Answer
Hello Mona: The condition of a woman's hair is intimately related to her overall health and well being. Hair loss is never an isolated condition. It is important to determine the type and cause of hair loss in order to determine most appropriate treatment.
Essential oil scalp massage treatments are wonderful to stimulate new hair growth and improve the condition of one's hair. Spirulina is an excellent supplement for healthy hair growth and overall health. It contains many valuable nutrients needed for healthy hair growth including protein, iron and zinc.
The following links will give you more information on natural treatments for female hair loss. Please let me know if I can help you further.

Expertise

Female hair loss is my main focus. Women today are very susceptible to several types of hair loss including telogen effluvium, alopecia areata, and androgenetic alopecia. I can answer questions about the causes and types of female hair loss. I can share information about natural holistic remedies to improve female hair loss conditions.

Experience

My interest in female hair loss sprung from my own experience with extensive hair loss. Determined to grow my hair back, I diligently studied every piece of information I could find on the biology of hair growth. After successfully re-growing my hair with safe and effective natural products, I felt compelled to learn more and to share this information with other women. I am experienced in blending custom hair loss formulas. I am also experienced in writing about female hair loss issues.

Publications
My hair loss information has been included in The Truth about Womens Hair Loss by Spencer Kobren, Naturally Healthy Skin by Stephanie Tourles, Alternative Healing by Bill Gottleib and Natural Health Magazine. I am the author of several books on hair loss.

Education/Credentials
I am a certified aromatherapist specializing in formulas for scalp and hair conditions.
