We mostly associate hair loss in women with cancer patients, but for Karen things were a little different. Karen suffered from Lupus. Lupus is an auto immune disease that attacks the tissues and organs inside your body. People that suffer from lupus will experience “flare ups” which occur when signs and symptoms get worse for a period of time. Unfortunately, hair thinning and hair loss is a side effect of lupus which led Karen to look for solutions. Karen came across Transitions.

After her analysis, Karen was “reassured and made to feel hopeful” knowing that laser hair therapy was the solution for her. The purpose of laser therapy is to stimulate cellular function. It stimulates the body’s biological mechanisms, which help promote growth, and repairs the scalp at the cellular level.



Karen began her treatment aggressively, coming in three times a week. She saw fast results, but had to take a break once she began her chemotherapy. During her chemo, she continued to use her laser headband to keep up with her treatment. Karen was thrilled that she didn’t lose any of her hair during her treatment. “The results stayed and I didn’t lose any of my progress.” Now Karen has her hair back! Whether you are losing hair due to Lupus, cancer, or simply thinning, Transitions of Indiana is here to help you every step of the way and make you feel comfortable getting ready in the morning.

Appearance can be a significant factor in deducing someone’s character. Appearance creates a physical façade and gives away personality cues of an individual. Personality is a derivative of the physical illustration that we choose to portray to others. Looking like a put together, confident individual in job interviews, while job hunting, or in social interactions can make you appear as someone who is successful.

So why is appearance such an important contributing factor to success? The way you dress and act reflects the overall image you create for yourself and can leave a good, or bad first impression. No employer is inclined to hire someone that doesn’t look like they can be taken seriously, or doesn’t present themselves in a respectable manner. Your hairstyle plays a critical role in having a respectable appearance.

Looking “polished” or “pulled together” is a professional’s most important physical asset. Well-managed, healthy hair suggests you care for yourself and take pride in your appearance. A study done by the Harvard Business Review suggested t
hat a common element of business leadership success was good hair. The study showed that if you take a great executive and give them a bad hairstyle perceived leadership effectiveness decreased significantly, while bad leaders that were given a new hairstyle saw a 22% to 38% increase in perceived leadership effectiveness over the course of 6 months. Correlation doesn’t necessarily mean causation, but if you think about the vast majority of successful business leaders you probably would find that most of them had really good hair.

Hair has powerful effects on who we are. When you look good, you certainly feel good.
