With 1.6 million Instagram posts and counting, the #HairLoss hashtag is one of the few things that has genuinely thrived in the last 18 months.<\/p>\n

Whether you\u2019re a COVID-19 survivor or merely reeling from the stress of the pandemic,
\nfinding strands of hair all over your WFH office is textbook 2021.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

To the rescue: a raft of hair-loss prevention pills, powders, supplements and serums chock-full of targeted vitamins, minerals and collagen \u2014 the superstar beauty ingredient du jour.<\/p>\n

While most are ingestible, others, such as the celebbeloved Vegamour Gro Hair Serum and K\u00e9rastase Initialiste Advanced Scalp and Hair Concentrate, are slathered right on the roots of the problem.<\/p>\n

Sales of Nutrafol have been booming largely due to COVID, says Giorgos Tsetis, co-founder and CEO of the dietary supplement brand, which is sold on its website and through medical practices. \u201cOur network of physicians has been reporting higher-than-ever numbers of telogen effluvium, the temporary kind of hair loss due to stress or shock to the system.\u201d<\/p>\n\n

Beverly Hills-based hair transplant surgeon and restoration expert Craig Ziering has been slammed by so much demand on both coasts that he recently added a Greenwich, Conn., location alongside his Upper East Side practice.<\/p>\n

\u201cHair loss is devastating,\u201d he says. \u201cBut there are at-home solutions people can use to disrupt the telogen effluvium and slow down the shedding \u2014 everything from supplements to prescription-grade topicals and laser caps, as well as in-office nonsurgical therapies like our Amnio-Z protein injections.\u201d<\/p>\n

While the desire to gobble every hot new hair vitamin is understandable, Ziering cautions anyone experiencing hair loss to pick just one high-end \u201ccombination\u201d formula containing biotin, vitamins B and D, magnesium, folate, iron, omega-3 fatty acids and niacin.<\/p>\n

Viviscal Professional and Nutrafol, which he stocks in his office, are two good over-the-counter bets, he says.<\/p>\n\n

Founded in 2019 by New Zealand naturopath and nutritionist Libby Matthews, the powdered collagen brand Dose & Co. caught the eye of Khlo\u00e9 Kardashian, who signed on as global spokesperson and partner in 2020, just as the line was launching in the US.<\/p>\n

With a mission of making premium collagen more accessible, the range includes both flavored and unflavored options, as well as creamers that can make getting your daily hit of collagen \u2014 thought to be beneficial for skin, hair and nails \u2014 as easy as sipping
\nyour morning joe.<\/p>\n

Another celebrated skin-care ingredient, vitamin C, has found its way into a two-step topical hair-loss product.<\/p>\n

First launched in Japan, Vitabrid C12 Hair Tonic Professional Set includes a vial of vitamin C powder that\u2019s mixed into the accompanying tonic and applied directly to the scalp.<\/p>\n

Together, they target a deficiency of a specific type of naturally occurring collagen (17A1) that can result in undernourished hair follicles.<\/p>\n
