With the growing awareness
of both men and women about hair loss, there has been a rise in the
popularity of hair loss shampoo products. In fact, the use of hair loss
shampoo products has become so popular, the choice of which product to
buy can be as complicated as choosing just a regular shampoo product.
Special hair loss shampoo products are though more expensive than just
buying a regular shampoo, so is there any substance to their claims? If
the cause of your hair loss has been traced back to problems in the
scalp area or a hormonal imbalance, then they could be a solution for
you.
If your scalp is not washed regularly and kept clean, there can be a
build up of chemicals on the surface. When your hair naturally falls
out, this build up of chemicals can prevent new hair growth from
penetrating through the surface. If your hair does manage to penetrate,
the new growth tends to be somewhat weaker and more prone to falling
out. Hence hair loss results.
Washing your hair using a mild shampoo on a regular basis and ensuring
that you thoroughly rinse away any residue is enough for most of us to
stop the protein build up on your scalp. The act of massaging the scalp
during shampooing also acts as a stimulant for the blood circulation to
the hair follicles, so helping to promote new hair growth.
So to pre-empt your next question, if regular shampoos do all of this,
why use a special hair loss shampoo? If your hair loss is caused by
your hormones, the drugs contained in these products work with your
body to bring your hormones back into balance. As a result of
suppressing certain hormones that prevent hair growth, your hair should
be able to grow back again. Hair loss shampoo will also keep your scalp
clean and healthy by having the same benefits as using a regular
shampoo.
Naturally, any product that affects your hormone balances can cause
side effects, and you should be fully aware of these before starting
treatment. But if you are interested, the hair loss shampoo products
that tend to work the best are the ones containing either the chemical
Rogaine or Propecia. (Both of these drugs were approved for use by the
FDA back in 2001.)
However, before buying one of the hair loss shampoo products, I would
advise to consult a medical professional to ensure that the cause of
your hair loss is hormonal. If it isn’t then it is unlikely that these
products will work for you.
