TRICHOLOGY -WHAT IS IT?

Trichology is the science and study of the structure, function and diseases of the human hair and scalp.

An IoT registered trichologist – although not a doctor, will have had extensive specialised training and have an expert knowledge of the hair and scalp and all matters associated to that area of the body. They will also have excellent knowledge of many other areas of the body which may relate to hair loss, skin or scalp issues.

The hair is a barometer of our general health and the body with its various systems needs to function like a well-rehearsed orchestra. Every component must play its role in a balanced and effective way at exactly the right time or else noise or chaos ensues. Often when a part of our body is out of balance it will tell in the condition of our hair and skin.

Did you know?

75% of men and 25% of women suffer from hair thinning at some point in their life.

This loss may be the onset of a permanent loss or it may only be temporary.

There are a multitude of reasons why hair loss may occur, and one should never assume that the loss is permanent or untreatable. Whether you are male or female, young or old or whatever ethnic background you are from, there are identifiable reasons for thinning hair, which can be explained and often treated. We sometimes just need to piece together the puzzle to see the complete picture.

The hair is a barometer of our general health. The body with its various systems needs to function like a well-rehearsed orchestra. Every system must play its role in a balanced and effective way at exactly the right time or else noise or chaos ensues.

Consultant trichologist and tricho-therapist Justin Hannant AIT.

Having spent nearly 30 years in the hairdressing industry I have encountered many people with hair and scalp problems. The first person people tend to ask for advice is their hairdresser. Frustrated at being unable to answer these questions in depth I decided to train to become a trichologist, so I could truly give the correct advice and information to people who needed it. After 2 years of intensive study and training at the prestigious institute of Trichologists I now run clinics in London and Essex, and can offer in-house treatments or a wide range of products for you to use at home.

WE CAN OFFER CONSULTATIONS AT LOCATIONS IN ESSEX AND LONDON. TO FIND OUT AVAILABILITY AND TO BOOK AN APPOINTMENT YOU CAN EMAIL ME HERE OR TELEPHONE 07925 576892 DURING OFFICE HOURS MONDAY TO FRIDAY.
