Trichology Technology Hair & Scalp Specialist

What is a Trichologist?

My name is Maria Mazengarb, and I am a Qualified Trichologist.  To be considered a certified trichologist, one has to successfully complete the Trichology Certification Course administered by the International Association of Trichologists (I.A.T.) This course was developed at the University of Southern California.

Being a certified trichologist, I specialise in hair and scalp problems, hair loss, baldness, scaling, itching, hair breakage, dryness or oiliness of the hair and scalp.

I can also examine your hair microscopically or suggest a mineral analysis of your hair.

Scientific research has shown that, for many elements, hair more closely reflects body mineral stores than blood or urine, particularly in cases of toxic metal accumulation.

Hair analysis is a highly important and cost-effective screening tool as it will significantly extend the benefits of healthcare.

Why We Trichologists Do What We Do

It is a well-known fact that there is no single cause for hair loss. For the myriad of reasons, we trichologists are at the frontlines of battling to reduce, stop, or prevent it.

While hairdressers, me being one for 30 years, are considered to be artists who craft beautiful hairstyles, Trichologists can be likened to  the best art supply store for those clients whose hair quality falls below expectations.

Factors like poor nutrition, medical or genetic problems, medications, and stress can adversely affect your hair and skin. Thus, your hair can be considered a sensitive “barometer” to imbalances in your body.

As a qualified trichologist, I can identify the cause of your hair or scalp issue by making a comprehensive assessment of your history and subsequently treat it where possible.

We trichologists can work closely with other natural and medical practitioners as well as specialists if needed as we provide a holistic approach to training hair and scalp conditions.

The Trichology Consultation

During the consultation the knowledge and experience of the Trichologist is used to establish the nature of the problem. As part of the diagnosis, the Trichologist may analyse the the hair microscopically or have it analysed for its mineral levels HTMA (hair tissue mineral analysis) measures the levels and comparative ratios of nutrient and toxic minerals found in hair, it regarded by many doctors, naturopaths and nutritional therapists as one of the most valuable screening tools available in everyday and preventative health care.

Once the problem has been identified, the Trichologist will discuss the cause with the patient and decide whether the problem requires topical and / or internal treatment and if so which treatment would be beneficial.
