Avoidable Hair Loss Causes
Posted in Cost of Ownership, Losing Hair? | 4 Comments | Post a comment »
This is a question that we answer for a lot of our hair transplant patients. One thing that most people may not know about their hair is that it goes through growth and rest cycles. Your hair will grow during a growth cycle, enter a resting phase, and will then fall out to be replaced by a new hair. Thinning begins to occur in this case once the rate of hairs lost exceeds the rate of new hair growth.
Possibly Preventable or Curable Hair Loss Causes
· Medications- A vast array of medications on the market today can result in hair loss as a side effect. Medications to treat arthritis, heart problems, and high blood pressure have especially been linked to hair loss.
· Hair Treatments- Excessive bleaching, dying, and heating causes hair to become brittle and to break off. Once the hair has become weak, it is also very succeptible to falling out.
· Poor Nutrition- Protein and iron are very important to the health of your hair and having less than recommended levels of either one in your diet can trigger hair loss.
· Scalp Infections- Ringworm is notorious for causing hair loss, when the fungal infections makes it’s home on the scalp. If this is the cause of your hair loss, you will have to treat the ringworm properly before the hair will begin to grow back.

I was actually surprised by the affordability of the process and happy that i could break the payments down to very affordable monthly amounts.

My growth cycle is every 10-12 weeks. After my treatment, I could really feel the growth after a couple of months. Then I felt it again at about 6-7 months, then around a year.

I set up payments for my surgery. I’d saved a little so I put that down and my payments were 165.45 a month.
Well worth it for me and that way I didn’t have to put it off any longer. My mom was very supportive and even cosigned for me. My friend used the finance program they offer and didn’t put any money down.
For me, I’d rather put some money down and make the payment lower. My hair has grown in now and I’ve got everything almost paid off.

Forgot to add something. My friend got a new job after his hair had grown in. May be a coincidence but who knows.
