Many people think that hair loss, known medically as alopecia, is a male issue. Unfortunately, it is not. It is a common female problem and prevalence increase with advancing age. The fact is that it is a subtler process in women than it is in men but causes similar psychological distress badly affecting confidence and social functioning.
Less than 45% of women go through life with a full head of hair.* Female hair loss is not spoken about as male hair loss. It is a much more common problem for women so that people realise.
During life, the female body goes through many hormonal changes, and it needs to adjust to those by going through several physical changes. One good example is the menopause causing hormonal imbalances by lowering the production of estrogen and progesterone. A decrease in these two hormones increases the production of a group of male hormones called androgens. The first noticeable physical difference in hair is widening parting, which is caused by shrinking follicles. That makes hair grow thinner and easily breakable. The hairline does not tend to recede, but the scalp is becoming more visible.
There are many other different reasons than hormonal imbalances for female hair thinning that affect the hair volume. From genetic predispositions, through extreme stress situations, deficiency in a diet, changes to the body (i.e.childbirth) to the side effects of medical treatments (i.e. chemotherapy).
Female hair loss usually takes the form o gradual thinning throughout the hair. Women are less likely to go bald.
Very helpful is addressing the physical aspects of hair loss and finding suitable solutions.

What makes Scalp Micropigmentation is such an effective solution for enhancing Female Hair Density?
Scalp Micropigmentation is becoming increasingly popular for female clients experiencing a progressive, gradual reduction in hair volume. It is an extremely successful procedure and works for the majority of women. It makes a substantial difference to a woman’s life in general, beauty and psychological wellbeing.
When it comes to the hair restoration industry, there is a wide range of treatments available. From promising miracle shampoos, conditioners, foams, through food supplements right to the hair transplant procedures and Scalp Micropigmentation.
Scalp Micropigmentation is a procedure that offers a camouflaging solution to pattern balding by reducing the contrast between the hair and the scalp. The final result is effectively “shaded” scalp, therefore making the hair appear much thicker.
During the process of Scalp Micropigmentation, experienced and qualified Scalp Micropigmentation Artists precisely apply to the scalp various hues of pigment matching the colour of the hair to generate an appearance of superlative hair follicles. SMP is known to create a natural-looking definition blending seamlessly with the complexion.
Scalp Micropigmentation is successful on almost all skin textures, tones and colours. It does not have any side effects, and the results are almost instant. The process does not stop the follicles from growing as deposited on the scalp pigments do not go beyond a specific layer. The needle barely penetrates 2 mm deep, which is shallow.
There is no need to shave the head for the Scalp Micropigmentation Process to be effective. Some women decide to shave their heads, and that is an individual choice. The technicians work through the scalp by repeatedly parting the hair section by section, applying pigment to the scalp.
