Friday 5: What Your Hair Says About Your Health – 5 Early Warning Signs
Your hair isn’t just about looks — it’s a messenger for your internal health. In this week’s Friday 5, I’m sharing five important clues your hair might be sending you. From nutrients running low, to stress overload, hormone shifts, immune misfires, and even detox congestion, these signs often appear in your hair before you notice them anywhere else.
We’ll talk about why your hair might not grow past a certain length, how to tell the difference between shedding and breakage, and why spotting changes early is key to preventing deeper imbalances.
If you’ve ever wondered what your thinning, brittle, or slow-to-grow strands are really saying, this episode will help you connect the dots.
✨ Plus, don’t miss my free hair-regrowth workshop on Tuesday, 30th September at 8pm UK time — perfect if you’re navigating alopecia or supporting a loved one. I’ll be sharing my inside-out method to calm immune chaos, rebuild nutrient reserves, and restart the hair cycle, gently and systematically. You can sign up here.
