If you haven't heard of Nikki Reed, she is part of WZPL’s Smiley Morning Show (99.5 FM) in Indiana and she was a victim of damaged hair that stopped growing. Nikki recently appeared on Indy Style to share her story about restoring her hair to its natural state after damaging it due to constant dyeing for so many years.

Nikki explained that part of her radio personality is to always do fun and crazy things to her hair. This caused a long trend of dyeing her hair to different colors which damaged the hair at its root. Constantly dyeing hair and changing its color is an increasing trend nowadays, called fantasy hair, but what people like Nikki fail to realize is how damaging it is. Nikki explains on Indy style that after years of dyeing and straightening her hair that she realized her hair just stopped growing as if her hair said "No! I've had enough of you!". This is when she sought the help of Transitions of Indiana.

Nikki reached out to Transitions to see what her options were to get her hair growing again. They came to the conclusion that laser hair therapy, scalp treatments and using pharmaceutical grade products was the best combination of treatments to get Nikki's hair growing again. She was joined by Will Sadler of Transitions who explained that Nikki's next step in hair restoration is a treatment called Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy which is another non-surgical alternative to regrow and stop the thinning of hair. Nikki explains that after working with Transitions, she has more good hair days than bad hair days now, and
that her hair feels more relaxed and back to its natural feel. Nikki and Will were keen to remind everyone that hair restoration is not just for men but for women too. Women don't have to accept hair loss or thinning, they can reach out to Transitions to get started with a free consultation and get that hair back to looking fabulous!

In today's society, woman are portrayed to have hair. More than just having hair, they are portrayed to have sleek shiny hair, voluptuous thick hair, or straight healthy hair. So when the concept of a woman with thinning hair is brought up, it becomes an abstract topic for some. It becomes so abstract that most people would rather not even bring it up.

For Shani, being an actress put this same pressure on her. She was constantly in the spotlight. Appearance was everything when competing with other actresses. She started to notice that her hair was thinning and it began to affect both her personal and professional life. "I felt very insecure. I lost my self confidence. I didn't feel attractive, like I did before." A lot of woman don't believe they have a hair loss problem because they are embarrassed about addressing it. This gives woman the idea that any hair loss solutions aren't meant for them, because they "aren't meant to be there in the first place".

Shani had put off finding a solution to her hair loss. She had to get past the fact that her hair was thinning and that she had to do something about it. She finally got over her hurdle and had found Transitions of Indiana. During Shani's first visit to Transitions, she very uneasy. "I don't know if they could tell that I was interested and through the process of that I like apologized, didn't really think I needed to be there, you know. They started to tell me that, 'No we treat woman. Woman have these problems.' I just felt embarrassed I guess." In just six months, Shani's hair had transformed. She finally has the thick, healthy hair that she had been missing. Shani got more than just her hair back, she got her life back.

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.
