It’s Dr. Robert Leonard’s birthday month, but he’s giving the gift by sharing his tips for managing thinning hair. But that’s not all – in honor of Dr. Leonard’s special day, we’re offering exclusive sales all month long that are too good to miss (scroll down to the bottom for the deals).
Here are Doc’s secrets to fuller, healthier hair:
Understanding Thinning Hair: Insights from Dr. Leonard
Thinning hair is a concern shared by many, one of its main causes being genetics. Affecting both men and women, genetics are responsible for 98% of hair thinning cases, often diagnosed as androgenetic alopecia.
Another significant cause, particularly among Black women, is traction alopecia, primarily due to tight braiding that destroys hair follicles over time. Recognizing these causes is the first step toward effective management and treatment.
Promoting Hair Growth: What to Look For
In the search for thicker, more voluminous hair, Dr. Leonard recommends certain over-the-counter (OTC) product ingredients. For those seeking natural solutions, look for hair care products enriched with copper peptides, shea butter, grapeseed oil, aloe vera, green tea extract, coconut oil, and red algae. These ingredients are known for their ability to promote hair growth and thickness.
Ingredients and Habits to Avoid
Maintaining healthy hair also means being aware of harmful habits and ingredients. Dr. Leonard advises against infrequent shampooing, as a clean scalp is crucial for hair health.
Additionally, hair care products containing sulfates, phthalates, and parabens should be avoided (try our doctor-created Copper Chemist hair care collection instead!). At the first signs of thinning hair, consulting a medical hair loss specialist is recommended to avoid ineffective and costly treatments.
