My Story

It’s taken over 30 years (three long decades) to learn and research the issues with hair loss. I’m not a doctor, but with my story, I learned enough to save my own life, and at this point, I consider myself an expert in my trade and a HairDoc.

Growing up in rural Pennsylvania in Amish country with parents who were extremely conservative Christian and my mom swears by roots, fruits, nuts, and the Bible. The whole time, I dreamed of being a superstar and moving to Hollywood so I could take care of my parents and help people.

On Cancer

HairDoc TK’s own claim · not independently verified · owner reviewCancer, being the number one terminal illness, is not the only disease that causes hair loss issues. I encourage any and all sufferers to band together to battle these diseases, and I have created a community directory and a 5013c for these reasons so I can continue to help educate MORE people on proper hair health and hair restoration.

From the start of my career at 18, I have understood that MILLIONS of people have un-natural hair-loss due to autoimmune disease, nutritional deficiencies, and environmental toxins, as I personally know first hand about hair-loss and cancer, and the devastating effect it has had. In the process, I was able to complete exhaustive research into alternative methods to revitalize and grow back hair and restore health, holistically.
