While hair loss is typically associated with men, the condition is also prevalent among women.
Losing your hair can be incredibly disheartening, with many sufferers reporting a lack of confidence, but thankfully, with the right tips and tricks, it can be treated.
TikTok creator Tori Porter (@toriporter95) documented a remarkable hair growth transformation over just two months, successfully addressing "pattern balding" that had left her "feeling self-conscious for years".
Tori attributed the condition "mainly down to genetics" whilst acknowledging it was "also potentially hormones".
Her comprehensive approach included multiple treatments ranging from red light therapy to specialised hair care products.
Her results were particularly striking, with visible new growth appearing within just two weeks of beginning her regimen.
Tori's treatment incorporated daily use of a red light cap, scalp massage, and supplements.
She also used Chāmpo's volumising Pitta shampoo and conditioner, designed for those experiencing thinning or loss, every two days.

The Pitta growth serum (applied nightly) proved particularly effective. Described as effective "for fine hair experiencing thinning or loss", the product is "clinically proven to reduce hair loss and shedding while visibly improving hair's thickness and fullness".
Tori noted remarkable results, stating: "This is the baby hair growth after just two weeks of that serum."
The serum contains an "advanced trichological hair growth treatment", harnessing caffeine, tetrapeptides, and ayurvedic haritaki extract, all expert-approved hair loss solutions.
According to the product description, it "instantly volumises roots while stimulating the scalp for fuller, stronger hair".

A trial conducted in 2022 found that after 12 weeks of daily use, 90 per cent of independent testers experienced less hair loss, and 88 per cent had visibly thicker and fuller hair.
While Tori opted for Chāmpo's hair loss solutions, similar products are available via hair, health, and beauty retailers. L'Oréal Paris, for example, sells an Elvive Growth Booster Serum.
Additional elements of Tori's regime included supplements, scalp massage, and strategic hairstyling.
She had highlights added to "swell the strand and make it appear thicker", alongside regular trims.
After completing the two-month programme, Tori expressed satisfaction with her results, saying: "I feel like my hair looks so much healthier."
The hair gurus at Philip Kingsley confirmed that bleaching has its advantages, explaining: "The process plumps your individual hair shafts, often making your hair appear thicker and fuller.
"Furthermore, if you are light-skinned and have thinning hair, bleaching can disguise the contrast between your hair and bare patches of scalp."
Of course, it's important to note that bleach can also cause drying, breakages, and split ends, so ensure any colouring is done by a professional and you incorporate post-dye care.
You can also take a holistic approach when it comes to hair thinning, revamping your lifestyle and diet.
One specialist named three foods that tackle thinning, allowing you to "fight back without fancy treatments".
Before making any dramatic changes, always consult a GP, trichologist, or dermatologist, who can provide expert-approved, tailored advice. This is especially important if you're thinking of investing in a new product or treatment.
