Hair loss typically results from genetic factors (such as androgenetic alopecia), hormonal changes, medical conditions (thyroid disorders, alopecia areata), nutritional deficiencies (iron, vitamin D), medications, or stress-induced shedding (telogen effluvium). Identifying the exact cause enables targeted and effective management.

Effective hair loss prevention combines targeted treatments and a holistic approach.

Our recommended routine includes Neofollics Hair Growth Stimulating Shampoo and Conditioner for scalp health, Hair Growth Stimulating Lotion applied with a Scalp Roller to enhance absorption, and Hair Growth Supporting Tablets to nourish follicles internally.

Complement this with a balanced diet, gentle hair care, stress management, and adequate sleep to maximise results.

Early-onset hair loss often arises from hereditary factors (male or female pattern baldness), nutritional deficiencies, hormonal imbalances (e.g., PCOS), or significant stress. Early diagnosis and intervention can slow or reverse this hair loss effectively.

Scientifically supported treatments include topical Neoxyl (clinically demonstrated to be 41% more effective than Minoxidil), oral Finasteride (available by prescription), low-level laser therapy (LLLT), platelet-rich plasma (PRP), microneedling, and, in severe cases, hair transplant surgery. Consistent and long-term application is essential to maintain and maximise results.

Yes, severe stress and chronic sleep deprivation can trigger telogen effluvium, a temporary condition causing noticeable hair shedding. Hair growth typically resumes once the underlying stress or sleep issues are resolved, generally within 6-12 months.

Adequate protein, iron, zinc, vitamin D, and biotin intake are essential for healthy hair growth. Nutritional deficiencies, especially iron-deficiency anaemia, commonly cause hair thinning. Ensuring balanced nutrition supports optimal hair health and regrowth.

Hair treatments typically require 3–4 months to show reduced shedding, around 6 months to reveal visible regrowth, and about 12 months for optimal results. Patience and consistent treatment application are essential due to the hair's natural growth cycle.

Yes, postpartum hair loss is temporary, caused by hormonal shifts after childbirth. Shedding usually peaks at 3–4 months postpartum and resolves naturally within 6–12 months. Gentle hair care and good nutrition can aid quicker recovery.

Regular shampooing doesn't cause true hair loss, but harsh shampoos can cause scalp irritation or hair breakage. Tight hairstyles (ponytails, braids) may lead to traction alopecia if worn frequently, causing permanent damage if not addressed early.

Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) blockers reduce hair loss by preventing the conversion of testosterone into DHT, the hormone responsible for hair follicle shrinkage in androgenetic alopecia (hereditary hair loss). High levels of DHT lead to follicle miniaturisation, progressively thinning hair until the follicle can no longer support visible hair growth.

Topical and oral treatments such as Finasteride (prescription-based) inhibit the enzyme 5-alpha-reductase, effectively reducing DHT levels at the scalp. Herbal extracts like saw palmetto, beta-sitosterol, and green tea also possess mild DHT-blocking properties. Consistent long-term use of DHT blockers is necessary to maintain their protective effect, as ceasing treatment typically results in the return of hair loss.

Products such as Neofollics Hair Growth Supporting Tablets incorporate natural DHT-blocking ingredients to complement clinical treatments, offering additional support in managing hereditary hair loss.

Female hair loss primarily arises from hormonal changes, nutritional deficiencies, and certain medical conditions. Common factors include:

Hormonal imbalances: Conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), menopause, pregnancy, and thyroid dysfunction affect hormone levels and hair growth cycles.

Androgenetic alopecia (female pattern hair loss): Genetic predisposition causing diffuse hair thinning, particularly noticeable around the crown and parting areas.

Telogen effluvium: Triggered by significant stress, illness, or sudden nutritional changes, resulting in diffuse hair shedding approximately 3–4 months after the triggering event.

Nutritional deficiencies: Iron-deficiency anaemia, low vitamin D, zinc, or protein intake can negatively impact hair follicle health and hair growth.

Autoimmune conditions: Alopecia areata, lupus, and other autoimmune disorders can cause patchy or diffuse hair loss.

Accurate diagnosis by a medical professional is crucial, as treating the underlying cause usually results in improved hair regrowth. Targeted nutritional supplementation, hormonal regulation, and specialised hair care products may support recovery and long-term hair health.

A healthy scalp provides an optimal environment for hair follicles to thrive, directly influencing hair growth quality and density. Scalp conditions such as inflammation, excessive oiliness, dryness, or microbial imbalances can disrupt follicular health, potentially leading to increased hair shedding or reduced growth rate.

Maintaining scalp health involves regular cleansing with gentle shampoos to prevent buildup of sebum, pollutants, and dead skin cells, which can clog follicles and provoke inflammation. Proper hydration and the use of scalp-nourishing ingredients—such as antioxidants, vitamins, and soothing botanicals—further improve scalp condition and reduce inflammation.

Neofollics' Hair Growth Shampoo, Hair Growth Conditioner, Scalp Therapy Exfoliating Shampoo, and Scalp Therapy Nourishing Mask are specifically formulated to support scalp health through gentle cleansing, soothing inflammation, and promoting optimal follicular function, thus creating an ideal environment for sustained hair growth.
