Support for Hair Thinning, Loss, and Dryness
Many women experience hair shedding, thinning, or increased fragility during menopause and perimenopause. These symptoms can be distressing, but with the right care, they can be managed effectively. Even small changes to your routine, haircut or product choices can make a noticeable difference in how your hair looks and feels.
At our Peterborough salon, we offer gentle scalp treatments that help maintain a healthy foundation for hair growth and remove dead skin and product buildup. For clients dealing with dryness or breakage, we provide moisturising and strengthening services designed to revitalise brittle, weakened strands. Our stylists are skilled in creating flattering haircuts & styles that add fullness, volume, and movement to thinning hair. We also offer professional hair colour services that can enhance shine and vibrancy while subtly camouflaging areas of reduced density.
It is important to limit heat styling when possible. If you do use hot tools, keep the temperature on a lower setting and always apply a heat protectant spray to minimise damage. Avoid tight hairstyles like high ponytails or buns, as they can place unnecessary tension on your hair, leading to breakage and weakened strands. Sulfates found in many shampoos can strip away your hair’s natural oils, leaving it dry and brittle. To keep your hair healthy and hydrated, choose a sulfate-free formula that cleanses gently without drying out your strands. Our stylists are always happy to recommend the best products tailored to your hair type and concerns.
Scalp Analysis with Nioscope Technology
Understanding the cause of your hair loss is the first step to finding the right solution. We use the Nioscope — a specialist scalp microscope — to give you a clear picture of your scalp and hair condition.
This non-invasive technology allows our trained team to examine your follicles and scalp health in detail. We can identify common causes of hair thinning such as blocked follicles, poor circulation, or scalp imbalances, and then recommend a tailored treatment plan to support hair growth.
Using the Nioscope, we can track the health of your scalp and hair over time, giving you visible progress as your treatment plan unfolds. This real-time feedback allows us to make adjustments when needed and ensure that you’re always on the best path for improvement. It's a valuable tool not just for diagnosis, but for ongoing care and reassurance.
Our analysis also includes assessing your scalp’s oil production, hydration levels, and any signs of inflammation or buildup. These factors can have a direct impact on the environment your hair grows in — and restoring balance can often be the key to healthier, fuller-looking hair.
Whether your hair concerns are sudden or something you've been living with for a while, the Nioscope gives us the insight to treat your scalp as the foundation for beautiful, strong hair. With professional care and advanced diagnostics, we’ll help you take the guesswork out of your hair loss journey and move forward with confidence.
