Male hair loss is a "progressive disorder" which causes hair to thin gradually across the front, crown and temples. For some the hairline recedes above the temples or becomes completely bald across the top but not through the lower sides and across the back of the head. Because this hair is not effected by the genetic hormonal changes that cause hair loss it can be used to replace the hair lost through the front and crown. 

Hair Restoration (once called Hair Transplants) has come along way from the early days. Especially when preformed by a "cosmetic hair restoration artist" like Dr. Michele Elliott, a pioneer of today's micro-hair restoration.

What is a "micro-hair restoration?
Unlike the early day's of using large plugs of hair to cover hair loss___
A micro-graft procedure is performed by using "one hair strand at a time" for a natural looking hairline (see above) and several bundles of (two-three-four hairs) to fill-in large thinning area's. Depending on the degree of hair loss, the procedure can take up to eight hours, is totally painless and can costs from $5 to $10 per graft.  A hair restoration using 1500 grafts, for example, which is about average, is approximately $7,500. 


Who should have this done ?
Ok, it all depends on how much it matters to you__ if your comfortable and you don't mind the look, it doesn't really matter. After all, "man does not live by hair alone".  There are far worse things that can happen to you then hair loss.

However, as a hair stylist it did matter
to me personally. And as a stylist, I can tell you most people look better with a full head of hair. Having had this done myself by Dr. Elliott, I can also tell you first hand that his procedure was painless, the results are totally natural looking and believe me, nothing short of amazing. I look at it this way, if your teeth were bad, won't you fix them, why not your hair?

If you've been considering doing something about your hair loss, I highly recommend you visit Dr. Elliott's web site for more details. Or call his office and ask for Mr. John Peters to arrange for a personal consultation @ 310- 843-3131. Please tell Mr. Peters that I recommended you.

Hair Growth and Replacement Cycle

Our natural hair color, texture, wave, curl, straightness and density changes approximately every  5 - 7 years. It's part of our hair's "natural growth and replacement" process. With few exceptions, everyone will experience some degree of hair loss over time. It's another reason why I recommend adjusting (changing) your hair style every so often, regardless of hair fashions.

Hair Lose Facts

Style Cuts Thin and Thinning hair can be made to look better and less noticeable with a contoured style cut and styling agents spray, gel, foam or lotion

Hair Loss "does not" only come from the mothers side of the family nor does wearing a hat to tight cause genetic hair lose. 
Most women may not experience extreme baldness like man, but many will experience a gradual degree of "thinning" across the top with age and hormonal change.  
Hot styling tools can damage the hair fiber but will not cause hair loss. 
Hair dyes, bleach, perms, straightening solutions can cause permanent hair loss 
if used incorrectly over time.
Topical Hair Restore Products may slow hair lose but can not re-grow hair once the hair follicle has atrophied ! 
Hair Vitamins _ A Vitamin Supplement formulated for hair, skin and nails taken as part of your personal care program can encourage natural hair growth. For this I recommend the  Hair Formula 37 vitamins for fast, healthy hair growth.
