The Institute of Trichologists is making an important change:

Following our recent discussion and vote at our AGM, we are now progressing with our transition from an organisation that is Membership-based to one that is Registrant-based.

This shift will strengthen how we support Trichologists and Patients alike, and aligns us with the Professional Standards Authority (PSA) for Health and Social Care. It places greater emphasis on meeting professional healthcare standards, prioritising public protection, public interest, and safety when practicing as a ‘Registered Trichologist’.

As part of this change:

• All Members of the Institute of Trichologists (MIT) will become Registrants of the Institute of Trichologists (RIT).

• All Associates of the Institute of Trichologists (AIT) will keep their existing title, although some conditions for progression will be updated.

• Fellows of the Institute of Trichologists (FIT) will remain unchanged.

We are excited about this improvement and the benefits it brings to our profession and the public.

For more information, please view or download our information leaflet here.

We would like to invite you to come to one of our online information sessions to hear more about this improvement to your registration. Please click below to register.

The sessions will be recorded and will be available for those who cannot attend the live sessions.

Thank you for your understanding and continued support.
