In this story, women’s hair regrowth and curl transformation, the hair loss was post covid diffuse hair loss that exposed underlying diffuse hair thinning.
Microscopic diagnosis – women’s hair regrowth
Microscopic diagnosis by Absolique Hair Health Clinic Trichologist found 10% of the genetic hair had changed structure resulting in loss of hair volume along with high percent empty hair follicles indicating the current state of telogen effluvium.
The hair cycle
When hair has lost its genetic type, it looks structurally different with a 60x microscope. It has lost some of its layers from a cellular level and it is also out of the genetic hair cycle.
The first thing to do for hair regrowth is helping to correct the hair cycle and get the hairs growing again in the anagen hair growth phase of the hair cycle.
Current hair loss
With current hair loss, that was already caused 3 months ago or more recent as with post covid telogen effluvium, you must wait for hair loss to stop, which is 3 months of hair fall. We can implement hair loss treatments to slow down the hair loss, but you can’t stop something that has already happened in the body.
The best plan is to help the hair cycle to get back on track with hair loss treatment and hair growth treatment. If you leave the hair loss to follow its course without any hair loss treatment, the hair should regrow after 12 months.
Check health status – blood tests
When experiencing hair loss, it is a good idea to get some blood test just to check health status. In this case, the microscopic diagnosis indicated a scalp condition that is caused by low essential fatty acids and low vitamin D. Both were confirmed by the bloods so we could help with some nutritional support for hair growth and healthy immunity post covid.
Curl transformation
Because of the hair loss and diffuse hair thinning, the physical hair was not representing its natural curl. It was looking frizzy instead. Sadly, this is a structural change that needs to be repaired at a cellular level. Here we prescribed a hair care routine to use along with the hair loss treatment.
It is essential to separate hair and scalp when using hair loss treatments or the hair can look very poorly from the products used for hair growth. Hair and scalp are very different and it is essential to treatment them separately with long, curly, damaged hair.
