Every Plan Starts

With Precision

Hair loss isn’t one-size-fits-all—and neither is the solution. That’s why every client I see is first assessed using the Norwood Classification System, the gold standard for understanding the pattern, progression, and future trajectory of hair loss.

By identifying where you are now and where your hair loss is headed, I’m able to design a strategy that’s not reactive—but intentional, conservative, and built for longevity.

Because when you know the pattern, you can protect the future.

Learn how I evaluate hair loss and what your Norwood stage really means.

Types of Hair Loss

Understanding your specific type helps guide the right treatment approach

Androgenetic Alopecia

Hereditary pattern baldness affecting men and women. The most common form of hair loss.

Telogen Effluvium

Temporary shedding triggered by stress, illness, or hormonal changes.

Alopecia Areata

Autoimmune condition causing patchy hair loss on the scalp or body.

Traction Alopecia

Hair loss from repeated pulling or tension from hairstyles.

Medical Hair Loss

Hair loss due to medications, treatments, or underlying health conditions.

Age-Related Thinning

Natural thinning and reduced density that occurs with aging.

The Hair Growth Cycle

Understanding the natural phases of hair growth helps explain why restoration takes time

Anagen Phase

Growth Phase

Lasts 2-7 years. Hair actively grows from the follicle. About 85-90% of your hair is in this phase at any time.

Catagen Phase

Transition Phase

Lasts 2-3 weeks. Growth stops and the follicle shrinks. Less than 1% of hair is in this phase.

Telogen Phase

Resting Phase

Lasts 2-4 months. Hair rests before shedding to make room for new growth. About 10-15% of hair is in this phase.

When to Seek Treatment

Early intervention often yields the best outcomes

Consider a Consultation If:

  • You notice progressive thinning or shedding

  • Your hairline is receding or changing shape

  • You see bald patches or significant density loss

  • Hair loss is affecting your confidence or quality of life

What to Expect:

  • Comprehensive scalp and follicle assessment

  • Review of medical history and contributing factors

  • Discussion of surgical and non-surgical options

  • Personalized treatment plan tailored to your goals
