How Does Mori Work?
Discover the Science Behind Mori: Understanding Female Hair Loss and Regrowth
In order to understand how Mori helps restore fuller, healthier hair, it’s important to first understand the root causes of female hair loss, thinning, and shedding.
The Female Hair Cycle: From Youthful Growth to Age-Related Changes
Every four to six years, your hair naturally enters a new life cycle. In younger years, the hair roots (dermal papillae) are rich in growth signals like mRNA 33 and IGF-1, supporting thick, healthy strands.
But as women age, hormonal changes such as reduced estrogen levels can disrupt this cycle. The result? Slower growth, weaker roots, and visible thinning. Especially around the crown or part line.
DHT and how It Triggers Thinning and Follicle Shrinkage
For many women, elevated DHT levels (often linked to hormonal changes) can silently trigger excessive shedding and inflammation.
Over time, this can shrink the hair follicles, especially around the part line or temples, leading to thinner, weaker strands. If left unaddressed, these follicles may stop producing hair altogether.
How Our Serum Supports Women’s Hair Growth: Better Circulation & Protein Activation
Many women experience thinning hair because their follicles become inactive or “closed off.” Our serum addresses this directly: powerful plant-based ingredients like saw palmetto (Serenoa), ginseng root, GHK-Cu, and baicalensis root extract work together to open the pores, boost circulation, and reawaken those follicles.
But we don’t block DHT entirely. And that’s important. DHT plays a role in libido and hormonal balance, especially in women. Instead, our formula gently reduces DHT’s negative effects on the scalp without disrupting your natural hormones.
Most products stop here. We go further by nourishing your hair at the root with proteins your follicles actually need to grow stronger strands. GHK-Cu is a key ingredient that protects cells, supports signaling in the follicle, and helps activate important growth factors like IGF-1 (a protein closely linked to healthy, visible regrowth).
How IGF-1 Supports Stronger, Fuller Hair
1. Activates New Hair Growth:
IGF-1 helps “wake up” dormant hair follicles by stimulating cell activity in the growth phase (anagen). This promotes the natural regrowth of new, healthy strands.
2. Balances the Hair Cycle:
It helps your follicles transition smoothly from resting (telogen) to active growth (anagen), so your hair keeps growing in a regular, healthy rhythm. Especially important for women experiencing hormonal shifts.
3. Strengthens the Hair Root:
IGF-1 helps maintain the structure of each hair follicle, keeping the roots strong and stable. This helps prevent breakage and supports long-term growth.
4. Protects Follicle Health:
By preventing early cell death in the hair follicle, IGF-1 helps your follicles stay alive and functional, creating the ideal environment for thicker, fuller hair over time.
