Hair Loss: It’s More Common — and Complex — Than You Think
Hair thinning or loss can be frustrating and emotional. While it’s often thought of as genetic, it’s rarely due to just one cause. Common contributors include:
• Hormonal changes (e.g., postpartum, menopause)
• Stress and chronic illness
• Nutrient deficiencies (iron, vitamin D, etc.)
• Medications
• Scalp inflammation or buildup from styling products
• Harsh ingredients in hair products — like sulfates (SLS) and parabens
Why Scalp Health Matters:
A healthy scalp provides the environment needed for strong, resilient hair. That’s where scalp-focused products like Nioxin come in. They’re designed to cleanse away buildup, support scalp balance, and condition the hair without heavy residues.
Tip: If you’re noticing hair shedding, a pharmacist or healthcare provider can help rule out underlying causes and suggest appropriate next steps — from lab work to supportive topical options
