How To Reverse Brow & Lash Hairloss: The Medical Medium Way

7/11/2017

 
Picture
As much as we all wish there was a magic pill that helped everyone re-grow their brows & lashes, there's not.

Hair, Skin, & Nail supplements and topical serums can be helpful in an instance you have simply overplucked or the area needs a circulation boost. But, if you are one of the hundreds of thousands of women across the world experiencing true hairloss of your brows, lash, and even head hair, there are action oriented solutions that go beyond what science and research currently understands.

The information provided here comes from my hours upon hours of researching information shared by Anthony William, a gifted medical intuitive, who I normally would be skeptical of if it wasn't for my own first hand experience working with him.

When I was 19, I began experiencing chronic acne that I desperately sought every possible avenue to heal. One day I called Anthony up (it's nearly impossible now to consult with him, so I feel very blessed to have stumbled upon him when I did) and within a minute of being on the phone he said to me, "your skin condition is stemming from a bacterial infection in your lymphatic system and we need to get focus on getting your lymphatic system moving."

I didn't understand how this man knew what he did, but I knew that I was going to take a leap of faith and try the advice he gave me to heal. My life was changed for the better. To this day I implement his advice and protocols for well-being, with life changing results.

I couldn't be more excited to put together an article that I know will help so many of my clients who struggle with brow, lash, and general hair loss. We all deserve to feel beautiful in our bodies.

So, here it goes!

How To Reverse Hair loss : the Medical Medium Way

​To put this simply and to the point, hair loss related conditions are related to stress in the body. This doesn't mean mental-stress, where it's all in your mind and you need to take a yoga class.

The adrenals in the body support hundreds upon hundreds of different chemical processes, pumping out perfect concoctions of hormones to brush our teeth, take a shower, take that yoga class, and yup-- to grow hair.

When the adrenals become stressed, the hormone levels can go bonkers. You will often notice hairloss not during times of stress, but around 8-12 months later. When stress is chronic due to even further underlying conditions (which I am getting to...) there can be steady, chronic loss.

Your hair will be at its best when your adrenals are healthy. - Anthony William
Adrenaline from emotional events and life stressors can have a major impact on the health of your hair. When you experience a painful situation or serious hardship, adrenaline floods your system and not only impacts the health of your liver and skin, but can negatively affect your hair as well. If you experience the loss of a loved one, go through a divorce or breakup, or suffer a terrible betrayal, your hair may develop a straw-like texture and fall out. These symptoms can occur after the hardship takes place and may continue for a period of time unless you provide your body with the nourishment and support it needs. A protein-packed hair care product is not going to give your hair the restoration you hope for. One of the best actions you can take to restore your hair is to support your adrenals. Your hair will be at its best when your adrenals are healthy. - Anthony William
The information I am presenting here today is the most empowering & important information I have to share. With that being said, it is not a quick fix and depending on the damage, takes time to heal. An average time frame for restoring adrenal health is 3-24 months.

You can reverse hair loss by healing your adrenals!

Get your graze on, girl!

Eating something every 60-90 minutes is the key to restoring this precious organ system. It is important a couple times a day to implement "Adrenal Healing Snacks" which are a specific balance of:

+ GLUCOSE ( ex. Bananas)

+ POTTASIUM (ex. Dates)

+ SODIUM (ex. Celery)

This specific combination of foods allow the adrenals to not over or under function. When our reserves of any of these 3 elements get low, our adrenals start surging adrenaline through the body to keep us functioning. The idea is: let them rest, do some ground work for them, and they will heal.

My personal favorite is celery and dates together, or I simply drink some celery or cucumber juice before I have a fruit smoothie.

Medical experts incorrectly believe alopecia is an autoimmune disease where the body’s immune system attacks the hair follicles that generate hair growth. This misinformation puts the blame on the patient when the truth is, medical research and medical science don’t actually know what triggers alopecia. Eventually the truth that I’ve brought to light will be discovered— that alopecia is an adrenal issue.
Medical research and science is unaware that adrenaline is made up of a complicated group of hormones that have not yet been identified. If someone has alopecia, his or her adrenals are lacking one of the undocumented hormones that make up part of the 56 different blends of adrenaline that I detail in my book Medical Medium. Ashwagandha can be a beneficial supplement for helping to restore a trace of the missing hormone. I’ve worked with people who had alopecia, and once they addressed the issues connected to their adrenal health, their hair was able to grow back. -Anthony William

The thyroid world can be a confusing and messy one, which honestly requires an entire blog post of its own. So many clients that come to me for microblading have thyroid conditions which proliferated hair loss, and I can't wait to share more on this topic. In the mean time I recommend checking out the book "Medical Medium: Secrets Behind Mystery Illness & How To Finally Heal", to discover how thyroid conditions can be successfully reversed by implementing the correct nutritional and supplemental protocols.

Choosing a low fat, plant-based diet is optimal for reversing hair loss.

ASWAGANDHA (for stimulating specific hormones)
​NETTLE (provides loads of silica)
THYME OIL (use topically, for boosting circulation)
ZINC SULFATE (protects the immune system)
B-12 (with methyl + adenosylcobalamine, to strengthen the nervous system)
HAWIIAN SPIRULINA (loaded with iron, plant-based proteins & minerals)
BARLEY GRASS JUICE POWDER (loaded with alkalizing minerals)

On top of supplement suggestions, adopting a low fat, plant-based diet will give the liver a rest and promote optimal functioning of the other organ systems. Let's be honest, if you are eating lots of junk, supplementing on top of that will likely not do you much good!

Eating a variety of fruits and veggies is optimal, although every little change does matter. Don't hold yourself back in pursuit of perfection! The little things do add up. The foods listed below are specific to help restore hair loss:
​
KALE
SPINACH
LENTIL
BLACK BEAN
​HEMP SEED
WALNUT
FIGS
WILD BLUEBERRY
BANANAS
PAPAYAS
​MANGOS
Be mindful of the amount of protein you incorporate in your diet and realize that too much protein can have negative effects on your liver and as a result, your skin, hair and nails. Try to move your focus from protein to the particular foods and supplements that can offer genuine support.

An interesting observation I have made time and again with clients is that they will re-grow a little bit of thier brow hair after a microblading session. Microblading stimulates the area because of increased blood flow.

Many clients heve concern that the process will destroy what hairs they do have. This is never the case. When done properly your natural brow is perfectly preserved.


Most clients that come to me are experiencing hairloss to some degree. It is my job to help boost thier confidence, even if it is just in the mean time while they are working to heal and get their own hair back. On the other hand, many clients of mine have great natural brows but they just like the perfected look of microblading versus their own natural brow. Either way, it's always an honor and pleasure to compliment someone's journey to feeling more comfortable in their skin.

When we feel good inside, it reflects on the outside!

​The phenomenal thing about our bodies is that when we finally know the truth and the tools we need, we gain momentum to move forward and reverse an array of undesirable symptoms.

Whether you are struggling with hairloss that is symptomatic of a medical condition or simply have noticed hair loss with age, I do believe this information can help you greatly.

Cheers to a radiant you!

Hi Alana!

Great article! Definitely a thought provoking and interesting read with great info!

I have a question for you regarding those of us with thyroid issues. I have hypothyroidism, but I am very fortunate in that it has never affected my hair growth/retention. I was also a child of the 90's and now have sparse brows because of overplucking. I've been doing my homework on microblading for the past year now, and have decided it's something I want to pursue. Recently, I've come across a few professionals in the field that will not accept thyroid patients for various reasons (potential dry skin in the area, potential thickening of skin in the area, potential for the skin to not retain pigment, etc). I'm wondering what are your thoughts on people with a thyroid condition getting microblading done? Is it a good option for us? Or perhaps it would depend on the individual?

Hi Kaylene!

Thank you for reading! You definitely have some great questions. Yes, many technicians will not work with thyroid conditions because of the unpredictability of pigment retention in the skin. In my own work I have found that it varies from client to client how severe and how much of an actual issue it presents.

If you do have any issues with the skin seeming inconsistent with texture and dryness/oil, I would say that microblading is not be the best option. I usually look out for "problematic skin" which includes patchiness , excessive oil/dry, infection & ruddy tones.

As long as the skin appears healthy, I have worked with quite a few thyroid and autoimmune cases. I do always explain however that there is a risk, as the healed outcome may not be what is expected. However I have yet to encounter an issue.

One thing I would caution because you are dealing with a thyroid condition is to be sure that you are only using pigments that are heavy-metal free. Heavy metals are common in permanent makeup and although they are in small amounts they can impact the body when you're already dealing with some underlying imbalances.

I hope this helps, Kaylene! Thank you again for reading & I wish you all the best on your journey to your dream brows :)!

Sincerely,
Alana

Thanks so much for the quick response Alana!

That's very encouraging to hear as I have normal skin and don't have texture issues.

I'm glad to hear that you've worked with people who have thyroid conditions and have had success with them as you are actually the go-to brow gal that has been recommended to me :).

Hoping that I'll be able to snag an appointment when you open up bookings for the Fall!

Thanks again!

Hi!

What an awesome blog! I'm so happy I came across this, thank you! I was wondering how do we incorporate all of these supplements? I just finished reading the medical medium book and I'm struggling with knowing how much of the supplements to take and when? It just seems that there's so many LOL!

Hi Danna!

I am creating a course to help with this! Visit goldsoulstribe.com (we are currently switching it over to healingrootscollective.com so check both just in case!)

I completely understand how overwhelming and in the course we break this all down simply! We go over exactly what you really need & what is most important.

Sending my love!

Hi Alana

I just came across your post. Thank you for sharing your tips.They are very helpful. May I ask what you specifically did to heal from chronic acne? I'm asking because my acne has getting worse since I stopped taking birth control. There are a few days when my skin seems to get better and then all of the sudden it breaks out again. Your insight would be much appreciated. Thank you.

Hi beautiful!!

My apologies for the big delay. I am going to be addressing this very soon in a blog post!! There’s SO much to really explain & share. You can heal it. Without a doubt!

I will be posting this soon & hopefully she’s some insights for you girl!

Sending my love!

Hi Alana, Can you recommend a natural resource/product to remove eyebrow tattoos? My tattoos are 3 years old. Sadly, I got my brows done just before the micro-blading movement. (At the time I felt self-conscious about my thinning eyebrows due to EBV/Hashimotos.) My eyebrows are blonde but my tattoo is light brown which creates an upkeep nightmare. I want to fade/remove them and go natural or make way for a more natural looking micro-blading. Thanks! Danielle

Hi lovely!

I am so sorry to hear of your struggle with old brow tattoos! Honestly I feel the best thing is time, but you can try variation of “wrecking balm” removal solutions. I have worked with so many to remove and these topical products are hit and miss on whether they actually work.

I use Eliminink in my practice which pulls ink to the surface of the skin. It’s an ugly healing process (you’ll need bangs to cover it) as it’s a chemical reaction that’s happening.

I would wait until your immune system and adrenals are a little stronger to undergo a process like that, however! For brows I do like it a lot better than laser options which can be very dangerous and push ink INTO the body even further.

Sending my love!

Hi! You sound exactly like me in many ways except I will most likely never be in contact with Anthony William, unfortunately. I purchased all his books. I also got a series of vaccines around the same age as you and a couple years later started getting all these crazy health issues. Ex. Rosacea, eczema, IBS, anxiety/panic attacks, skin color changes, loss of hair, etc.
Would you privately send me a message about the vaccine you received? Or I can tell you what I got, because I would love to know if its the same thing and what regime Anthony told you to follow to get back to your normal, healthy self.
Thank you!!!

Hi Alana!
I have been juicing celery for about 8 months now and also taking Ashwagna as well. I had significant hair loss due to high dhea levels. Nothing as able to bring it down. Any suggestions. Thank you.

Hi Chris! So proud of you! That’s amazing what you’re doing. Supporting your adrenals is very important. Are you doing adrenal snacks?

http://www.medicalmedium.com/blog/16-snacks-for-adrenal-fatigue

I would recommend Thyroid Healing by Anthony William which will give you tons of good advice for how to stop feeding the root cause of elevated hormone levels. He recommends cutting out dairy, wheat, eggs, canola oil, soy, and corn as they are inflammatory foods that only fuel the issue. I would consider starting there and just making the changes slowly. Cutting these foods out and adding more fruits and veggies in will help— but may will cause detoxification which may make you feel a little worse. So definitely start slow:)

Massaging thyme and rosemary oils into the scalp can help promote circulation.

If you need further guidance I recommend working with Whitney DeMaria www.breakingfreewithwhitney.com

Wishing you the best!!
