Anna’s hair loss issues: Chemical Trauma and Relaxer Damage

Anna’s hair loss issues: Chemical Trauma and Manual Damage

Anna came to us concerned about the thinning and fragility of her hair. While only in her early 20s, Anna had used chemical relaxers and wore tight weaves for years. She had started to notice her hair becoming weak and prone to breakage, resulting in a 20% density loss. Although her scalp was healthy, the mechanical stress and chemical damage had left her hair looking thin and vulnerable. Anna wanted to repair the damage and restore her hair’s natural health and fullness.

Anna’s hair loss transformation

Anna’s treatment plan

We developed an intensive 12-month treatment plan for Anna’s hair loss issues using 20% Vitastim and 20% Biostim, applied twice daily. The high-strength formulas were chosen to target the extensive damage caused by chemical treatments and manual tension, strengthening the hair strands, promoting new growth, and restoring her hair’s density and structure.

Anna’s outcome

After a year of treatment, Anna’s hair made a remarkable recovery. The damaged areas grew back well, making her hair stronger, thicker, and less prone to breakage. The transformation repaired her hair and restored her confidence, allowing her to enjoy a fuller, healthier head of hair.

Severe Chemical Damage/Traction Alopecia, what is it?

Traction Alopecia is hair loss caused by constant tension on the hair, such as that created by an over-tight ponytail, plaiting or 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.
