Perimenopause Hair Loss: 3 Key Ingredients Hair Growth Serums Must Have

Intro

Perimenopause is the time during which your body makes the natural transition to menopause, marking the end of the reproductive years.

Perimenopause means “around menopause” and is also called the menopausal transition.

Women start perimenopause at different ages. Some notice signs, such as irregular periods, in their 40s and others in their mid-30s.

The level of estrogen rises and drops irregularly during perimenopause.  

Estrogen and progesterone are responsible for keeping the hair in the growing phase, allowing it to grow faster and stay on the head longer.

 When estrogen and progesterone levels drop, it triggers an increase in male hormones called androgens.

Androgens are responsible for shrinking hair follicles which can result in a slowing of hair growth and an increase in hair loss. For some, these hormones are responsible for more hair to grow on the face as well.

So, if you want to increase your odds of great hair during menopause, and lessen the effects of menopause and hair loss, it’s worth finding out the three key ingredients hair growth serums must have.

Perimenopause Hair Loss: 3 Key Ingredients Hair Growth Serums Must Have

1. Proven Penetrating Oils: Oils come in different sizes and it’s important that the oils used are small enough to penetrate into the hair. If the oils used are too large, they won’t penetrate the hair and cause problems for your hair, scalp, and follicles. Though trusted by cultures forever, oils like coconut, olive, argan, etc., may have styling merit by adding a “feeling” of moisture and shine on the surface of the hair strand, it doesn’t go into the hair. By the way, adding “oil” to the hair is shunned because it insinuates dirty hair, oily hair, greasy hair, dandruff hair, etc. The manufacturer marketing geniuses call them serums, to mask the facts of the oils and silicone fillers. 

Unfortunately, the molecular weight of most organic and natural oils in serums are too large to penetrate the imbrications of the hair. Though shea butter is often heralded, it’s molecularly WAY too large.

So, in certain situations, the slippery feel will at least allow combs and brushes to slide through a bit easier but has very little to do with strengthening or moisturizing the interior core of the hair.
The heaviness of the hair is due to its inability to absorb into the hair strand or follicle area causing all sorts of short and long-term problems with hair growth, simple style ability, and longevity.

Heavy oils don’t add moisture to the hair. In fact, with a bit of heat, you might be doing to the hair what hot oil does to egg proteins in a pan. It makes them stiff (egg whites) with crispy edges which might taste great as a fried egg. In hair, though, it hardens the strand, crisps the ends (splits them), and breaks them. Keep using serum oils and you’ll end up with dry, thin, broken hair!

With advances in science, new extraction methods have been employed to pull just the “essence” of the oils. These smaller versions are rare, expensive, and not a common ingredient for mass market and salon products. These smaller versions of oils are the most beneficial to the scalp and hair growth bulb in keeping flexibility and pliability.

2. A Blood Circulation Stimulator That Is Hypo-allergenic: It’s beneficial to use a topical and transdermal blood stimulator that makes the blood rush to the follicles to deliver a few extra loads of hair building blocks.

Not all stimulators are suitable. Some use capsicum (red pepper), limonene (citrus peel oils), Isopropyl Alcohol (medicinal rubbing alcohol), or linalool (umbrella term for terpene alcohol extracts, some as harsh as turpentine), and a host of volatile active oils.

These could be considered safe for most when used responsibly, but for those with sensitivities, your skin could react badly. At Belegenza, we’ve added a bit of a natural stimulator, menthol. Very few are allergic to it. As well, we add just a bit to get the job done.

3. Emulsifiers That Keep the Follicles Moisturized Without Clogging the Follicle: Each day as you struggle through perimenopause-hair-loss-time to keep each and every hair on your head happy, alive, and well, the chemicals that are hidden in those supposedly helpful products are terrorizing the acid mantel and sebaceous glands.

As your scalp senses the terror from the chemically-laden hair products, it signals your sebaceous glands to help balance the acid mantle. The glands go into hyper-mode squirting out sebum and this is why your hair may look good in the morning, but by afternoon it looks like a hot mess.

Conclusion

During this perimenopause hair loss time, doing all the right things for your follicles  is most important, to be sure that the follicles are properly nourished to avoid the death of those follicles. It’s a critical time that many miss, fortunately, there are things you can do to minimize the loss and care for your scalp to optimize hair regrowth.
