Whether from stress, hormones, aging or illness, hair thinning, and hair loss can happen to anyone. While hair naturally goes through cycles of increased shedding, if you’re finding more than your fair share in your brush or shower basin, it may be time for a Fol-on intervention. Today we’re diving deep into Maya Chia’s approach to scalp wellness with their newest Hero product, Power Fol Advanced Multi-Correctional Scalp and Hair Treatment, a natural solution for hair loss. Power Fol is a weightless leave-in serum that nourishes the scalp and hair follicles, encourages hair density and fullness, and reduces hair thinning that can lead to significant hair loss.

So Fol Of It
Hair growth doesn’t happen overnight. (Well okay, it does, but veeery slowly.) Maya Chia’s Power Fol addresses the short term and long term needs of those who are waiting patiently to see visible results of treatment. While you’re waiting for your hair to grow, Power Fol provides immediately visible volume to the hair shaft with a nutrient-dense, clinically proven, proprietary blend of pea peptides, amino acids, vegan collagen, photo-actives and adaptogens. Not surprisingly, caffeine is included to boost cellular activity and inspire hair growth in the root of the hair follicle, increasing the appearance of thicker, fuller hair.
Through Thick and Thin
While Power Fol delivers immediate gratification by boosting volume, it’s also working under the scalp’s surface to hinder hair loss. Power Fol is uniquely formulated with three plant-based actives – Ginseng Extract, Saw Palmetto and Red Clover Flower – each chosen for their ability to inhibit 5 alpha reductases, the enzyme that converts testosterone into the hair-ravaging androgen, dihydrotestosterone.

The Skinny on the Scalp
Just like the skin, the scalp’s microbiome must be healthy, hydrated and balanced in order to grow strong, nourished hair. Maya Chia incorporates many of the same scientifically proven ingredients used in their award-winning clean skincare line into Power Fol’s innovative formula to nourish the scalp and hair follicle. Hydrolyzed lupine peptides deliver vitamins, minerals and essential nutrients, while curcumin, astaxanthin and chia seed oil deliver unrivaled antioxidant protection and strengthen skin barrier function. Ashwagandha reduces stress hormones that may lead to hair thinning.
Hair loss can be a result of hormonal fluctuations, increased stress and cortisol, is often experienced post-partum, as well as being hereditary. Until now, there hasn’t been a targeted solution that was packed with completely healthy ingredients that perform as a natural solution to hair loss. There’s a lot to learn about hair loss, so I’ve asked Maya Chia Founder Susanne Norwitz to walk us through the details. And, to offer her clinical perspective, Dr. Meryl Joerg, Assistant Clinical Professor of Dermatology at Mt. Sinai, weighs in on what makes Power Fol uniquely effective, as a non-prescription, clean natural solution for hair loss.
