Do We Shed More Hair During Summer Season?

What is hair shedding and when do we shed the most?

We often get asked about the topic of shedding. Shedding is a natural process that happens to everyone, but losing hair can be quite scary. And let’s be honest, not everyone who loses hair will end up looking like Bruce Willis. So, how much shedding is considered "normal," and what season do we typically shed the most?

On average, most of us tend to shed the most during the hotter months of the year. In a way, a bit like animals, we drop hair to keep cool in the warmer climate, and then experience particularly strong hair growth in the autumn and winter seasons. The problem for many men and women is too much shedding in the summer and not enough growth during the colder months of the year.

How to stop hair shedding?

Unfortunately shedding can't be stopped completely, as it is a genetic pattern in the human body. However, the pattern of hair fall can at least be minimised to a certain extent. Taking key supplements like HR23+, which contains a good blend DHT blocking properties combined with a strong list of hair growth agents, can indeed help prevent the pattern of hair fall and promote the formation of hair growth.

What other products are useful for minimising shedding?

We have a couple of recommendations for preventing the rate of hair loss, both designed to give you stronger, healthier hair.

Biotin & Collagen Shampoo by OGX (left) is a top class shampoo that contains a broad range of hair beneficiary ingredients that help promote better, stronger looking hair. You can purchase a bottle for less than £10, which is very good value for money.

We'd also recommend trying a good SPF20+ sunscreen lotion on your hair. It is essential that you protect your locks where possible, as the sun can damage your hair cells, therefore regularly applying a non-greasy sunscreen lotion will benefit your hair in the long run, and pave the way for thicker, stronger hair growth.

What Exactly is Keratinocyte Growth Factor (KGF)?

Can Keratinocyte Growth Factor (KGF) really slow down balding and maintain healthy hair growth? The Keratinocyte Growth Factor (KGF), also known as FGF7, is a growth factor present in the epithelialization-phase of wound healing. In this phase, keratinocytes are covering the wound, forming the epithelium. KGF is a small signalling molecule that binds to fibroblast growth factor receptor 2b (FGFR2b). For signalling to occur, a dimer is required between two FGF:FGFR complexes that is linked together by a molecule of heparin. There are 23 known FGFs, and 4 FGF receptors. FGF:FGFR binding is complex and regulated by a variety of mechanisms in a tissue specific manner. FGF10 is also known as "Keratinocyte growth factor 2". KGF is a member of the fibroblast growth factor family and has been found to stimulate hair growth. Our cells respond to KGF because they have receptors on the cell membrane that recognise this growth factor, which is normally present in our body but whic

Can Saw Palmetto Stop Hair Loss?

Saw Palmetto and its connection with Blocking DHT Saw palmetto is a plant with small berries that has been used by Native Americans as medicine and food for hundreds of years. There is evidence that this herbal remedy may treat an enlarged prostate. It also has been used to treat hair loss, bladder infections, prostate cancer, and decreased sexual drive. Research on the effectiveness of saw palmetto in treating hair loss is promising. An extract of saw palmetto berries may block 5-alpha-reductase, an enzyme that converts testosterone to DHT. DHT is the molecule responsible for hair loss, and also is involved in the enlargement of the prostate. The components of saw palmetto that block the enzyme work in a similar way as the synthetic ingredients in prescription medication for hair loss. A study was taken for men with moderate cases of male pattern baldness where they were given a saw palmetto oral supplement to take twice daily for a few months. When asked to rate their bald
