A hair loss factor that’s been staring us in the face + why Botox or massage could help!

This week I'm talking to Gus Slator of ‪@Hairguard‬ who, together with his brother Will, research and develop products and strategies for tackling hair loss.
He explains why they believe scalp tension contributes to hair thinning and pattern baldness in men and the studies that suggest regularly massaging your scalp, or even using Botox to relax muscles, can make an impact.

Scalp massage by hand or using a mechanical tool would likely take months to deliver results. Hairguard believe it can take up to 6 months of massage to stabilize hair loss and start to see volume improvements and often in combination with other treatments. As with all hair loss therapies, results will be variable and treatments have a greater chance of helping if started early.
