James is a news reporter covering the day-to-day stories behind hair loss, from new NHS guidance and public health surveys to the common causes of shedding such as stress, illness and diet. He joined Thicker Thinking after several years on a Yorkshire daily paper, where he covered health, courts and local government. He has a knack for finding the practical question readers most want answered and putting it at the top of the story.
