Before
After Anna had used chemical relaxers regularly for years, combined with tight styling. Over time, she noticed her edges thinning and her overall hairline creeping back. She came to The Hair Centre when the loss became noticeable enough to affect how she felt about her appearance.
Gary Heron assessed the damage and confirmed a combination of chemical trauma and Traction Alopecia. He developed a treatment plan focused on reducing scalp inflammation, stimulating remaining follicles, and rebuilding hairline density — alongside guidance on transitioning to safer hair practices.
After seven months, Anna's hairline had recovered substantially. Her edges, which had been almost invisible, returned with visibly improved density. She continues to maintain her hair in a way that supports long-term scalp health.
"Gary explained the impact relaxers and tight styles were having on my hair. The treatment worked faster than I expected. I have my edges back."
