Welcome to the new Hair Authority/International Trichology Congress (ITC) Trichology Hub.

The ITC was formed in 2017 as an education platform for professionals involved in ‘hair’. We realized the topic of Hair science is multi-disciplinary and we are best served when there is cross-talks and information between all aspects.
Trichologists, Hair restoration surgeons, Dermatologists, Hair Biologists, Cosmetic Chemists and Aestheticians all have parts to play in the conversation about hair, our aim has always been to be informative, interesting, and inclusive.
Hair and hair loss has always been a ‘hot topic’. It is emotional, complex, and often misinterpreted. To this end, the International Trichology Congress and International Hair Authority have joined forces to bring you top level information, opinions, insights from industry leaders and researchers.
Please bookmark this page and sign up to the Hair Authority Newsletter as it will have a designated Trichology section for all the latest news where we will share relevant articles and interviews and important medical and trichological news as well as where to find relevant education courses and CPD events throughout the world.
We welcome contributions from any individual, society or institution so please contact us with any ideas, stories, and events you believe are of interest to the wider trichological community.
Stay safe,
Iain & Bessam
We have the pleasure to include our next speaker, Dr Jeff Donovan who will be speaking on Dermal Papillae: An Expanding Array of Mechanisms that Impair Their Ability to Act as ‘Master Controller’
