Melissa Sharkevich - A
Personal Approach to
Hair Restoration
Helping women understand changes in their hair and scalp through personalized assessments, advanced treatments, and confidence-restoring solutions.
Losing your hair can make you feel disconnected from yourself, especially when you do not understand why it is happening.
Hair loss may be connected to changes involving hormones, stress, nutrition, thyroid health, inflammation, or other factors within the body. Melissa helps you take a deeper look at what may be contributing so you can move forward with more clarity, support, and a plan created around you.
Meet Melissa Sharkevich
Experience behind the chair. A deeper understanding of hair loss.
Melissa Sharkevich is a Certified Hair Loss Practitioner, IBE Elite Artist, educator, and the founder of Mane & Co. Hair Lounge. After beginning her career in 2005, Melissa spent years helping women transform their hair through customized color and extensions.
Her work eventually revealed a much deeper need. Many women were not simply looking for longer or fuller hair. They were experiencing thinning, shedding, scalp concerns, and a loss of confidence without knowing where to turn.
Today, Melissa combines her experience as a stylist with advanced hair and scalp assessments, restorative treatments, and personalized hair replacement solutions. Her purpose is not to push every client toward the same service. It is to help each woman understand her options and find the solution that makes sense for her.

Your First Visit, Step By Step
Every new client begins with a private Hair & Scalp Consultation. You do not need to know which test, treatment, or hair solution you need before coming in. Melissa will guide you through the process, explain what she is looking at, and help you understand what the information may mean for your next steps.
1
Beacon AI Hair & Scalp Imaging-
Melissa begins by taking detailed images of different areas of your scalp. The imaging allows her to see more than what is visible in the mirror, including changes in density, spacing between follicles, and areas where the hair may be thinning.
These images also create a visual baseline. If you begin a treatment plan, Melissa can capture new images over time and compare them with your first visit to monitor changes more clearly.
What to expect: This part is noninvasive and does not hurt. Melissa will section your hair and place the imaging device against different areas of your scalp while you view and discuss the images together.

CRLAB TricoTest®-
Next, Melissa takes a closer look at the condition of your hair and scalp using specialized equipment, including a microcamera and tools that measure factors such as sebum, hydration, and pH. This can help reveal buildup, excess oil, dryness, irritation, and other imbalances that may be affecting the scalp environment. CRLAB describes the TricoTest as a thorough analysis using microcameras and specialized measurement equipment.
Melissa will also talk with you about your health history, medications, nutrition, stress, lifestyle, family history, and when you first noticed changes. This helps her look beyond the surface and consider possible internal and external factors that may be contributing to your concerns.
What to expect: The TricoTest is also noninvasive. You will be able to see magnified images of your hair and scalp while Melissa explains what she is observing in everyday language.

Personalized Next Steps-
Once the assessments are complete, Melissa brings the information together and explains what she found. She will walk you through any visible concerns, answer your questions, and discuss whether additional testing or medical evaluation may be helpful.
Your recommendations may include scalp therapy, Fusion 8 Plasma Therapy, at-home scalp care, an Epigenetic Hair Test, functional blood testing through an appropriate provider, or a confidence-restoring solution such as extensions, a topper, a wig, or a CNC hair prosthetic. Not every client will need every service.
What to expect: You will leave with a clearer understanding of your hair and scalp, the factors Melissa believes may be worth exploring, and a personalized plan for what to do next. If something requires diagnosis or medical treatment, Melissa will recommend following up with an appropriate licensed healthcare provider.
You do not need to have the answers before your appointment. That is what the consultation is for. Melissa will explain each step, answer your questions, and help you understand your options without pressure.

Restoring the fullness you miss without losing what makes your hair feel like you.
While Melissa works to understand what may be contributing to your hair loss, she also understands that you want to feel confident in your hair now. She offers several personalized solutions to restore the appearance of fullness throughout the process, beginning with IBE extensions when the natural hair can safely support them.
Featured Solution
Invisible Bead Extensions
IBE extensions can be a beautiful solution for women experiencing mild thinning, reduced density, or changes in fullness. Melissa customizes every installation around your natural hair, desired result, and long-term hair health to create added volume that looks seamless and feels comfortable.
As an IBE Elite Artist, Melissa considers more than the finished appearance. Before recommending extensions, she evaluates whether your natural hair can safely support them and creates a personalized plan for installation, maintenance, color, and at-home care.
