Meet The Hair Loss Detective™
Founded by Trichologist Dr. Leola Anifowoshe-Brown, PhD — educator, author, and the originator of Investigative Trichology™.
Dr. Leola is a trichologist — a specialist in the science of hair and scalp. Her doctorate informs how she thinks; her practice is trichology, and her role is investigative rather than medical.
She became known as The Hair Loss Detective™ for a simple reason: she refuses to treat what she has not first investigated. That instinct became a method, and the method became Investigative Trichology™.
Today she leads our Houston practice, teaches, writes, and continues developing the signature systems — including ResusciStation™ — that shape how our patients are cared for.
