If your hair seems to have stopped growing or has started to fall out, you are not alone. Growing slowly, shrinking once hair loss they are all common concerns and accepted as a fact of life for many, but there is a solution—red light therapy.
Why hair growth slows down
A way of life
Malnutrition can deplete follicles of essential proteins, vitamins and minerals needed to promote growth, while high levels of stress and lack of sleep can increase levels of cortisol, a stress hormone known to disrupt the hair growth cycle and reduce blood supply to the follicle.
Genetics
Genetics determine your sensitivity to DHT (dihydrotestosterone), a hormone known to cause the follicle to shrink and the hair to grow shorter and shorter. This sensitivity is more common in men than women, as female sex hormones help balance the effect of DHT and maintain the hair growth cycle.
Skin care
The health of your scalp affects hair growth. A scalp that is dry, inflamed, or clogged with dead skin cells, oil and product build-up can lead to reduced growth, as the follicles cannot function effectively. Strong hairstyles or the use of chemically heavy products can damage the follicle and leave the strands vulnerable to breakage and the appearance of thinning.
Natural ways to promote hair growth
Natural hair growth techniques focus on improving scalp health and creating a supportive environment for follicles to thrive.
Nutritious food
A healthy, balanced diet ensures that the follicles are supplied with the essential nutrients needed to function. This includes vitamins, minerals and protein (hair is made almost entirely of a fibrous protein called keratin).
Scalp massage
Just a few minutes of gentle scalp massage a day helps to strengthen blood circulation, which increases blood flow and provides the hair roots with oxygen and nutrients essential for growth.
Reducing stress and improving sleep
Both managing stress levels and prioritizing sleep are key strategies to reduce cortisol levels and activate the body’s resting state, where follicles can repair and regenerate, preparing them for healthy growth.
But, if you’re looking for a high-tech solution, look no further than the red light treatment to restore hair confidence, without the need for expensive appointments or invasive treatments.
How red light therapy stimulates hair growth
As the red wavelengths of light penetrate the scalp, the light energy is absorbed by the cells with stimulating and energizing effects, improving follicle function and leading to increased hair growth:
Cells provide energy
Red light waves give follicles the ability to produce new, healthy growth, while stimulating inactive ones.
To increase the cycle of hair growth
This added energy allows the follicles to stay in the anagen (growth) phase of the hair growth cycle. This means that hair can grow longer and the shedding phase is delayed.
Improving circulation
Red light therapy improves circulation, improves blood flow to the follicles, brings essential nutrients to induce a longer growth phase.
