In the midst of the season, hyped NASCAR fans might be familiar with names like Dale Earnhardt Jr. (pictured top-left), Jennifer Jo Cobb (pictured top-right), David Ragan (pictured bottom- left) and Danica Patrick (pictured bottom-right). What you might not know is that when they’re not racing between speeds of 140-200 mph, some of the sport’s most famous names sport beautiful hair under their helmets. With over 20 weeks left in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series and about 12 weeks out from NASCAR’s second-highest purse, Indy’s own Brickyard 400, these racers are ready to stack up points, take the Spring Cup home and look great doing it.

While the sport boasts a history of unique facial hair for the male racers, younger racers such as David Ragan, driver of the No. 6 UPS Ford and Dale Earnhardt Jr, driver of the No. 88 Amp/National Guard Chevrolet, have perfected their images with beautiful hair that even the longest races in the series can’t stifle. Some racers’ hairstyles have become just as much of their image as their racing skills and logo placement on their stock car. Some up and coming racers could consider jumping on the hairstyle bandwagon and bring a style of their own to the racetrack. Though the sport has moved beyond the days of the mullet, racers like Earnhardt Jr. and Ragan have made a contemporary look their staple. One thing is for sure. They will be bringing more than just style to the tracks as they compete against 23 other teams this season to take on three-time defending Sprint Cup Series Champion, Tony Stewart.

Jennifer Jo Cobb (top-right) is a red hair beauty, one of the only in the sport, who boasts an impressive racing record and when she’s not behind the wheel of a stock car, she is also a public speaker. In 2011, she founded the non-profit organization Driven2Honor, which honors women serving in the U.S. military. Though she hasn’t competed in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series, she continues to be an inspiration to up and coming female racers.

Danica Patrick (bottom-right) is the most successful woman in the history of American open-wheel racing. She earned a win in the 2008 Indy Japan 300, the only women’s victory in an IndyCar Series and her third place victory in the 2009 Indianapolis 500 is the highest finish at that event ever by a woman. Beyond her racing record, Patrick is known as the face of female Indy Car racing. Her performances have earned praise from many drivers including Tony Stewart who said “I think she’s obviously got talent. She’s been successful in every form of racing she’s been in so far and I don’t see why she wouldn’t be successful here in NASCAR.” Patrick proudly sports a beautiful head of luscious brown hair and if her success didn’t give her enough confidence, her appearance definitely does.

Are you noticing less hair on your head and more in your hair brush? For most women, experiencing hair loss is a gradual process that can leave you feeling less attractive and tense in public places. However, thanks to the experienced hair restoration specialists at Transition of Indiana, you don’t have to feel insecure about your appearance anymore. Transitions of Indiana is thlaser e largest hair restoration clinic in the state of Indiana and prides itself on offering only the latest technologies to combat female hair loss. Transitions of Indiana offers Low-Level Laser Therapy or LLLT,

approved by the Food and Drug Administration for the promotion of hair growth. Anne, an actual Transitions laser hair therapy client shared her experience with laser hair therapy from Transitions of Indiana.

Anne battled hair loss for a number of years due to hair loss running in the maternal side of her family. After years of being unsatisfied with alternative hair restoration solutions, Anne decided to call Transitions for a free consultation to determine her type of hair loss and the hair restoration options that Transitions could offer. “The day of my consultation, I was actually excited, thinking that they may have something for me. When I came back out. I knew they did. I knew it was going to work because of the guarantee that they had and the customer service they provided to me. I left there feeling that I was finally going to be able to go back to the life I had when I was 20.”

Anne was given a list of options and decided that laser hair therapy would best fit her needs. Low Level Laser Therapy is a completely safe, non-medical procedure that can be used by men and women of all hair and skin types. Low level laser light is a compressed light from the cold (non-thermal) red part of the electromagnetic spectrum. It is concentrated and focused on the scalp to help revitalize dormant or damaged hair follicles. The goal of laser hair therapy is to increase circulation of the blood to the base of the follicle and to stimulate the hair organs including the nerves, muscles and growth center of the hair follicle. Over time, this process helps to strengthen dormant or weakened hair follicles and breaks up build up from your scalp’s natural production of DHT or Dihydrotestosterone. In addition, it slows down and stops the progression of hair loss while simultaneously repairs and improves hair shaft quality. This method is especially helpful for the relief of troubling scalp conditions such as Psoriasis and Seborrhea.

“You actually have time to just sit and read, something I don’t do very often. While I’m reading, I’m growing hair, which is great. With the laser treatments, your hair doesn’t go away, it doesn’t fall out. It stays. I don’t even worry about it anymore. I even went scuba diving this summer. Now I can go out in the rain. I don’t have to worry about my hair looking bad. I don’t have to worry about running and the wind blowing through my hair and knowing it looks awesome.”

Laser hair therapy isn’t just laser treatment alone. In addition to laser treatments, proprietary pharmaceutical grade products including essential vitamins and hair restoration agents are applied to the scalp to maximize the results of scalp stimulation. “With the lasers, it’s a whole treatment plan that involves their products. With all of those working together, your hair is fuller, it’s thicker and you do see results. I lost probably 30 percent of my hair and now, thanks to Transitions, I have a full head of hair.”

With laser hair therapy, Transitions of Indiana can help you achieve a thicker, fuller, shinier and healthier-looking head of hair. If you are a women experiencing the devastating effects of hair loss and are looking for a non-surgical solution, call Transitions of Indiana at 1-800-GET-HAIR or visit our website at www.TransitionsIndy.com to schedule a FREE hair and scalp analysis with no obligation.

At Transitions™ of Indiana, we offer only the latest technologies to provide our clients hair loss solutions custom-tailored to their individual needs. One of those solutions is low-level laser therapy. This non-surgical hair restoration procedure offers men and women a non-invasive treatment to combat the effects of hair loss. The low-level lasers often referred to as “cold” lasers have no thermal component and do not cut, burn or vaporize. Low-level laser therapy (LLLT) has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the promotion of hair growth and can be used by men and women of all skin and hair types. But, how effective is laser hair therapy?

The goal of laser hair therapy is to increase circulation of the blood to the base of the hair follicle and to stimulate nerves, muscles and growth. Over time, successive treatments help to strengthen existing hair follicles that have been weakened or damaged and break up the build-up found from the production of dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Laser hair therapy may assist in the recovery of postoperative hair transplants and may increase the speed of new hair growth.

Results from a double-blind randomized experiment conducted by the American Journal of Clinical Dermatology showed that 110 patients with androgenic alopecia exhibited a larger increase in hair density after 26 weeks of therapy with a laser light comb compared to subjects who had been treated with a placebo device. Hair growth in subjects who used laser therapy increased by an average of 19 hairs per square centimeter, versus an average of seven hairs per square centimeter in those using a placebo device. Subjects treated with laser hair therapy experienced healthier conditions such as thicker, shinier and more manageable hair compared to those who used a placebo device.

Laser Hair Therapy is recommended to patients experiencing hair loss for several reasons. First, it’s a viable alternative to those seeking a hair loss solution that is non-surgical. Moreover, Men and Women who may be seeking a hair transplant procedure are not always a candidate for that procedure. For individuals who are “non-candidates” laser hair therapy may be the most viable option for stimulating natural hair growth that doesn’t require surgery. Secondly, it may be highly effective for women. Women may have more difficulty achieving favorable results from a hair transplant procedure. Low-level laser therapy can deliver favorable results before, after or in place of a transplant procedure.

At Transitions™ of Indiana, our team of medical professionals work day in and day out to give our clients the highest quality care and service possible. Here are a few reviews from our clients who chose to share their experiences with Transitions and their laser hair therapy procedures:

Treva Epperly, Laser Hair Therapy client says “Since getting laser and scalp treatments at Transitions, my thin spots have started filling back in. I don’t have to spend time trying to cover the thin spots anymore!”

Mary Schmid, Laser Hair Therapy client, “In just six short months with laser and scalp treatments my hair is fuller, thicker and I am even growing a new hair line on my forehead! My hair stylist even noticed the new growth.”

Most people shed roughly 50 to 100 hairs a day. This is normal and doesn’t cause noticeable thinning because new hair continues to grow in at the same time. Hair loss occurs when this cycle of shedding and regrowth is disrupted. These disruptions are usually related to the effects of heredity, hormonal changes and medical conditions, extreme stress or a change in supplements. It is important to identify these changes in order to properly maintain the health of your hair and scalp. Below are five of the most common reasons women experience hair loss.

Heredity

The most common cause of hair loss is a hereditary condition called androgenetic alopecia or female-pattern baldness. Female-pattern baldness occurs gradually in a predictable pattern of a receding hair line with thinning hair in women. Hair thins typically at the top and crown of the scalp. It usually starts widening through the center hair part. In most cases, hair loss is mild to moderate. To treat female pattern baldness, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the treatment of minoxidil. For women, a two percent concentration is recommended. Minoxidil may help hair grow in about 1 in 4 women and it slows or stops hair loss in most women.

Hormones

Hormonal changes and imbalances can cause temporary hair loss. These changes could be due to pregnancy, childbirth or early stages of menopause. Estrogen, the predominant hormone in women’s bodies makes you feel energized and helps stabilize your moods when it’s balanced appropriately. However, too much estrogen, which can be caused by excess weight gain, can lead to thinning hair. During and after pregnancy, estrogen levels peak and then fall, causing sudden hair loss for many women. Insulin, in charge of regulating blood sugar levels, also has an effect on several different body processes, including fat storage, heart health and hair growth. A study published in the European Journal of Cardiovascular Risk found that women showing signs of insulin resistance may have a higher risk for female pattern baldness. Too much testosterone in women can create hair growth in some unpleasant areas including the face, neck and chest but it can also contribute to hair loss on the head. Incorporating more fiber into your diet will help lower levels of estrogen levels. Focusing on a high-protein, low carbohydrate diet with lots of vegetables can also improve insulin resistance, if it’s contributing to hair loss.

Stress

Extreme stress can also be a contributor to temporary hair loss. When your body is under stress due to fluctuating thyroid levels, it channels energy needed for processes such as hair growth to more critical processes needed to balance your hormones. Low thyroid is often the cause of a thinning scalp that women see as they age. If you are consistently stressed you may want to request help from your doctor to determine which lifestyle or dietary changes may benefit you most. In the meantime, managing your stress levels with a healthy activity and getting the recommended amount of sleep will help with general hormone balance and can protect your hair from any further damage.

Vitamin A

Excess intake of Vitamin A can be a factor in hair and scalp health. Vitamin A is essential for many bodily functions including hair growth. This vitamin is in-soluble, meaning your body stores whatever excess you take in. You may consume vitamin A by eating liver, eggs and dairy products. In addition, dark leafy green vegetables and dark orange fruits and vegetables contain beta-carotene which your body can use to produce vitamin A. It is difficult to overdose on vitamin A through a diet alone, but it is easier to do if you take supplements. As a precaution, always discuss Vitamin A supplementation with your doctor, especially if you are on any medication.

Medications

Drugs or treatments used for cancer, depression, heart problems, arthritis, and high blood pressure are among the top medications that can contribute to hair loss. Even certain birth control pills can be a problem, especially if you stop using them abruptly. If you notice sudden changes in your scalp or hair and have recently started taking a new medication, consult your doctor right away. There are usually alternative treatments that can leave you with fewer side effects.

Unfortunately, there are no magic pills or product that will correct hair loss entirely, but there are hair loss solutions available. Whether your hair loss is a symptom of genetics, dietary changes and hormonal imbalances or previous medical procedures such as chemotherapy, Transitions of Indiana has a hair loss solution for you. At Transitions of Indiana we want to get you back to feeling beautiful and help you regain your confidence.

Androgenetic alopecia or male pattern baldness (MPB) as it’s commonly known is a medical condition and the main reason behind hair loss in men. Approximately 25 percent of men who suffer from MPB begin losing their hair before age 21. Hair loss and balding also occur in women. Genetics are a huge factor in an individual’s susceptibility to hair loss. Beyond genetics, something that every individual can monitor and has the ability to change is the amount of sleep they are getting each night.

One of the primary causes of hair loss is sleep deprivation, or lack of sleep. In the modern fast-paced world, sleep is often overlooked or neglected. Experts recommend a minimum of eight hours of sleep a night. Many people find fitting those eight hours in around their busy schedules of work, rest and relaxation. This can have adverse effects on your health, one of which is lead to an increase in stress. Stress is common and a large amount of stress can lead to insomnia. Leading hair experts have established a link between sleep deprivation and hair loss.

Sleep is absolutely essential for our body. Each night, when you sleep, your body recharges itself with electrolytes and replenishes its energy. If this time is cut short, this can negatively impact the body’s immune system. The body starts to get weak. A consistent lack of sleep can prevent the body from absorbing the nutrients necessary to stay healthy. Due to a lack of nutrients, the roots of hair can become weak. Weakened hair follicles allow the hair to fall out easily.

What to Do If You're Having Trouble Sleeping at Night:

Millions of people have trouble getting enough sleep. Take comfort knowing you aren’t alone. There are some easy lifestyle changes that are recommended to those who can’t wind down at the end of a hard day, the first of which is turning the lights down. Try to stay clear from watching TV, using a laptop, tablet or phone or any bright back lit screen before heading off to sleep. This will help your brain relax. Avoid using stimulants such as caffeine commonly found in drinks like tea, coffee or soda. In addition, some people find it difficult to sleep if they’ve eaten a large meal just before heading off to bed. Working long hours late at night can also be problematic in regards to sleeping patterns. This will inhibit your ability to sleep shortly after your mind has been fairly active.

At Transitions of Indiana we understand that hair loss isn’t something we choose but gaining the look we want can be. We offer various hair restoration procedures to help your gain the look you want all the while respecting your personal schedule. We offer low monthly payment plans to make your hair restoration goals affordable and convenient. Which procedure is the best fit for you?
