Trichology
Trichology at About Hair Mackay
Understanding hair and scalp health with Certified Trichologist Liz Hamilton.
What is Trichology
Understanding Hair and Scalp Health
Trichology is the study of the hair and scalp and focuses on understanding factors that may contribute to concerns such as hair thinning, excessive shedding, scalp discomfort, dryness, oiliness, and changes in hair quality.
As a Certified Trichologist and experienced hair professional, Liz provides hair and scalp assessments designed to help you better understand what may be influencing your hair and scalp health.
While a Trichologist is not a medical practitioner and does not diagnose medical conditions, Trichology can help identify patterns, contributing factors, and areas that may benefit from further investigation or professional support.
Your Visit
What to Expect During Your Consultation
During your consultation, Liz will discuss your hair concerns, lifestyle, hair care practices, health history, and any recent changes that may be impacting your hair or scalp.

Recommendations may include:
- Hair and scalp care routines
- Product recommendations
