If you’re experiencing hair thinning or changes in scalp health, we can help. We know our stuff!

As part of Hair Loss Awareness Month this August, we’re highlighting one of the most effective first steps in addressing hair concerns: a hair and scalp analysis.

At Francesco Hair Salon, our comprehensive hair and scalp analysis service goes beyond a consultation. It’s an in-depth, personalised process designed to get to the root (literally!) of your concerns and help you understand how to help with hair loss based on your individual needs.

Here’s what happens during your hair and scalp analysis:

1. In-Depth Discussion of Your Concerns

We begin with a one-to-one consultation where we take time to understand your hair history, current concerns, and any changes you may have noticed. This is your chance to speak openly about your hair goals and worries so we can start to build a clear picture of your situation.

2. Lifestyle & Health Factors

Hair loss isn’t just about what’s happening on your head – it can also be affected by what’s happening in your life. We’ll explore a variety of contributing factors such as diet, stress, hormone changes, medication, and more. This holistic approach helps us identify lifestyle influences that may be impacting your scalp health and hair growth.

3. Scalp and Hair Examination with Specialist Tools

Next, we conduct a thorough examination of your scalp and hair using advanced tools like the Nioscope. This high-magnification technology allows us to assess the health of your scalp, follicle density, and hair strand condition in detail – helping us make an accurate diagnosis and create a tailored plan of action.

4. Personalised Treatment Recommendations

Based on your results, we provide customised recommendations that may include in-salon treatments, and the most suitable products to support hair regrowth. One of the most common questions we’re asked is what the best shampoo for hair loss is – and our answer is always the same: the best shampoo is the one that meets your unique scalp and hair needs, which we determine through this analysis.

We also offer guidance on how to maintain a healthy scalp environment, essential for reducing hair fall and promoting growth.

A professional scalp analysis allows us to identify the specific reasons for your hair loss and recommend targeted solutions…

Why a Scalp Analysis Could Be the Key to Hair Regrowth

Many people search online for how to help with hair loss, but generic solutions rarely provide long-lasting results. A professional scalp analysis allows us to identify the specific reasons for your hair loss and recommend targeted solutions. This personalised approach is far more effective than trial-and-error with off-the-shelf products.
