"The basic premise of the event is that hunters hunt rattlesnakes from the surrounding environment all across West Texas, and bring them into the roundup for the weekend. And during the roundup, these snakes are kept in a pit and then, one by one, beheaded and skinned in front of in front of audiences." - Elizabeth MeLampy Elizabeth MeLampy is a lawyer dedicated to animal rights and protection, and her passion for this work shines through in her latest book, Forget the Camel, the Madcap World of Animal Festivals and What They Say About Being Human . To research the book, Elizabeth traveled across the country, immersing herself in a wide range of animal festivals — from the Iditarod dog sled race to the rattlesnake roundup in Sweetwater, Texas. Elizabeth examines these festivals as revealing microcosms of our broader relationship with animals. Whether it's rattlesnake hunts, frog-jumping contests, ostrich races, or groundhog celebrations, these events reflect the ways humans use animals to express cultural identity, community pride, and historical traditions. Yet beneath the pageantry and excitement lies a deeper question: Is our fascination with these spectacles worth the toll it takes on the animals involved? With compassion and insight, Elizabeth invites readers to consider whether there’s a more ethical and empathetic way to honor our stories — one that respects both animals and the traditions they inspire. Please listen, share and read, Forget the Camel. It will be released on April 8th, 2025. https://apollopublishers.com/index.php/forget-the-camel/…

Hair Loss in Hollywood | Tyler Morehead - 056

Hair Loss in His Early 20s

Male pattern hair loss can begin earlier than you might think – in Tyler’s case, his hair loss began in his early 20s, right as he began to pursue his dreams in Hollywood. Like any aspiring actor, Tyler went to plenty of auditions, and seeing the other young actors show up with their perfect hair was tough on his confidence. Tyler still landed amazing roles in commercials and on soap operas like Days of Our Lives, and suddenly, his hairline was on display in front of the harsh camera lights. Even though his hair and makeup teams were able to help him look and feel his best, he knew that wasn’t a sustainable permanent solution.

Finding the Right Hair Loss Solution

Hair loss is a difficult experience for anyone to go through, and we all handle the emotions of it differently. As Tyler got older and his hair loss got more advanced, he knew the solutions he had used in the past were no longer going to give him the effect he wanted. Over time, he became numb to the emotional impacts of his hair loss. He was in search of a permanent solution and a way forward, and decided to shave his head. Because he had become so desensitized to his emotions, he didn’t notice how shaving his head had affected him emotionally, but during a phone call, his mother noticed that something wasn’t quite right.

Hair Systems - Tyler’s Permanent Solution

Trying a new hair loss solution can be difficult. Tyler didn’t know what to expect when he first reached out to HairClub, but he didn’t have anything to lose. When he tried on his first hair system, he felt the magic. Upon seeing himself in the mirror with his system on for the first time, he finally felt like himself again, and the weight of the emotions of his hair loss was lifted. Now, Tyler has been using a hair system for many years, and as he ages and his beard grows a little bit more gray, the stylists at HairClub adjust his system to match. For Tyler, he foresees wearing a system for the rest of his life. He feels younger and more confident with hair.

Women's History of Hair Loss Solutions | Kevin Rolston - 055 8:51

12 days ago8:51

8:51

In honor of Women’s History Month, this week we’re focusing on the history of women’s hair loss treatments and solutions, from ancient times to cutting-edge modern-day solutions. Women’s History of Hair Loss Treatments Hair has always been tied to identity, beauty, and confidence, which is why hair loss in women hasn’t always been discussed openly. Ancient Egyptians used animal fats and oils in hopes of stimulating hair growth, while Roman women wore wigs often crafted from real human hair. Some of history’s so-called remedies were far from glamorous—Cleopatra’s hair loss treatment reportedly included bear grease and ground horse teeth. Even into the early 20th century, women had few options beyond hairpieces and home remedies. It wasn’t until more recent decades that medical advancements paved the way for effective treatments tailored to women’s hair loss. Causes of Women’s Hair Loss Hair loss in women often differs from men’s hair loss in a few key ways. Instead of receding hair lines around the forehead and temples or crown, women’s hair loss typically manifests as diffuse thinning, widening part lines, and decreased volume. The causes can vary—hormonal changes due to pregnancy, menopause, or PCOS can trigger noticeable shedding. Nutritional deficiencies, such as low iron or vitamin D, can weaken hair, while stress and autoimmune disorders may contribute to excessive hair loss. Genetic factors also play a role, as female pattern hair loss tends to develop gradually over time. The good news is that understanding the cause is the first step toward finding the right hair loss solution. Science-Backed Hair Loss Solutions for Women Today’s treatments offer real hope for women experiencing hair loss. Minoxidil remains the only FDA-approved topical treatment for female hair loss, helping extend the hair’s growth phase for thicker, healthier strands. Oral medications like spironolactone can help balance hormones for those whose hair loss is driven by excess androgens. Low-level laser therapy (LLLT) is another promising option, using light to stimulate hair follicles and improve scalp circulation. PRP therapy, which involves injecting platelet-rich plasma into the scalp, has gained popularity for its potential to encourage regrowth. For those seeking instant confidence, hair systems and toppers provide a natural-looking, long-term solution. Innovations like Xtrands from HairClub seamlessly integrate additional strands into existing hair, offering an immediate volume boost. Finding the Right Solution for You If you’re struggling with women’s hair loss, you’re not alone. Over 50% of women will experience some degree of hair thinning in their lifetime, but there are more options than ever before. Whether it’s a medical treatment, a cosmetic solution, or a combination of both, the best approach depends on the cause of your hair loss and what fits your lifestyle. To hear firsthand stories from women who have found success, check out our past episodes featuring Meg Weatherman and Carol Combs (links below). No matter where you are on your hair journey, solutions exist—and there’s hope. Resources Book a Free Consultation today! Thanks for listening to HairPod. We hope you enjoyed this episode.

How Menopause Contributes to Hair Loss | Angela Fields - 054 22:09

19 days ago22:09

22:09

Hair loss is a deeply personal and often emotional experience, especially when it happens unexpectedly. For many women, hair thinning begins during perimenopause or menopause, yet the topic remains widely overlooked. In this special Women's History Month episode of HairPod, we sit down with Angela Fields, founder of a curly hair product line, to discuss her personal journey with hair thinning, her eventual diagnosis of CCCA alopecia, and the solutions she discovered. Angela’s experience sheds light on the challenges of hormonal hair loss and the steps women can take to reclaim both their hair and confidence. How Vitamin Deficiencies and Hormones Affect Hair Loss Angela first noticed her hair thinning in 2017 when her part began to widen, revealing more scalp than before. This early sign of hair loss led her to her doctor, where lab tests revealed she had a significant vitamin D deficiency—something she hadn’t previously considered. Vitamin D plays a crucial role in hair follicle health, and a deficiency can contribute to both hair loss and fatigue. Supplementing with vitamin D helped restore some of her hair’s fullness, but as she entered menopause, new challenges emerged. Her hair loss became more pronounced, leading her to seek the expertise of a dermatologist, who diagnosed her with CCCA alopecia, a condition that causes scarring of the scalp and makes regrowth more difficult. Effective Hair Regrowth Treatments and Lifestyle Changes Finding a treatment plan that worked required time, patience, and a comprehensive approach. Angela began by incorporating key supplements such as Nutrafol, folic acid, vitamin C, and iron to support hair regrowth. But supplementation alone wasn’t enough—because of the scarring caused by CCCA alopecia, her dermatologist recommended a series of scalp injections to break down scar tissue and allow new hair to push through. This process took months, but the results were encouraging. Daily Habits for Hair Regrowth Beyond medical treatments, Angela also adjusted her daily habits. She emphasizes the importance of maintaining a clean scalp by shampooing regularly, as product buildup and excess oil can contribute to hair thinning. She also warns against wearing tight or glued-in hairstyles, which can put stress on the hair follicles and lead to long-term damage. Managing stress is another key factor, as high cortisol levels can accelerate hair loss. Through exercise, proper sleep, and self-care, Angela found ways to support her overall well-being while working toward healthier hair. Finding Support and Breaking the Stigma of Hair Loss Hair loss can feel isolating, but Angela stresses that no one has to go through it alone. She encourages women to seek support through online communities, Facebook groups, and even local meetups dedicated to hair loss. Speaking with a knowledgeable dermatologist who understands different hair types and traditional styling methods is another crucial step in finding the right treatment.

Best Haircuts for Hair Loss: Expert Advice | Craig the Barber - 053 21:04

26 days ago21:04

21:04

When you start losing your hair, your barber or hair stylist is the first line of defense to help you look sharp and feel your best. In this episode, I sit down with master barber Craig Whitely – better known as Craig the Barber – to talk about all things grooming from the barber’s perspective. He’s got all the tips, from the best hair loss styles to the tools that really work (and the ones that don’t). Hair Loss Styles: The Right Cut Matters Hair loss happens to so many of us, and many barbers have tricks for making it less noticeable. To achieve the appearance of a full head of hair, Craig recommends subtle fades, softer hairlines, and strategic styling. What works best for you will depend on where your hair loss is most obvious, your hair texture, and your face shape, so make sure you’re working with a barber who can take all of those things into account. Of course, a fresh haircut will mask the symptoms of mild or early hair loss, but stopping (or, in some cases, reversing) hair loss takes more advanced tools. Products for Hair Loss Popular hair loss solutions come in many shapes and sizes, and Craig discusses some of the ones that people seek out, including fibers that attach to the existing hairs, which can give a fuller appearance (as long as they don’t get wet). Many quick fixes come with their caveats, so it’s important to do your research or talk to a hair loss specialist to see what’s going to work best for you. Craig has seen some good results for his clients who use minoxidil - in the majority of cases, it helps clients maintain their current hair length and thickness. Hair Health: Creating Good Daily Habits Stopping hair loss starts with healthy daily habits. Craig suggests starting with a daily routine that includes keeping the scalp stimulated and moisturized. Grooming creams can help keep the scalp hydrated, which supports hair follicle health. Regular exfoliation also helps remove product and skin buildup, which can stifle hair follicles. Craig also recommends choosing a hairstyle that supports long-term hair health, which means avoiding heavier hairstyles or managing the weight of heavy hair carefully so the follicle isn’t experiencing consistent tension. Hair Loss and Confidence: Find an Ally Hair loss happens in stages. No matter where you are in your hair journey, there are actions you can take today to care for your hair and boost your confidence. Working with someone who understands hair loss can help you figure out what that action might be for you. Professionals like Craig remind us that no one has to face hair loss alone, and there’s always something you can do to feel your best. Resources Book a Free Consultation today!

Exploring Hair Systems with Influencer Rachel Rivera 21:31

5 weeks ago21:31

21:31

This week, I sat down with Rachel Rivera to unravel the mystery surrounding hair systems. We took an in-depth look at how hair systems work and whether they look and feel as natural as they claim to. Rachel shares the secrets behind how stylists like her achieve the seamless, natural looks that hair systems are so famous for. Hair Systems: Not Your Grandpa’s Hair Loss Solution Hair loss is nothing new, and hair loss solutions have been around for a long time. As the technology continues to improve, so does the overall look, feel, and experience of using something like a hair system to achieve the look you desire. While traditional hair replacement tools looked heavy and artificial, today’s hair systems blend seamlessly with your natural hair and scalp. Advancements in both the materials and adhesives used have made hair systems more comfortable, breathable, and durable than ever. Hair Loss Stylists to the Rescue One of the benefits of using a hair system is that they can be completely customized to match every individual’s hair color, texture, and preferred style. Before creating these unique hair systems, stylists meet with new clients to talk about everything from their hair color to their lifestyle – it all gets taken into account. Personalization goes beyond just ensuring the hair looks good, too. Materials, like adhesives, can be adjusted to ensure total efficacy and comfort. Learn to Use a Hair System Hair loss stylists like Rachel can help educate you on how to make sure your hair system keeps looking good between visits to the salon. From showing you the right shampoos to use when you wash your new hair to teaching you how to reapply in case you experience any lifting, your hair loss expert is there for you. If you work with a company like HairClub, you even have access to salons all over the country, should you wish to get a touch-up while you’re traveling. Whether you’re certain that a hair system is the next step for you or you’re just curious about learning more, a great first step is to reach out to a hair loss professional to get more information.

Eat Your Way to Healthy Hair: Hair Loss Tips | Julie Olson - 051 30:21

6 weeks ago30:21

30:21

In this episode, I sit down with triple-board certified nutritionist Julie Olson to discuss how we can hack our nutrition and achieve optimum hair health. If you’re interested in learning about the building blocks of hair and getting some tips on how we can all improve the strength and fullness of our hair today, look no further! Nutrition and Healthy Hair Julie’s personal experience with hair loss began with a stressful experience and a fast-paced lifestyle. When she stopped working her corporate job, she saw it had a massive impact on her health. This was the catalyst for beginning her journey as a nutritionist, focusing on making targeted changes to her diet to restore her hair naturally. Her experience serves as a reminder that proper nutrition is key in any hair loss prevention strategy. Essential Nutrients for Hair Growth Protein is critical for healthy hair. Hair is primarily made up of keratin, a type of protein, and without adequate protein intake, hair growth can slow down. Other vital nutrients for hair health include iron, zinc, and omega-3 fatty acids. Julie cautions us against believing everything we hear and see online, however – in her experience, biotin isn’t something we need to supplement in our diets, despite the hype. The most important thing to do is ensure you’re getting a balanced diet and rely on supplements only if you know you have a deficiency in a particular nutrient. Foods to Avoid for Better Hair Health Some foods actually contribute to hair loss. Julie discusses how highly processed foods, especially processed meats like hot dogs, can contribute to inflammation and nutrient imbalances that may worsen hair loss. Processed meats and fried foods contain unhealthy fats that can increase inflammation, while sugary snacks and refined carbs spike blood sugar levels, which can impact our hormones. Dehydration can also impact hair in a negative way, so ingesting anything that dehydrates you isn’t recommended. Making mindful food choices is one of the best ways to support hair health naturally. Hair Loss Prevention – Holistically Hair loss isn’t just about what you eat—it’s about how well your body absorbs nutrients and maintains balance. Stress, gut health, and hydration all play a role in whether your body can properly use the nutrients you consume. Julie emphasizes the importance of looking at your health holistically rather than relying on quick-fix supplements. By focusing on a balanced diet, stress management, and overall wellness, you can create the optimal conditions for healthy, thriving hair. Resources Book a Free Consultation today!

Ways to Cope: Trichotillomania and Anxiety | Meg Weatherman - 050 27:38

7 weeks ago27:38

27:38

This week on HairPod, I spoke with Meg Weatherman about living with trichotillomania, a mental health disorder that caused her to start pulling out her own hair in the second grade. Listen in to hear how she manages this condition and how she has found hope through support and self-care. Understanding Trichotillomania Trichotillomania (TTM) is a mental health condition classified under obsessive-compulsive and related disorders. For Meg, it started as what seemed like a harmless habit—tugging at her eyelashes. However, as the behavior escalated, she began pulling her hair more frequently. Neither Meg nor her parents initially understood the condition, making it difficult to find effective interventions. Many people with trichotillomania struggle with self-blame, but research indicates that TTM is rooted in mental health, often linked to underlying conditions such as generalized anxiety disorder. The Emotional Toll of Hair Loss Hair loss, regardless of the cause, can be an emotionally challenging experience. It often leads to feelings of isolation and confusion, particularly for individuals who develop trichotillomania at a young age. Meg began experiencing noticeable hair loss at just eight years old, leading to additional struggles at school. The lack of awareness about trichotillomania contributed to bullying and name-calling from classmates, further increasing her anxiety and worsening her symptoms. This cycle continued until she sought help from mental health professionals. Meg encourages parents and educators to foster empathy among children, as people struggling with hair loss—especially due to mental health disorders—often face silent battles. Solutions for Hair Loss: Trichotillomania Finding the right hair loss solution for trichotillomania is a highly personal process, requiring trial and error. Meg experimented with various solutions before discovering what made her feel most confident. She prefers **hair toppers**, which provide the coverage she desires while allowing her to remove them as needed to care for her scalp. Beyond external solutions, self-care plays a crucial role in her journey. Prioritizing wellness, mental health support, and self-confidence-building activities have helped her manage her condition more effectively. While no single solution works for everyone, a combination of personalized hair restoration options and mental health treatment can make a significant difference. Meg’s story sheds light on the challenges of living with trichotillomania and highlights the importance of awareness, support, and self-acceptance. With the right approach, individuals struggling with TTM can regain confidence and take meaningful steps toward healing. Resources Book a Free Consultation today! Thanks for listening to HairPod.

The Truth About Topical Hair Loss Treatments | Dr. Ross Kopelman - 049 24:36

8 weeks ago24:36

24:36

Topical hair loss treatments are one of the first options many people turn to, but it’s not easy to separate effective solutions from marketing hype. Hair restoration surgeon Dr. Ross Kopelman, joined me on HairPod to discuss the effectiveness of topical solutions and how to determine if they’re the right fit for you. Do Topical Hair Loss Treatments Work for Everyone? Topical hair loss solutions, such as serums and leave-in treatments, can be effective for both men and women with mild hair loss/thinning. However, these treatments require a long-term commitment to see results due to the natural hair growth cycle. Dr. Ross Kopelman recommends topical minoxidil for many of his clients. Still, he notes that individuals experiencing aggressive hair loss may not get the results they want from any topical treatment alone. The Role of Natural Topical Solutions for Hair Loss Natural hair loss remedies are growing in popularity, with rosemary oil being one of the most talked-about options. Dr. Kopelman shared that studies comparing rosemary oil to 2% minoxidil show promising results, especially for individuals unable to use stronger medications, such as those who are pregnant or breastfeeding. However, he cautioned that natural solutions, while beneficial, do not address one of the root causes of hair loss: dihydrotestosterone (DHT). For some, combining natural remedies with other treatments may offer a balanced approach. Treating Hair Loss Holistically Topical hair loss treatments and natural remedies can play a role in managing hair loss, but they’re only part of the equation. Dr. Kopelman shared the importance of determining the root cause of hair loss and addressing this in your treatment plan. He also touched on advanced options like oral finasteride and dutasteride, which block DHT, and oral minoxidil, which prolongs the hair growth phase. While finasteride and minoxidil are the only FDA-approved treatments for hair loss, these drugs can come with some side effects. Working with a hair restoration professional can help you minimize or avoid side effects entirely. Can Hair Loss Be Cured? Hair loss cures are a topic many people are interested in, and Dr. Kopelman stresses that at his time, there are no permanent cures for hair loss. Advances in genetic modification and cloning may eventually revolutionize the field, but for now, treatments like minoxidil and finasteride remain the most effective tools. Dr. Kopelman’s insights remind us that while hair loss treatments have come a long way, finding the right solution requires patience, professional guidance, and a personalized approach.

Hair Loss & Hashimoto's Disease | Emily Kiberd - 048 22:19

9 weeks ago22:19

22:19

Is thyroid dysfunction causing your hair loss? In this episode, I sat down with Dr. Emily Kiberd, an expert in thyroid health. She talked about this little organ’s role in all of the processes in our bodies, symptoms of thyroid dysfunction, and practical things you can start doing today to improve the health of your thyroid. Thyroid Function and Hair Health The thyroid gland is a butterfly-shaped organ responsible for secreting hormones that regulate every metabolic process in the body. Common symptoms of thyroid disorders include fatigue, difficulty losing weight, brain fog, feeling cold, and hair loss. In Dr. Kiberd’s experience, many women have experienced symptoms of thyroid dysfunction for as many as ten years before receiving adequate treatment. Is a Thyroid Disorder Causing Your Hair Loss? Diagnosing hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism comes down to some very simple blood tests, but it sometimes takes a specialist to recognize the symptoms as thyroid-related. Hashimoto’s Disease is an autoimmune thyroid disorder that presents in 90% of people with hypothyroidism. Stress, hormonal changes, nutritional deficiencies, and environmental factors can trigger these issues in people who have a genetic predisposition to thyroid problems, and reducing the amount of stressors on the body can reduce symptoms, including hair thinning. Improve Your Thyroid and Hair Health Dr. Kiberd recommends starting with dietary adjustments, proper sleep, stress management, and avoiding overtraining to help manage thyroid health. Nutrient-dense foods like proteins and vegetables are great for the thyroid, and it’s important to identify sources of stress in your environment that could be hindering hormone production in the thyroid. Dr. Kiberd recommends taking good care of yourself as a start, but working with a professional will ultimately lead to better results and faster hair regrowth, if that is the cause of your hair loss.

Miracle Hair Loss Cures Debunked | Dr. Phipps - 047 20:15

10 weeks ago20:15

20:15

Hair loss “miracle cures” are all over social media, and the before-and-afters all look too good to be true. This week on HairPod, I’m speaking with hair loss expert Dr. Phipps to break down what works, what doesn’t, and the science behind it. Hair Loss Cures - Hope or Hype? Hair loss can be an emotional experience for many people, and “miracle” hair loss cures seem to be on the rise. The number of options can be overwhelming, and if you don’t know the science, it’s tough to separate proven products from fads and trends. Professionals in the industry are your first line of defense against products that overpromise and underdeliver – working with someone who can help you understand your specific type of hair loss will save you money and heartbreak in the long run (see our resources section for a link to a free consultation!) Stem Cell Therapy for Hair Loss Is stem cell therapy a safe and effective way to fight hair loss? Dr. Phipps can’t say for sure, as this hair loss treatment method has not been cleared by the FDA. Investigation into this is ongoing, as stem cells have been shown to have regenerative properties when used in other types of therapy. She strongly cautions anyone who seeks this type of treatment to only work with medical doctors to ensure that there is some sort of overarching regulatory practice. At this time, there is no guarantee that stem cell treatment for hair loss is effective or safe. Are Essential Oils Effective for Treating Hair Loss? Natural treatments for hair loss are trending on social media, but do the results live up to the hype? Dr. Phipps explains that some botanicals, like pumpkin seed oil and rosemary oil, often have stimulating properties for our hair follicles, which can encourage hair growth. These treatments can have some impact for people who are experiencing diverse thinning but probably aren’t going to regrow hair on a bald spot. Dr. Phipps also cautions that cheaper essential oils probably are not potent enough to have a significant aesthetic effect, as the process of distilling these oils is very costly. Supplements for Hair Health and Growth Supplements and vitamins are an important part of overall hair health but aren’t a good solitary option for regrowing hair or slowing hair loss. This depends significantly on the type of hair loss a person is experiencing and the quality of the supplements. Working with an expert in hair growth (not just someone selling supplements online) is essential to ensure the supplements themselves have undergone testing to ensure their effectiveness. When used as a part of a broader regimen, supplements can improve hair growth by strengthening hair shafts and improving health overall. The Best Treatments for Hair Loss The best hair loss treatment plan takes into account the cause of an individual’s hair loss and uses a holistic approach. Proven medications like finasteride make up the most effective and safest options for hair regrowth and retention, and when included as part of a regimen, can yield great results for many people. Speaking with a professional can help determine whether they’ll work for you and what options are available if they do not. Dr. Phipps advises that treatments that look “too good to be true” usually are, but urges people not to lose hope, as there are great treatments out there. Resources Book a Free Consultation today!

Dr. Phipps explains why about 10% of patients need a second medication, dutasteride, to fight their male pattern hair loss. Nutrition's Impact on Hair Loss with Eva Proudman Your diet plays a huge role in how much hair you lose and how fast. In episode 24 with Eva Proudman, I learned just how important it can be.

If you’ve been noticing hair loss after changing your diet or rapid weight loss, check out her episode using the link below. Joey Logano’s Hair System Journey NASCAR legend Joey Logano shared his hair loss journey in episode 1, and as a hair system user myself, I was curious to know how far he pushes his system and whether he worries if it will come off while he’s driving in a hot stock car. From initial doubts to confidently racing in extreme temperatures, Joey talks about how his hair system stays put even under the hottest conditions. The Science Behind Laser Hair Therapy with Dr. Angela Phipps Laser hair therapy was another highlight from episode 42, where Dr. Phipps explained how low-level light therapy can stimulate hair follicle cells, improving hair health and promoting regrowth.

Dealing with Hair Loss During the Holidays | Dr. Angie Phipps - 044 20:01

In this episode of HairPod, we brought Dr. Phipps back in to share her knowledge with us once again! She came on the podcast to tell us how the holiday season can impact our hair, and what we can start doing now to improve our hair and scalp health. Reducing Stress-Related Hair Loss Hair loss during the holidays has a few culprits, but one of the main ones is stress. Sure, the holidays bring us a lot of joy, but the impacts of travel, hosting friends or family, attending social events, and gift-giving all add up. Dr. Phipps emphasizes that it is the prolonged stress we experience during the winter season that causes hair loss and not the typical day-to-day stress we all experience. Stress may not cause hair loss in everyone, but people who are prone to male- or female-pattern hair loss may see an increase in their hair loss during stressful periods. Other Causes of Hair Loss in Winter Winter-related health concerns can have an impact on our overall hair health. Many people experience more dryness during the winter (this, of course, will depend on your climate), and this can lead to dry and flaky scalps. If dead skin builds up on the scalp, it can become difficult for hair follicles to work in a healthy, normal way, so cleansing the scalp and even moisturizing it can help with scalp and hair health. Dr. Phipps also touches on how diet affects hair health – she says they don’t see many negative impacts from people eating a more rich or sugary diet during the holidays, but diet drugs after the holidays can increase hair loss in some people. What to Do About Winter Hair Loss If you want to make sure your hair looks healthy and full in all of your holiday pictures this year, but you’re concerned about hair loss, Dr. Phipps said it’s good to start treating your hair loss issues early. Of course, it can take a few months with certain treatments to start seeing results. To get you through the holiday season, Dr. Phipps recommends HairClub’s Xtrands, a process that weaves fibers into your existing hair to increase density and volume. The consultation to assess if Xtrands will work for your unique situation is free. Resources Book a Free Consultation today! Thanks for listening to HairPod. We hope you enjoyed this episode.

Holiday Hair Hacks | Kevin Rolston - 043 10:39

Ready or not, we are now officially entering the holiday season! In this episode, you’re going to hear some hair hacks to help you get through the holiday season. Attend holiday parties, work events, and all of those evenings with the in-laws with your head held high, even if you’re going through hair loss! Hair Health - Cleanse and Moisturize Hair care routines should be adjusted seasonally, so if you haven’t started your winter routine, let this be your sign. Many people struggle with maintaining enough moisture in their skin and hair during the winter, so adding a moisturizing shampoo to your regimen might be the answer for you. Keeping your scalp clean is an essential part of hair health and hair growth, so if you’re worried about thinning hair, find a shampoo that sets your hair follicles up for success. And don’t forget to stay hydrated! Add Volume and Texture to Your Hair Thinning hair can be disguised in the short term by boosting the volume of the hair you do have – to an extent! Of course, it’s best to figure out why your hair is thinning and address the root cause of the issue, but if you have a party to get to tonight, calling your dermatologist or trichologist is probably off the table. In the meantime, using a texturizing spray or powder at the root of your hair can help create lift and give your hair a full appearance, even if it’s not as thick as it used to be. Styling Your Hair for Hair Loss Your hairstyle can significantly impact how thick or full your hair appears to be. If you haven’t seen a professional stylist who works with clients with hair loss, it’s worth reaching out and at least having a consultation with them. They can help you choose a style that makes the most of the hair you have, and they can teach you what to do at home to achieve the look you want. Just remember, even if they teach you methods that use heat tools, always use them on a low setting and use heat protectant, as heat is the enemy of hydrated hair! Minimize Continued Hair Loss Hair loss generally doesn’t just stop all on its own, so you may have to take steps to hold on to the hair you do have. In Episode 034, we talked about using treatments to stop losing hair loss caused by male pattern baldness, so if you haven’t heard that episode, check it out! If you’re still in the process of figuring out what’s causing your hair loss and you want to minimize it in the meantime, many people have had success with using silk and satin pillowcases or hair bonnets (for longer hair) overnight to reduce friction, which ultimately reduces breakage and can help you keep your hair looking full. Choose a Hair Loss Solution that Suits Your Needs Hair loss solutions are not a one-size-fits-all thing. First, you need to understand why you are losing your hair. Then you can do your research and consult with professionals that can help you determine what solution is right for you. No matter what the cause, there are options for you that can help you look and feel amazing. If you’d like to talk to someone about what hair loss options are right for you, book a consultation free of charge . Resources Book a Free Consultation today! Thanks for listening to HairPod.
