Lorna Luxe Celebrates Hair Progress After Salon Visit

Lorna Luxe shared a hair update during a visit to her salon on Friday, after previously revealing her androgenetic alopecia diagnosis.

The influencer, 43, who has been open about her hair struggles in the past, posted a video clip for her followers as she caught up with her hairdresser, admitting she is 'so chuffed' with how her root density has improved.

Showing off her new growth, she said: 'I've got to be honest. The density of this bit here is way better. I feel like i've done my homework, I feel like I've done all the right things. 

She added: 'But I am genuinely, like, when I put my hands through my hair it just feels a bit more fuller here.' 

Alongside the clip, she wrote: 'It's a bit of a journey is androgenic alopecia as so many factors affect it, but all things considered the density in the root has improved no end I'm so chuffed.' 

Androgenetic alopecia, or pattern hair loss, is a common hereditary form of hair loss caused by genetic factors and androgen hormones, most notably DHT.

It involves a progressive shrinking of hair follicles, leading to a receding hairline and crown thinning in men, and a diffuse thinning of the crown in women, according to Alopecia UK.  

Last year, Lorna opened up to HELLO! about overcoming her hair struggles in her 40s.

Speaking about how she has managed her hair over the years, the 43-year-old explained: 'Up until five or so years ago, I treated my hair like an afterthought and something I was deeply embarrassed of. 

'I have androgenic alopecia, which is gradual hair thinning, so rather than take care of the hair I had [left], I preferred to tie it up and ignore it.' 

She added: 'In lockdown, I had the time to tackle the problem head-on, and so I went to a trichologist, and that’s really where my hair story begins.' 

Elsewhere in the interview, Lorna revealed she is now 'big on supplements' and has noticed a tangible difference since taking them. 

She also praised her Hydra Bond Hydrating Masque, which retails for £35, explaining she uses it regularly to keep her hair feeling 'strong and robust'. 

The product was created as part of her minimalist brand, 98 Beauty. 

Lorna also shared that many of her hair concerns began in her 20s, admitting she has been working 'overtime' ever since to improve its condition. 

She advised others to 'hair mask the heck' out of their hair, adding that hydration is key to keeping it strong and healthy at any age. 

It comes days after Lorna revealed she feels 'so much happier' in her new £2m rental home after she was forced to leave her last place of residence unexpectedly.

The influencer lived in the famous £2.5million Ghost House with her late husband John, but they had to vacate the property last year when it flooded.

They bought the property in 2023, and John and Lorna had been excitedly talking about how they were going to redesign the 'his and hers' bathrooms in their home, but John sadly died before they could return.

Lorna's new minimalist property was also designed by BPN Architects, the same team behind the couple's Warwickshire mansion. 

The influencer has shown off the modern home on social media with glass walls and chic furnishings.

In a post to her Instagram Stories on Tuesday inside the house, Lorna wrote: 'It's safe to say I feel so much happier in this home than the last place... all this light is doing my mood the world of good.'
