COSTA MESA, Calif., May 29 Every day, women worldwide lookin the mirror, and where they used to see healthy hair, they now see anincreasing proportion of scalp.

Ironically, stress itself is the main reason why many women are facinghair loss and what appears to be early balding, according to ErkkieHarris-Wells, a trichologist and founder of the Costa-Mesa, Calif.-basedMiyohara International Trichology Clinic(http://www.miyoharainternational.com). As someone who diagnoses and treatshair and scalp disorders, Harris-Wells has a bird's-eye view of this medicaltrend -- and is no longer surprised to see the physical indicators of stresswhen viewing hair samples through a microscope.

"The number of women suffering from hair loss is definitely on the rise,"Harris-Wells says. "Even more disturbing is that nearly 80 percent of thetime, women's hair samples show symptoms of thyroid diseases or hormoneimbalances, which are serious manifestations of stress-related disorders."

Unlike a blood test, which only provides results based on what the body isexperiencing at the moment of the blood draw, trichology's cutting-edge,microscopic diagnosis reveals up to six months' worth of a person's physicalhistory. The testing also shows that stress doesn't discriminate -- it'spresent in the hair of women young and old, but particularly those leadingdemanding careers or lifestyles, Harris-Wells says.

"Here in California, I'm diagnosing teenage girls, working mothers andmenopausal women," Harris-Wells says. "There are even celebrities and modelsbattling hair loss, too. Women everywhere are stressed. Their bodies are underattack, and so their hair is falling out or bald spots are appearing. Sadly,they're struggling secretly with this hair loss, trying to solve the problemon their own."

Miyohara International Trichology Clinic offers hope for most hair losssufferers. This solution starts in educating women on the cause behind theirhair loss. Miyohara also provides the best preventative products, and offersreferrals to the appropriate doctors who can treat the underlying causes, bethey physical, emotional or both.
