Clear information.
Careful review.
Care The Hair is a hair education website. We explain hair growth, shedding, scalp health and everyday care in plain language, with sources readers can follow.
Our medical reviewer
Dr. Laiba Tul Jannat medically reviews articles for Care The Hair. Medical review is separate from writing, editing and checking references.
An article carries a medical-review credit when its final version has been reviewed. If substantive medical advice changes, that version needs another review. An editorial update date does not mean a new medical review has taken place.
How we handle evidence
We link important health claims to relevant research or clinical guidance. We distinguish established treatments from early findings and explain when a small study, laboratory result or product-specific trial cannot support a broader claim.
We prioritise accuracy over promises of rapid regrowth. A supplement, oil or routine should not be described as a proven treatment simply because it is popular or natural.
How articles are updated
Articles may be revised to correct errors, clarify a study or reflect changes in treatment guidance. Editorial dates identify those changes. We keep writing and medical-review responsibilities clear rather than applying a blanket review badge to every update.
What this website can help with
Our guides can help you understand terminology, explore evidence and prepare questions for a clinician. They cannot examine your scalp, identify your individual diagnosis or prescribe treatment.
New patches of hair loss, a painful or inflamed scalp, or persistent unexplained shedding deserve medical assessment. Seek individual advice before starting prescription treatments.
Start with the essentials
Understand shedding, thinning and breakage, or explore the connection between DHT and pattern hair loss.
