Understanding Human Hair Loss

The most common form of hair loss for men & women is known as Androgenetic Alopecia. Common characteristics of this type of hair loss include:
Impacts both Men & Women
This condition is hereditary (meaning it is a genetic condition passed down from either your mother or father)
The hair loss gene, unlocks a genetic weakness within the hair follicles on the top & front of the head, but does not impact the sides, back or any other hair on the body.
The gene makes hair on the top and front of the head thin, when the follicles contact a hormone (known as DHT or Di Hydro Testosterone)

The DHT hormone causes the hair follicle to miniaturize and thin, the follicles ATTRACT LESS BLOOD SUPPLY and therefore you will start to experience thinner, weaker, finer & flatter hair.
DHT is damaging/injuring your hair follicles.
Eventually the follicle can die, when this happens, no hair strand can be grown.
