Trichology by Shawn

Trichology by Shawn is a scalp and hair wellness practice. The Montrose location is at Chameleon Salon on Montrose Avenue and is by appointment only, reached at (818) 790-9858. The Newport Beach location is at Primary Care 4 Hair, where the practice works alongside a physician, Dr. Bryan C. Doonan, and is reached at (949) 630-2275. Scalp analysis and treatment planning can be done at either location. The business serves Montrose, La Crescenta, Glendale, Pasadena, Costa Mesa and Irvine, with Montrose drawing clients from the Crescenta Valley and foothill communities and Newport Beach drawing clients from across Orange County.

A visit typically starts with an in-depth examination of the scalp and hair using a trichoscope, looking for the causes of thinning, shedding, buildup and irritation. From there the practice explains daily care habits, washing routines, product choices and lifestyle factors that affect hair health. A personalized plan is built from the analysis and includes ongoing follow-ups, with progress checked against regular visits as the scalp and hair change. Pricing for eyebrow hair restoration, scalp analysis and other services is quoted based on the service and the client's needs.

Beyond core consultations, the practice offers several specialized options. TED Hair Restoration is a needle-free treatment using acoustic waves and gentle air pressure to carry a formula of growth factors, peptides and nutrients into the scalp; it is offered at the Newport Beach location only and has no downtime. Eyebrow hair restoration is a non-invasive series of sessions over several months using a hair support serum, with no needles, no pigment and no downtime; the business notes it is not microblading or a tattoo. Clients in Montrose who need advanced restoration are referred to trusted medical partners.

The salon lists credentials from the American Medical Certification Association and trichology training from the US Trichology Institute. Its medical-grade Universkin skincare service is arranged through Newport Beach. According to the business, the line was created by physicians and is used by clinicians in several dozen countries.

The practice starts by identifying the root cause through a trichoscope analysis and client education before recommending any plan, then chooses products to match what the analysis shows and refers to medical providers when advanced restoration is appropriate.
