Trichology is the scientific study of the disorders of the hair and scalp.
It is sometimes said that ‘hair is the barometer of health’, and hair can certainly be a reflection of an individual’s lifestyle, indicating the stresses, tensions and variations in the body’s systems. But you may consider that a scalp or hair condition is something that you would not wish to trouble your doctor with. That is where the trichologist comes in: as a hair and scalp specialist, the trichologist will understand your concerns and will usually be able to help. Unlike medical doctors, trichologists receive training in all aspects of hair science, hair care and hair processing.
For qualified Professional opinion and guidance, seek the services of a Trichologist. Here at Hair Xtenz we have a trichological department that caters to all hair and scalp disorders.
What is the difference between trichologists and dermatologists?
Trichology is the holistic approach to health, not just the treatment of the hair and scalp. Trichologists place emphasis on the clients' diet, exercise, and other elements of their lifestyle. Many dermatologists treat only the symptoms of hair loss and scaling, while placing brief emphasis to the causes which many times are produced by a extremely stressful and unhealthy lifestyle.

The Trichologist will carefully question each client and examine the hair and scalp thoroughly to assess the problem and it's causes. A digital microscope analysis is preformed on your hair and scalp, while the client is able to view the condition and a biochemical assessment (urine and saliva test) is utilized to aid in the evaluation of the condition. The Trichologist must determine if he or she can treat the condition; if not, he or she will make a referral to a dermatologist.
First our examination and hair analysis will help determine the stage of hair loss. This is done by looking under a microscope at the hair or hair bulb. We look for breakage or diffuse hair loss and whether it is chemical or mechanical (the way the hair is cared for) damage to the hair. Next, we examine your scalp for specific types of scalp disorders. Some signs of scalp disorders include patchy hair loss, redness, and scaling, diffuse hair loss or thinning in spots or over the entire head.
