Genetic testing to see if your going to lose your hair

January 18th, 2010

New genetic test for hair loss, Hair DX. Find out if you are really going to go bald or lose your hair. Available for $ 325.000

Sure HairDX Genetic Test
This new genetic test from Hair DX predicts and allows men to better understand their risk for male pattern hair loss (androgenic alopecia). But the test is not just for men, it also isolates potential causes for certain types of hair loss in women.
The test, which costs $325.00 Canadian, is conducted by Sure Hair International, by a staff member or physician who swabs the inside of the cheek for several seconds. The swab is then sent to the HairDX lab where the analysis is performed. Within a few weeks the results come back to Sure Hair International. The results may only be analyzed by Dr. Nelson Ferreira or a licensed Sure Hair physician.
There are over five Sure Hair locations throughout Ontario Canada where the initial tests can be done. Visit www.surehair.com for your nearest testing facility.
The Sure HairDX test effectively identifies the absence or presence of an androgenic receptor gene. In men, the presence of this gene will indicate a 60% chance of going bald by the age of 40. The absence of the gene results in an 85% chance of not going bald by the age of 40.
Women who take the HairDX test are provided with a CAG score. This score helps analyze the risk of developing female pattern hair loss. A larger CAG score indicates a low occurrence and risk of female pattern hair loss. A smaller CAG score will indicate a greater likelihood of significant hair loss. The degree of hair loss is defined in the Ludwig Scale grade II or III.
The Sure HairDX test is for those who have not yet lost their hair, as it will effectively predict the risk of hair loss for both men and women. This empowers the customer to explore solutions and better manage their hair loss. The advance notice provided by the Sure HairDX genetic test could provide enough genetic predisposition information to explore this option before hair loss becomes too advanced.
Hair loss treatments include: The Hairmax laser comb, Propecia®, Surethik scalp cleansers, DHT blocking serums, instant hair fibers and surgical and non-surgical hair replacement solutions. For information on the causes of hair loss and hair loss solutions visit www.surehair.com and schedule your own private consultation and complimentary scalp analysis.

Natural Hair Regrowth

November 19th, 2009

Before you opt for drugs or surgery as a solution to prevent hair loss, try using natural hair regrowth solutions. In most cases, the natural products are able to arrest hair fall and improve the overall hair health. Traditionally, natural products, such as aloe vera, rosemary and jojoba oil, were used to keep the hair dense and shiny. Even today, these natural products are used in various hair regrowth solutions to stimulate hair growth. Massaging and exercising are also effective natural hair regrowth techniques.

Natural Hair Regrowth: Applying Natural Products

Some of the effective and popular natural hair regrowth solutions used today include:

Rosemary and Sage: These herbs are mainly used as tonics and stimulants. A concoction of these two herbs, with peach leaf, nettle and burdock in boiling water, when used to wash hair helps prevent hair loss and stimulates natural hair regrowth.

Burdock, Nettle and Cayenne: These herbs work together to remove body toxins and stimulate hair regrowth.

Spirulina: Spirulina is a storehouse of nutrients, which include predigested proteins, amino acids, chlorophyll, essential fatty acids, Vitamin A, E and B complex and beta-carotene. This makes Spirulina an essential ingredient of all natural hair regrowth solutions.

Kelp: It includes the large, brown seaweeds that are rich in around 30 vital minerals. Kelp is mainly used as a dietary supplement and helps prevent hair loss and hair thinning.

Jojoba Oil: The best remedy to control dandruff, it also enhances hair growth. Jojoba oil is useful for people with hypoallergenic skin, since it is also a great moisturizer.

Henna: It is a natural conditioner that helps maintain healthy hair and prevents hair breakage. Henna heals the hair shaft by repairing and sealing the cuticle. It also cures the scalp of fungal infections and allergies.

Natural Hair Regrowth: Massages and Exercises

Massages and exercises aid natural hair regrowth because:

Massages: Massaging your scalp every day for at least a couple of minutes helps enhance blood flow to the hair follicles and supports hair growth.

Exercises: Exercising is not directly related to hair growth. However, regular doses of exercise benefit the body, including the scalp and hair. Regular exercises also improve oxygen supply to the cells and aids digestion. Improved digestion results in enhanced nutrient absorption into the body and consequently, the growth of healthy hair.

Laser Comb Regrowth and Use

August 29th, 2009

Laser Comb

The use of laser technology has graduated from their applicability in sports medicine and ophthalmology to the domains of hair strengthening and hair loss prevention. The laser comb is a product that utilizes laser technology to restore health, lustre, sheen and volume to the natural hair. The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approves laser comb as a safe technology.

Laser Comb: Advantages
Here are certain benefits of using laser comb for hair growth:

· Convenient to use, with no known side effects.
· Use thrice a week, 15 minutes at a time, to produce visible results.
· It is a home treatment, which means it can be used in the privacy of our homes.
· Positive results within a few months of usage.

Laser Comb: How it Works
The laser comb deploys a specific wavelength of light to energize the hair, which results in better growth phase for the hair. Most users reported thicker and fuller hair, as a result of using laser comb.

The comb delivers the nourishing effects of Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) to the hair follicles. The comb produces a beam of light which pierces the targeted cells, saturating them with the necessary energy. The blood supply to the hair follicles also increases, stimulating hair growth. You can compare this process to the recharging of a battery.

Laser Comb: How to Use
The technique of using laser comb is somewhat different from that of a regular comb. Place the laser comb flat on your head and deploy the glide method i.e. place it on a specific spot on your scalp and gently glide it back half an inch after regular intervals. Move from the front of your scalp to the back, and then repeat the process moving the comb in the opposite direction.

Laser Comb: Safety Features
A quality laser comb includes safety features, such as frequency alert, proximity detection, session management and computer-managed exposure programs. It produces a power level of energy that is safe, harmless and effective.

Laser Comb: Usage Tips
· For those below 18 years of age, consult a physician before using the laser comb.
· Wash your hair regularly while using the laser comb. This would ensure absence of hindrances in the way of the laser light reaching the hair follicles.
· Clean your laser comb with a damp cloth before and after use.
· Use gentle, sulfate-free shampoos and hair care products on your scalp while using the laser comb.
