Hair loss in men: how to establish an anti-hair loss routine (cleansing + lotion + maintenance)

Hair loss in men can be influenced by several factors.

Hair loss in men can be influenced by several factors, but when it is progressive and localised (e.g. hairline/crown), it is often referred to as androgenetic.

In these cases, the most sensible cosmetic approach is to establish a 3-step routine:

1. a targeted shampoo to support the scalp and hair fibre,
2. a lotion in vials as an intensive treatment (also suitable for men),
3. a maintenance lotion designed for the male scalp.

ESTĒREL offers a range of shampoos and lotions for female and male androgenetic alopecia.

Why male hair loss deserves a “methodical” approach

When hair changes in density and quality, the difference is not made by a single “miracle” product, but by consistency and the right combination of:

functional cleansing (cleaner and rebalanced scalp),

targeted active ingredients in lotion (direct application to the scalp),

maintenance (to support results over time).
