🦋 You are beYoutiful inside and out; I love you!
I’m 23 and about a week ago my hair started falling out in massive chunks after 7 years of taking care of my grandmother with dementia and finally putting her into a hospital, all of the sudden my hair starts falling out, I don’t have insurance to go to a dermatologist but I’m Native American and losing my hair is like losing part of my culture, I hope deeply that I will grow my hair back
I hope you feel better and i pray for you and your family i went through a similar hair issue most of time over the counter medication worked it does take time and energy but i have hopes it has started growing in baby hairs
You went through a lot, be kind to yourself. I hope your hair recovers soon. Everyone I know that has had major hair loss due to stress or illness, it has all grown back so I am feeling positive for you 💜
That has to be horrifying. To grieve for your grandmother and lose your hair? My heart goes out to you. I suggest researching alternative options. I keep hearing about estrogen supplements but I’d get advice ahead of time. And if hair loss is connected to stress, definitely work on self love, anything to give yourself a piece of mind. I knew someone who started losing her hair while going through a traumatic divorce. One year later and with therapy along with finding ways to deal with distress, and her hair is growing back.
iron in supplements may help, most of the time anemia causes it, it takes time and then all of the sudden you loose them, take care of yourself.
Thank you so much for all of your comments, I was just recently diagnosed with a whole list of things but one of them being anemia!!! I’m going to try to get my diet into a better place and supplementing things like iron selenium zinc etc, thank you all for your kind thoughts I have legitimately been through so much I don’t know how I’m continuing but it gives me hope to see these stories, and these comments, If it grows back I’ll come back here and update you all thank you again for being so nice I needed it 💕💕💕
Scottish model Gail Porter went completely bald almost 20 years ago. She very bravely chose to not wear wigs or headscarves in order to raise awareness and she looks beautiful.
Maybe because she is physically beautiful? Not everyone will look beautiful bald. I for one would NOT!
Just as things were starting to open after the pandemic I met with friends in a restaurant with a garden. We took pictures and in them I saw the sunlight bouncing off my scalp. Also, my eyes were extremely puffy. Not long before that I had to go to the ER because my IBS was so bad I couldn't walk. I realized my whole life I had been under some kind of abuse. First a bad home, then an abusive marriage and finally a toxic workplace. It's weird because, apparently, I had my life together, I was even getting treatment for depression, anxiety and ÇPTSD. But I learned no amount of care and treatment is going to work if you don't get out of whatever it is that's killing you. I saved up, payed up my home and retired early, and I am now focusing on writing fiction, which used to be my side gig. I know I'm lucky I was able to swing it. Took a long time, but I'm finally on the mend of everything
❤🔥
All the people in this comment section telling Cassandra to eat meat and stop eating plant based clearly missed the part where she asked her DOCTORS about it and they said HER DIET IS NOT THE CAUSE!
My hair fell out so much that I had wispy "chemo" hair. Turns out it was because I was Type 1 Diabetic and being treated for Type 2. My friend on the other hand bleached her hair so much, styled, overloaded with products and abuse, she loss her hair too. Both of us were told it was Alopecia.
It was a horrible time, I was so conscious because I had the best hair before, never needed to comb it, it was straight, no frizz, right out of the shower and air dried. Now, I just tie it back because it grew looking disheveled and frizzy.
Please know you are more than welcome in the wavy/curly/coily hair community. Everyone is on a journey and where you are on it is unique to you.
What a beautiful video. Thank you so so much for sharing! I recently got diagnosed with AGA and have been using the theradome helmet!
I’ve been so self conscious about my thin hair for so long until I saw a trichologist and I just felt so reassured!
Everyone needs to just talk about it and stop making it a hushed shameful secret!!!!
I'm an auto immune mess and after falling and breaking my arm my hair started falling out. That bout was physical stress that my body went through but then mental stress kicked in and the loss continues. Keep trying for us ❤️
We’re so sorry to hear about your experience. It’s tough when both physical and mental stressors come into play, especially with autoimmune issues. Thank you for sharing your journey with us-it takes a lot of courage. We’re committed to supporting you and everyone else facing similar challenges.
My previous comment was deleted because I included a link, but I'll try again. Thank you for being so honest about hair loss. I went through a bout of hair loss as a teenager due to stress, and it was pure hell. Hair loss in women doesn't seem to get taken seriously because it's seen as just a cosmetic issue and we are vain or shallow for caring so deeply. Losing your hair is so incredibly difficult and your honesty about it is refreshing and comforting. Sending you virtual hugs, you are not alone in this. I believe the device Lili Reinhart is using is the Celluma Restore device. It is not cheap, that's for sure!
I lost so much hair due to a combo of anxiety disorder + pcos + thyroid problems. Microneedling is miraculous to me. I do it once a week and I literally have more hair than I had in my 20s (I'm 35). Try it!
So you just micro needle the scalp?
How do we go about this? You do it yourself? You get it done somewhere?
that is clearly impossible,that't not how hair biology works.
Get a water filter for your shower head, yall! It helps! Avoid fragrance!
Up your vitamin D and Vitamin C! Get your thyroid, inflammatory, autoimmune, Prostaglandin, etc levels checked and make sure you are hydrating with electrolytes and things to help retain moisture in your oral intake and not just water alone!
Drinking water without enough salts can actually leave you more dehydrated!
Wash your hair brush with antiseptic soap that works for fungal and bacterial growth in between uses! You can also use safe body soap on your scalp, too, and sometimes fungus/bacteria on the scalp can cause issues with hair health!
If youre hypermobile and have possible allergies/ibs, maybe consider starting antihistamines (under doctors observation of course) like pepcid and zyrtec/Claritin, as well as mast cell stabilizers/antioxidants like CoQ10 and Qucertin! Check your products for your allergies and sensitivities/intolerances. I developed an mild allergy to coconut and was using products with it in it and i would get breakage two days after using a product. Lots of products have gluten that probs dont need to and celiac disease/ secondary gluten intolerance can lead to issues if your products have gluten in them.
I am so sick of these animal abusers and ex-vegan-of-10-years grifters in the comments. If her vegan (plant-based) diet was the problem and somehow magically her blood work still came out good and her doctors have missed it, then WHY are the majority of people, who lose their hair, animal-eaters? I don't hear people telling them: "It must be your animal-based diet". No. To them, people just say to add more supplements or get treatments. Imagine, saying to someone who might have a form of alopecia: "It Is BeCauSe YoU doN't eaT carcaSSes!" while not telling to animal-eaters to switch to plant-based diet. I literally know people who lose their hair and ARE animal-eaters...but the excuse for them is never the diet, but something else.
It's true that it's very important to find support. I hv been struggling with hairloss ever since late teenage..and my parents always dismissed my emotions or thought i was too vain for caring too much for it. It made it worse for me. I cried alone in my room after every hairwash day. I was too ashamed to talk about it with my friends. It has gotten a lot worse over the years..and i realise it has become more obvious now perhaps..i never really got a lot of support from my surroundings...but what helped was that i became a doctor.. I'm currently a doctor still studying for my specialization, so very new to the field..but I'm trying to treat myself, both my hairloss and the psychological aspect associated with it. Learning the science behind it has helped me a lot, atleast emotionally i think. It's something called " isolation of affect" which means trying to eliminate the emotional response from an event and purely dealing with it factually, like i would treat a fellow patient. I'm writing this because your videos have helped me a lot when i had no other emotional support. Thank you for doing this.
Thank you so much for sharing your story with us. It takes a lot of strength to navigate both hair loss and the emotional challenges that come with it, especially without support from those around you. We’re truly inspired by your journey and your commitment to becoming a doctor! It’s amazing that you’ve found a way to approach this issue both scientifically and emotionally.
We’re so glad Cassandra's videos have been a source of support for you during difficult times. Remember, you’re not alone in this, and it’s wonderful to see you empowering yourself through knowledge. If you ever have questions or want to share more, we’re here for you!
I’ve been watching you for a while now. Daily! ❤️ I wish you would realize what a positive and beautiful woman you are to us. 🙏🏼 You’re beautiful inside and out. And it hurts me when I hear you talk down to yourself. Even if it’s your therapist or your past acne experiences. I wish you could see yourself how I see you and I’m sure others that follow u.
I’ve learnt soooo much by watching u. And I share almost every video I watch of yours ❤️
Thank you so much for your incredibly kind words! It means a lot to hear that Cassandra's videos have made a positive impact on you. Your support and encouragement are truly uplifting, and we appreciate you sharing her content with others!
Cassandra. I tried a keratin treatment that went wrong, I ended up with several bald spots in my head. I can't say this was the cure, but I used Carol's daughter hair mask. I used that hair mask for awhile and by God's hands ✋️ I swear my bald spots grew more hair. I left it on over night. God bless your hair journey 🙏
Absolutely love this as a PCOS girly! Looks like Lili’s using a Celluma, we use one in our clinic here in New Zealand 🫶🏽
Thank you for talking about this and all the great links to your resources. I am going through a 3rd bout of hair loss, partly driven by hormonal issues but also following medical treatment. Its so hard to stay positive.
Thank you for your kind words! We’re sorry to hear you’re going through such a tough time with hair loss, especially dealing with hormonal issues and medical treatments. It’s completely understandable to find it challenging to stay positive. Remember, you’re not alone in this journey. If you have any questions or need support, we’re here for you and ready to help in any way we can.
Just diagnosed with alopecia areata at 33. First time I’ve ever experienced hair loss like this. It’s been a learning curve to say the least 🙃
We’re sorry to hear about your recent diagnosis with alopecia areata. It can be a challenging journey, especially when it’s your first experience with hair loss. Remember, you’re not alone in this, and many have found ways to manage it. If you have questions or need support as you navigate this learning curve, we’re here to help!
I'm in my 50s and I just saw a derm because of my excessive hair loss. Of course, she ordered lab work first just to make sure everything is okay on that front, and we surprisingly discovered that I have significant hyperthyroidism! Thank God she ordered those tests! I'm waiting to see an endocrinologist to get this addressed, and she said when I do my hair should return to normal. I totally understand how emotional hair loss is, and I send huge hugs out to everyone who's dealing with this! And Cassandra, you're doing a great service by making these videos, educating people, and letting them know that they aren't alone! 🤗
Thank you for sharing your story! We completely understand how emotional hair loss can be, and it’s great that you’re staying positive while awaiting your next steps. Your support for others in the community is truly inspiring! We’re here for you, and we appreciate your kind words about Cassandra’s video.
Make sure to take your b12 with a meal to avoid breakouts if you are mostly plant based. I had breakouts when I was taking the supplement by itself.
Benn struggling with hair loss since I was 20 (I'm 24 now). Went to a couple dermatologists and got on saw palmetto and various vitamins that would help. This did slow down the process. However, in the past year, it has gotten way worse. Booked an appointment with another dermatologist in 2 weeks. Hoping to get on minoxidil and finasteride :D
It’s great that you’re being proactive about your hair loss! It can be tough to navigate, but it sounds like you’re taking the right steps by consulting with dermatologists and exploring your options. We hope your upcoming appointment goes well and that you find a treatment that works for you. If you have any questions or need more information about how iRESTORE can complement your routine, feel free to reach out.
There are so many woman with this problem, many young ones also. But its tabu, you know? Its hard to talk about this with other woman that dont have this problem. I opem about this to a friend, and she asked if I the treatment Im doing is working... That hurt you know? Cause I can see it is, I see growth, but that question hurt like hell... So Im not gonna talk about it anymore, I want to do my treatment at peace, and stop sharing to much...
The iRestore is so expensive... Saving to get my hands on one.

@@iRestoreLaser Hey, I did the purchase not long after I commented Cassandra video. I have a question, can I use it everyday? Or in two in two days is enought? I got the Pro one (white). Thanks!
i take oral minoxidil two 2.5 MG per day and have had amazing results. i also follow good hair care practices across the board. i am 64 and have the best hair of my life. for me it was a successful plan and i am wondering why i never hear about others who do this?
Same here. Oral minoxidil is fantastic. So much regrowth 👍. I also take spironolactone, but oral minoxidil has been the game changer.
Speak on microneedling the scalp please!!!
I’m might be late but I see Lili still has her hair I was shocked that she was diagnosed with alopecia bcuz I have an crush on her
Hi Cassandra, she’s using a Celluma red light panel
This looks like the dermalux flex red light therapy.
I tried finasteride + minoxidil for 2 years and saw 0 results....
its sad because i had a beautiful hair...
I have great results with Finasteride and minoxidil, maybe you use a dose too low of Finasteride.

Just wear wigs. They’re fun !
:( Could it be harmful to use Irestore Elite more than once a day? I read somewhere it could over stimulate hairfolicles and therefore dor the opposite of what we are intending
Hi there! The answer is nuanced because individual hair responses vary. While we can’t formally recommend exceeding our stated protocol, many users have reported better results with more frequent use. Experts generally believe it’s safe to increase usage.
I have lupus, my hair started falling in patches from that when it “woke up”. But I started on my methotrexate, a chemo drug, it rapidly started falling out. Even whenever I get stressed, it becomes so much worse.
We’re really sorry to hear about your experience with lupus and the challenges you’re facing with hair loss. It’s tough when stress and medication contribute to these changes. Your health journey is important, and we’re here to support you in any way we can. If you ever have questions about treatments or need information, please don’t hesitate to reach out. You’re not alone in this!
I appreciate these videos. My hair is very healthy r n but my mom suffered really bad hair loss when she went through menopause so its something i worry about. Sometimes i wanna get the irestore as a preventative lol
Thank you for your kind words! It’s great to hear your hair is healthy right now. Being proactive about hair health is a smart move, especially if you have family history. The iRestore can definitely be a good option for prevention! If you have any questions or want to learn more about how it works, feel free to reach out. We’re here to help!
It's a very simple solution to all of this problem...it's very sad people don't see it.Its the most natural thing in the world.

I have had alopecia areata since i was like 18. Im now 27. Its stress related but it keeps growing back. I have done a good job at hiding, its mostly on the back of my head at my neck so my hair falls over it. But it is cold in the winterdays and it makes me selfconcious
Thank you for sharing your experience with alopecia areata. It’s completely understandable to feel self-conscious, especially in colder weather. We’re glad to hear your hair has been growing back, and it’s great that you’ve found ways to manage it. If you ever want to explore additional options or treatments, we’re here to help.

Is laser better than infrared for hair regrowth? My current red light therapy has red LEDs and infrared lights so IDK if switching to this is better or worse
Based on physics, it depends more on the exact wavelength to target the deeper layers of the dermis. Lasers are more exact than LED
Hi there! Lasers and LEDs work together to boost hair regrowth. The lasers zero in on specific spots, while the LEDs fill in the gaps, giving you full scalp coverage and just the right energy to stimulate your hair follicles.
Does anybody know how can I ship an iRestore helmet to Portugal?
Yes, we ship to Portugal! Standard shipping starts at $150, plus any applicable import fees and taxes. Feel free to send a message, and we'd be happy to help you with international shipping.

Love when you're doing this hair loss awareness videos ❤ It's something I'm struggling whith since 2014 (when I was 14), and it only got worse, but because this topic is more popular this days, I'm feeling less alone 🥲, now my hair is doing a bit better, I had a trichotest and my dermatologist prescribed to me a personalized serum containing minoxidil, tretinoin, spironalactone and after almost 1y since I started it, I noticed new very thin hairs growing back on my scalp (of course I'm tracking this through pictures because my vision wouldn't allow me😅), also tried PRP and microneedling (1.1mm needles), now really thinking to start oral minoxidil and spironalactone to see if I will get better results than topically (I have no fear of facial hair😂)
Thank you for sharing your story with us! It’s inspiring to hear how you’re actively addressing your hair loss and seeing progress. It’s great that you’re feeling less alone in this struggle, especially as awareness grows. Keep us updated on your journey-we’re here cheering you on!
❤❤
I have very fine end not much hair, hole my live, my hair don’t grow just to my neck the hair break of in contact with my neck, end it is so thin en less that it is similar like toddlers who don’t have a first ✂️, I have like they cal it baby hair. My family have long hair nog fine. So it is not genetic, I tried everything end the last what I looked for was an operation ( like male who are bald they can do a operation that they have again hair there) so I want that, but it is not an option for my because in the tests it came out I have over my hole skull (where the hair is) inside not enough hair testikels, I never had, because in these operation they take hair testikels from another place en place it where the hair not grow, but I have over my hole skull not enough, popelen think I have a disease, but I have not I don’t have bald places, but it is so fine end less that you can see my skull a little bit. Notting works
Should look at drugs first. Certain SSRI's can cause as well as many others!
I just watched your “Stop Wasting Your Money On Red LED Light Therapy...” video. Now I see you wearing that helmet. What a coincidence, haha
Yeah she goes back and forth a lot so at this point I don’t know how to trust or understand anything she says. Makes me sad.
Obvs you didn’t watch that video. It’s about stop wasting money on junky LED that have no power and incorrect wavelengths.
@@sunfeatherX3She doesn't go back and forth, careful listening with comprehension is key here, it's a nuanced topic and you won't be getting a black and white yes or no answer.
Hello Cassandra...love the video: packed with education and compassion- your struggles with hair loss are very relatable and so are your experiences and sentiments about acne
Hi there! Thank you so much for your kind words! We're glad you found the video helpful and relatable. Hair loss and skin issues can be challenging, and it’s important to share experiences and support each other. 🙌
I really appreciate you being so open and vulnerable about this! I've recently resorted to wearing wigs as my hair loss is what I'd consider beyond salvation. I'm not sure what the technical term is (androgenic alopecia?) but I was on high doses of testosterone for treating gender dysphoria for a long ass time and it caused me male pattern hair loss. I didn't need to see a doc to figure that's the cause. I'm now detransitioning to be a woman again, but with this stage of hair loss (around Norwood 5) there's very little hope for restoration.
I was in deep denial of it for a little too long, and everyone in my life kept telling me my hair looked fine. It's not. It has a very high hairline with a whispy little widow's peak, and I lost about 80% of the original density. No bald patches aside from the hairline, but it's so thin and fine that it breaks super easily and can't grow long anymore, or properly cover my scalp. Eventually I just got so anxious about it that I couldn't keep going like that.
So I decided I'm just gonna shave it off and wear wigs instead. And I've been doing that for some 6 months of so now. It's kinda annoying but it makes me feel like I look like myself. I'm not comfortable going out bald in public because even when shaved my hair loss pattern is very obvious, and it looks a lot like a man's hairline. I would have to razor shave it every day and put makeup on it for it to look presentable and I just don't have that kinda patience. Also I went straight for wigs and skipped toppers and extentions because my bio hair is so fragile it really can't handle any extra weight pulling at it, plus my hairline is my biggest issue, and wigs is the only thing that can cover that.
I'm coping fine at this point but sometimes it does get difficult and I have my occasional bad days when I just feel horribly ugly. I did spend about a year grieving my hair back in 2019, and I feel like I've processed through most of that by now. But it does still feel like I lost a part of my identity and womanhood. I don't beat myself up for the decisions I made in the past though. I stayed on the testosterone for as long as I did because it did genuinely help me feel better about my body overall, and that helped me through a very difficult time of my life. Even though I later on realized I'm not transgender, I can't regret doing what I did to survive.
Even though my doctors said the same about my vegan diet, the moment I resorted to incorporating meat, fish, eggs and more protein generally, not only my hair fall ceased the NEXT DAY, but also my brain fog was lifted amongst other things. Everybody is different. But my body’s equilibrium looks like this and my hair grew back thick in no time. It was absolutely my diet for me.
😂🥴
Same. I wasn't getting enough leucine from plants. I added whey powder and I stopped shedding
See I know what you're saying is bs as soon as you say you stopped losing you're hair the next day😂 That's not how it works.
@@Looksthatkale I am telling you how it worked for my body. Might be bs to you and your body. Not mine. I was just trying to help someone on the internet with a problem I was facing. You don’t need to be a bully about it. Geez.
@@Looksthatkale and when I tell you my hair fall ceased the NEXT DAY. It ceased the NEXT DAY. As dramatic as it sounds. I just had a severe protein deficiency solely from my vegan diet that I very proudly was on for a decade. In a few weeks, my random vague ailments and brain fog lifted after adding protein. My vegan diet turned out to be not sustainable to me mainly because of my declining mental health that was directly caused by my hair loss and vice versa. Nobody is asking anybody to quit a vegan diet, how about “try” incorporating more protein into your diet for a few days/ weeks to see if it may be the cause? Our bodies weren’t designed to be restricted to a certain diet. Moderation of everything is key. Does this sound too crazy? Ok. Il just stop fighting for my fellow hair loss girlies then. Rather than be bullied. But there is nothing I wish more than to stick to my vegan diet to this day, my body doesn’t approve or cooperate though.
So sorry to hear you battled with that Cassandra. Thank you for opening up about all these issues, it helps to normalise it for all of us. I lost about a quarter of my hair after being hospitalised with Covid pneumonia in 20/21. It grew back but I was heartbroken at the time . Had 2 further bouts with hospitalisation , blood clots, as well as having an operation to remove a breast cyst which also caused hair loss rollercoaster. But it’s grown back every time so not too anxious about it many more. Having quite a bit of magnesium which as soon as I up my daily dose, I feel the difference in my hair and nails. You are such a good role model Cassandra, love watching your videos
Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re really glad to hear that you’ve been able to find ways to manage your hair loss after such challenging experiences. We appreciate you sharing your journey, as it helps to create a supportive community for everyone facing similar challenges.
@@iRestoreLaser thank you, I wish everyone going through this the best of luck , it can be very distressing for both men and women and it worries me that there are a lot of charlatans making false claims out there
These things sound great but what about those of us who can't afford these treatments we are left in dust
True
Hi there I took magnesium and then also used a home remedy that worked really well, ingredients are low cost. Placenta together with Bergamot, Bay-Rum which you should be able to find easily at a pharmacy at generic prices. Best of luck 💜
I wasn’t sure whether to watch this video on hair loss if I would be able to handle it. 2 years after losing my hair to Leukemia (it started growing back normally at first) I started losing my hair, first the doctors thought it was alopecia areata but after trying lots of things I had to face that it was actually scarring alopecia so no irestore helmet ot anything is going to fix the spots where there are no hair follicles. Ok I’m tearing up writing this. I used to be one of those people who always had funky hair so losing this part of my identity has been challenging even though I’ve now been dealing with it for nearly 4 years I struggle majorly with depression and anxiety, and I already had mental health problems before cancer and then hair loss. I just spent over 6 weeks in a mental health hospital which I only came out of last weekend
My parents today said they are going to splurge out and get a wig custom made for me which is going to cost thousands which I am so so so grateful for. But it’s not the same as having your own hair. Especially living in Australia where summers are hot and the last thing you want to do is wear a wig and putting a wig in a pony tail in day to day life doesn’t look quite right in my opinion.
Anyway that’s why I started following you for skin care on my face as that seems to be the only thing on my body I can control . The skin on my body is brown and white patches. I have had to have 2 hip total replacements because of the medications I’m on and I have problems with my left leg. Oh and I lost a bit of my vision and this started early 30s…. BUT anyway going to the positive part I get now so many compliments on my face skin and how I look so much younger than I am which I thank you for, coz not only do I trust your opinions you also promote vegan and cruelty free brands which is important to me.
I hope to find someone in a similar situation I can talk to, but I doubt that will happen 🦋🤎
I have been struggling with hair for years! Im 43. i think i was 19 when i first noticed i had bald spots. Unfortunately, im not financially stable or ever have been to treat it! I have tried so many things nothing worked so i started using hair powder and thats what I've been using for a long time now and i hate it because i use dark brown because that my hair color. But its so annoying because it gets in my clothes and i can't get close for pictures with my family because it gets on everyone's clothes i just can't afford anything else but yea thats what im currently doing for my hair loss
I had an anxiety filled childhood which led to major depression. I'm 60 now and my husband died 14 years ago suddenly, the stress of which caused my hair to start falling out. It got so thin and straggly that a couple of years ago I got a buzz cut! Now I love my super short hair, at my age its not going to grow back nice and thick like it used to be and I can't afford all the treatments etc.
It looks like she is using the Celluma.
When I was younger I had really thick hair, and it would grow quickly. Now after having kids and getting older, I notice that my hair is thinner, and when I shower there is a lot of fallout. I like these videos to see what you have tried and what has worked.

I have lost my hair from taking medication, because I recently had a kidney transplant. Do you think these devices will work for me? Your prompt response to my inquiry is greatly appreciated. Thank you!
I'm sure you can find a cheaper laser device that will help. As a nurse, I can say that you will see the best results as your kidney function improves and your protein intake can increase. You might try a supplement high in leucine when your neph says okay
Hello! Our devices are designed for treating androgenic alopecia, but a lot of people have had success with hair loss from different conditions too. If you have specific medical issues, we always suggest checking with your doctor to make sure the device is a good fit for you.
Cassandra, how do you travel in plain with the iRestore? Can you take it with you in cabbin?
Hi! The iRESTORE is designed for both convenient home use and for traveling. The helmet was engineered so that you could enjoy clinical-strength laser technology in the convenience of your own time, or wherever you choose to use it. The hands-free device is one of the most comfortable, compact, and lightweight (2.6 pounds) devices on the market, which makes it ideal for traveling or transferring from one location to another.
@@iRestoreLaser Hi! But how do I travel in a plain with it? I dont wanna broke it or get it arrested by airport security.
Need this ❤❤❤❤❤❤
And it needs you 🙌
I'm almost 30, My hair started falling out when I was in my early 20s. At the time I was dealing with so much stuff I couldn't even be bothered to figure out what was going on. Eventually I looked in the mirror and realized how bad it had gotten and broke down, I called my dr crying and we started the long road of tests a week later. After a few months we figured out it was PCOS related. Fast forward to now and my hair is still super thin, its getting better but still not where I'd like it to be. Hair toppers have been a game changer for my confidence though, I almost always wear one when going out. They're so much more comfortable than wigs. (Which I've also tried.) For anyone struggling I wish you nothing but the best, I know it seems hard to believe now but this does not define you. You are beautiful and worthy of love regardless of your looks.❤ Much love to this community.

I had alopecia areata when I was in my early/mid teens back in 2000/2001. I had two sizeable spots and one small one but the largest was on the top of my head near the front and was hard to keep covered. I don’t think anyone at school found out luckily but there wasn’t anything at the time (certainly for me) that could help bring my hair back. I was told I just had to wait and see what happens and try not to stress 😅
I was incredibly lucky and had it just for a couple of years and my hair grew back but a really different texture which was noticeable into my mid 20’s.
I think about it all the time and how it can just decide to pop up again, maybe worse, seemingly with no obvious triggers to why it happened the first time. I would 100% buy the iRestore if it ever happened to me again
Thank you for sharing your experience with alopecia areata. It’s understandable to have lingering worries after going through something like that, especially when it can be unpredictable. We’re glad to hear your hair grew back, even if it came back with a different texture. If you ever find yourself in a similar situation again, the iRESTORE could be a great option for you!
Never fails to impress ❤
We love to hear it! 🙌
Ok Cassandra! I ordered irestore and I am ready to experiment!!!!
So excited for you to try! 😍
@@iRestoreLaser I am loving it!
We have heard and seen enough commercials about this helmet…..
I purchased this helmet and binned it. No results whatsoever. Stick to oral minox if you want results.
@@Schnuckiputz-y7o or as a guy. Oral Finasteride and topical Minoxidil 5% really works for me
Please stop crying on camera
At least celebs have a whole team of derms and other experts and shitload of money to fix their mental and physical healt problems. For the average person, the financial problems even add to your stress hence making the symptoms worse🥲
