DHT sensitivity can be triggered by genetics, stress, poor diet, and environmental toxins — slowly shrinking your follicles over time.

Physical or emotional stress pushes hair follicles into a resting phase prematurely — leading to sudden thinning and excessive shedding.

Nutrient gaps from poor diet or weak absorption starve your follicles of the building blocks they need to produce strong, healthy hair.

Heat styling, chemical treatments, harsh products, and pollution all weaken the hair shaft and damage the scalp environment over time.

A sluggish metabolism affects how efficiently nutrients reach your hair follicles — slowing growth and reducing hair density.

As you age, your scalp loses collagen and elastin — weakening its grip on each strand and thinning your hair gradually.
