John’s hair loss persisted despite using various products. After discovering information about genetic influences on hair health, he turned to HairLife for a deeper understanding and effective solutions.
John ordered the HairLife DNA test online and promptly received a saliva collection kit. The kit included a saliva collector, safety instructions, a return envelope, and a detailed leaflet. Collecting the sample took only a few minutes, and John arranged for an easy return of the sample. After 3-4 weeks John received a personalized report based on his unique genetic profile.
The HairLife report provided John with comprehensive insights. It revealed a genetic predisposition to hair loss due to variations in the AR and HDAC9 genes.
AR Gene: Variations in the AR gene are linked to androgenetic alopecia, commonly known as male pattern baldness. This gene affects the hair follicles’ sensitivity to androgens, which can lead to hair thinning and loss.
HDAC9 Gene: Variations in the HDAC9 gene can impact hair follicle development and regeneration. This can contribute to hair loss by disrupting the normal hair growth cycle.
Additionally, the report highlighted a deficiency in biotin absorption, a crucial nutrient for hair health.
A significant part of the HairLife report was dedicated to John’s genetic response to medications used for treating hair loss. The analysis revealed that John had a favorable genetic response to finasteride, a medication that reduces androgen levels and is commonly prescribed for male pattern baldness. However, it also indicated that he might experience slower results with minoxidil compared to the average population, guiding him to manage expectations and treatment duration accordingly.
The HairLife’s personalized report offered actionable advice. John learned to incorporate biotin supplements and biotin-rich foods such as eggs and nuts into his diet. The report also recommended using medications containing finasteride or minoxidil to stimulate hair growth based on his genetic medication response.
Armed with his personalized insights, John revamped his hair care routine. He switched to products with finasteride or minoxidil and biotin and adjusted his diet accordingly. These changes resulted in noticeable improvements in his hair’s thickness and health.
John’s experience with HairLife was overwhelmingly positive. The detailed genetic report offered clarity on his hair loss, providing tailored recommendations that traditional treatments lacked. The follow-up consultation with a GeneHabit counselor added a personalized touch, enhancing the overall experience.
John found that the HairLife DNA test added significant value. The genetic insights helped refine product choices and provided a personalized approach, complementing professional advice. John now views the HairLife DNA test as an essential tool in understanding and managing his hair health.
HairLife has transformed my approach to managing hair loss. The personalized insights and recommendations have given me a deeper understanding of my hair health and led to effective solutions that truly work. The consultation service was invaluable, adding a personalized touch that made all the difference.
