Rooted in Excellence

Health, blood flow, signals to grow and proceed to the next stage, texture, manageability. If the follicle is clogged it cannot respond to stimulus, if the root is malnourished it will deactivate. When the root is thriving hair is thick, shiny and unbreakable.

Everything Starts at the Root

To accelerate hair growth the follicle needs blood supply for the roots to transmit the proper growth factors. If the root doesn’t have the bare necessities it will send the follicle into regression. With the bare essentials the root can return the follicle to the anagen phase.

Hair texture though largely genetic begins at the root. The shape of Straight, wavy, curly, coily all comes from the root and all hair textures can be smoothed or refined. Silky, cohesive and responsive hair comes from healthy roots.

Hair tangles at the root as well. When the root is stressed hair is more prone to inconsistencies in it own texture experienced as knots, kinks, tangles and chronic dehydration. A well managed hair follicle prompts the hair strand to respond accordingly.

  • The hairline is sensitive but the right stimulus can regenerate hair from damage. This formula is intended to stimulate the temporal follicles from stagnation.

  • Stubborn roots need a push to grow beyond the surface. Get the full edges strong enough to frame that beautiful face

  • The root needs specific conditions to function optimally, either to grow or recover from hair loss. This formula contains the key compounds needed to awaken the root and restore hair.

  • It all begins at the root. Hair grows from the root and cells layer to become apart of the hair shaft. This formula prepares the root for extended growth.

  • The scalp needs love too. A health environment relays to the root its safe to grow. This formula combines essential extracts to keep the scalp clear so the root and follicle can function

  • Everything in this formula is intended to extended the anagen phase and deliver nutrients to accelerate growth. The root sends the growth factors and this combination is like steroids for the hair

Prevention, Management and Restoration

Efforts to prevent thinning or baldness are best aimed at addressing the frontal, mid-scalp and crown of the head as these are the areas most often affected. Topical solutions are most beneficial for hair loss prevention and early hair loss management (thinning, shedding, delayed growth) in the frontal and vertex region of the scalp. As hair loss progresses solutions transition from management to restoration.

There are surgical hair restoration procedures and most involve hair follicles harvest and transplant, expensive travel and professional care, extensive research and recovery periods. Root Bare formulas are the only natural hair restoration solution backed by research results available at home. All our formulas include derivative ingredients used to treat severe hair loss in clinical settings. Root Bare doses are intended for hair follicle improvement that target early and progressive stages of hair loss.

Root Bare formulas are designed for scalp renewal, follicle rejuvenation hair loss prevention, management and root restoration.

Hair follicles immediately adjacent to the face form short, wispy baby hairs that eventually transition into mature strands. New hair growth appears as fine vellus hairs. The amount of individual hairs emerging from the scalp produces hairline density, thickness refers to the number of mature hairs around the perimeter producing an appearance of fullness.

The hairline is the region of hair that connects the greater portion of the scalp to the forehead and perimeters of the face. The hairline has its own specific growth patterns and dimensions that also vary from person to person and throughout an individuals lifetime.

The Growth of the Hairline

Hair around the hairline is often in a state of perpetual ‘infancy’ making them especially receptive to growth and susceptible to damage. Maintaining the growth cycle with nutrients to multiple hair follicles while strengthening the strands as they mature is priority for a healthy hairline.

Scalp is divided into 5 main regions: temples, frontal, mid-scalp and occiput.

The frontal scalp region is the entire face-framing perimeter of the hairline. The mid-frontal region is the central point of the hairline or the tip of “widow’s peak”. The frontotemporal region runs along both sides forming corners of the scalp.

The temples border the side of your face to the trigs region of your ear.

Mid-scalp separates the frontal and the crown of the scalp. Its the scalp region located directly in front of your ear and directly behind your ear spanning the top of your head.

*this region is only affected by hair loss when androgenetic alopecia has progressed to final stages before complete baldness.

The crown of the head, also known as the vertex, is the circular area encompassing the top of the head to the back. The crown region is a primary location for androgenetic alopecia and the motivator of the infamous comb-over or man-piece. Topical solutions such as minoxidil and Root Bare are intended to be applied to this area.

Occiput, meaning back of head, is the largest region of the scalp located at the lower back wrapping around either side to share a border with the temples. The hair follicles within the occiput region are typically resilient and rarely affected by alopecia or other forms of hair loss which is why these follicles are selected for invasive hair transplant procedures.

*individuals experiencing “M” shaped hair loss around the perimeter are likely affected by androgenetic alopecia. The tip of the “M” located at the mid frontal region and the inner peaks of the “M” refer to the regressing sides of the fronto-temporal. Androgenetic Alopecia rarely effects the temples leaving most of the sides and sideburns relatively preserved

*individuals experiencing more linear hair loss around the perimeter are likely affected by traction alopecia. The hairline regresses more broadly with hair loss taken on a ‘patchy’ array from progressive follicle injury that can span the entire frontal region.

Root Causes of Hair Loss

Non scarring Alopecia is androgenetic or “pattern” hair loss and most common. Pattern baldness develops due disruptions in the hair cycle, specifically from androgen activity on the hair follicle that cause the follicle to miniaturize resulting in hair loss. The condition is typically associated with males but woman can also be affected. Male pattern regression is at the bitemporal region forming the characteristic M-pattern at the hairline. Female androgenetic alopecia is characterized by more diffused hair thinning with the hairline relatively preserved.

Unwanted hair loss affects both sexes and all genetic backgrounds. Alopecia, the most widespread hair loss condition, is classified into two subtypes: scarring and non scarring.

Scarring alopecia is a more severe hair loss condition usually occurring from lupus or bacterial inflammation that affects the follicle. Scarred alopecia patterns expose shiny bare skin that are signs of permanent hair inactivity in that area.

Traction alopecia is a manipulation based condition resulting from excessive force, tension, or friction caused by tight ponytails, braids, scarves, hats or wigs. Traction alopecia causes hair breakage and hairline regression commonly affecting women.

Stress can cause acute or chronic telogen effluvium when the roots are prematurely forced into the telogen and the hair suddenly sheds.
