The 6-Cause Restoration Method™
A consultation framework for women navigating real hair changes.
Most hair stylists approach thinning, shedding, and hair changes as a single problem with a single solution, typically more extensions, more product, more volume. That approach fails most women because it skips the most important step.
There are six distinct categories of hair change in women. Each one has its own pattern, its own progression, and its own restoration approach. The right method for one cause is sometimes the wrong method for another.
The 6-Cause Restoration Method™ is the consultation framework I built to identify which of those six causes is shaping your hair, so we can design a real plan to restore what's been lost.
We identify first. Then we restore.
The Six Causes I Work With
At your Discovery, we identify which of these six causes is your primary driver, whether there are secondary contributing factors, and how those factors should shape your restoration plan.
GLP-1 & Medication
GLP-1 medications (Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound), rapid weight loss, thyroid medication, and certain other prescriptions can affect the hair growth cycle. Many women experience a temporary but dramatic shedding phase that peaks 3 to 6 months after starting the medication.
The right approach: Restoration that supports the regrowth cycle without adding tension to fragile follicles.
Hormonal Transitions
Perimenopause, menopause, postpartum recovery, PMOS (formerly PCOS), thyroid imbalance, and oral contraceptive changes all shift the hormonal environment your follicles depend on. The result is often visible thinning at the crown, hairline, or part.
The right approach: Restoration that protects the hairline while supporting whatever regrowth your hormones permit.
Genetics & Pattern Hair Loss
Female pattern hair loss and hereditary thinning follow predictable progression patterns, often visible decades before they become severe. Family history is the strongest indicator.
The right approach: Restoration that addresses where you are in the progression now, with a plan that adapts as the pattern continues.
Autoimmune Hair Conditions
Alopecia areata, frontal fibrosing alopecia (FFA), lichen planopilaris (LPP), central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia (CCCA), and other autoimmune hair conditions occur when the immune system targets hair follicles. These conditions require coordination with a dermatologist or rheumatologist for medical care.
The right approach: Restoration that protects the scalp, avoids tension on actively inflamed follicles, and works in parallel with your medical care. The goal is dignity, density, and confidence while your medical team manages the underlying condition.
Trichotillomania Recovery
Active or recent hair-pulling, even mild, even years past, leaves predictable damage patterns. Many women in pulling recovery feel shame about this cause. The studio is a safe space, and the restoration work is some of the most rewarding I do.
The right approach: Restoration that provides a protective barrier while regrowth happens underneath, and ongoing support through the recovery process.
Mechanical & Chemical Damage
Bleach, over-coloring, traction from tight styles, heat damage, and prior extension wear can weaken the hair shaft and create irregular density patterns.
The right approach: Often the most addressable of the six causes. Restoration that protects what remains while we undo the damage and rebuild density.
How the Discovery Works
Your Discovery is a 90-minute in-studio consultation session where the assessment work happens. It's not a sales appointment. It's a real evaluation of your scalp, density, and hair history.
The Discovery includes:
• A full scalp examination, including a photographic baseline of your crown, hairline, temples, sides, and nape, so we can track changes over time.
• A density assessment by zone, identifying patterns that point to specific causes.
• A hair shaft examination, looking at thickness, texture, and condition in your individual strands.
• A pull test to evaluate active shedding versus stable density.
• A complete hair-history conversation covering medications, hormonal status, family history, recovery patterns, and any history of damage.
• The Restoration Index™, a 5-question measurement of your starting point that we'll re-take at day 90 of your program.
By the end of the Discovery, together we'll have identified your primary cause, named any secondary contributors, and designed your personalized Restoration Roadmap, which you take home with you, printed, yours to keep.
Your Restoration Roadmap
Every Discovery ends with a written Restoration Roadmap, a printed document I design specifically for you. It includes:
• Your primary cause and what it means for your hair
• Any secondary contributing factors
• The recommended restoration method (or combination of methods)
• Your timeline, what to expect at months 1, 3, 6, and 12
• Your personalized at-home protocol
• Your intake Restoration Index™ score
• The program options for working together going forward
You leave with this roadmap in your hands, regardless of whether you choose to enroll in a program with me. It's yours to keep, yours to reference, and yours to take to any other specialist if that's the direction you decide to go.
Restoration Programs
If you decide to continue your restoration with me, there are three ways we can work together. Your $197 Discovery investment applies in full toward whichever program you enroll in.
Hair value typically ranges from $500 to $4,000 across your program window, depending on your method, length, and density. All hair included. Color services to keep your blend and roots seamless throughout your program are included and tailored to you at enrollment. Flexible monthly financing available through Affirm, happy to walk you through your options at the moment of enrollment.
The Restoration Promise™
Every install at Conceited Beauty Bar is backed by a three-pillar guarantee.
1 · It won't damage your hair.
If, during your time with me, your natural hair shows damage from my application, I will remove all extensions free of charge and provide three complimentary scalp-recovery treatments.
2 · It will look and feel like it was always part of you.
Any adjustment throughout your program window is on me: a lifted weft, an edge that's not sitting right, a section that needs a little more density. Just text me. If the install itself doesn't pass the best-friend test on day one, I'll redo the full install at no charge within 14 days of the initial install.
3 · You will feel like yourself again.
Every program client takes The Restoration Index™, a 5-question measurement of restoration, at intake during your Discovery, and again at day 90 of your program. If your day 90 score is below 17 out of 25, I will credit your remaining sessions toward services of your choice.
