Hello, this is Haro from YakAl!

Today's topic is hair falling like rain. Seborrheic, male pattern, stress-induced hair loss?

’How to combine hair loss supplements?‘ ..

It's not too late even now.

Let's all welcome our new spring together with thick, voluminous hair!

First,, based on YakAl's internal standards, we created a table.

We divided product grades into S, A, B, and C, and the criteria are as follows:.

Grade S: Products that are top-tier in terms of cost-effectiveness, quality, and ingredient quantity based on evaluation criteria
Grade A: Products that lack something in one aspect based on evaluation criteria, but are well worth considering for purchase
Grade B: Products that excel in cost-effectiveness. Products worth considering when starting supplementation for the first time
Grade C: Other products. Products that will not be considered in this column.

First, I will recommend supplement ingredients based on the standards of supplements evaluated by YakAl!

The above supplements are among those we at YakAl have evaluated so far

and are supplements that I personally find favorable.

Then, I'm sure you're thinking this:.

How should I take the above supplements…?

Now I will explain in detail how to take the above hair loss supplements!

0. The foundation of all hair loss treatment is hair loss medication!

Perhaps... are you still reading this article without taking hair loss medication…?

That's like running onto the battlefield without ammunition and a gun!

Go back one page and take your hair loss medication right now!!!

Ah... perhaps you're worried that hair loss medication might reduce sexual function,

or have side effects on hormones?

Or are you simply trying to overcome hair loss with supplements alone, without understanding the severity of your hair loss?

Let me give you a straightforward answer.

Hair loss cannot be treated without hair loss medication

I cannot guarantee 100%.

But... the vast majority of people with hair loss

have overcome hair loss with hair loss medication as their foundation.

Whether your hair loss is severe, mild, preventative, or restorative,,

regardless of what treatment you receive,,

taking hair loss medication is a basic requirement.

Hair loss supplements are meant to fill in the gaps while taking hair loss medication.

They can never be the primary treatment.

Therefore, whether you visit a famous hair loss clinic or a local hospital,,

you must continuously take medications such as finasteride or dutasteride,

medications that can inhibit 5-alpha reductase,

while dedicating yourself to hair loss treatment and prevention.

Now... have you all taken hair loss medication?

Then, from now on, let me explain in detail how to take hair loss supplements

in a specific way?

1. The role of hair loss supplements

To combine hair loss supplements,,

first, it would be better to understand each ingredient in hair loss supplements?

For now, limited to the supplements we evaluated, I will explain the role of hair loss supplements.

Below are the effects of hair loss supplements, so please refer to them!

Biotin

A coenzyme that helps enzymes that promote keratin synthesis as an ingredient,,

Keratin promotes hair cell growth and increases hair strength,

which can help prevent hair loss.

Additionally, biotin promotes disulfide bonding in proteins that make up hair.

Disulfide bonding is one type of bond between molecules,,

and is one of the strongest intermolecular interactions.

Therefore, if there are many of these structures in hair,,

it stabilizes hair structure and makes hair thicker and stronger.

With these effects,, it can help with telogen effluvium, age-related hair loss, and female pattern hair loss.

However, if you only take biotin and don't consume protein components that make hair grow,

the effectiveness of hair loss treatment will decrease?

Therefore, when taking this supplement, do not engage in severe dieting,,

and take it simultaneously with stable nutrition intake is recommended.

L-Cysteine

As one of the amino acids that make up hair keratin,,

it promotes hair cell growth and regeneration,,

and strengthens hair to make thin and weakened hair healthy.

Additionally, L-cysteine has potent antioxidant effects and,

eliminates or neutralizes reactive oxygen species accumulated in hair follicles,

which can prevent hair follicle cell damage.

With these effects,, it can help with protein-deficiency hair loss and age-related hair loss

Brewer's yeast

Because of the abundance of vitamins and amino acids needed for hair loss, including biotin (B7),

it is widely used, and it also contains ingredients such as beta-glucan, selenium, and chromium that help strengthen immunity and provide antioxidant effects,

which can support scalp health and improve the hair growth environment

It is mainly used for protein and biotin-deficiency hair loss,.

and otherwise is used in a supplementary manner for hair loss treatment,

.

Then, let's find out what types of hair loss these supplements can treat,

and what combinations you should take?

2. In what situations should you take supplement combinations?

Age-related/protein-deficiency hair loss

→ Protein (collagen, brewer's yeast) + L-cysteine + biotin

Protein-deficiency hair loss

does not typically occur under normal circumstances (in Korea, that is))

but in cases of severe dieting or veganism, hair loss due to protein deficiency can occur.

Additionally,, in the case of age-related hair loss,

the hair protein synthesis ability of hair follicle cells decreases, which can make hair thinner,,

and as hair follicle cells themselves age, hair follicle growth ability declines,

which can reduce hair growth speed and thickness.

Protein-deficiency hair loss occurs,

overall hair loss occurs (not localized hair loss)),

hair growth is delayed,,

and fatigue and muscle loss are triggered, resulting in delayed wound healing, weakened strength, etc..

In the case of age-related hair loss,

hair loss in specific areas is not obvious,,

and if hair becomes generally thinner and hair density decreases,

you can suspect that type of hair loss.

In these cases, I recommend the above supplement combination!

Q. But couldn't I just take hair loss medication in those situations?

A. Of course, you could think that,,

but as I mentioned above,

you cannot build a building without materials.

The materials to make a building are protein and vitamins.

Therefore, if hair loss due to nutritional imbalance is suspected,

I recommend taking supplements in the above combination.

Telogen effluvium (especially effective for stress-induced))

→Brewer's yeast + biotin + L-cysteine

Telogen effluvium is literally hair loss that occurs when hair enters a resting phase.

Normally, our hair goes through cycles of

growth phase â regression phase â resting phase,,

and if the ratio of growth phase â resting phase becomes abnormally high, hair loss occurs.

The causes of this hair loss are varied,,

but telogen effluvium typically occurs due to stress, postpartum (hormonal changes, typically starting 2-4 months after delivery), illness/medication, etc.),

.

Symptoms include noticing an overall decrease in hair density from the front hairline and parting line,,

and hair comes out in clumps when shampooing or brushing.

However, unlike alopecia areata, there are no distinct bald patches,,

so you can somewhat notice telogen effluvium from that difference.

If you've been hit with telogen effluvium and lots of hair is falling out suddenly, leaving you worried,,

let me share some good news.

If the cause of telogen effluvium is eliminated, most cases,

can recover quickly, unlike other types of hair loss .

But... if you don't eliminate the cause quickly,,

telogen effluvium can become chronic and become entrenched,

so you must quickly identify and work to eliminate the cause.

The above combination is effective for telogen effluvium.

The reason is the same as for the above nutritional-deficiency hair loss:,

strengthening hair nutrient supply can make hair grow quickly.

In particular, since telogen effluvium has a high likelihood of regrowing if the cause is resolved,,

if you take this supplement combination once you enter the recovery phase,

hair creation can proceed more smoothly and recovery will be faster?

Seborrheic hair loss

Seborrheic hair loss is inflammatory hair loss caused by seborrheic scalp dermatitis.

Excessive sebum secretion and inflammation irritate the scalp, causing hair follicle damage,,

and hair follicle damage triggers hair loss.

To explain the mechanism of this hair loss simply,…

excessive sebum secretion â overgrowth of malassezia fungi that break down sebum→

â increased inflammatory cytokines â inflammation around hair follicles â hair loss, in that order.

Hmm... that's not simple at all, is it?

Let me simplify it further:…

sebum is secreted and bacteria increase in that area,

causing inflammatory responses to prevent bacteria, which worsens hair follicles

and suppresses hair growth

Now you understand seborrheic hair loss to some extent?

If your scalp is itchy, oily, matted, in a red state, and your hair is thinning or falling out,

you can suspect seborrheic hair loss!

Then... how should you manage seborrheic hair loss?

Sebum control

Inhibit sebum through zinc, vitamin B6, omega-3, etc.

Antifungal management (+ scalp cleanliness)

Low-irritant shampoos, antifungal shampoos, etc., suitable for seborrheic scalps

Inflammation suppression

Suppress inflammation through omega-3, propolis, vitamin D, antioxidants (C, E, selenium)

+Hair growth assistance (biotin, L-cysteine, protein, etc.))

In summary,,

seborrheic hair loss involves excessive sebum + inflammation + hair follicle damage occurring simultaneously,,

so overcoming it through sebum management and inflammation suppression is important!

Male pattern hair loss

Male pattern hair loss is progressive hair loss in which hair follicles gradually shrink under the influence of male hormones (androgens),

and hair becomes thin and falls out.

The mechanism is that

testosterone is converted to DHT (by 5-alpha reductase action))

→ â DHT binds to hair follicle receptors

→ â hair follicle shrinkage, shortened growth, extended resting phase

→ â hair becomes thin and hair density decreases, and over time hair follicles disappear

!

Unlike other types of hair loss,

hair follicles ultimately disappear, forming permanent areas of hair loss

making it quite a frightening type of hair loss!

The reason this is most frightening is that…

once permanent areas of hair loss form, it's difficult for hair to regrow there,,

so if you don't recognize this type of hair loss early and let it go untreated,,

it becomes considerably difficult to treat once you realize it later.

Therefore,,

if there is a family history of hair loss among relatives,

or if you're a man and suspect hair loss symptoms,

I strongly urge you to visit a hospital for diagnosis.

The main symptoms of male pattern hair loss can be divided into two major types:,

hairline recession (M-shaped hair loss) and crown hair loss (O-shaped hair loss)) .

Of course... if these symptoms are visible, it could be a late stage.

Then, how should male pattern hair loss be managed?

Hair loss medication

First, the most important treatment for male pattern hair loss is

“hair loss medication.

Finasteride and dutasteride inhibit 5-alpha reductase,so,

they are the most suitable treatments for male pattern hair loss!

Next, various supplements to supplement hair loss medication are important.

Hair follicle nutrient supply

→Biotin, vitamin D, protein, L-cysteine

Blood circulation improvement

→Minoxidil (topical medication), ginkgo biloba extract

Sebum/inflammation management

→ Zinc, omega-3, vitamin B6

Closing remarks…

By pairing hair loss medication with various supplements in this way,,

you can more effectively overcome or prevent hair loss.

Based on the hair loss supplements evaluated so far at YakAl,

we looked at what supplements you can take for each type of hair loss situation.

Even though YakAl has not yet evaluated all supplements,,

going forward we will continue to work hard

to recommend supplements suitable for all types of hair loss,

and dedicate ourselves to analyzing and informing all people with hair loss so they can be free from hair loss

to the best of our ability.
