Genetics don't define your future – especially when it comes to hair. Genetic hair loss, also known as hereditary hair thinning or androgenetic alopecia, is one of the most common causes of hair loss in both men and women. While it may be influenced by your family history, it doesn’t mean there’s nothing you can do. Our Hair Loss Serum is scientifically formulated to support weakened follicles, promote healthier regrowth, and help slow the progression of hereditary thinning.
Backed by research. Built for results. Because your genes are not the whole story.
Genetic hair loss is typically inherited from one or both parents and often begins gradually. In women, this usually presents as a widening part, overall thinning across the top of the scalp, and reduced volume, rather than complete bald patches.
The condition is driven by a sensitivity to dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone derived from testosterone. DHT binds to hair follicles and causes them to shrink (miniaturise) over time, leading to progressively finer, weaker hair that falls out more easily and regrows less effectively.
While genetic hair loss is chronic, early intervention can help preserve existing hair and support new, healthier growth.
Hair follicles affected by genetic hair loss shorten their growth (anagen) phase and enter the resting (telogen) phase more quickly. Over time, these follicles produce smaller, thinner hairs, and eventually may stop producing hair altogether if left unsupported.
The pattern and pace of thinning can vary, but with consistent care and the right treatment approach, it’s possible to slow progression and improve density in many cases.
Although you can’t change your genes, you can influence how they express themselves with smart, supportive choices:
Taking a proactive, holistic approach can help maximise your hair’s natural potential, even with a genetic predisposition.
