How can blood tests be used in hair loss diagnosis?

Tolu Blooms, the fine hair coach is a trichologist and has a salon in  Lagos, Nigeria, where she takes a holistic approach to hair.

She explains how 'protective' hairstyles that may be popular can be detrimental to hair health and shares her philosophy that hairstyles should never be painful!

Tolu invited a Trichologist into her salon to train her staff, and this was what sparked her curiosity to study the science of the hair & scalp herself.

We discuss when and why you may need to get blood tests taken, and how to use and interpret the results to aid in diagnosis and formulating a treatment plan, after Tolu shares her own recent experience of discovering she had an iron deficiency.

Tolu explains that prompt action is key with the statement 'time is follicles'!
