Use your genetic information to keep your hair healthy.
Personalized, DNA-based hair care
Everyone’s hair is unique — from color to length to texture. And that’s partly due to your genes! Understanding your genetic predispositions can help you take care of your hair so that you look and feel your best.
Hair reports are categorized into three groups:
Hair Profile
Hair appearance, color, quality, and aging are heavily influenced by our genes. In fact, most hair traits are polygenic which means that they depend on many genetic variants, not just one or two. In addition, hair quality and aging depend on our lifestyle, environment, and general health.
Scalp Profile
The hair of your dreams starts with the skin that covers your head. Scalp health largely depends on genetics, but stress, psychological factors, overuse of treatments, and styling tools also contribute to scalp conditions.
Understanding your scalp health and factors that contribute to it is very important for your hair health.
Vitamins and Minerals
The cells that make up your scalp and each strand of hair require a regular supply of key nutrients. For most people, eating the correct balance of nutrients will supply the hair with all that it needs to remain shiny, lustrous, and strong. People with certain genetic variations, however, may have imbalances of certain key vitamins and minerals that are crucial for maintaining hair health.
