During the consultation, your trichologist will look at any health problems you may have, any family history, medications you may be on, diet and lifestyle.
It is advisable that you do not wash your hair on the morning of your consultation so that the trichologist can see the hair and scalp in its natural condition. If you have had any blood tests take along a copy of your results, a list of any medications you are on and a list of products you are currently using.
The more information provided aids in a more accurate diagnosis from the trichologist.
After the consultation, if the trichologist consultant deems it necessary to have any further tests they will recommend which tests you need.
The trichologist will then recommend what needs to happen next. This may range from a dietary approach to the use of pharmaceuticals.
Other methods may be advised from Mesotherapy, Platelet rich Plasma therapy to hair transplantation (only if required).
The trichologist will also recommend a home care regime.
Introducing Stephen James CiT, ART
Stephen James – Consultant Trichologist, Cit, ART
With over 20 years of experience in the hair industry, Stephen James is a leading Consultant Trichologist and one of the UK’s foremost experts in hair and scalp health. Based in the beautiful market town of Saffron Walden in the East of England. Stephen is passionate about providing comprehensive care to those suffering from hair loss, thinning hair, and scalp conditions.
Stephen’s journey into Trichology began when he found himself unable to help his clients with thinning hair and scalp issues despite his extensive experience as a highly qualified stylist and award-winning colourist. Determined to find a solution, he delved into the science and medicine of hair and scalp health, studying Trichology to learn the physiology of hair loss (how our hair grows and thrives) as well as the pathophysiology (how hair growth can go wrong) and integrating this knowledge into his work. This sparked a passion for healing through true care and compassion, ultimately leading to the founding of Stephen James Trichology.
As Stephen has gone deeper into the rapidly growing and evolving world of hair loss, he believes that long lasting results come from treating the root of the problem, not just the symptom, which has led to him placing great emphasis on the use of genetics and blood testing in his practise. Allowing him to go beyond surface level observations this gives him real insight into an individual’s own physiology. This includes identifying where you are most likely to have nutritional deficiencies or hormonal imbalances all from the genetic predispositions hidden in your own DNA which can allow us to create not just an accurate picture of your longer-term health but to design a bespoke treatment regimen just for you.
The empowerment this can give to a client through targeted and effective action, often discovering issues that client’s may not have been aware of, demonstrates the commitment to delivering comprehensive solutions to individuals as unique as the treatment provided.
As a Consultant Trichologist Stephen is an active member of the Association of Registered Trichologists. With his wealth of knowledge, he in the past provided consultancy services to TrichoCare Education and educated students globally on the science of Trichology. Stephen also operates a clinic on the world-renowned Harley Street and offers consultations in Oxford, where he collaborates with leading wig manufacturers, assisting chemotherapy patients and those experiencing medical hair loss.
In addition to his consultancy work, Stephen partners with one of the world’s top hair restoration clinics, offering advanced treatments such as hair transplants, Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy, and Mesotherapy. Through his deep connections with cutting-edge pharmaceutical research companies, Stephen can provide personalised, client-specific treatments for hair loss.
Stephen’s approach to Trichology is centred around comprehensive care, combining scientific knowledge with genuine compassion to deliver the best outcomes for his clients. Whether you’re facing hair thinning, scalp issues, or medical hair loss, Stephen James is committed to helping you restore not only your hair but your confidence.
