About Hair & Scalp Health Consultation (Trichology)
I’m all about finding out why your hair is unhappy, not just masking the problem with the latest fancy shampoo. Most folks come in hoping for a magic fix for hair fall, but trust me, it’s your diagnosis that matters more than any single product. My style is science-driven, never trend-based, and I’ll always explain what’s going on with your scalp and hair in plain language.
What I Do in Our Session
- I ask a lot of questions—about your hair story, food habits, daily stress, and what you use on your head.
- I check your scalp and hair up close to spot patterns of thinning, hair breakage, dandruff, or an oily scalp.
- Sometimes, to get the whole picture, I’ll suggest blood tests to check things like iron, thyroid, or vitamin levels. Only if it makes sense for your case.
What I Usually Help With
- Hair thinning and female pattern hair loss solutions
- Dandruff, itchy scalp, or greasy roots that just won’t quit
- Hair breakage or damage from styling or chemicals
- Traction alopecia, and even early greying
How I Tackle Hair Issues
It’s never just about one thing. I mix medical treatments (like PRP therapy for hair regrowth or medicated lotions) with real-life changes: fixing your hair care routine, tweaking your diet for healthy hair growth, and helping you handle stress.
My Quick Hair Rules
- Wash with lukewarm water and treat your hair gently
- Conditioner goes on the ends, not your scalp
- Don’t rub wet hair or tie it up tight
- Clean scalp is non-negotiable for strong hair
No overnight miracles, but we’ll build a plan that actually makes sense for your hair. Consistency is what gets you results.
