Prevent Hair Loss and Gain Peace of Mind Before It's too Late

Posted by Marjolein Brugman on Saturday, October 28, 2006

Human hair, which grows inside a hair bulb, deep inside a hair follicle, has a growth cycle that has 3 phases: growth (anagen phase), rest (categen phase) and shedding (telogen phase). The anagen phase is different in every person and lasts 3 to 5 years; the categen phase lasts  2 to 4 weeks and the telogen phase lasts between 3 and 4 months.

During telogen hair begins to grow up and out pushing the old hair out of the follicle and normally 1 in 10 hairs is in this phase at any one time. The new hair emerges from the same opening at the surface of the skin as the old one, and the hair cycle begins again. There are about 10,000 follicles on the human head, each one growing as many as 20 hairs during its lifetime. Each hair grows about 1 cm a month.

Every hair is exposed to many variables throughout its life: the environment, chemicals and shampoos, the processes we apply and the nutrients we eat. Hair loss has become a national concern for both men and women. It does not happen overnight but is often addressed too late.

Research shows that the problem begins slowly, below the scalp, at the root level affecting the quality and thickness of each hair as it grows. It is believed that a gradual buildup of residue from commercial hair care products and micro-pollutants, along with a diet high in animal fats, prompts an over secretion of sebum. The sebum soon becomes oxidized and is transformed into a waxy substance clogging the follicle entrance.

In time, the impacted sebum and other debris makes its way deep within the follicle, inhibiting the absorption of nutrients and impeding the growth of healthy hair. Additionally, stress can contribute to the problem by causing tightness in the scalp, which further inhibits blood circulation and growth.

About 10 years ago I discovered a group of researchers at Cedars-Sinai, founded by Chief Biologist, William T. Edwards. Twenty five years of research showed that removing the impacted sebum from a hair follicle can assist in growing thicker, healthier hair, ultimately preventing premature hair loss. Among other techniques, they developed a way to look deeper under the scalp with the use of a clever microscopic analysis of the follicle. Through this process they can see how dirty and clogged the follicle actually is. You may now be able to see for yourself how clogged your own follicles are.

They then developed a line of hair care products that work in unison to cleanse the grime from the follicle, protect the scalp from pollutants, shampoo the hair without residue build-up and condition the hair without clogging the follicles.

I have been using these products for many years and believe that you too should consider switching from your old harmful shampoos and conditioners to the Regenix System if you want to remove sebum, normalize excessive oiliness or dryness and improve the health of your scalp.
