What Causes Women’s Hair Loss?

If you’re a woman experiencing hair loss, you’ve probably heard plenty of myths. The most important thing for you to know is that you’re not alone. Even though women don’t foresee hair loss like men do, nearly 30% of women experience some degree of hair loss or thinning during their lifetime. Women’s hair loss has many causes, and determining the cause of your hair loss is the first important step toward finding a solution.

A medication or medical condition is often to blame for hair loss in women. Thinning hair can be caused by stress, hormonal imbalances, nutrient deficiencies, and thyroid problems. It’s almost never caused by teasing, coloring, or shampooing your hair too often.

We want you to know that at Coastal Concepts, we understand the social, emotional, and physical implications of hair loss. Our priority is to provide totally natural-looking, undetectable results, and to make your hair restoration an incredibly positive experience. We’re here to help you feel great about your hair again!

Women's Hair Loss Causes
Ludwig Classification of women's hair loss

Types of Women’s Hair Loss

  • Female pattern baldness: A variety of factors can cause women to lose hair in a typical pattern.
  • Medical treatments: These include radiation and chemotherapy, as well as prescription medicines. If you’re facing hair loss due to medical causes, don’t wait. Call Coastal Concepts so that your new hair can be perfectly matched to your natural growing hair.
  • Hormone problems or vitamin deficiencies: Many women experience thinning hair due to menopause. Too little iron or vitamin B can also be to blame.
  • Alopecia Areata: Generally thought to be an autoimmune disorder, it causes patchy hair loss in different areas of the scalp.
  • Alopecia Totalis: This is an advanced form of alopecia areata that causes advanced hair loss over the whole scalp.
  • Alopecia Universalis: Causing hair loss over the entire body, this is also a form of alopecia areata.

Women’s Hair Loss Solutions

Women visit Coastal Concepts for an incredible variety of reasons. This is a very individualized business. Of course, we provide hair replacement for both men and women. However, with women we find that it’s even more important to really listen to their individual needs and wants. Let’s face it… no one likes losing their hair, but in our society, it’s a whole lot easier for a man than it is a woman. Women want and need to feel comfortable with the choices they are making, and we do our very best to provide that here at Coastal Concepts Inc.

If you are someone that is currently a client with another studio, and you are happy with the system you have – great! We can accommodate you with the same system. If you are a new client, we can talk about your needs and wants to customize your hair replacement system. If it’s lace you are looking for, we can discuss that. If it’s polyurethane, we can discuss that. Sometimes questions and answers can lead us in a whole different direction. The bottom line is that we want you to be happy and will do our best to accomplish it.
