What Your Hair Can Tell You About Your Health: The Power of Epigenetic Hair Scans
Your hair holds more than just style and shine — it carries powerful information about your health and wellness. Through epigenetic hair scans, we can access insights into your body’s nutritional needs, stress response, and even the way your environment is impacting your skin and overall well-being.
What Is an Epigenetic Hair Scan?
An epigenetic hair scan is a non-invasive test that uses a small sample of your hair follicle to analyze how your genes are being expressed. Unlike genetic testing, which looks at your DNA blueprint, epigenetics tells us how lifestyle factors — like diet, stress, toxins, and environment — are influencing your body right now. These are so important for overall health. Its a deeper insight to how your working.
Think of it as a snapshot of how your body is functioning in real time.
What Can It Reveal?
Your hair scan can uncover valuable information, including:
Nutrient Deficiencies: Which vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and antioxidants your body may need more of.
Environmental Stressors: How pollutants, toxins, or chemicals might be affecting your skin and overall health.
Gut Health Insights: Imbalances that may be showing up in your skin (like acne, eczema, or dryness). Gut health is a huge tell all for overall health.
Skin + Hair Support: Clues about why your skin may not be responding to treatments as expected or why your hair feels brittle/isnt growing.

As an esthetician, I believe in supporting your skin from the inside out.
