Hair loss in men isn’t always caused by hormones or genetics. Traction Alopecia is a common but often overlooked condition that results from consistent tension on the hair and scalp. Whether from tight braids, dreadlocks, hats, or styling habits, repeated strain can weaken follicles over time. Our Hair Loss Serum is designed to soothe the scalp, strengthen damaged roots, and encourage regrowth where hair has thinned due to tension.
Backed by science, focused on recovery – because your hairline deserves a second chance.
Traction Alopecia occurs when hair is pulled too tightly, too often, often due to:
Over time, the constant pulling puts stress on the follicles, especially around the temples, hairline, and crown, leading to inflammation, thinning, or visible bald patches. If left untreated, the damage can become permanent – which is why early care and lifestyle changes are key.
Repeated tension causes inflammation around the hair follicles, which disrupts the hair’s natural growth cycle and can lead to follicular miniaturisation or even scarring alopecia in advanced cases.
Hair in the affected areas becomes finer, weaker, and more prone to falling out, and without intervention, follicles may eventually stop producing hair altogether. The good news? If addressed early, the process can be slowed or even reversed – and regrowth is possible.
Recovery from traction-related hair loss involves removing the source of strain and supporting the scalp with care. Here’s how:
Addressing these habits alongside targeted products is the most effective way to restore hair strength.
