Reversing Hair Damage from Chemical Trauma, Relaxers and Weaves: Barbara’s Story

Barbara’s hair loss issues: very severe Alopecia Areata

Barbara was in her 30s when she came to us worried about her severely thinning hair. The chemical trauma (caused by years of from relaxers and the strain of tight weaves) had created significant damage. Despite having a healthy scalp, the repeated exposure to harsh chemicals and the mechanical stress from styling left her hair weak, damaged, and reduced density by 50%. She was eager to restore her hair’s health and regain its natural thickness.

Barbara’s hair loss treatment plan

For Barbara, we developed a 12-month intensive treatment plan using 20% Vitastim and 20% Biostim twice daily. This high-strength formula was designed to repair the damage caused by relaxers and weaves, strengthen the hair strands, and stimulate the follicles to restore density and promote healthy regrowth.

Barbara’s outcome

After a year of dedicated treatment, Barbara’s hair made a remarkable recovery. Her hair density increased significantly, and the overall health and strength of her hair improved dramatically. She was thrilled with the results, with her hair now much fuller, healthier, and less prone to breakage.

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.
