to build hair. These can be depleted by a poor diet or microbiome imbalance, affecting hair’s strength and overall health.

Genetic predisposition can increase your sensitivity to DHT (dihydrotestosterone), a hormone known to cause hair follicles to shrink—leading to progressive hair thinning.

A busy lifestyle can lead to stress, a root cause shown to make hair follicles shift from a growth state to a rest state. If not addressed, the follicle receives a signal to prematurely stop growing, compromising your hair health and resulting in shedding.

Through a process called oxidative stress, lifestyle triggers—like a poor diet and alcohol consumption—damage the hair follicles and weaken their ability to produce and grow hair.

Changes in metabolism—whether from diet or aging—leave your body with less energy to power healthy hair growth.

The aging process is unavoidable, and we begin to notice its effects in our 20s. As it pertains to hair, aging causes a structural breakdown of the scalp, eliminating key components that protect, hydrate, and replenish nutrients needed for strong hair growth.
