IInnttrroodduuccttiioonn Hair loss is a problem that affects millions and millions of people every day around the world, mostly men, but also a good percentage of women. Loss of self confidence and sex appeal are just some of the feelings that a person has when he (or she) realizes that he is losing hair. In order to avoid going bald, people try different products - pills, lotions, herbs and special shampoos - but results are not always as expected. Many pharmaceutical companies, researchers and different individuals have tried to find a definitive solution for hair loss, but as you can see, there are still many people around who are losing hair or going bald. A treatment that is really workable and easily accessible by everybody had not been found until Endhairloss.eu made its discovery. Here at Endhairloss.eu we have mastered the hair loss problem and we are very happy to share this truth with you.

In this way, you will be able to use the it correctly, and in such a way that you will be able to stop your hair loss once and for all. As mentioned above, there are still many people who are dealing with a hair loss problem. If their baldness is progressing, no one is really helping them, and that is the reason why we exist - to help those people - to help you.

3 TThhee ssccaallpp ssttrruuccttuurree In order to understand our technology better you need to know a little more about the human scalp structure. The scalp is the soft skin covering the top of the human head. It consists of 5 layers: the skin, the connective tissue, the epicranial fascia, the loose areolar tissue, and the pericranium. These are the technical names, and some of them may sound a little complicate to you. Just remember this: the scalp is composed of 5 layers, and don’t pay attention to their difficult names. The first three layers are bound together and form a single unit which can move over the loose areolar tissue covering the pericranium. This is a very important feature of the human scalp; its ability to move back and forth, on your cranial bones, and as you will see, it is an important factor in the implementation of our technology.

Skin

The skin of the scalp is thick and hair bearing, and contains numerous sebaceous glands. As a result, the scalp is a common site for sebaceous cysts.

Connective tissue (superficial fascia)

The superficial fascia connects skin to the underlying fibrous connective tissue of the occipito-frontalis muscle (the main head muscle) and provides a passageway for the nerves and blood vessels which are attached to it.

Epicranial fascia:

The epicranial fascia is a thin tendinous structure that provides an insertion site for the occipito frontalis muscle. Laterally, it continues as the temporal fascia while frontally it extends to the upper eyelids. It provides a space that allows fluids and blood to pass from the scalp to the upper eyelids.

Loose areolar tissue

The fourth layer is tissue that consists of collagenous and elastic fibers. It loosely connects the epicranial fascia to the pericranium and allows the superficial three layers of the scalp to move over the pericranium.

Pericranium

The Pericranium is the thick fibrous membrane that covers the entire outer surface of the skull and serves as an attachment for muscles and tendons. The human scalp and its five layers.

In the illustration you can see the hair follicles, the blood vessels, and the capillaries (the blue and red small pipes attached to the bottom of the hair follicle: the papilla).

Sebaceous glands are also associated with each hair follicle. They produce an oily secretion called “sebum” to help condition the hair and the surrounding skin.

The hair follicle The hair follicle is a stocking–like structure that contains several layers with different functions.

At the base of the hair follicle is the dermal papilla, an extension of the outermost layer of the skin. This contains capillaries or tiny blood vessels that feed the cells.

The dermal papilla is fed by the bloodstream which carries nourishment to produce new hair.

The hair follicle is one of the most delicate parts of our physiology, and to be healthy it needs a continuous supply of nourishment and oxygen, which are brought by our peripheral blood circulation.

To understand our Endhairloss technology, it is also essential to know about our head and face muscles. We have different muscles in our head and face, and these are used to make the different expressions that convey our feelings. They are all connected and work together. The occipito-frontalis muscle is the main muscle of the human head. It consists of two occipital and two frontal parts. The occipital parts arise from the superior nuchal lines on the occipital bone. The frontal parts originate from the skin and superficial fascia of the upper eyelids, as you can see in the picture on the left. Nerve supply: Each occipital part is innervated by the posterior branch of the facial nerve, and each frontal part is innervated by the frontal branch of the facial nerve . Action: The frontal part of this muscle can raise the eyebrows and the skin over the upper part

of the nose, and at the same time draw the scalp forward, throwing the skin of the forehead into transverse wrinkles.

6 The Occipitalis draws the scalp backward. By alternately activating the Frontalis and Occipitalis the entire scalp may be moved forward and backward. Through the ordinary action of the two muscles, the eyebrows are raised. Smaller groups of muscles control movements of the eyebrows and eyelids, the scalp, the nose, and the external ears. The external ears muscles are called the "auricular" muscles and are attached to the helmet-like scalp tendon located in front, above, and behind the ear. The auricular muscles are fastened to the bones and tissues of the scalp on one end, and to the skin around the ear at the other. The muscles of facial expression originate on the surface of the skull. When they contract, the skin moves and they are connected with the head muscles, as well as with the complex structure of the other facial and head muscles. They interact to move the different parts of our head and to make countless facial expressions. Among their functions, one that is very important for our ends is the transportation of blood that the muscles create in the peripheral parts of our face and head through their movement. The primary supply of blood to the capillaries and the blood vessels of the hair follicles is assured by the loose movement, back and forward, of the frontalis and occipitalis muscle over the skull. As mentioned above, in the ordinary action of the two muscles, the eyebrows are elevated, throwing the skin of the forehead into transverse wrinkles. SSuummmmaarryy:

� The first 3 layers of the scalp (which are bound together) have the ability to move back and forth on the fourth layer, which is a connective tissue of collagenous and elastic fibers.

� We have an important muscle on our scalp which is called the “occipito-frontalis muscle”. The frontal part of this muscle can raise the eyebrows, while the occipitalis part allows the

scalp to move over the skull, in connection with the frontal part. Its nerves are connected to the facial nerves. � Plentiful sebaceous glands make the scalp one of the most common sites for sebaceous

cysts. � The muscles of facial expression originate on the surface of the skull. The movement of the occipitalis-frontalis muscle along the skull keeps the blood circulation at optimal levels and preserves the health of the hair follicles. Nourished by the blood circulation, the follicles keep producing new hair.

7 TThhee ccoonnnneeccttiioonn bbeettwweeeenn ssttrreessss aanndd hhaaii rr lloossss We hear often that stress causes hair loss, but how does this actually happen? What is the actual link between these two factors? Scientists have finally demonstrated that blood circulation changes in response to mental stress and heavy mental work. Patterns of circulation changes have been revealed in response to distressing conditions in our daily lives. This is because the way we feel influences our body and our health.

It has been noticed that a decrease of blood flow to the gray matter of the brain cortex occurs due to stress in our daily lives. Our systemic circulation, including the cerebral and scalp circulation, is closely related to our different emotional states; in short stress makes you lose your hair. Besides, stress may also strain the cranium muscle and thus affect the circulation of our precious red liquid. In fact, many of our body muscles get very tense under stressful conditions. This reduces blood

flow to the furthest parts of our body – head included. Capillaries become constricted and less blood reaches your hair follicles and roots. In response to pressure and worry, the male hormone increases in the body, causing hypersteatosis: excessive sebaceous secretion. Such increased production also occurs during puberty due to hormonal changes.

Hair becomes excessively oily and the overproduction of sebum on the scalp may result in undernourished roots that are literally "drowned" in the oily substance. This weakens both

8 the scalp and the hair strands. If your hair is too oily your scalp circulation wil l be reduced more than with other types of hair . Oil and dead cells combine to form debris on the scalp’s surface that hardens and sticks to the scalp, reducing circulation and eventually suffocating hair roots. An overproduction of sebum hinders the growth of healthy hair. The hair that falls out (which is a natural occurrence for both men and women) is not replaced as it normally would be, due to the clogged follicles and the decreased blood circulation. Stress also causes cortisol (a hormone responsible for several stress-related changes in the body) levels to increase within the body. This increases oil production and causes acne breakouts. Another factor that contributes to hair loss is the continual and prolonged downward pull by the neck muscles, facial muscles and facial skin upon the scalp. This constricts the scalp blood vessels which nourish the hair roots and follicles. In fact, as already mentioned, the muscles of facial expression originate on the surface of the skull, and if you turn up your nose, open your mouth, or use any other facial muscles that control expression, you will realize that the scalp muscles and skin are closely connected to facial control muscles and skin. When, for one of the above reasons the blood circulation to the scalp starts to diminish, a chain

reaction starts. The worst result of this is the progressive loss of the ability of the first three layers of the scalp to move along the skull. This decreases considerably the scalp blood circulation, the blood vessels start to constrict (the blood brings heat, and the blood vessels dilate with heat and constrict with cold), less blood will be allowed

9 through the papilla and the capillaries at the bottom of the hair follicle, and you will start to lose your hair. If you carefully observe the scalp skin of a bald person you will notice that the skin is “attached” to the scalp and does not move. It has even changed color from the “dark white” of a healthy and hairy scalp to the normal skin color of a bald man’s head. An individual whose scalp blood circulation is good moves his scalp involuntarily along the cranial bones several times a day, and this permits a steady flow of blood to the different regions of the scalp, preventing hair loss. The hair follicles will keep on producing new hairs, and the hair that is shed will be replaced by new growing hairs. When he raises his eyebrows as a reaction to events that may occur, the scalp, connected with the eyebrows by different nerves, moves forward and then backwards, and this happens several times a day. The massaging effect on the scalp caused by this movement ensures the supply of blood to the scalp. This is the secret and unsuspected movement that preserves the health of your hair. TThhee pprreecciioouuss rroollee ooff bblloooodd Blood supplies the body's organs with the oxygen and nutrients they need to survive. Without blood we couldn't fight infections, get rid of our own waste products, or regulate our body’s temperature. Without enough blood, we'd weaken and die, and that’s exactly what happens to the cells of your hair roots and follicles, when blood circulation decreases. There are two types of blood vessels which carry blood throughout our bodies: the arteries carry oxygenated blood (blood that has received oxygen from the lungs) from the heart to the rest of the body. The blood then travels through the veins back to the heart and lungs, where it receives more oxygen. Blood carries oxygen to every cell in the body. Besides its other vital components, it also contains glucose. Glucose combines with the oxygen in each cell, thus giving it energy. The cells of our body, including the cells constituting the hair follicles, can “breathe “ thanks to the oxygen brought to them by the blood, which also brings minerals, vitamins and other nutrition. Another very important point to consider is that the blood vessels dilate with heat and constrict with cold. When they dilate, blood flow increases through them. Increasing the blood circulation to the scalp with our technology enlarges the blood vessels of the hair follicles and permits a stable and even greater flow of blood. This alone will stop your hair loss.

The real secret to having a healthy scalp and everlasting thick hair is to prevent the layers of the scalp becoming fixed to the cranial bones, and having a strong and flexible occipito-frontalis muscle (OFM). This muscle, with its loose movement, backwards and forwards on the head, assures a continual and regular supply of blood to the roots and follicles of the hair, keeping them strong and healthy. We want to avoid the condition seen in the man to the right. In fact, if you observe the head of a bald person, or a person that has lost already much hair, you will notice that his scalp does not move on his head, and is totally or partially (according to the degree of the hair loss) FIXED to his cranial bones. When he frowns, the only part of the scalp that moves is the skin of the forehead itself. The skin of the scalp, from the forehead and up towards the vertex and the occipitalis areas, remains motionless. Even the color of the scalp changes in those who go bald: from dark white - the classical color of a healthy scalp - to the same color that the skin has on the forehead and other parts of the body. One of the characteristic traits of people who have a healthy scalp is a repeated use of the main head muscle (OFM), during the day, backwards and forwards on the scalp. This movement is made in connection with the squeeze (frown) of the forehead, and is often coupled with the eyebrow control muscles converging to the center of our forehead, right above

the nose. This movement is the “heart” of your hair. It is the “motor” that maintains the blood circulation at a good level over the entire scalp, and when the vital combined function of these muscles fails, your hair will inevitably fall out . These muscles, with their complex system of nerve fibers, represent what makes it possible for the scalp to stay loose and active on the head surface, continuing to perform the precious massage that assures the supply of blood to the hair follicles and roots. The OF muscle action, combined and coupled with the eyebrows and auricular muscles (the muscles around the ears), involves the entire scalp surface, and with its dynamic drive stimulates the blood circulation and assures that a continual flow of blood reach the roots and the hair follicles. Those who seem not to use these muscles in the fashion described above, have the ability to

11 unknowingly send micro signals with their nervous system to these muscles, thus ensuring good blood circulation with almost undetectable muscle movements.
