Red light therapy cap
Johnson’s hair care treatment begins with wearing a red light therapy cap every morning for six minutes to simulate hair follicle growth.

“It increases blood flow and also stimulates the activity of hair follicles.”
Johnson said the studies on the treatment’s effectiveness were “pretty good.”
“It’s not the most powerful treatment we do, but it’s still part of the package and all these little things add up,” he explained.
Topical formulation
After using the red light cap, Johnson uses a formulation to simulate hair growth.
