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
The Open Question

Recognizing it is not the same as proving it.

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.
