Helix & Habit: The Effects of Lifestyle on Hairstyle

BY STEPHAN CHIRINIAN

My podcast focuses on the ways in which people can promote a healthy hairstyle from their lifestyle. First, I talk about FGF5, a protein acting as the on/off switch for hair growth, and how to promote proper on/off functionality from lifestyle. The next topic was the EDAR370a protein, and how that affects hair structure, the group that it is found in, and habits that can be used to maintain healthy levels of the protein to promote healthy hair structure. Then, I speak about androgen receptors, how lifestyle can affect androgen receptivity, and androgens in the body, and how that affects hairstyle. Finally, I offered a general conclusion to the general habits that can promote a healthy hairstyle, and what works overall from a healthy lifestyle and translates to a healthy hairstyle.
