The Truth About GLP-1 and Hair Loss

(And Why You Don’t Need to Freak Out)

You’ve probably heard the whispers: “GLP-1s can make your hair fall out.” And while that sounds scary, the truth is a lot less dramatic — and completely fixable.

Hair loss while taking medications like semaglutide (Ozempic®) or tirzepatide (Mounjaro®) isn’t because these medications attack your hair. It’s because your body is changing — fast. Rapid weight loss, shifting hormones, and nutrient gaps can all throw your system off balance. And when your body is busy recalibrating, your hair can sometimes get left behind.

The good news? With a little support, your hair can bounce back stronger, shinier, and healthier than before.

Why Hair Loss Happens with GLP-1s

Let’s break it down:

• Rapid weight loss: When the pounds drop quickly, your body prioritizes essentials like metabolism and healing — not hair growth.

• Nutrient deficiencies: Eating less can mean missing out on key nutrients (like iron, B vitamins, and protein) that your follicles rely on.

• Hormonal changes: GLP-1s can subtly shift hormones like thyroid and estrogen, which play a big role in your hair cycle.

• Genetics: If thinning runs in your family, any added stress — even from weight loss — can speed up the process.

So no, it’s not the medication’s fault. It’s just your metabolism working overtime — and your follicles asking for a little TLC.

We’ve created a smart, simple two-step system that helps you protect your strands while your body transforms.

Hair Growth Foam — $119/month

Our prescription-grade formula hits all the right notes with a mix of medical-grade ingredients that work in synergy:

• Latanoprost: Wakes up dormant follicles

• Minoxidil: Boosts circulation and stimulates new growth

• Melatonin: Fights oxidative stress and increases hair density

• Finasteride: Blocks DHT, the hormone responsible for thinning

• Tretinoin: Enhances absorption and keeps follicles clear

Together, they help stimulate regrowth, slow shedding, and strengthen existing strands.

Pro tip: This foam can leave your scalp feeling a little greasy or crispy — dry shampoo is your new best friend.

Why They’re Better Together

Think of it like this: the foam works on the surface, the vitamins work from within — and together, they’re unstoppable.
