“Working as a trichologist I come into contact with people who are suffering with hair and scalp related problems on a daily basis,” he said.

“I work closely with clients’ GPs to try and get to the underlying medical issues that often underpin these conditions.

“From stress to vitamin deficiencies and bad diets, through to looking at the genetics involved with hair loss, the people I see are often understandably distressed.”
