What Is Androgenetic Alopecia? Do I Have It?

10.10.2007 in Uncategorized

Answer: Androgenetic Alopecia in men has a characteristic pattern of hair loss; it begins with a slight recession at the front hairline and is followed by thinning on the crown of the head. This hair loss results from a complex chemical reaction when the enzyme 5-alpha-reductase converts the testosterone in the system into DHT or dihydrotestosterone. The hair follicles are genetically predisposed to be over sensitive to the DHT and become smaller and smaller with time, leading to the eventual hair loss.

This condition affects both men and women alike.

What Is Traction Alopecia? Do I Have It?

10.10.2007 in Uncategorized

Answer: Traction Alopecia is hair loss caused by constant tension on the hair, such as that created by an over-tight ponytail, plaiting or through using too tight rollers to style the hair. The action of pulling on the hair over a long period of time results in the gradual shrinking of the hair follicle and so the hairs produced become finer and finer and permanently damaged if not treated.

What Is Telogen Effluvium? Do I Have It?

10.10.2007 in Uncategorized

Answer: Telogen Effluvium occurs when the growing phase of the hair is interrupted prematurely causing the hair follicles to enter the telogen (resting) phase of the hair cycle earlier than normal. Two to four months later, following the normal cyclic pattern, diffuse shedding of the hair begins. When this happens there are not enough hairs left in the anagen phase, or growing phase, and the result is therefore diffuse thinning of the hair.

What Is Psoriasis? Do I Have It?

09.10.2007 in Uncategorized

Answer: Psoriasis is characterised by the presence of red, raised patches covered by silvery-white scales, which is caused by an abnormally fast cell division rate in the epidermis layer of the skin and is a genetically determined disorder. This condition often leads to increased shedding of hairs in the telogen (resting) phase of the hair cycle and some reduction in hair density.

Severe Eczema: I Am Very Happy With My Treatment Results.

09.10.2007 in Uncategorized

I have suffered from severe eczema for most of my adult life. I guess some 20 years. I’ve literally every shampoo on the market here and in America, without any success what so ever. However, since I started using The Hair Centre’s No.4 and No.15 shampoo’s on alternate days along with No.8 for my irratation and itchy scalp, there has been an incredible improvement in the condition of my scalp.

The plant based natural ingredients in the shampoo have a cooling, calming effect on my scalp, this has worked so well it is no longer inflamed and itchy. My hair too seems to be in beautiful condition. Obviously, I am benefiting from a healthier scalp. I have recommended The Hair Centre’s products to all of my friends, and I would happily recommend the No.4, No.15 and No.8 products to anyone with the same or similar scalp problem.
