I think October weddings are my favorite 🍂

If you’re noticing thinning at the top of the head⬇️

For Men- look for thinning temples and hairline especially if it’s following a horse-shoe pattern

For Women- look for a widening part line especially if it’s branching out almost like a “christmas tree” pattern

If you notice these things while also having a family history of hair loss, then the chances your dealing with DHT sensitivity is high. This could be anyone in your family- mom, dad, brother, sister, uncle. It does not follow a “it’s from your mom’s dad” scenario.

If you truly want to block DHT from attacking your hair follicles, it does require a commitment. If you stop the supplements and topicals, you’ll start to lose hair again because nothing is blocking the DHT.

Understanding if you actually have DHT sensitivity is also something that needs to be determined before getting DHT blockers.

Don’t waste your time and money on things before understanding if you actually need them!

I’ve seen so many people have results with just switching products alone, I’ve seen it in my own hair!

Ingredients do matter. Natural herbs and essential oils do work. They are designed to keep your hair in anagen. (Growing phase)

The problem is that what goes on inside our bodies affects our hair more than we realize and if those problems don’t get fixed, you’re not really solving the issue.

Your hair is telling you more than just “hey I’m shedding” it’s a clue that something is off and we should be paying attention to that. Of course we want healthy hair but our overall health is just as important!

The most important job you have when losing hair is figuring out WHY.

Not all hair loss is genetic, but genetic hair loss will follow a pattern. For guys, it’s thinning at the top of the head. For women, it’s also at the top of the head but thinning is very noticeable in the part. Sometimes it follows a “Christmas tree pattern” so it kind of branches out from the part line.

If you’re thinning at the top of the head while also having a family history of hair loss, you likely have DHT sensitivity.

Might I add, it’s not from your mother’s father. I don’t know who made that up but it could be from literally anyone in your family. Your mom, dad, brothers, sisters, uncles, ect.

The sooner you notice the pattern, the sooner you can do something about it. The longer you wait, the more chances you have that the follicles will actually die. Once that happens, you cannot regrow hair in that area.

I know… this might be shocking 🫣

Think about how you take care of your face. Our scalp is really no different. We just don’t think about it because hair grows there. My face is quite oily, If I didn’t wash my face for 5 days it would actually be more oily! (And gross 😂)

When you wash according to your scalp type without harsh ingredients, you won’t need to worry about “stripping natural oils”

If you need help figuring out your scalp type, I can help you!
