Some say that life begins at forty, but when your body is going through a multitude of biological changes as a result of the menopause, it doesn’t always feel that way. There are many symptoms that occur during perimenopause, including hot flushes, mood swings and weight gain. One that people tend to forget is menopausal hair loss and hair thinning.
At Watermans, we’re here to help ease any worries you might have about menopause hair loss We reveal the symptoms to look out for and recommend products that work to encourage thicker and stronger hair growth.
During the menopause, hormone levels change. Oestrogen and progesterone levels decrease, causing the androgens (male hormones) to become more dominant. This increase of androgens causes hair follicles to shrink, resulting in thinning hair and hair loss.
It’s important to note that menopause hair loss and/or thinning is very common. It’s estimated that around 50% of women experience hair thinning or hair loss at some point during their lives, including before, during and after menopause.
Although it’s common, we understand that it can still make women feel self-conscious. A targeted hair care routine can help to stimulate the scalp, creating the optimal environment for natural hair growth.
Firstly, use a Hair Growth shampoo that helps to invigorate the scalp and create the optimal environment for hair growth. The Grow Me Shampoo from Watermans provides a unique blend of ingredients, including Biotin, Caffeine, Argan Oil, Rosemary Extract, Niacinamide, Allantoin, and Hydrolysed Lupin Protein, that work in conjunction to help stimulate hair growth. It also works to strengthen existing hair, helping to prevent thinning menopausal hair from breaking.
Use this shampoo alongside the Watermans Hair growth Conditioner to nourish and smooth the cuticles for fuller, thicker-looking hair.
