The Links Between COVID-19 & Hair Loss

Although there is currently no definitive proof of a correlation between COVID-19 and hair loss, the International Association of Trichologists has attributed two types of hair loss, telogen effluvium and alopecia areata, to the virus.
Scientists say it is evident that the virus triggers a strong immune system response. As the immune system battles the virus, the body prioritises protecting vital organs and diverts resources accordingly. Because hair is not essential to the body’s functioning, it is among the first things to be impacted when a person becomes unwell. This can result in sudden hair fall, as the hair growth cycle is disrupted and may even stop completely. This is comparable to hair loss experienced by cancer patients following chemotherapy in the most severe cases.
If COVID-19 or other conditions have caused hair thinning or loss, our hair replacement technicians can create a tailor-made men’s hair system. These expert systems can alleviate your hair loss worries, creating a stylish and undetectable look.
