In
its September issue, hairdressing trade magazine, Salon Business
turned to Mark Glenn co-founder, Mark Sharp for advice on helping
hairdressers
deal
with clients suffering
from hair loss.
The three-page article examined the causes
of hair loss and how best to deal with them.
"Most people are lucky enough to have a healthy head of hair, but
for those who suffer from hair loss it is emotionally devastating",
said Mark in the feature. "And while society is accustomed to men
losing their hair, for women or children it can be a different story."
He went on to say, "Chemical treatments including dyes, tints, bleaches,
straighteners and permanent waves rarely damage hair. However, if applied
incorrectly, hair can become weak and break. Hair can also break if a
solution is left on too long or if two procedures are done on the same
day and if bleach is applied to previously bleached hair, it can break
off. If hair becomes brittle from chemical treatments, it's best to stop
until the hair has grown out."

We also provided the magazine with a glossary of hair loss reasons and
conditions and it's hoped that our advice will help hairdressers deal
more sympathetically with hair loss, as well as point them to sources
of help and advice for their clients.
