Her latest qualification further supports her belief that hair professionals have an increasingly important role to play in recognising hair and scalp concerns, understanding when specialist intervention may be needed and providing clients with informed, compassionate guidance.
Bridgeen comments: "Hair loss is about so much more than hair. It can have a profound impact on someone's confidence, identity and wellbeing, which is why I believe it's so important that we continue to develop our knowledge and understanding of the science behind it.
“Completing this qualification with UCD School of Medicine has been an important personal and professional achievement. I'm passionate about bringing together the worlds of hairdressing and healthcare, and helping hair professionals feel more confident when supporting clients experiencing hair loss or scalp concerns. Education is such a powerful tool, and the more we understand, the better equipped we are to make a meaningful difference to the people sitting in our chairs."
