A Natural solution to hair loss and hair thinning
Hair is the fastest growing tissue in the human body! The average rate of growth is about one half inch a month. Hair growth is optimal from age 15 to 30, slow down from age 40 to 50, and is progressively lost by about age 50. We typically lose between 50-100 scalp hairs each day. healthy hair growth consists of three phases:
-
Anagen Phase -- air Follicles enter an active growing period lasting about 3-5 years. Up to 95% of healthy hair follicles are in this phase at any given time.
-
Catagen Phase -- The Anagen phase is followed by a 2-3 week period of declining growth.
-
Telogen Phase -- The Catagen phase is followed by a temporary resting period, which typically lasts 3-4 months. After which the hair is shed and the follicle begins pushing a new hair to the surface.
An Overview of Hair Loss
If you're a man, you have a 50 percent chance of experiencing pattern hair loss by your 50th birthday. However, most men lose hair to some degree by age 35. This hereditary condition, clinically termed Androgenetic alopecia, is characterized by a reseeding hairline, as well as a loss of hair on top of the scalp. While going bald isn't life threatening, it can be life altering to men. Women also suffer from pattern hair loss, although not as prominently as men. The condition occurs in up to 25% of pre-menstrual women and approximately 40 percent of postmenopausal women. While pattern hair loss normally does not affect the frontal hairline in women as it does in men, thinning over the front and top of the scalp is typical and can be devastating to a women's self-esteem.
Pattern hair loss in both sexes is marked by a progressive miniaturisation of hair follicles, causing a shortening of the hair growth cycle. As the growth phase shortens, the hair becomes thinner and shorter, to the point where there is no growth at all. Hair loss or thinning is most commonly associated with ageing or hereditary, but can also be attributed to stress, changes in immune health, nutritional deficiencies, and other causes. Because hereditary hair loss is gradual, the sooner treatment is started, the better the chances of results. Research indicates that one of the primary causes of age-related hair loss or hair thinning in men and women is DHT (Dihydrostestosterone), the "bad" form of the hormone testosterone.
As we age, the level of DHT tends to increase. This form of testosterone, DHT, fits perfectly onto a receptor site on the follicle causing the hair to shorten its normal growth phase. In other words, DHT tends to inhibit the growth of scalp hair, and in most men the hairs in the front of the scalp are more sensitive to DHT. This in turn causes men to lose their hair in a distinct pattern, starting with a receding hairline often coupled with a growing bald spot on top of the head.
The effect on is noticeably different in that women tend to have a general thinning of the hair as they age. Approximately 40% of women passing through menopause experience moderate to severe thinning of the hair. This is driven by a combination of rising levels of DHT as well as decreasing levels of estrogen brought on by menopause.
DHT appears to cause follicle to enter the resting phase faster and this shedding continues at a quicker and quicker rate, causing the 'new' hair to become finer and ultimately leading to the follicles shutting down and becoming dormant, Nu Hair products were specifically developed to address hair loss associated with ageing or heredity.
