Karen’s Story

Even though young, there are an abundance of reasons why women in their 20s-40s are losing their hair. Among many factors, chemotherapy treatments have been known to cause hair loss. Patients undergoing chemotherapy treatments may experience mild thinning while others might experience complete hair loss. But why do these treatments cause hair loss? The drugs aim to seize the cancer cells that divide at an extremely high rate. Other cells in our body that divide rapidly, such as our hair follicle cells, are slowed as well because the drugs cannot tell the difference between the types of cells.

One might not ever think about how important their hair is to them until they are losing it. This was the case for our client, Karen, who was diagnosed with cancer at the age of 39. “I guess, sadly, one of the first thoughts after “am I going to die” was “what about my hair?” It is so shallow to say because the hair doesn’t matter, but especially being a woman, it does matter.” Karen battled her hair loss simply by doing something about it. She knew there were alternatives available. She took the first step: calling International Hair Restoration Systems and getting her free consultation.

“It was amazing and just having a full head of hair was incredible.  To be able to go out in any situation and realize that nobody is looking twice at my hair because it’s not thin- It’s a full head of hair!  It’s a wonderful thing!”

Vitamins and Nutrients for Optimum Hair Health

Making sure we are getting the right nutrients is just as important for our overall health as it is for the health of our hair. Maintaining the health of your hair doesn’t have to be hard. There are many vitamin-rich foods available that support healthy hair growth.  

Biotin
Biotin is a B-complex vitamin that helps reduce hair thinning and grow healthier and stronger hair by increasing scalp circulation and rejuvenating hair follicles. Foods such as nuts, oats, root vegetables, and eggs are some of the best sources of Biotin.

Iron
Iron is an essential mineral that has several important roles in the body. Iron is responsible for helping to make red blood cells that carry oxygen around the body to all the cells, which is essential for healthy hair growth. Iron can be found in blackstrap molasses, green leafy vegetables, leeks, cashews, dried fruits, figs, and berries.

Vitamin C
Collagen surrounds hair strands but breaks down as we age making hair more vulnerable to breakage. Taking Vitamin C helps prevent breakage by increasing collagen production.

Fatty Acids
Getting enough essential fatty acids are important for cell growth, blood circulation, and supporting healthy hair follicles. Essential fatty acids such as Omega-3 also help add luster, sheen, and elasticity to your hair. Foods that contain essential fatty acids include walnuts, flax seeds, fish and avocados.
 
MSM
Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) helps increase the production of keratin (a protein found in hair) and helps strengthen hair follicles. You can find MSM in leafy vegetables, such as Swiss chard, cabbage and watercress. Raw vegetables contain a higher amount than cooked vegetables.

If the health of your hair requires more than just adding a few vitamin-rich foods to your daily routine than International Hair Restoration Systems in Jacksonville, Florida is here to help. Call today to schedule your free private, confidential consolation, at (904) 425-5097.

NeoGraft Hair Transplant System at IHRS

Over 40% of Men will experience some form of visible hair loss by the time their 35 and 65% of women will experience visible hair loss by the time they reach 60. However, with NeoGraft men and women don’t have to worry about their hair loss anymore.

NeoGraft uses the Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) hair transplant method. With FUE there is no need to remove a piece of the scalp because the hair follicles are removed directly from the donor area. The individual hair follicles are removed from the scalp in their naturally occurring groupings of about 1 to 4 hairs and are then placed in the areas of the scalp where balding has occurred.

The NeoGraft transplant method offers a lot of benefits. Since there is no scalpel, incision, or sutures involved patients don’t have to worry about linear scars and there is little to no risk of complications. This method cuts patient recovery time in half and provides more natural looking hair results than you get from the traditional strip method. NeoGraft also treats male and female pattern baldness in half the time as many other hair restoration and transplant procedures currently available.

"NeoGraft is less invasive and offers more comfort to our patients. We are the exclusive provider of this technique in the Jacksonville area, and our patients benefit from it."

For over 30 years IHRS has been helping men and women with the latest techniques in hair replacement and restoration procedures. If you’re ready to start living the life you want with the hair you desire than visit hair4me.com or call (904) 425-5097 to get the advice you want from the hair loss experts.

No Heat Hair Styles

Get Curly Hair

1. Twist and Clip

Begin by separating your hair into sections and twist each section tightly. The smaller each section, the tighter the curl. Next, coil the twisted section and pin it to the top of your head. Once your hair has air dried, remove the clips and separate the strands. Don’t run your fingers through the hair — just toss your hair around so that the curls come apart naturally.

2. Rod Rollers 

Start by rolling 1- to 2-inch sections of wet hair into small, flexible rod rollers. Be sure to wrap the hair away from your face. Once hair has air dried, remove rollers, flip your head over and lightly run your fingers through your hair to break up the curls. If needed, spritz hair spray for extra hold.

Get Wavy Hair

1. Braided Waves

Begin by separating your wet hair down the middle into two even sections. Then, braid the sections tightly and finish by tightening the ends with a hair tie. Gently unbraid your hair when it’s dry. Once both braids have been undone, gently separate the waves with your fingers.

2. All Bunned Up

Starting with damp hair, flip your head over, twist all your hair and roll it into a bun at the top of your head. Undo bun once hair has dried for loose waves.

Get Straight Hair

1. Keep Your Cool

Dry hair upside down using the cold setting of the hair dryer and a round brush. While the heat setting would be the quicker option, using the cold setting will allow for a smoother, shinier, end result.

2. On a Roll

Start by rolling your hair into a couple of large soft rollers and remove once hair is dried. Using a large paddle brush, brush through your hair. This will leave your hair straight but with lots of volume.  

At IHRS our mission is to educate you about hair loss and provide you with a real solution to your hair loss using state-of-the-art proven techniques and procedures. We are committed to helping you discover that the look and feel that you always wanted is actually attainable.

Laser Hair Therapy Machines

Low level laser hair therapy (LLLT) is a revolutionary, non-invasive breakthrough for both men and women suffering the devastating effects of hair loss. Laser hair therapy can give you the thicker, fuller and healthier looking hair you want.

Low level laser light, when applied to the scalp, is one of the newest therapies to treat hair loss. Laser therapies for hair restoration are available through hand-held laser devices that may be used at home, or in a medical setting under a physician's supervision. http://hairfoundation.org/hair-library/article-llt.htm

How LLLT Works:
Low level lasers are "soft" lasers, also known as "cold" lasers, and do not have the thermal-component to cut, burn or vaporize.

A Low Level Laser Hair Therapy solution uses a device that contains therapeutic soft low level light lasers which delivers light energy directly to the scalp.

Laser hair therapy was developed in Europe and used for improving hair volume and hair shaft quality that helps to prolonging the life of your hair color and improving hair colors and perms.

Low level laser light is the compressed light of a wavelength from the cold or red part of the light spectrum of electromagnetic radiation. Natural light is different in it is one precise color. It travels in a straight line, monochromatic and it concentrates its beam of light in a specific location.

High Power VS. Low Level Lasers: 
High power laser can be used to cut through tissue and they also give off heat. Low level laser on the other hand do not give off heat and use photo energy.

For years the leading hair replacement clinics / salons around the globe have used ‘cold-beam’ laser technology to help people that suffer from different hair conditions. We know that Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) works by increasing the blood flow to the areas of the scalp around the hair follicles. This increase blood flow works to encourage hair volume and in-turn, give you healthier looking hair.

The specific type of laser used for low level laser therapy (LLLT) meet the international safety standards and the legislative specification for “non-significant risk” products, and is classified as a Class IIIA cosmetic laser.

Reasons for Men’s Hair Loss

Forty percent of men have some sort of visible hair loss by the time they reach 35 years of age and for over 30 years, the International Hair Restoration Systems has been the number one leading hair replacement clinic in the Jacksonville, Florida area. While many men know what it feels like to lose their hair the reasons behind what caused their hair loss can vary.

Male Pattern Baldness
Male Pattern Baldness is the leading cause of hair loss in men and occurs with men who have a genetic sensitivity to Dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Hair follicles that are sensitive to DHT begin to shrink, shortening the lifespan of each hair follicle affected, until the follicles stop producing acceptable hair. MPB is generally characterized by a receding hair line and thinning crown. Over time the hair loss progresses to the top of the scalp leaving only a rim or "horseshoe" pattern of hair remaining in the more advanced stages of MPB.

Medications & Treatments 
Certain blood thinners, blood pressure medications, and even some antidepressants have been linked to hair loss. An overdose of vitamin A caused by taking too many vitamin A containing supplements or medications can also trigger hair loss. Radiation therapy and cancer treatments such as chemotherapy can cause hair loss by harming the cells that grow hair.

Stress 
While not as common as Male Pattern Baldness stress is another factor that has been linked to hair loss. There are three types of hair loss that have been associated with high stress levels telogen effluvium, trichotillomania, and alopecia areata. Hair goes through three phases the growth phase, rest phase, and shedding phase. During high stress events your hair can experience a “shock” causing more hair to go into the shedding phase this type of hair loss is called telogen effluvium.
Trichotillomania is an irresistible urge to pull out hair from your scalp, eyebrows or other areas of your body often as a way of dealing with uncomfortable feelings such as stress and tension. Alopecia areata is when the body's immune system attacks the hair follicles causing hair loss.
