Hair loss shampoosHair Loss Shampoos: I’m Gonna Wash that Problem Right Out of My Head There are literally hundreds of shampoos available on the retail market, purporting to help hair loss sufferers. Generally speaking, these products do not help create new hair growth, but, rather, rely on volumizing existing so that it looks fuller and thicker. Other products, to include mousse, are sold separately, and also purport to make hair fuller and thicker. Laboratory tests actually show swelling of the hair shaft with these products, as a temporary relief from thinning hair. A few shampoos state that they may assist in hair regrowth and are targeted primarily to men. These contain the ingredient aminehil, also used in some re-growth products. Research studies thus far have not shown any significant efficacy of these products. Sufferers of hair loss, both male and female, should follow a few simple tips when selecting shampoos. 1. Choose less harsh shampoo, particularly those which do not contain surfactant, a lathering booster. Harsh shampoos can create itchy scaly scalps and increase the amount of hair loss. 2. Use conditioners to help de-tangle hair before combing or brushing. Combing through tangles will pull more hair out. 3. Shampoo less often if you can. This will leave natural oils on your scalp and in follicles and thus decelerate loss a bit. Because there is so much research on hair loss, it is feasible that a hair growth shampoo may one day be available. Until that time though, Pacific Naturals has created a highly effective hair regrowth product called Provillus. Provillus is an oral supplement, which works to block DHT, a form of testosterone that is responsible for 95 percent of hair loss. It also works to stimulate the scalp and bring dead follicles back to life. You can use Provillus as a preventative tool, starting the program before hair loss becomes severe, or you can use it after DHT has already begun to take hold of your hair and scalp. You can get it at www.provillus.com. For more information visit:  |
