Frequently Asked Questions

You’ll find answers to the most frequently asked questions below. Everything you need to know is right here, designed to help you make an informed and confident decision.

What are the common causes of hair loss?

Common causes include temporary shedding after stress, illness or childbirth (which usually recovers), pattern hair loss, patchy hair loss, tight hairstyles and scalp conditions.

Will my hair grow back?

Many types of hair loss, particularly temporary shedding, recover over several months once any underlying trigger is addressed. We advise on what to expect for your situation.

When should I get hair loss checked?

It is worth an assessment if hair loss is sudden, patchy, or comes with scalp redness, pain or scaling, or with other symptoms such as tiredness or irregular periods.

What is causing my hair shedding or scalp symptoms?

Hair shedding and scalp symptoms have several common causes, including temporary shedding after stress, illness, childbirth or a change in health (which usually recovers over several months), pattern hair loss, patchy hair loss, tight hairstyles and scalp conditions.

Underlying factors such as thyroid problems or low iron can contribute, so blood tests are sometimes helpful. We assess the pattern and your history, arrange any appropriate tests, and advise on the likely cause and what can help.
