I used to regard the term ‘Chronic Telogen Effluvium‘ as somewhat of a “non-diagnosis”; a label provided where the Practitioner really had no idea as to its cause. I’ve begun to re-think my previous skepticism and now believe these hair sheds are a very early indicator of impending hormonal-metabolic collapse.

We live in an Age where the most comprehensive information is only a few keystrokes away. This results in many people trawling the internet looking for ‘cures’ for anything from hair loss to heart attacks. And for every ailment there seems to be a website advertising a ’solution’.

This is not the Blog I had intended to introduce my association with the award-winning Dermaray Personal Laser System….

Tragically the brilliant designer + manufacturer of Dermaray Systems – Nick Balgowan – succumbed to depression + (I suppose) the stress of his work and took his own life.

When a woman (of any age) is distressed over thinning or excessively shedding hair it may often be difficult to find the right answers for her. Here are some recent testimonials from women who have appreciated my approach to their respective problems:

Low level laser light therapy (LLLT) has been the hi-tech, so-called ‘wonder’ treatment for hair loss + scalp problems in Australia for more than a decade.

Earlier this year I applied for some Australian Federal Govt. funding to prove what I have long (anecdotally) known - Alopecia areata (AA) can be caused by food allergies (Gluten - the main protein wheat + Dairy) in greater 90% of young children at first presentation.

Readers may wonder why I’ve posted this list of behaviours + traits to develop within our individual characters. There’s nothing new here …this simple method of personal self-discipline + relating to others as you would wish for yourself has been extolled by every philosopher + ‘pop’ psychologist since the days of Jesus + his Disciples (not that they were ‘pop’ psychologists!!).

Scalp rollers or ’scourers’ are now being sold online, and by some commercial hair loss centres as an application enhancer for Minoxidil topical solution.

I cannot mention them by name because every time I do I am presented with a ‘shut your mouth’ demand from their lawyers….

It would be somewhat amusing if I wasn’t left with such unease for those women seeking treatment: Sean Buckley - CEO + advertising ‘face’ for Ultra Tune automotive repairs is now also CEO of Ultra Hair - Hair Replacement Company…
