There are many hair loss solutions available for people experiencing thinning hair or hair loss. In this section we explore the options used by hair loss specialists, including custom hair toppers, wigs, advanced hair prosthetic systems, and other non-surgical hair replacement solutions designed to restore natural-looking fullness. These articles help explain the different approaches available for addressing hair loss and finding the right solution for each individual.
When people notice increased hair shedding, their first instinct is often to look for a quick fix. But the truth is that most effective hair and scalp treatments work best when they are used consistently over time.
Whether you are using scalp treatments, targeted home care, or supportive products like hair growth patches, consistency plays a major role in helping the hair cycle stabilize and recover.
Understanding the Hair Growth Cycle
Hair does not grow continuously. Each strand moves through a cycle that includes a growth phase (anagen), a resting phase (telogen), and eventually a shedding phase. When the balance of this cycle is disrupted, you may notice more hair shedding than usual.
Experiencing hair thinning or loss can be challenging, but understanding the available solutions can help you feel empowered and supported. Two common non-surgical options—hair toppers and wigs—each serve different purposes depending on the extent and location of hair loss. In this post, we’ll break down the key differences in hair toppers vs wigs and help you discover which solution best suits your lifestyle.
How can I slow or stop hair loss and regrow my hair? This question is on the minds of more and more men and women starting at an earlier and earlier age. The key to understanding how to fix hair loss is to recognize it as a hair growth problem rather than a hair loss problem.
We often use anti-aging treatments as an example to answer this question. Today, more than ever, women and men alike are taking better care of their skin at an earlier age. It can be as simple as wearing the right sunscreen in the sun or using the right moisturizer. A skincare routine designed to keep skin supple, youthful, and free of wrinkles and skin spots can also be much more intense. It is easier to prevent and correct skin issues if you begin the anti-aging process early. You will have a harder time correcting the problem the longer you wait. As we care for our skin to prevent aging, we should also use this same philosophy to care for our hair and prevent aging and long-term hair loss.
Hair loss is one of the biggest contributors to stress in our culture, with the most common cause of hair loss being hereditary hair loss. Individuals with hereditary hair loss experience what is called miniaturization of hair. Miniaturization occurs when the hair follicle shrinks in size causing the individual hairs to become smaller and finer. Causes of miniaturization include but are not limited to
stress, DHT, and medications. If nothing is done to treat these miniaturized hairs, the follicle will go away and the hair will be lost for good.
Fight Back Against Miniaturized Hair
You don’t have to stand for miniaturized hair any longer thanks to TricoGlam Home! TricoGlam Home is our revolutionary new light therapy device designed to prevent and treat hair loss at home.

TricoGlam Home is a new, first of its kind red LED light wavelengths designed to more effectively treat hair loss and other hair and scalp problems. The TricoGlam Home is the perfect compliment to a hair and scalp treatment routine.
Laser versus LED
Until now LLLT devices have only used laser diodes that are pinpointed to one area of the scalp and hair. Although the laser diodes are effective, the introduction of the red LED diodes allows for a more dispersed and fuller coverage of the hair and scalp without sacrificing the effectiveness of the light. Ultimately providing a better LLLT solution for your hair and scalp.
Recently, WKYC ran a special report by Senior Health Correspondent Monica Robins, on how 3D printing is changing the game for people who suffer from hair loss.
Monica had the unique opportunity to meet Patty, who 12 years ago was injured in a farming accident causing her scalp to be ripped off from the back of her neck, all the way forward to her eyelids. The violent force of the accident took most of her ears as well.
Often overlooked is the health of our hair and scalp, until something is wrong and symptoms like flaking, itch, excessive hair shedding or hair loss show up.
Eating healthy, exercising and decreasing stress are all steps many of us take to live a longer, healthier life. As a society, we understand the importance of preventative care when it comes to taking care of our bodies. Sometimes conditions that are diagnosed early can be easier to treat.

Isaac Bracha, owner and president of the Hair and Compounds in Los Angeles, California, and a featured hair broker and expert in my book operates a research and development laboratory for replacement hair. He states, “…Replacement hair will best mimic its wearer’s hair if it is extremely close in diameter. Diameter affects the weight of the hair, the way it falls, and other important factors that will become obvious if there is a large discrepancy.” A hair restoration specialist can help determine the best solution for you.
A glimpse into the steps involved in finding the best solution for Maxie’s hair loss
How Maxie’s self-esteem has returned and she lives her life feeling beautiful on the inside and out
When you become a mother, many things in your life change. Your protective instincts kick in, you become an expert in time management, your sleep pattern changes, and so much more. It’s inevitable.
But hair loss is an unpleasantry that only affects some mothers. Our office coordinator Maxie experienced this first-hand after giving birth to her third child. Prior to having kids, she never imagined that hair loss would be a problem for her.
As Maxie describes in our video, she began to notice the changes in her hair’s texture, color and weight. She would find clumps of hair after taking a shower. Like others, she initially attributed this hair loss to aging and shrugged it off as one of life’s natural occurrences. But these changes weren’t caused by age; it was due to having children.

Hair loss for both men and women is common, affecting more than 75% of men and nearly two-thirds of women at some point in their lifetime. For many, any degree of hair loss can be a traumatic experience. This simple truth essentially drives a multi-billion hair loss treatment industry filled with products and treatments claiming to cure hair loss. Understanding hair growth and accurately measuring and diagnosing the cause of hair loss can take the unknown out of treatment and can curb or delay future hair loss.
It is a normal and healthy part of hair growth to lose some hair each day. Men with healthy hair shed between 60 and 80 strands each day, while women normally lose up to 100. But when does it all become too much? Typically, it takes 50% loss in hair density for hair loss to become noticeable to the naked eye. As with any medical condition, early detection can be key in effectively treating hair loss. Once hair loss progresses to a certain point, treatment becomes more difficult and costly in achieving good results.
If you’re wondering if you are experiencing hair loss, the rate at which you are losing hair, or even the effectiveness of a hair loss treatment regimen, wonder no more.
