Hair Growth Problems and Solutions Across Age Groups

Adolescents (Ages 13-19)

Problem: Oily Scalp + Heat Damage

During the early stages of life, our hair is youthful and vibrant. However, the hormonal changes that accompany adolescence can have adverse effects on our scalp, resulting in increased oiliness and the acne. This is also a period of experimenting with self expression, such as heat styling or color changes, which can increase the risk of hair damage.

Solution

If you are experiencing hormonal changes or experiencing hair damage from styling too often or experimenting with dyes and chemicals, we suggest using natural styling products like our Wash + Go Styling Gel with non toxic, vegan ingredients.

During this time, it is crucial to develop a holistic hair care routine that works for you and your hair type. Start by providing your hair with the right nourishment to support growth and strength. A balanced diet rich in essential vitamins, minerals, and proteins, paired with gentle cleansing and moisturizing, lays the foundation for lifelong healthy hair. It can also be helpful to stick to hair products that include solely natural or vegan ingredients like, our Healthiest Defined Hair Bundle.

Young Adults (Ages 20-35)

Problem: Thinning + Environmental Damage

As we transition into adulthood, unseen environmental stressors such as pollution, UV rays, and harsh weather conditions can significantly impact our hair health. These stressors strip away natural oils, leaving our tresses dry, brittle, and prone to breakage. We may also feel tempted to switch things up and experiment with new styles. However, it's important to note that while heat styling tools have the ability to effortlessly transform our hair, excessive use and poor technique can lead to irreversible damage. The high temperatures emitted by flat irons, curling wands, and blow dryers weaken the hair shaft, causing breakage and thinning over time.

Solution

At this stage in our lives, we don’t want to stifle our creativity. Shielding your hair with protective styles, like braids or updos, and using products infused with antioxidants and protective barriers can combat the damaging effects of these external factors. It's also vital to use heat protectants, set styling tools to moderate temperatures, or embrace heatless styling options to minimize the adverse effects of heat on your precious hair. You can also promote hair health from within using our Hair Growth Vitamins. These acts of kindness to your crown can be extremely beneficial while giving you the versatility to look and feel good in young adulthood.

Adults (Ages 36-50)

Problem: Lower Collagen + Slower Metabolism

At this time, hormonal changes, specifically fluctuating estrogen and progesterone levels, can impact hair health. Estrogen helps promote hair growth, while progesterone supports hair thickness. Additionally, collagen, a vital protein responsible for hair strength and elasticity, naturally declines with age, as does metabolism. The fluctuation of these hormones, combined with the decline in collagen production and slower metabolism, can disrupt this delicate balance, resulting in hair thinning and reduced density.

Solution

Incorporating hair care products enriched with hormone-balancing botanicals, like Saw Palmetto found in our Hair Growth Vitamins, can help restore equilibrium and support healthy hair growth. Incorporating scalp massages, like a hot oil massage using our Hair + Scalp Growth Elixir, and consuming a nutrient-rich diet can invigorate the scalp, encourage blood circulation, and provide the necessary building blocks for thicker, denser hair. You can find collagen-boosting ingredients, such as biotin, amino acids, and plant-based proteins in our Iconic Hair Growth Duo as well. Implementing these products in your hair care routine, can help fortify the hair shafts, improve hair strength, and promote the appearance of fuller, more voluminous hair. We also suggest using more natural styling products like our Wash + Go Styling Gel. The best part? They are non-toxic and natural, so no additional chemicals or damage!

Older Adults (Ages 50+)

Problem: Thinning + Hair Loss

During this time of life, hair may exhibit different characteristics, such as decreased sebum production and potential hair loss due to hormonal imbalances. These changes can lead to reduced density and increased fragility. With age, our sebaceous glands produce less sebum, resulting in drier, more brittle hair. Particularly during menopause, hormonal imbalances can contribute to hair thinning and potential hair loss. To support optimal growth during this stage, our focus shifts to strengthening and stimulating the hair follicles.

Solution

To combat this, it's crucial to prioritize hydration and moisture retention. Incorporating gentle, sulfate-free cleansers and deeply nourishing conditioners like our Deep Conditioning Protein Masque, enriched with natural oils like jojoba and argan, can replenish moisture levels, improve hair elasticity, and restore luster to your hair.

Nourish your scalp and support healthy hair growth even further by utilizing scalp-stimulating treatments, such as massages with our Hair + Scalp Growth Elixir. This can improve blood circulation, enhance follicle health, and promote the growth of thicker, more resilient hair. It may also be helpful to explore specialized hair treatments recommended by a dermatologist.

Lastly, we preach about this any chance we get, adopt a balanced, nutrient-rich diet! A diet that includes lean proteins, vitamins, and minerals can support optimal hair growth. Additionally, incorporating supplements specifically formulated to address hair health, such as our Hair Growth Vitamins, which include biotin, can provide essential building blocks for stronger, more vibrant hair. Incase you don't like taking your capsules with water directly, you can also add our vitamins to your smoothies, parfaits or whatever beverage you prefer. For best results, we suggest using our Iconic Hair Growth Duo to promote scalp and hair health.

Essential Hair Care Practices for All Age Groups

Ultimately, no matter the stage of life you are in, a well-rounded hair care routine begins with proper nutrition. Fuel your body with a balanced diet rich in vitamins, minerals, and proteins it needs to thrive overall, not just for hair growth. Additionally, hydrating your body and managing stress levels play pivotal roles in maintaining healthy hair. Find ways meaningful to you to manage stress and be sure to drink your daily recommended amount of water.

Next, look for ways to minimize damage and promote hair health, such as protective styling. Regular trims prevent split ends from traveling up the hair shaft and preserve length. Prioritizing these in your hair routine fosters an environment conducive to hair growth and overall well-being.
