How Age Affects Your Hair — The Science in 30 Seconds
Hair loss isn’t random.
What you see at 35, 45, or 55 is the result of years of hormonal shifts, genetics, and follicle aging working together beneath the scalp.
Here’s what really changes with age:
🔹 DHT exposure adds up — miniaturizing follicles over decades.
🔹 Scalp blood flow decreases, especially after age 50.
🔹 Follicle stem cells slow down, shortening growth cycles.
🔹 Menopause & hormonal shifts impact hair diameter in women.
🔹 Environmental damage (UV, stress, smoking) weakens aging hair even more.
The good news?
It’s never too late to act.
Modern treatments — finasteride, topical therapy, PRP, LaserCap, FUE/FUT — work at every age when tailored properly.
