How do I determine if my hair loss is genetic / hereditary or not?

November 26, 2011

Good question Andres…but easy answer….

First…look at your parents.

If you father is balding then it is genetic
If you mother’s father is bald it is genetic
If your father’s father is bald, it is genetic
If ANY of your grandfathers were bald, it is genetic
If you mother has hair loss, it is genetic

Hair loss can also be temporary due to stress, menopause, pregnancy, chemo, illness, or drug use (yes, drugs like cocaine and amphetamines are NOT good for hair).

ManeGain Expands To San Antonio

November 22, 2011

San Antonio & Austin, TX – November 23, 2011: ManeGain has expanded its operations outside of Austin, Texas and is now growing hair in San Antonio, Texas with the addition of AMAR Cosmetics to its growing list of locations.

Deborah Schneider, owner of AMAR Cosmetics, explains why she added the ManeGain HairGrower to her product offerings: “I have been offering ultra exclusive cosmetics and skin care products since 2008, and we tend to service a very discerning clientele that is generally between 35 and 60 years of age, exactly the clientele that is often looking to preserve or restore the youthful appearance of their aging hairline.  AMAR Cosmetics has many beauty products that can only be purchased in one or two other stores in San Antonio, or in the case of the ManeGain, ONLY at AMAR Cosmetics,” said Mrs. Schneider.

Mrs. Schneider added, “For the last year or so, we have been expanding AMAR’s services, and ManeGain fits right in perfectly.  Earlier this year we added Aesthetician Services with Mrs. Cynthia Sandoval, and more recently our 2nd aesthetician, Mrs. Elena Kate Fletcher.  Last month we added celebrity hairstylist Giacomo Forbes. Since Mr. Forbes is also the Director of Training and Education for ManeGain, the addition of ManeGain simply made sense.  The exciting part is, after only two months in service at our store, several of our long-time clients are already extolling the benefits of ManeGain with their own hair. I started off skeptical, but when my important clients start to tell me it is working, I know I have added something of value to our product and service line-up.”

The ManeGain HairGrower, which looks very much like a salon hair dryer, bathes the scalp and hair with three types of light energies: Low Level Lasers, Visible Light, and Magnetic Energy.  In combination, these therapies maximize hair volume, thickness, and strength at its source and even reverse hair loss.  ManeGain’s CEO, Barry Thornton, explains, “The ManeGain Therapy actually reverses the “root” causes of hair loss, or alopecia.  It bathes the scalp with naturally occurring energies and acts as sort of time machine to reverse normal age-related hair loss between 5 to 20 years in most people.”

Jeffrey Fry, ManeGain Marketing Chief added, “In the world of hair, beauty, and fashion, there are some locations and salons that cater to an elite, ultra sophisticated, and discriminating clientele.  These customers demand the most exclusive products and services available. We have found that being able to offer our differentiated product to these locales under a new model headed my Giacomo Forbes is a great way to extend our unique service these affluent customers.  AMAR is a perfect location to try our new services program, and so far, it has perform beyond expectations.”

The ManeGain HALO Therapy involves no special procedures.  The technology has been approved by the FDA, and there are no known side effects or contraindications.

Freedom is Another Word for….

November 12, 2011

What is the best possible gift you can give to someone you are caring of?

How does Freedom sound?

‘No one is free who is not master of themselves”
–Epictetus

We personally are the greatest constrainer of our internal freedom, when we are fearful, we are not free for the demons inside us limit who we are.

The biggest demon is who we see ourselves as, what others see us as, that demon keeps us locked up inside in fear and shame.  Your hair is that demon if you let it be.  Failing hair is a sign of failing life, it is right out there for everyone to see, it is an admission of not being in control.

If you love someone, profoundly care about them, you want them to be as free as possible to be themselves.  Failing hair caps that freedom.  It makes people less than they can be, to themselves and to you.

The greatest gift you can give to your loved one is to stop their hair failing, to take away that demon.  You can do this, you can give your loved one back their life and thus enjoy both your lives together without having to cower inside but open up to the free world around you.  Take back that freedom; let us help you get hair and life back.

Confidence, What is It?

November 10, 2011

Confidence – a wonderful word.  I mean that, a word filled with wonder.  Personal power is rooted in personal confidence, to believe in yourself is to be strong and in control, as F. W.  Robertson said; “Doubt cramps energy, Belief is power.”

One of the most profound doubts is our personal glamour, our ability to influence others at a distance by our looks (glamour is basically the ability to seduce others at a distance, to project ‘us’ to ‘them’).

We all know, deep down inside ourselves, that our hair is the most important projection at a distance we can make.  Even more, once it succeeds and we get close, if what someone sees close does not match what they saw at a distance, the spell is broken and lost.

The reality of having good hair is that is makes and maintains the spell allowing us, the “who” we are inside, to come out.  Bad hair, especially close up, distracts and speaks of deception; people can’t see who we are because they are confused by the change in perception. As they got close it all changed, we changed, all before we could reach out to show the real us.

Your hair is the proscenium of your soul defining the stage you launch yourself from; it’s all in the hair.

As James Brown said: “Hair is the first thing and teeth the second.  You got those two things and you got it all.”

A dentist will fix your teeth; ManeGain will fix your hair.

New Hair, Naturally

November 6, 2011

by Barry Thornton
(originally printed in the November issue of Natural Awakenings Magazine)

The body’s natural processes can make our hair tired and weak, or even cause it to go away. The cells that make our hair are losing their lust for life, along with the ability to grow robust and healthy hairs.

There is no rule of nature that says this is the way things have to be. If individuals are healthy and fit, their hair problem is not a medical condition, but a genetic one. The good news is that we don’t have to accept this fate.

Hair growth is a natural pro- cess — we can’t force it to grow. Solving the problem with chemicals or surgery is a brute force approach; they only paint over the problem and frequently do so with those proverbial unintended and unpleasant side effects.

There is a way to get new healthy hair to grow in and replace what is happening now—and it’s a natural and organic process. To understand, we must think like an organic farmer. Male or female, our goal is to energize our hair cells to produce great hair. So what would an organic farmer do?

First, we need to understand the “crop” that is the individual hairs on our head.

A hair follicle is a cell colony whose sole task is to produce a hair at the rate of about half an inch per month. At the bottom of the follicle is about 1,200 stem cells—each producing a stand of keratin. The rest of the cells add some color, lubricate it, create a sheath around this bundle of strands, and push it out of the scalp to be a hair. The follicle grows a hair for a few years and then takes a break. It shuts down and recuperates for a couple of months, and then it starts up again on a new hair and pushes the old hair out. Individuals naturally shed about 100 hairs a day, which also means about 100 new hairs start each day.

The problem is that a hormone found in both men and women causes some of the stem cells to stop growing too soon. As this process builds each time the hair goes through a growth cycle, it gradually becomes thinner and weaker. Eventually it stops growing altogether. Virtually all hair issues are stages of this process.

Back to our organic farmer; he or she thinks in terms of the purity of the four basic ingredients of life: Energy, Food, Air and Time.

Energy

The follicle is in desperate need of a boost from outside energies. The way energy is moved in nature is in the form of photons (what we call light when we see it). Photons excite and stimulate cells, which is why it is so important.

Certain photons are more effective than others. Photons that are synchronized do things together that they could not do alone are called laser photons. The right collection of photons aimed at the hair follicles will reverse the aging process of the follicle and get it to produce new and vibrant hairs.

Food and Air

Making a hair takes a lot of the body’s raw materials. It has to be delivered to the cells by the blood stream, which is why good blood flow in the scalp is mandatory for good hair growth. A healthy diet provides all the necessary basics but getting it to the cells can be an issue. There are natural energies that make the blood flow better at a cellular level. This energy is based on the Earth’s natural magnetic field.

Time

Hair follicles work shifts. When a program is started to bring the hair back, the follicles have to wake up, which usually takes about a month. New, thicker hair is visible in two to three months. Like a farmer, one must be willing to invest some time in the project. Patience is a virtue that yields new hair, strength, confidence and a new you.

A technology that uses the most basic natural process for the respiration of hair cells is ManeGain HALO— a process that delivers energies to the scalp over the right amount of time. The specific energies have each been tuned or optimized for their task. HALO consists of laser photon packets, four selected energy bands of sunlight like photons, a pulsed pure magnetic field, and a computer drive delivery system to get the energy concentrated at all angles on the scalp.

The HALO process is delivered from a machine that looks a bit like a hair dryer hood at select salons and spas. Individuals sit under it for 25-minute sessions to grow new hair naturally.

Barry Thornton is the inventor of the ManeGain Hairgrower, and co-founder of ManeGain. The ManeGain HALO Therapy is available at select spas and salons in the greater Austin area, in addition at select locations in San Antonio, Houston, and Dallas.

ManeGain Offers Revolutionary Hair Regrowth Technology at Finley’s Barber Shop

October 29, 2011

ManeGain, a cutting edge company that has developed a new, natural hair regrowth and restoration therapy, is pleased to add Finley’s Barber Shop to the cadre of premiere salons and hair institutions offering its ManeGain HALO Therapy.   This FDA-approved Therapy is a high-technology based treatment comprised of three non-invasive light energies that, when delivered simultaneously, stimulates the hair follicle cells, enhances blood flow, and minimizes the causes of gender pattern baldness, naturally reversing thinning hair and hair loss. ManeGain is so confident of this technology that a money back guarantee is offered to customers.

ManeGain’s CEO, Barry Thornton, explains, “The ManeGain HALO Therapy actually reverses the “root” causes of hair loss, or alopecia and grows hair.  It bathes the scalp with naturally occurring energies and acts as sort of time machine to reverse normal age-related hair loss between 5 to 20 years in most people.  We started ManeGain thinking that this would be something gentlemen would be very interested in.”

When asked why Finley’s Barber Shop was offering the ManeGain Therapy, Founder Scott Finley stated, “Finley’s caters to men and making men feel and look good with a one-of-a-kind experience. We know that as men start to lose hair, or have thinning hair, their self-esteem can be impacted. With ManeGain, we are able to explore a new ground-breaking technology that can actually work to combat hair loss through an all-natural, non-invasive, chemical-free sessions.  We are excited to be one of the first to offer the ManeGain system to our customers at our Westlake location in the Austin, Texas area.”

Jeffrey Fry, ManeGain Marketing Chief added, “While we have been very successful in high end salons and spas, sometimes gentlemen want a “male-centric” establishment when dealing with such a touchy subject like hair loss. Finley’s brings the great old world charm of straight razor shaves with some ultra-modern services for men which makes this a perfect fit.  We are both interested in making people (men) feel more confident by looking good.” Mr. Fry went on to say, “Finley’s is a great choice because they understand offering people our HALO Therapy not only can reverse hair loss, but create an environment that can even prevent the onset of alopecia (balding) in men.  It is a one-of-a-kind experience!”
