‘I’m a trichologist – here are the 3 steps I take to achieve waist-length hair’

London: A woman has opened up about her journey to growing her hair to waist length after facing hair loss due to androgenic alopecia.

Sofia, a hair loss researcher and trichologist, shared that just a few years back, she had very little hair. Now, her locks are long, thick, and healthy. She’s got some solid tips for anyone wanting to achieve similar results.

In her video, she emphasizes that consistency is key. She breaks down three main steps that can help you grow your hair quickly and effectively.

First up, she suggests stimulating blood flow to your scalp every day. This is crucial for new hair growth. One easy way to do this is by using minoxidil, a treatment for pattern hair loss. When blood flows to your scalp, it brings oxygen and nutrients to your hair follicles, making them stronger and promoting growth.

If minoxidil isn’t your thing, no worries! Sofia also recommends dermarolling, scalp massages, or even caffeine treatments. Just remember, you need to do this daily for the best results.

Next, she talks about reducing inflammation on your scalp. Inflammation can lead to more shedding and weaker hair. To combat this, she suggests using a specific shampoo called Ketozolin, which helps reduce inflammation and stop shedding.

Finally, she advises against going to bed with wet hair. Wet hair is more prone to breakage, especially when it rubs against your pillow. Keeping the ends of your hair healthy is just as important as promoting new growth.

She also highlights the importance of using a good shampoo and conditioner to keep your hair soft. If your hair becomes brittle, it’s likely to snap and break.

Remember, there’s no one-size-fits-all solution for hair growth. If you’re having trouble, it’s always a good idea to consult with your GP.
