THE HAIR CYCLE
The hair cycle is a complex process influenced by various factors. POWERHAIR® combines a range of micronutrients that complement a balanced diet and support the body’s natural functions.
These nutrients support the natural hair cycle from within, helping to address any nutrient deficiencies that could impair hair growth.
By supplementing with these nutrients, the body can be supported in maintaining a healthy hair cycle, ensuring that hair roots are optimally nourished in every phase.
The hair follicle begins to form, the hair root cell is created.
The hair root is nourished, and the hair forms.
The hair becomes thicker, and the connection to the blood vessels becomes more stable. How fast the hair grows and how long it lives depends on the supply of nutrients. With good nutrition, the hair can last up to 6-8 years. With poor nutrition, it can fall out again after just 6 months.
When the follicle detaches from the blood vessels, the hair begins to gradually retreat. This is a normal process but is accelerated by poor nutrient supply.
The follicle weakens and eventually dies off, the capillary networks recede.
The hair is shed by the body.
The resting phase begins, the hair shaft recovers, and if there are enough nutrients in the body, a new growth phase begins.
The resting phase typically lasts 2 weeks in a healthy body. In cases of mild nutrient deficiency, it can last 4-8 weeks. With severe nutrient deficiency, no or very few thin hairs grow back.
