Did you know that half of all women will show signs of hair loss by the time they are 50?
There are many reasons women may suffer from hair loss throughout their lives. From autoimmune conditions to stress, nutritional deficiencies, hormone imbalances, and illnesses, women’s hair loss is surprisingly common for a topic so rarely spoken about. We are passionate about bringing awareness to this area, as women’s health and confidence are our main priorities.
The most common cause, Women’s Pattern Hair Loss, also known as Androgenetic Alopecia, is caused by an increase in Androgens (male hormones), making hair follicles shrink. There is no one age for hair loss to begin, though most affected experience hair thinning or hair loss after menopause. For some, this condition is genetic, passed from one parent or the other, though this isn’t always the case.
Alopecia is also linked to autoimmune conditions, such as thyroid dysfunction, and diseases such as PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome). Other issues, such as restricted nutrition, severe deficiencies, and insulin resistance, can cause hair loss or reduce the hair growth cycle. Certain medications and medical treatments, such as chemotherapy, can cause varying levels of temporary or permanent hair loss.
Each person’s journey to healing is unique, and we offer private, one-on-one consultations for this very reason. There is no one-size-fits-all approach to Hair Toppers, and we will always be honest if a full wig may better suit your needs.
Hair loss, of course, can cause a major drop in confidence, creating social anxiety and sadly, more. We are here to support you and give you that confidence back.
Finding hair toppers as a hairdresser who had been in the service of women through many phases of their lives, I often felt at a loss myself when they began to experience thinning. When a dear client of multiple decades came in to see me one day, we again discussed all the options she had tried over the years. I had become aware of toppers available in other cities, and was blown away by not only the effect but the quality of hair. They were seamless. Having now brought hair toppers to Toowoomba, we have been able to transform the lives of countless women.
Please seek medical assistance for any issues related to hair loss, as causes can vary, and your GP can set you on the right path to understanding your body. We are here to help cosmetically and to boost your confidence in your time of need.
