- Harley Street, London

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 recent 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 our Consultant Trichologists
Stephen James – Consultant Trichologist, CiT, ART
With over 20 years in the hair industry, Stephen James is Internationally renowned as Consultant Trichologist and a foremost expert in hair and scalp health. Based in Saffron Walden, he is dedicated to helping people with hair loss, thinning, and scalp conditions through science-led, compassionate care.
Originally an award-winning stylist and colourist, Stephen turned to Trichology when he could no longer answer his clients’ concerns about thinning hair. Studying the science of hair and scalp health, he discovered a passion for understanding both how hair thrives and why it fails—knowledge that became the foundation of Stephen James Trichology.
His approach goes beyond surface-level observations, using genetics and blood testing to uncover nutritional deficiencies, hormonal imbalances, and predispositions hidden in DNA. This allows him to create highly personalised treatment plans that deliver long-term results and empower clients with real insight into their health.
An active member of the Association of Registered Trichologists, Stephen has lectured globally, consulted for TrichoCare Education, and runs clinics in Harley Street and Oxford. He works closely with wig specialists to support chemotherapy patients, collaborates with top restoration clinics on advanced treatments including transplants, PRP, and Mesotherapy, and partners with pharmaceutical research companies to offer client-specific solutions.
Combining scientific expertise with genuine compassion, Stephen James is committed to restoring not just hair, but confidence.
