Are You Losing Hair—Or Losing Scalp Health?

If you’ve started to notice more hair in the shower drain, a widening part line, or your ponytail feeling thinner than it used to, you’re not alone. I see it all the time here in my chair at Studio Meraki, just a few minutes from Lake of the Ozarks.

Most people think hair loss starts in the hair, but in reality—it starts in the scalp.

That’s why my Meraki Pure Scalp Facial focuses on rebuilding scalp health first. As someone who’s trained in trichology, the science of scalp and hair health, I’ve helped clients slow down shedding, calm inflammation, and create an environment where hair can grow back stronger and healthier.

What Causes Hair Loss—and Why the Scalp Matters

Hair loss can show up for so many reasons:

  • Hormonal shifts (like postpartum or perimenopause)

  • Stress or illness

  • Extension damage or tight hairstyles

  • Chemical lighteners and color

  • Buildup from dry shampoo or product use

  • Poor circulation or inflammation

Instead of just applying a serum and hoping for the best, I start with what’s happening on your scalp—because that’s where real change begins.

Why Exfoliation Is the First Step

Over time, your scalp can develop layers of buildup: from sweat, product, oil, and dead skin. If this buildup hardens or clogs the follicle, it can:

  • Trap bacteria or fungus

  • Create inflammation

  • Suffocate new growth

  • Lead to excessive shedding

During my Meraki Pure treatment, I start with a triple cleanse and enzyme exfoliation that gently removes this congestion. Most of my clients say their scalp has never felt cleaner—and it’s often the first time they realize how much buildup was affecting their hair growth.

How Ozone and Steam Support Healthy Growth

Next, I use a combination of ozone therapy and warm steam to deeply detox the scalp and stimulate circulation. Ozone has powerful antibacterial properties that help reduce irritation, while steam opens the pores so your scalp can absorb the nutrients it really needs.

If you’re struggling with slow regrowth or inflammation, this step alone can make a huge difference in rebalancing the scalp and getting follicles working again.

What Makes This Different from Other Hair Loss Treatments

This isn’t a product pitch or a one-size-fits-all approach. I create custom scalp plans based on what your body is showing me in real time.

My approach includes:

  • Deep cleansing and detox

  • Red light therapy for cellular repair

  • Targeted serums and scalp nutrition

  • Circulation-boosting massage

  • Lifestyle and home care guidance

Plus, I understand how extensions, bleach, or color treatments affect the scalp because I work with them every day. I always design a plan that protects your hair integrity while supporting long-term scalp health.

Who Is This For?

You may be a good candidate for my scalp wellness facial if:

  • You’re seeing more shedding than normal

  • You’re postpartum or under high stress

  • You have buildup, oil imbalance, or flaking

  • You want to extend the life of your extensions

  • You’ve tried products but nothing has worked

  • You just want to be proactive about keeping your hair healthy

Even if your hair looks fine now, maintaining a clean, nourished scalp can help prevent future loss and give your hair the best chance to thrive.
