Thinning hair

Menopause frequently triggers hair loss due to fluctuating oestrogen levels. As oestrogen declines, hair follicles shrink, slowing growth and increasing shedding. Hair loss may also stem from stress, medications, nutritional deficiencies, or genetics.

Woman with Long Grey Hair

For women experiencing menopausal hair loss, several strategies can encourage regrowth. Anti-hair loss shampoos, stress reduction, improved nutrition, and hormonal therapies that address the underlying hormonal changes may all help. However, it's important to avoid over-washing the hair, as this can lead to dryness and brittleness. Instead, use a shampoo formulated for your specific hair type.

​

Key vitamins and minerals like vitamin D, B vitamins, vitamin A, zinc, selenium, and iron can influence hair growth and should be addressed through diet or supplements if deficient.

​

To address thinning, dehydrated hair, use a hydrating, volumising hair serum and a revitalising hair mask along with a strengthening shampoo and conditioner. The serum will hydrate the hair and scalp, thicken strands and roots for a fuller appearance, add shine, and reduce shedding, breakage, and dryness. The mask will soften, hydrate, and energize thinning hair without weighing it down.

Limiting sun exposure by wearing a stylish headscarf or hat and eating a healthy diet can also help reduce the risk of hair loss.

 

Early treatment is crucial for addressing hair loss. If you have already experienced significant hair loss, a hair transplant may be an option, but you should consult a doctor first. The appropriate treatment for extensive hair loss depends on the underlying cause. If your hair loss is related to menopause, your doctor or dermatologist may recommend minoxidil, laser treatment, or a combination of both.
