iRestore Hair Growth System One Month Update

July 11, 2018 · 5 Comments

Here at Style Chicks, we’ve been running an in-house trial of the iRestore Hair Growth System with three of our own team. Learn more about the iRestore Hair Growth System here and read our one-month reports with pictures below.

LEE

The iRestore Hair Growth System has easily incorporated into my beauty routine. I use it regularly while watching TV.

The shampoo is very nice to use, taming my wiry locks without residue that weighs hair down. Even apart from its anti-DHT properties, I would buy this shampoo.

The supplements are easy to take but it is too soon to know if they are contributing to regrowth.

That’s also true of the hair serum but I can report that it doesn’t weigh down hair in any way like some products I’ve tried that have made my hair look thinner and separated. It also does not leave hair greasy, and there is no unpleasant odor or feel to the serum.

COURTNEY

Using the device is pretty easy – I keep it on my desk and use it when I’m answering emails in the morning. The time goes fast since I’m focused on something else. Actually, I really like that it automatically turns off when the session is done because otherwise, I would lose track of time!

I take the supplement after dinner, and while it is too soon to see any effects, I do feel like this is a quality formula and it isn’t hard to swallow, which is rare among supplements containing Biotin.

I really love the shampoo. It’s gentle but really gets my hair clean. More importantly, it really gets my scalp clean. So in addition to removing DHT, I’ve noticed more movement in my hair and it is silkier since using this shampoo. There is a bit more loft in my hair, which is great. Plus, it is so shiny!

I think my favorite part of the iRestore Hair Growth System is the serum. Massaging it into my scalp has turned into a bit of a decadent ritual. Not only does it feel great while I’m doing it, but it is great knowing that I’m doing something to prevent hair loss and fortify existing hair!

I’ve had a bit more hair shedding than normal this month, but I don’t think it’s a side-effect of the iRestore Hair Growth System since it has only been a month.

LYN

While I **THINK** or at least hope my hair loss is not very detectable to others after I wash and style my hair, it does reduce my hairstyle choices.

Examining my hair, I’ve several shorter growth sections. These aren’t deliberate styled layers, they are shortened growth comprised of thinner, drier texture hairs.

I am thankful to find the iRestore Hair Growth System now because if even half these shorter sections stopped producing hair, I believe my hair loss would be very obvious.

I’m also glad to realize the DHT correlation to hair loss, and how removing DHT prevents future loss, and the laser can improve volume and trigger growth in dormant hair follicles.

HELMET USE: So far compliance has been easy. If I know I’ll be out of town or busy during the week, I make a point to reschedule my iRestore use so that I don’t miss the three times a week use requirement.
SUPPLEMENT: The hair loss supplement is easy to swallow, and as a bonus, my short, stubby, below the quick nails are starting to grow from the Biotin. It is really too early to expect to see much with my hair though.
SHAMPOO: I was concerned about washing my hair daily with the iRestore shampoo would strip my hair color, but so far, so good. I still waited 2-3 days post-color and skip washing so the color sets, so having the supplements and serum for back up is helpful. I formerly used a shampoo for dry, colored hair and I was afraid daily shampooing would parch my already dry hair, but even if I don’t condition, my hair stays soft and shiny. My hair felt so soft after use I thought there must be silicones in the shampoo, but I don’t see anything of the sort on the ingredient list.

Here are my one-month updates pictures compared to last month:

So there you have it. One month in, and so far, no glitches!

Tackle Thinning Hair with iRestore Hair Growth System

May 25, 2018 · Leave a Comment

The internet is full of remedies for growing thicker, fuller and longer hair. But there’s little reliable data on what can be done for hair thinning, which happens to 40% of women.

Hair thinning may only be noticeable to you and your stylist because a clever part or hairstyle can conceal thinner or problematic hair sections. But it’s there. Even before you can visibly detect thinner areas of hair on your head, you may see an atypical amount of hair loss on your hairbrush or hair fall while washing hair. And once you notice it on yourself, you notice it on others: sparse sections in the hairline or temples, and widening partlines. It occurs for a variety of reasons including hormones, age, heredity, diet, post-partum stress, taking medications and chronic illness.

Internet hair growth and thickening lore are less helpful for hair loss and it is easy to get misdirected onto unhelpful and even harmful ideas. Home remedies for reducing hair fall and encouraging thicker, fuller hair include rubbing the scalp with coconut, castor, Vitamin E or amla oil. Some experience better hair growth with Pre-Natal vitamins. While these remedies can help, they only address select hair growth contributing factors, they are not a catch-all solution nor do they address hair loss at the source.

Beautiful hair is not to be left to chance. The phrase “good hair day” exists for a reason: our sense of how we look is often tied to the appearance of our tresses. And if something can optimize our hair, we are so on board. So here at StyleChicks, we’re excited to try the iRestore Hair Growth System, an at-home use, FDA-cleared, clinically proven to way to grow hair for both men **AND** women.

ABOUT THE iRESTORE HAIR GROWTH SYSTEM

The iRestore is an FDA-Cleared device that is a dome-shaped helmet that is worn for 25 minutes, every other day, for a pain-free laser treatment. On the inside of the helmet are twenty-one Class 3R lasers and thirty LED diodes that produce a red light in a specific nanometer range. This range has been clinically demonstrated to stimulate hair follicles, thereby enhancing regrowth.

Why exactly does this work?

When a hair follicle experiences poor blood flow or the build-up of a hormone by-product called Dihydrotestosterone (DHT), the hair follicle slowly shrinks until it no longer produces hair.

How do you know your follicles are suffering from poor blood flow or DHT build-up, or both? You can detect a struggling follicle by looking for the shorter, thinner hairs on your head. The existing hair gets thinner and shorter until it sheds and another hair does not grow back in its’ place. When many follicles do this, hair becomes sparse in areas, exposing more scalp.

DHT

DHT sneaks up on you. Many of us do not wash our hair daily so as not to over-dry the hair length. Or we may wash less to try to retain a style like a blow-out or retain our hair color or highlights. But the longer one goes not washing their scalp, the more damage DHT can do to a hair follicle, effectively smothering it to death. Dead follicles no longer receive a regular blood supply.

To make matters worse, home remedies such as rubbing the head with heavy oils such as coconut oil can actually trap DHT under a thin oil residue, even after the coconut oil is shampooed squeaky-clean out of the hair length. DHT can be addressed in part by shampoos, topical serums, and vitamin supplements. But topicals alone cannot fix follicles that no longer receive the blood supply needed to grow new hair.

INCREASED BLOOD FLOW REVIVES FOLLICLES

How does laser light break the pattern of hair loss due to non-producing follicles? A dormant follicle can get a “kick-start” from the laser because it increases blood flow to follicles, which brings the right nutrients and support to bring it back to life, once again producing hair. Second, the laser can extend the growth phase of hair to restore a healthy hair production cycle once again. As a side bonus, currently producing follicles and the scalp also benefit from increased nutrients and blood flow.

OVERVIEW

Each kit contains the iRestore ID-500 Laser Dome (the helmet), a power adapter, a remote control, and a user manual.

Additional iRestore products include a Hair Growth Serum, Shampoo, and a 3-in-1 Supplement. These are geared towards the DHT side of hair loss and providing internal and topical nutrients that keep follicles making healthy hair.

iRestore Shampoo, 3-in-1 Supplement, and Hair Growth Serum

There is also a portable power unit available so you can be mobile while using the helmet and not be tethered to a plug.

PUTTING IRESTORE TO THE TEST

While the clinical data is impressive, the real proof is in the pudding, or in this case, in an in-house trial by three ladies from the Style Chicks team. Three of our own will be using the iRestore and be reporting back each month their results over the course of our own study. So join us each month to see how iRestore works on real people.

The ladies from the Style Chicks team will be Lee, Lyn, and Courtney. Here are their initial impressions:

LEE

The iRestore unit is lightweight and has a generous length cord, so most people should be able to use it in a variety of settings at their desk, at the computer, sitting in bed with a laptop or tablet, or watching TV.

The helmet is comfortable and fits securely on the head.

The unit runs silently for 25 minutes followed by a soft “beep” to signal the treatment is over. You will probably find you need that signal since it’s easy to forget the helmet is on your head.

It’s practical to combine the iRestore treatment with other activities such as answering email, paying bills, reading, or, my personal favorite, watching TV. To establish a pattern of regular use, I use my iRestore when I watch the HGTV series “Fixer Upper”, which seems apropos.

The science is there to back the product claims so, if it works for me, it’s so easy to use there’s absolutely no reason to prevent keeping up with the iRestore program.

Lee before pictures, May 2018

LYN

I’m terrible at consistent device use, so establishing a pattern was key. I am online every day, so keep the iRestore on my desk by my laptop so I remember to use the helmet every other day. It fits on my head without slipping or feeling too heavy.

LAZY PERSON CONFESSION: It’s easier to adhere to regular use with this hair growth device and I use it more consistently over a laser comb, band or daily topicals because I don’t have to do anything once I put it on, like moving the comb or band into place and holding it in place on the head. Both my hands are free and it doesn’t make an annoying noise. I find this makes it much easier to use regularly even if I am busy all day. But at some point, I am on my computer and can use it while I work.

BATTERY PACK
With the optional power battery pack unit, I can get up and walk around during treatment and attend to various tasks. The battery pack unit clips onto a belt clip and allows plenty of flexibility of use. However, with the main power unit that comes with the device, if something disrupts your session and you need to take the iRestore dome helmet off, it senses it is not on the head and pauses automatically. It can also be paused mid-session on the head by pressing the start button. I find this useful in keeping consistent use, knowing if a disruption happens I will still get the full treatment.

VITAMINS
I previously considered my hair vitamin needs covered, I’ve been taking hair vitamins for some time. I’ve had improved hair and nail growth from Biotin, so I was curious what would be the difference between your basic hair vitamin and the iRestore 3-in-1 Hair Growth Formula.

The iRestore supplement includes, amongst other hair friendly vitamins and minerals, a key DHT fighter: Saw Palmetto. While it has been used for centuries, Saw Palmetto is rarely seen in hair growth vitamins, but it should be. Saw Palmetto inhibits 5-reductase, an enzyme that converts testosterone into DHT. Saw Palmetto also inhibits the DHT receptors in the follicles, limiting the damage that DHT can do. I prefer not to wash my hair daily when I get my hair freshly colored. If you don’t wash your hair daily for whatever reason to remove DHT, Saw Palmetto is a must have for fighting DHT related hair loss over time. I don’t expect result right away, but I am happy to find this unique hair vitamin combination.

Lyn before, May 2018

COURTNEY

The iRestore is easy enough to use, the 25 minutes goes by quickly. It’s comfortable and the lights stay focused on the scalp without dispersing, so no goggles are necessary. The light is powerful but precise.

SERUM

It is too early to tell if the serum works, but the smell is pleasant and it doesn’t leave a greasy or dirty look on the hair or scalp.

SHAMPOO
I was pleasantly surprised by the iRestore shampoo. Typically shampoo geared toward hair regrowth or scalp health tends to smell medicinal and makes my hair dry, this was just a clean, gentle, regular scent that was pleasant and lathered well. It did not leave a residual on my hair and it made my hair feel thick and strong. I followed up with my own moisturizing daily conditioner. I tend to dislike using a shampoo from a set because it rarely meets my haircare needs, but this is a great go-to shampoo that leaves my hair soft.

HairMax Laserband 82: Hair Loss Treatment for Women

July 10, 2017 · Leave a Comment

August is National Hair Loss Awareness Month. Here at Style Chicks, we have advocated for women who experience hair loss and hair thinning since we started this site in 2007.

Hair loss can be upsetting for anyone, but especially devasting for women. And female hair loss is far more common than we might think, it occurs even in younger women. Hair loss can happens because of genetics, stress, medications, diet, surgery, hormonal changes, amongst other reasons. Even a temporary health situation causing hair loss is very upsetting. Don’t just try to conceal the loss: you can take action! But options for women have been limited. Some effective drugs treatments are not approved for women, and many topical treatments are considered less effective on female hair loss. Topical treatments are often sticky and can make hair thinning look even worse. We were so excited when about the HairMax LaserBand 82 Device, FDA cleared for men AND women and clinically proven effective to stop hair loss and regrow hair.

The HairMax LaserBand 82 delivers therapeutic light energy directly to your hair follicles through 82 medical-grade lasers to treat hair loss and promote hair growth.

HairMax LaserBand 82

WHY HAIRMAX LASERBAND 82 IS A GAME CHANGER FOR WOMEN WITH MILD TO MODERATE HAIR LOSS

HairMax LaserBand 82 is an FDA cleared laser light hair growth device suitable for men and women in early to modern stages of hair thinning and loss. It’s used in the privacy of your own home a few minutes a day, three times a week. It’s safe and effective. There are no harmful side effects, no odd-smelling topical treatments with sticky or oily residue that makes thin hair look worse. No expensive daily drug prescriptions. It’s simple to use, even while reading or watching TV. Most importantly, it’s proven to work in SEVEN clinical studies.

CLINICAL PROOF: HOW DO WE KNOW IT WORKS?

HairMax LaserBand 82 is Recommended by doctors and hair restoration experts because it has proven over 90% success rate. What does that mean exactly? Many hair loss products focus primarily on stopping hair loss, but how do you know if those products are actually working? HairMax LaserBand 82 doesn’t just stop hair loss, it stimulates the follicles to regrow lusher, denser, fuller, and healthier.

Studies counted the individual hairs per square inch to look for improvement. The results? A documented average increase in hair count of 129 additional new hairs per square inch after six months. That’s THOUSANDS of new hairs over the entire head resulting in denser, fuller hair. The results are even slightly better for women, at 132 hairs per square inch at 26 weeks.

Hairmax Best Candidates for Hair Regrowth include women with mild to moderate hair loss on the top and front of the hairline based on the Ludwig-Savin Classification (taken from HairMax user guide)

A CLOSER LOOK AT THE HAIRMAX LASERBAND 82

DESIGN

The Device is a curved band design that fits comfortably on the head, like a headband. When I put it on it is lightweight and comfortable, and there are no cords or attachments.

82 DIODES

It has 82 Laser diodes, not LED lights. These medical grade diodes provide a consistent even light that penetrates down to the scalp.

HAIR PARTING TEETH

An important feature is the hair parting teeth that come in various sizes. I was concerned the laser would not be able to reach my scalp through my hair, but with the aid of the hair parting teeth, the focused laser diode light penetrates to the hair follicles and provides consistent, even light to the entire scalp to treat my follicles.

Two rows of parting teeth assist the diodes in delivering consistent, even light that penetrates down to the scalp

PRETTY IN A CUP: RejuvaBlend K-Cups with Biotin For Strong Hair & Nails

April 8, 2017 · Leave a Comment

Women under stress often notice their hair and nails often become lackluster and brittle. Biotin remedies this problem, kicking hair & nail growth into high gear and even skin glows again. But not just any Biotin pill gets results: the key to lush hair, eyelash, eyebrow, and nail growth is finding a high-absorption, bioavailable form of Biotin and then to take it daily. RejuvaBlend developed a way to sneak a daily dose of a high-absorption Biotin into…wait for it…a rich, smooth coffee. RejuvaBlend coffee is like pretty in a K-Cup.

Starting my morning with Rejuvablend Coffee with Biotin

Starting my morning with Rejuvablend Nature Cups K-Cup Coffee with bioavailable Biotin

The only thing better than a quick beauty fix? A quick beauty fix included in your coffee. Like a magic beauty potion, RejuvaBlend coffee remedies a big beauty complaint of many busy women: stress taking a toll on their appearance. Burning the proverbial candle at both ends often leads to the depletion of the body’s reserves, leading to lackluster hair and nail growth.

WHAT IS BIOTIN?

Biotin is a water-soluble B Vitamin (B7) which is associated with glowing skin, thicker, fuller, and longer hair and the growth of longer and stronger nails. Biotin also supports the health of the nerves, digestive tract, metabolism, and cells. Because it is water soluble, it should be taken daily.

WHAT DOES BIOTIN DO FOR HAIR GROWTH?

According to Dr. Richard K. Scher, Clinical Professor of Dermatology at Weill Cornell Medical College has spoken extensively about Biotin. Hair that is brittle, damaged, not growing or even experiencing hair loss can have many causes, and Biotin seems to have the ability to halt various types hair loss and encourage regrowth in most women, regardless of the reason behind the loss. Whether hair loss is due to postpartum, stress or poor diet, a bioavailable Biotin can help. Want to regrow overly thinned out eyebrows? Biotin can help with that too.

How Biotin works is unclear. Dr. Scher believes Biotin supports the building of the keratin structure of hair and nails. I thought that sounded promising since my hair looks so much better after a Keratin conditioning treatment.

WHO CAN USE MORE BIOTIN?

Almost everyone. Unlike some B-Vitamins, Biotin is considered safe even in larger doses. But a multi-vitamin and even many B-Complex supplements often do not contain even the minimum daily requirement of Biotin, much less the amount that enhances hair and nail growth.

HOW MUCH BIOTIN IS NECESSARY FOR HAIR GROWTH?

The daily recommended dosage of Biotin required to grow hair is at least 2.5 mg (or 2,500 mcg). Rejuvablend contains 2928mcg.

I was surprised to see that my highly reputable brand and rather expensive daily multi-vitamin pill only contains 33% of the daily requirement of Biotin! After some research, I see my daily multivitamin is not the only one that does not supply as much Biotin as might benefit me. Even a well-known hair-growth vitamin contains only about 60% of the daily recommended dose of Biotin.

ABOUT BIOTIN DEFICIENCY

Few people have a severe Biotin deficiency, but it can occur if you take antioxidant supplements such as Lipoic acid (AKA Alpha Lipoic Acid). If you consume lots of antioxidants in the form of white tea, green tea or as a supplement, these can all increase your need for biotin. Lipoic Acid, an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory supplement that is an anti-aging insider beauty secret, made famous by Yale celebrity dermatologist Dr. Nicholas Perricone within his beauty/health and anti-aging diet. Since Alpha Lipoic Acid is such as wonderful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory supplement, it makes sense to supplement with more Biotin than to cut back on beauty supplements like ALA.

Certain medications and medical conditions can impair or block the absorption of Biotin within your system. If you have such medical problems, a bioavailable Biotin such as found in Rejuvablend can be an excellent daily Biotin source.

WHY BIOTIN IN YOUR COFFEE?

While reputable brand Biotin vitamins are available, there are several advantages to getting Biotin from RejuvaBlend coffee:

EASY AND CONSISTENT: You likely drink coffee every day, so it not only makes it easier to get your Biotin, you will likely not miss a daily dose of Biotin. Consistency is key with Biotin: if you’re serious about growing your hair out, don’t skip doses.
BETTER ABSORPTION: As a B Vitamin, Biotin has better absorption as a liquid that a pill or capsule. Liquid consumption of B Vitamins has twice the absorption rate of pill or capsule form vitamins. Rejuvablend has a proprietary delivery system that maximizes the absorption of Biotin into the body, making the most out of this beauty-making B.
EASY TO SWALLOW: Many Biotin vitamin pills or hair growth vitamins are big, chalky and hard to swallow.
COST: Rejuvablend K-Cups are a comparable price or less expensive than standard K-Cups but with the bonus of a high-grade, proven effective, bioavailable Biotin.
TASTE: Rejuvablend is Tasty! Made with 100% Arabica coffee. It is a medium-dark roast that is not bitter and has a caramel note.

Rejuvablend K-Cups

HOW MUCH BIOTIN IS TOO MUCH BIOTIN?

While it’s hard to have too much Biotin, it is possible. The recommended usage is one to two cups of RejuvaBlend coffee which is enough Biotin to amp up both hair and nail growth, more than that is not necessary.

Drink one to two cups of RejuvaBlend Coffee a day for optimal Biotin levels

ABOUT REJUVABLEND K-CUPS

RejuvaBlend Nature Cups K-Cups are 100% recyclable and work with any Keurig Brewer machine, old or new. They come 16 K-Cups to a box.

HOW DOES REJUVABLEND COFFEE TASTE?

I like it! A smooth, dark, rich taste with no afterbite. There is a note of caramel but it is not too sweet.

RejuvaBlend coffee with Biotin has a rich, smooth taste with a hint of caramel

CONCLUSION

I found RejuvaBlend coffee to be tasty, smooth and delicious without an aftertaste; there is nothing medicinal tasting about this coffee! Hair, skin, and nails all respond well to Biotin, especially when taken with a balanced meal containing other B Vitamin rich foods like eggs, whole grain, cheese, and soy. Having my Biotin in my morning coffee with breakfast ensures that I get this water-soluble vitamin daily. Longer hair, fuller eyebrows, batworthy lashes, and healthy nails, here I come!

Beauty Gadgets: Lift Care Lift Wand Pro

June 27, 2016 · Leave a Comment

Lift Care Lift Wand Pro

I’ve been on a beauty gadget binge lately. I was impressed by the other gadgets I have tried from Lift Care, so I am happy to have tried their flagship product, the Lift Wand Pro.

The Lift Wand Pro is a very powerful gadget. It is a high-frequency tool to clarify and refine the skin. After having used it a few times, I am thrilled with the results.

This tool treats a broad range of beauty woes, ranging from hair loss to acne to the signs of aging. The underlying mechanism of high-frequency skincare is a)bringing circulation to the skin, and b)killing bacteria. In addition to the seven high-frequency electrode attachments, the kit contains a 540-needle derma roller. I am a huge fan of derma rollers to increase collagen production. The one that comes with this kit is well made and precise. I use it twice a week, and I haven’t had any issues with pinpricks that led to bleeding. It gives my skin a lovely glow and smoothes out my skin.

There are seven electrode attachments to use with the device. Each has a gas inside it (I believe Argon) which emits a glow when the electric current reacts with it.

I found the hair comb electrode fascinating. It causes circulation to increase on your scalp (and therefore in your hair follicles) much the same way a peppermint shampoo would. There is also a tingle that goes along with this increase in circulation, also like peppermint shampoo has when it brings circulation to the scalp.

Lift Care Lift Wand Pro Comb

I had a recent weight loss, so I was eager to try out the body roller electrode to prevent sagging skin. This is more of a preventative step, but I was surprised (and thrilled) by how much tightening I have had on my upper arms. If you aren’t thrilled with how your arms look in short sleeves, this attachment makes the whole kit worth it!

Lift Care Lift Wand Pro Body Roller

The undereye (Spoon) attachment produces a peppy, wide awake look by tightening the undereye and bringing fluid-draining circulation to the area, great for late nights, early mornings, and allergy season!

The neck electrode is a powerful anti-aging tool and probably one of the most recognizable electrodes if you have gotten high-frequency facials in a spa. It improves circulation to the thin skin on the throat and tightens jowls. It makes a noticeable difference.

Lift Care Lift Wand Pro Neck Attachment

Next to the neck electrode, the most recognizable attachment would be the Face Electrode, commonly called a Mushroom Attachment in spas. By running this attachment over the face, skin is smoothed and left with a dewy, rosy glow to it.

Lift Care Lift Wand Pro Facial Electrode

The most impressive result for me came from the Acne Electrodes. One is for use behind the ears for sagging in the area and for acne, and the other is just for acne is areas like the nose. They are more powerful wands than the rest, with more concentrated energy than the rest of the electrodes. They work by killing bacteria and creates an environment that is unfavorable to acne. I had a few blemishes last week, two that were red and visible, a whitehead, and one that had not yet shown up on my skin, but I could feel forming under my skin. I followed the directions and lightly tapped the Acne Electrode on each of the blemishes a few times. They were each immediately tighter and drier. Over the next 24 hours, the two red, visible blemishes were slightly lighter in color and reduced by about 75%. They were flat by the next day, and one of them returned to normal flesh tone within 72 hours. The whitehead dried out and was gone in 48 hours. The blemish that hadn’t shown up on my skin came to the surface and dried up in less than 72 hours. I am thrilled with the results of these attachments! Results come faster than if I went to the dermatologist to get a blemish injected, and less expensive in the long run if your insurance doesn’t cover acne.

There are several warnings in the instructions of those who shouldn’t use the Lift Wand Pro due to medical conditions, so take a look at that before you use it. The gadget comes with a 1-year warranty, which is great!

The whole kit comes in a sturdy aluminum briefcase style box, which is fantastic for storage of these delicate items. I wish more beauty gadgets came with good storage like this, and it definitely adds value to a great kit.
