Microneedling is not a one time fix. It is a strategy.

After your initial series, maintenance is what protects the results you worked for. Hair loss is influenced by hormones, inflammation, stress, and genetics. Those factors do not disappear once regrowth starts.

Maintenance sessions help keep circulation strong, support collagen production around the follicle, and encourage the hair to stay in its active growth phase. Without it, the scalp can slowly return to the same environment that caused thinning in the first place.

Think of it like skincare or fitness. You build momentum, then you maintain it.

If you want long term density, consistency matters.

Book your scalp analysis to create a personalized microneedling maintenance plan that fits your hair goals.

Not all hair supplements are created equal. The key is choosing the right support based on your pattern of hair loss, hormone balance, and nutrient status.

When I recommend supplements like Viviscal Pro, Nourishing Waves Plus, Pumpkin Seed Oil, or Vitamin D3, it is never random. Each one supports a specific part of the hair growth cycle whether that is strengthening the anagen phase, reducing DHT activity, improving density, or activating dormant follicles.

If you are dealing with thinning hair, hormonal hair loss, DHT related hair loss, slow hair growth, or chronic shedding, the right internal support can make a measurable difference. Hair follicles are biologically active tissue. They respond to nutrients, hormones, and inflammation levels.

Healthy hair starts from within. Guessing does not work. Strategy does.

If you want to know which supplements make sense for your hair, book your scalp analysis or send me a DM and let’s build a plan that actually supports growth.

If your hair feels thinner, sheds more than it used to, or simply will not grow past a certain point, this would be one of the areas I look.

Iron, vitamin D, B12, zinc, and thyroid function all play a direct role in the hair growth cycle. When these are low, your body prioritizes survival over hair. No serum can override that.

Healthy hair starts from within. Before adding another product, check your labs and optimize your foundations.

If you are unsure what to test or how to interpret your numbers, send me a DM to book or book a scalp analysis via the link in bio and let’s build a plan that actually supports regrowth.

One of the most researched natural supports for DHT related hair loss is pumpkin seed oil. Clinical research has shown that 400 mg per day significantly increased hair count in men with androgenetic alopecia over 24 weeks.

Why does it work?
Pumpkin seed oil helps reduce DHT activity at the follicle. And when you pair it with saw palmetto, you create a stronger internal strategy to calm shedding while supporting regrowth.

This is not about guesswork. It is about understanding the mechanism.

If your part is widening losing hair in the crown area or your temples are thinning, it may be time to address DHT properly.

Book a scalp analysis or send me a DM and let’s build a plan that supports your follicles from the inside out.

Your labs can be “normal” and your hair can still be struggling.

There is a big difference between normal for survival and optimal for hair growth. Ferritin at 45 might prevent anemia. Vitamin D at 38 might pass the lab range. TSH at 3.4 might look acceptable on paper. But hair follicles are not essential tissue. They only thrive when nutrients are abundant, not barely adequate.

If you are shedding daily and your doctor says everything looks fine, it may be time to look at optimal ranges, not just reference ranges. And if iron is not rising with supplements, digestion and absorption need attention first.

Hair loss is rarely random. It is usually a signal.

If your labs say fine but your hair says otherwise, book a scalp analysis and let’s look deeper.

Most people treat hair loss like a surface problem. It is not.

DHT is the main driver behind the most common type of hair loss in both men and women. You do not need high levels for it to cause thinning. Many people are simply genetically sensitive to it. Over time, DHT shrinks the follicle. Each strand grows back finer until the follicle can no longer support growth.

This is why stimulation alone is not enough. Microneedling, serums, and minoxidil can help, but if you are not addressing DHT, the cycle continues.

Reducing the DHT signal while supporting growth at the same time is key. That can include natural supports like pumpkin seed and saw palmetto alongside a personalized plan.

If your part is widening or your temples are thinning, do not wait. Book your scalp analysis or send me a DM and let’s identify what your hair is actually responding to.

Hair loss often feels sudden, but it follows a predictable biological cycle. The hair growth cycle explains why shedding shows up months after stress, hormones, illness, or lifestyle changes and why results take time even when treatment is working.

Understanding anagen, catagen, telogen, and exogen helps you stop panicking and start supporting the follicle properly. Hair regrowth depends on what happens beneath the surface long before you see change in the mirror.

If your hair has been shedding and you do not know why, this is where clarity begins.
Save this post and book a scalp analysis if you want to understand your cycle and create a plan that works with your biology.

Have you noticed your shedding started months after a stressful event or health change?

Noticing more shedding after starting hair growth treatment can feel scary, but in many cases, it’s a positive sign.

Hair grows in cycles. When treatments like microneedling, topical serums, or minoxidil activate dormant follicles, the old weak hairs shed first to make space for stronger growth. This temporary increase in shedding often shows up within the first six to eight weeks and signals that the cycle is moving forward.

What matters most is what comes next. When the scalp is supported, inflammation is managed, and nutrients are adequate, new growth follows. Stopping treatment during this phase is the biggest mistake I see and often leads to lost progress.

If you’re unsure whether your shedding is part of the process or something else, that’s exactly what a scalp analysis is for.

Book your scalp analysis or send me a DM and let’s make sure your hair is responding the right way.

Androgenic hair loss does not come out of nowhere.
For many women, it begins with blood sugar spikes that quietly disrupt hormones long before thinning becomes visible. Elevated insulin increases androgen activity, lowers SHBG, and raises DHT sensitivity at the follicle. Over time, hair grows back finer, weaker, and less resilient.

Treating hair loss means looking deeper than the strand. Blocking DHT matters, but so does supporting insulin balance through nutrition, movement, and metabolic health. When the internal environment calms, the scalp finally has a chance to respond.

If your part is widening or your hair feels thinner than it used to, this is worth paying attention to.
Save this post and book a scalp analysis to build a plan that actually addresses the cause.

Hair loss after stopping birth control can feel sudden, but it’s often delayed and predictable. When you stop hormonal contraception, estrogen levels drop and the hair cycle shifts. Three to four months later, more hairs move into shedding at once. This is called telogen effluvium. It does not mean permanent loss, but it does mean your body is recalibrating. Supporting hormones, iron stores, stress levels, and scalp health during this window makes a real difference in how quickly hair recovers. If you stopped birth control and your shedding recently increased, this timing matters more than you think.
If you want help understanding your hair cycle and building a plan that supports regrowth, book a scalp analysis or send me a DM.

Your hair is always communicating. Shedding, oiliness, flakes, itch, brittleness, tangles. These are not random. They are signals from your body asking for support.

In this carousel, I break down what common scalp and hair changes often reflect beneath the surface, from nutrient levels and stress load to hormones, gut health, inflammation, and lifestyle patterns. When you learn how to read these signs early, you stop reacting and start correcting the root cause.

If your hair has been changing and you are not sure why, this is your reminder to listen before the whisper becomes a scream.

Which sign do you notice most right now, shedding, greasy roots, flakes, itch, or breakage?

Save this post for reference and send me a DM or book a scalp analysis if you want personalized answers instead of guesswork.
