Researchers have identified the main cause of baldness and hair loss. Andro-genetic is the key word, as 95% of hair loss is andro-genetically based; 5% have other causes. An andro-genetic problem occurs inside the hair follicle whenever the male hormone testosterone comes in contact with a protein and is transformed into (DHT) dihydro-testosterone, which is sebogenic.
A sebogenic element creates seborrhea, whereby grease and scales
solidify into a deposit or build-up, inhibiting the growth of a new hair
follicle of a size comparable to the one it replaces. Essentially, the scalp has many sebaceous and sudoriferous (sweat) glands. There are many of them; in fact the scalp is said to be one of the body’s least clean areas. Organic waste is the by-product of gland secretions and natural regeneration of the skin cells. When this waste is not regularly cleaned, it can cause the prevention of normal hair re-growth mentioned earlier, as well as the odor, which typifies seborrhea and other hygiene problems.
What is a Hair Hygienist? A Hair Hygienist is a person who has been thoroughly trained by a specialized Ross educational program, has expertise in the proper hygiene of scalp and hair, and is duly certified in the application of the Ross Treatment Program. The Ross Micro-Projector, a special microscope for hair bulbs, is to the hygienist what x-rays are to the medical industry. This unique tool helps to evaluate hair roots and its many intricate conditions, in order to give an appropriate assessment on the living portion of hair follicles.
This way, a hygienist can determine what exactly must be done
in order to prevent further hair loss. In essence, the Micro-Projector
assists the hygienist in effectively evaluating the super-papillary (or
the hair follicle’s collar), as well as the density of the hair root.

The Ross
Treatment Program serves to revitalize and regulate not only the deeper
layer of skin, but the biological functions of hair and its life
sources, in addition to removing and normalizing sebaceous secretions.
