#1 Professional Styling Tip for Women with Thinning Hair…

You’re not alone when it comes to hating hair loss and how self conscious it makes you feel, we’re with you all the way on that one! Many women with hair loss have tried or considered hair pieces, drugs, transplants, laser treatments or herbal remedies only to discover that the discomfort, side effects, expense, pain, and negligible results just weren’t worth it. And the pain is still there, but as crazy as it is, we continue to have hope, don’t we!

So we wait and we hope for a cure (sooner rather than later would be nice). And we have reason to be hopeful with researchers promising discoveries in follicle cloning, stem cell research and genetic manipulation. So we continue to wait and hope that what works on mice today will, one day, work on humans. And we hope the solution will be mercifully pain free, drug free and ideally affordable. A solution to banish our secret embarrassment, to repair our damaged self esteem and to help us confidently and joyfully take on the world again!

That’s a lot of waiting and hoping, but until the day researchers perfect the science, there is something you can do to take charge of your situation and feel great about yourself again and it refers to the inspiring graphic. The tip is the result of the collective wisdom of many top stylists from Europe, the US and Canada. It’s not expensive and it’s not what you think.

For women it’s about feeling good about how we look at whatever age we are and according to style expert Jandi Girard, President of Inspire Style image consulting, “It is all about acceptance and working with what you have got, drawing the attention to your assets and minimizing or camouflaging the hot spots”. Of course we understand the struggle with aging, we do battle with it every day and we expect to until our last breath, it’s the “acceptance” part that’s difficult for us. The thing is that once we accept ourselves as we are and make the best of the “assets” we have, our confidence grows and the world changes around us. It’s the same idea as the fitness commercial on TV “when you live the good life everyone around you does too”.

Success coach and author of The Chicken Soup for the Soul book series, Jack Canfield, urges us to “give up the fight” to stop attracting negative energy and the snowball effect. We must embrace who we are and how we got here. The way we look is our badge of honour. It’s been said that “a confident average women with great personal style will outshine an insecure super model any day” and that should be your mission, to find your signature look and the self confidence it inspires.

Thinning hair is a delicate matter, and finding the right stylist is imperative to your looks and confidence. Many women spend years developing a trusting relationship with their stylists before they experience hair loss, but if your stylist does not regularly work with thinning hair then it may be time to move on to someone that understands the associated physical and emotional issues.

The number one reason that women stay with the wrong stylist is loyalty and they are afraid to cause insult by moving on. If you are not happy with your current look, life is too short and you owe it to yourself to get one that makes you happy. The right hair stylist will be knowledgeable in hair design will take inventory of your assets and exploit them to create the finest you.

So do your research, collect pictures of people in magazines with styles you like. Ask people on the street, where they get their hair done and the name of their stylist, and don’t worry, they’ll be flattered. Call top salons and make an appointment for an assessment from their top stylists. You should get consultations for free but if you have to pay for their time, consider it an investment in the new you. Whoever you choose, make sure he or she is a good fit for your personality and don’t be afraid to keep looking if it doesn’t work out.
