Find out what is actually causing your hair loss

Hair loss is not one condition, and the treatments that work depend entirely on which process is causing it. This is a library, written to be read rather than sold from.

Hair loss does not behave the same way in everyone

Four routes, and the honest limits of each

No treatment regrows a follicle that has been gone for years. Some slow the process, some improve the appearance of what remains, and some do both. Anyone who tells you otherwise is selling something.

Which of them is worth your time depends almost entirely on the diagnosis, and the diagnosis is the part most people skip. Pattern loss, telogen effluvium, traction and the scarring alopecias look similar in a bathroom mirror and respond to completely different things. Treating the wrong one costs you the window in which the right one would have worked, which is the single most expensive mistake available here.

So the library is arranged around the question rather than around the products. Work out what is happening first; the shortlist of what to do about it follows from that, and it is usually shorter than you would expect.

What an assessment establishes

  1. 1.
    Which process is causing the loss

    Pattern loss, telogen effluvium, traction and scarring alopecia look similar in a mirror and behave nothing alike. The examination separates them, because the answer decides which routes are worth discussing at all.

  2. 2.
    Whether it is stable or still moving

    Loss that is still progressing changes what any treatment can hold. It is the difference between planning around a fixed area and planning around one that will keep widening, and it is judged from history and examination rather than a single photograph.

  3. 3.
    Which routes are available to you, and which are not

    Donor supply, scalp condition, skin type and how the loss is behaving each rule options in or out. You leave knowing what is on the table and what is not, without a price attached to the conversation.
