Distance.
Anxiety.
Isolation.
Hair loss can compel sufferers to avoid social activities. By contrast, hair loss solutions like those found at HairClub full-service salons, can turn everything around for the better.
In her role as medical advisor to HairClub, Dr. Angela Phipps has seen it all, from how hair loss contributes to low self-esteem and alienating loved ones, to joyful hair transformations that give people a reason to affect positive change.
Most of all, hair health expert Dr. Phipps has a prescription of hope and healing from hair loss.
HairClub’s own Heather Lee, dynamic director of marketing communications and operations, sat down with our top doc. Watch as she gets the scoop on the psychological effects of hair loss and how HairClub can help.
00:00 Intro
00:17 Heather Lee has spent a career in the beauty business. But it wasn’t until joining HairClub that she gained a sense of awareness about how hair loss effects people emotionally.
00:50 Dr. Angela Phipps is accustomed to hair loss clients in her practice coming in very emotional, even to the point of breaking down and crying.
01:05 Keeping feelings of embarrassment and even shame to themselves, clients can feel as though their own family members, especially those with a full head of hair, don’t understand the negativity hair loss creates in their life.
01:12 When they see Dr. Phipps, it’s a release of how they have been feeling. A trusting relationship develops in which her clients feel heard and seen.
01:30 Dr. Phipps does everything in her power to find solutions for the best presentation of their hair.
01:35 Hair loss crosses both genders, but women often have more anxiety - the taboo of external female baldness casting a shadow over their internal self-worth.
01:40 For men, hair loss can deliver a devastating impact. Dr. Phipps will never forget one client she once treated who was obese and bald.
01:53 Dr. Phipps recalls his saying, “What bothers me the most is not having hair - and that’s why I don’t go to the gym. Not because of my weight, but because I can’t stand seeing my reflection in all of those mirrors and feeling like everyone is looking at my head because of lack of hair.”
02:20 Dr. Phipps performed two surgical restoration procedures on this client. A year later when she saw him again, he had lost 150 pounds and through tears he shared what having hair meant to him.
03:00 When his hair grew in, the man gained the confidence to go to the gym where he met his fiancé and later became a father. He told Dr. Phipps that getting his hair back changed the entire trajectory of his life.
03:12 To know that hair can have that much of an impact on someone’s life and that it is not just vanity, that is what drives Dr. Phipps to come to work every day.
03:25 Dr. Phipps’ female patients have their own set of concerns when it comes to hair loss. By the time Dr. Phipps sees them in her office, they are tired of hair loss being dismissed as not a real medical problem.
03:40 The other side of that coin is frustration of people automatically assuming women with hair loss have an illness or are going through chemotherapy, as opposed to thinning hair.
04:00 Bald is beautiful in the men’s world, but not necessarily in the female world, with the exception of African American women who do and should wear baldness with stunning beauty. 04:20 Being accepted and celebrated with any length of hair or none at all, is something Dr. Phipps wishes all women would embrace.
04:40 Heather recognizes Dr. Phipps passion and loving her role as HairClub hair health medical advisor, bringing the HairClub tagline to life - love your hair, live your life.
05:10 HairClub empowers people. If hair helps someone have a better life, that’s what important, Dr. Phipps agrees.
