Are there really any Hair loss products that do work?

Propecia is effective about forty two percent of the time, but you need a prescription from a doctor to get it. Rogaine works too, but it doesn't help much if you have male-pattern baldness. Rogaine mostly helps if you have a bald spot on the back of your head. Rogaine was the first hair growth drug approved by the FDA.Are there really any Hair loss products that do work?
Propecia, Rogaine, and DHT blockers all can help hair loss. But, the problem with all of these products is three things: first, they are expensive, second, you probably will lose any hair you gain while using them once you stop purchasing them, and third, they have chemical side effects. Thus, the best way to combat hair loss is to take care of your hair from the inside out. It may seem like a clich茅, but it is very true. If you are predisposed to hair loss, live an unhealthy lifestyle, or use traditional drugstore hair products that contain alcohol and sulfates, you can potentially cause hair loss or stunt your hair growth. I am a stylist, and if you follow the tips below, you can grow your hair. Although heredity plays a factor in hair loss and hair growth rates, you do not have to resort to chemicals, hormones, or a hair transplant to stop hair loss, unless it is your last hope and prayer. These tips have worked on several of my clients who have dealt with minor thinning to severe hair loss.





Tip #1: Change your diet.


Increase your intake of proteins. Don't load up on bacon, but load up on fish, eggs, beans, and cheese. Also, don't forget your milk.





Tip # 2: Drink plenty of water


6-8 glasses is a must. 8-12 is even better.





Tip #3: Get your vitamins


Take a B Complex, Fish Oil, and Vitamin E.





Tip #4: Only use an all-natural hair growth or hair thickening shampoos and conditioners





There are several good natural shampoos on the market, such as Aubrey Organics and Giovanni. However, I have used A Double Portion Super Hair Growth Shampoo on my hair loss clients because it is created specifically for hair growth and I have seen substantial results in a matter of month. It is full of hair growth promoting essential oils, sage, rosemary, neem, and aloe. For my clients that used it, their hair got thicker and softer. You can find it online at www.discoverb4a.com.





Tip #5: Place as little heat and chemicals on your hair as possible. No hair coloring please.





Tip #6: Live a stress free life.





Tip #7: Get your blood flowing


Aerobic exercise stimulates blood circulation throughout the entire body, including the scalp. This is important for hair growth. Also, consider massaging your scalp for 5-10 minutes a day with warm olive or coconut oil. It will accentuate your hair growth as well. If you are too lazy to do it, get a significant other to massage your head for you.
