Hair Thinning or Hair Loss? When to See a Trichologist in Wigan or Bolton

Noticing more hair in your brush? A widening part? Or perhaps your hair just isn’t as thick as it used to be?

Hair loss can feel distressing—but the good news is, you don’t have to go through it alone. At Ready Health Clinic in Standish, we work with experienced trichologists to help patients from Wigan, Bolton, and beyond get real answers and tailored treatments.

What Does a Trichologist Do?

A trichologist is a specialist in hair and scalp health. They look at everything from hair thinning and breakage to scalp irritation, excessive shedding, and patchy hair loss. If you’ve tried shop-bought products without success, a trichologist can help you get to the root of the issue (literally!).

When Should You Book an Appointment?

If you're experiencing any of the following, it’s worth seeking support:

• Gradual thinning or widening part

• Excessive daily shedding

• Bald patches (alopecia areata)

• Itchy, flaky or inflamed scalp

• Hair breakage or dry, brittle strands

• Post-pregnancy or menopause-related hair loss

What Causes Hair Loss?

Hair thinning can be linked to:

• Hormonal changes (e.g. thyroid issues, menopause, PCOS)

• Stress or poor sleep

• Nutrient deficiencies (iron, zinc, vitamin D, B12)

• Autoimmune conditions

• Hairstyles that pull on the scalp

• Medication side effects

What to Expect from a Consultation

You’ll be seen in a calm, private space where we’ll take a detailed history, examine your scalp, and may suggest blood tests or further assessments. You’ll leave with a clearer understanding of your hair’s condition—and a personalised plan to help improve it.
