Episode 58: Hair Peace, Bed Peace with Taylor Morozova, hair stylist and beauty expert
Manage episode 296110232 series 2680681
This is a podcast about mental health. And while it may seem trivial, I suppose, hair loss is one of the most psychologically and emotionally upsetting symptoms that plagues the people who come into my office.
Treating hair loss is also sometimes the bane of my existence. There are so many reasons why hair loss can occur, or why someone may deal with brittle or dry hair. There are so many different TYPEs of hair loss. And, even more difficult, many causes are difficult to reverse, such as hormonal hair loss, and, the reversible causes take time, three to six months at least to see new regrowth.
A few years ago I started to experience hair loss. And, it seemed like almost every patient who came into my office at that time was experiencing the same. There's nothing as confidence-destroying as being asked to solve a problem in others that you haven't found a solution to in yourself. I felt like a fraud. I did, however, manage to get on top of the shedding only to experience more hair loss this year.
Again, I've been able to get on top of it, but again, treating hair loss isn't easy.
One of my go-to gurus for all things hair is Taylor Morozova, a hair stylist, beauty expert (and Jill of All Trades). She's a lake surfer, who now surfs the ocean in Florida, and the host of the Weird Waves Podcast. She works in fashion and owns a hair salon in a doctor's office (which is an important but interesting juxtaposition).
According to Taylor (and I agree) our hair, skin and nails are not just aesthetic aspects of our bodies, their health are key indicators of our body's entire state. Often the first signs of disease or imbalance show up in these superficial organs, and so working with someone who is helping you pay attention to changes in these areas are crucial for supporting your health and preventing disease.
Taylor and I talk about hair loss, hair care, including what products to focus on and how to choose a shampoo regime (hint: natural is not always better!), and whether thickening shampoos or scalp treatments are worth it. We even talk about hair brushes that can support hair growth, and the importance of scalp massage and correctly identifying the cause of hair loss in order to create a plan to treat it.
This is such a cool episode, and I know you'll get something out of it if you struggle with hair loss and slow regrowth.
