Temporary Hair Loss

Permanent hair loss happens to most of us due to genetics,  however,  for some hair loss may be temporary.  Things like anxiety and stress, poor nutrition, overuse of hot tools or chemicals or taking certain medications can all cause breakage and hair loss.

Keeping on top of your nutrition is key. Taking supplements like multi vitamins with iron will help to keep your hair healthy. While having a healthy diet filled with fruits, vegetables and grains will also keep your hair looking its best.

Exercise is also a big factor when taking care of your hair.  Keeping yourself fit helps to keep your hair looking great too because it reduces stress and anxiety.

Making sure not to use hot tools on a daily basis is a great idea. Try using flat irons or your hair dryer sparingly, maybe 2-3 times per week at most.

Finally for some, there may not be any choice when it comes to the medications we take due to different ailments.  Sadly medications are one of the leading reasons people experience temporary and in some cases permanent hair loss.  Talk to your doctor before going on any medications and do your research to find out if hair loss is a side effect.

Melanomas and hair loss

Melanoma can effect anyone and for those of us experiencing hair loss our risks can be greater.  The more risk factors you have, the more likely you are to get Melanoma.  The following are the risk factors you need to know:


Having a lot of moles
If you have a lot of moles, particularly large ones, keeping track of them with a Dermatologist is very important.

Being an over 50 white male
Men who are over 50 and are of Caucasian descent tend to have a higher risk of getting Melanoma then their non-white counterparts.  Paying particular attention to the back and to the scalp is key. At Donte's of New York,  we work closely with our client's scalps, and in doing so, we have been able to help identify many suspicious moles on our customers scalps. Although  they are not always happy to get this news, they are always grateful to have them removed before they turn into something much worse.

Spending a lot of time in the sunlight
Although the sun's rays helps with our vitamin D intake, it is important to know that the sunlight is still carcinogenic to our skin.  The more you burn the higher your risk of developing melanoma.

Genetics
Melanomas usually run in families.  If you know that a great deal of your family members have been treated for Melanoma, it should be a priority for you to visit with a Dermatologist on a regular basis to make sure that your skin is being watched.

How strong is your hair? Take this simple test to find out

Hair is built to be strong but over time the layers begin to wear down from the environment, heat and styling.  So, how strong is your hair?  Take this test to find out.

Take a single strand of hair and tug on it.  If your hair is strong it should stretch about 30% of it's length and spring back.  If you find that your hair breaks, or does not bounce back, it's time to work on strengthening it.

How does one go about strengthening weak, damaged or brittle hair? Donte's of New York, the Premier Hair Loss Treatment Center in Scottsdale, Arizona, has the answer.

  1. Use the right products- If you have dry, damaged or weak hair, using the right products can make all the difference in the world.  Our go to line of products is called, Hair Support. Hair Support offers the right products to strengthen your hair naturally.  A deep cleansing shampoo that gets down to the root, to unclog your hair follicle and allow your hair to grow through. A conditioner that strengthens and helps to keep your hair shiny and manageable and finally an overnight treatment that will help keep your scalp healthy.  
  2. Eat the right foods-Protein is the main food type that will help your  hair to become stronger.  So, add eggs, lean meats and beans to your diets and watch how strong your hair becomes.
  3. Stay away from high heat-If you are going to use a hair dryer then do not use a flat iron and vice a versa. When you do use either of these, do not keep heat in one area for very long. Heat dries out hair so focusing heat on the hair will only produce dry, brittle and broken hair.
Donte's of New York offers solutions for people with fine hair, thinning hair or hair loss. We have all non damaging treatments to provide you with a full head of hair you have always dreamed of. Call us today for a free consultation-480-483-8800 or visit us on the web: www.Dontes.net.

Only the best hair extensions with Donte's of New York

Why are the hair extensions at Donte's of New York different?  We have spent years, (over 50 to be exact) to find the right type of hair and the right type of extensions for our clients.

Hair quality is extremely important when wearing hair extensions. You don't want hair that is going to knot or shed. You want hair that is shiny and full of life.  At Donte's of New York we use the highest quality hair extensions around, non tangling, non shedding and most of all gorgeous.

The application of your hair extensions is also very important. You want to have your extensions applied in such a way so that there is no lasting damage done to your hair.  Gluing, braiding and sewing will only leave your hair with damage and even hair loss. At Donte's of New York our extensions are applied by our highly trained (by Donte himself) technicians in ways that will allow your hair to grow in a healthy way, leaving you with a beautiful head of hair.

 If you are looking for top quality hair extensions, then Donte's of New York is where you will find them. Please visit us on the web at:  www.dontes.com or call us for your FREE consultation at:  480-483-8800 today!
