Chronic Stress & Cortisol
Investigated.
Sustained stress pushes follicles out of the growth phase and into resting. The shedding usually arrives months after the event — long after you thought you were 'over it.'
What this usually looks like
- Sudden diffuse shedding a few months after a major life event
- Sleep disruption, a wired-and-tired feeling
- Weight changes, digestive issues
- Anxiety, brain fog, missed cycles

Chronic Stress & Cortisol looks like several other suspects from the outside — which is why so many people treat the wrong one for years. Your Hair Investigation™ settles it, in private, with Dr. Leola.
