CurrentBody Skin LED Hair Regrowth Device Review – Does Red Light Therapy Really Work for Hair Loss?

I am a huge fan of Current Body LED Masks and I also adore the Sauna Blanket, which has so many plus points to using.  For the past few months, I have been lucky enough to be using the Current Body Skin LED Hair Regrowth Device.

The Current Body Skin LED Hair Regrowth Device is an FDA-cleared, at-home helmet that uses red light therapy (approximately 620–660 nm) to energize hair follicles, improve scalp circulation, help counter DHT, and prolong the growth phase of hair. It’s designed for both men and women dealing with thinning or hereditary hair loss, with many users reporting thicker, fuller hair after several months of consistent 10-minute daily sessions. For me, hair loss has been something I've suffered more with since having Covid and whilst it is usual to use 50-100 hairs a day, factors such as stress, or hormonal changes can exacerbate the issue. So would this device work for me?

You only need to use this device for ten minutes a day, so whether you are cooking dinner, relaxing, watching TV or even getting ready for bed, as long as your hair and scalp are clean, you are good to go.

The device, as you can see is like a helmet with two headphones attached to it. Comfy to wear, adjustable, though you will need to order the right size, you can pair it with your Bluetooth and even listen to music, a podcast, an eBook or you can do none of those. Once the device is in place, you switch it on and the Red LED Lights come on (remember to charge the device before using), once the lights are on, your device is working its magic. It doesn't get hot, burn your head and I've personally not found the experience of using it difficult.

Does red light therapy work for hair loss? 

The CurrentBody Skin LED Hair Regrowth Device uses FDA-cleared red light therapy to energize hair follicles, improve scalp circulation, and boost density. In just 10 minutes a day, it helps reduce shedding and support healthy, fuller hair growth at home.

What Is the CurrentBody Skin LED Hair Regrowth Device?

The CurrentBody LED Hair Growth Helmet is a hands-free, at-home solution for thinning hair. Using 120 medical-grade LEDs, it covers the entire scalp with low-level light therapy (LLLT) in the 620–660 nm range. Each session takes just 10 minutes, and the device even includes Bluetooth headphones for added convenience.

The Science: How Red Light Therapy Works for Hair Loss

The science behind LED hair regrowth is fascinating:

• Cellular Boost: Red light stimulates mitochondria in cells, increasing ATP (energy) production and reactivating dormant follicles.
• Improved Circulation: It enhances scalp blood flow, delivering oxygen and nutrients directly to hair roots.
• Extended Growth Phase: Red light therapy prolongs the anagen (growth) phase, keeping hair growing stronger for longer.
• DHT Reduction: Some evidence suggests it may lower dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone linked to hair follicle shrinkage.

Clinical Results: Does It Really Work?

• Up to 123% increase in hair count within 12 weeks.
• 26.3% more active follicles per cm² after 16 weeks.
• Independent trials show a 33% increase in hair density.

Most users notice reduced shedding after 4–6 weeks, with visible improvements around the 3-month mark.

My Experience with the CurrentBody LED Hair Growth Helmet

I love that it only takes about ten minutes a day, which makes it incredibly easy to incorporate into my routine. The hands-free design with silicone padding is surprisingly comfortable, and after about five weeks I’ve noticed a real reduction in shedding. The overall look and feel are also impressive—sleek, modern, and very much in the realm of luxury beauty tech.

The main drawback is the price, which sits at around £650 but using my code RACHEL does get your a discount. The most important thing is that it does require consistent daily use to see the best results, and even then the improvements come gradually, usually becoming noticeable after 12 to 16 weeks.  Time is key as is being dedicated to using it to get those results, once you start to see those wipsy bits of hair appear, you suddenly realise just why frequent daily use is so important.

Who Should Use It?

The CurrentBody Skin LED Hair Regrowth Device is best for:

• Men and women with thinning hair or early-stage hair loss.
• People with androgenetic alopecia (pattern baldness).
• Anyone looking for a non-invasive, drug-free treatment.

Final Verdict – Is the CurrentBody LED Hair Regrowth Helmet Worth It?

If you’re looking for a science-backed, at-home solution to thinning hair, this device is a smart investment. With consistent use, it improves density, reduces shedding, and supports long-term scalp health. Results take time, but the payoff is worth it.

Beauty Tip: Pair this helmet with a gentle scalp serum or minoxidil for a power-duo approach to hair regrowth.

Valentine's Day blogger Secret Swap

As you read this post, I and my hubby will be either on the plane or just landed in Amsterdam, but Happy Valentines Day!

I took part in a bloggers secret valentines swap organised by xx and xx and posted my package off to its recipient last weekend, so hopefully you have got it and like it, though you won't know it was me that sent it!

My package has arrived and knowing I was going to be away, I wrote this post a few days ago so that it could go live on the day itself. I have no idea who my swap partner was, but it is always exciting to get a box full of products right? Well this is what was in my beautifully packaged swap box:

How cute are those love hearts and the card, I love pugs I find them so cute and I am particularly impressed and moved that my swappee took the time to look for a card with cats on, knowing that I have 3 of them.  Thank you.

So we have quite a lot of products here and I haven't tried any of them - whoever picked this box has clearly looked at my blog because the first thing that caught my eye was this beautiful tub of coconut and cream body butter from I Love Cosmetics and it was actually on a list of things I wanted to try because I love things scented with coconut.

Then we have Maybelline Baby Lips in Hydrate.  Now I know some people are not a fan of these, but I really like them and find them so handy to have in my handbag, desk draw or on my bedside table and this particular one I have yet to try.  It states that it will give 8 hours worth of moisture and in this weather, I definitely need it!

Argan oil treatment for the hair comes next and it has a Moroccan Argan oil extract to give an intense hydrating treatment to rejuvenate and repair your hair leaving it shiny, smooth and healthy.  Again, not a product I have tried and am looking forward to giving it a whirl to see how my hair copes with it.

Then we have some make-up products from a brand called Catrice whom I have read about on other peoples blogs but have never come across them myself.  There is a colour changing lipstick which says it is a lip glow, too look at it, I was expecting to have bright Oompa Loompa lips, but it actually gives my lips a bit of a glossy look to them.  Then comes an eye palettes with 4 different shades called Never Let Me ago and this is truly stunning, I love all of the shades.

The next products is from Essence - Oz the great and powerful in shade 01 Beware of the Wicked Witch - are you trying to tell me something blogger swapper??  This is a cream blush, again not a product I have used before, though cream blushes seem to be a popular item across the blogger sphere and I am looking forward to giving this a go. It comes with a pump dispenser and you only need a really small amount on your hand, brush or whatever you choose to use to apply to your cheeks.

Barry M comes next with a lipgloss and in the tube it looks as though it is a candy floss pink colour and when you open the tube, it smells wonderfully sweet of strawberries and it is a lovely shade of pink - pics needed

Then I have three samples - Melvita Narcissus which look this up!!! Followed by Nuxe anti-fatigue moisturising cream which is for dry skin and finally an eye contour  anti-ageing and radiance cream from Avene which I am also looking forward to trying.

Last but no means least a bar of Galaxy Cookie a crumble chocolate which is just so yummy and I could quite easily east the whole bar to myself and two packets of Love a heart sweets which I haven't come across in years, so I am looking forward to seeing what each one has to say on it when it comes to eating them.
