So you’re going on holiday soon after you have started your hair loss therapy and you’re worried about the impact that it might have on your final results? Don’t stress. As long as you follow these 5 simple tips, there really isn’t any reason why you shouldn’t be able to, erm, let your hair down while you’re away…
- If your specialist has prescribed a number of products to use throughout your treatment, ensure that you have a sufficient supply of these products to last for the duration of your vacation.
- Missing a few of your laser sessions as a result of going on this much-needed break? There’s no need to pull your hair out over it. Simply continue applying the products as indicated by the specialist and continue your sessions upon your return.
- While you’re probably looking forward to indulging in a bit of extra lazing around, try to get a bit of exercise in here and there if possible. Exercise helps to promote blood stimulation and blood flow which, in turn, can speed up the hair growth process. If the city you’re visiting offers you the chance to explore its sights on a rented bicycle, or if you’ve been offered an opportunity to go hiking or even an evening stroll on the beach… for your own good, grab it by the short hairs!
- Alcohol can severely dehydrate the body, which inhibits the flow of oxygen to your follicles. Don’t worry, you’re on holiday so we are not going to tell you to give it up, just to be safe. Instead, if you wake up feeling a little fragile, make an effort to drink plenty of water in between all the festivities and activities. The extra hydration will help to circulate blood flow and oxygen, and will have you feeling less fragile (wink wink). It will also help rid the body of toxins, all of which helps with hair growth.
- Given the chance, you’d probably take a full head of hair over a good massage, but at least now you have a really good excuse to use to your advantage when it comes to convincing your partner to give you one (or better yet – pay for one from a professional)! Just tell them that the stimulation also assists in enhancing blood flow and circulation. How can they possibly refuse?
See? No need to get grey hair over any worries regarding your hair loss therapy just because you are taking a well-earned holiday.
