Tone Your Scalp

A healthier scalp means healthier hair. Recondition your scalp with Korres Magnesium and Wheat Proteins Toning Shampoo ($30.00). This shampoo gives scalp cells new energy with an infusion of minerals like calcium, magnesium, manganese and zinc. Hair follicles are encouraged to hang on to your strands, which are fortified with provitamin b5 to increase volume and prevent splitting. The addition of rice and wheat proteins puts an end to breakage, so you can have the fullest, thickest head of hair possible.

More Hair in Less Time

Is your hair losing it’s youthful vitality? Rebuild hair’s density with Frederic Fekkai More Nighttime Follicle Boosting Treatment ($35.00). Patented Niaplex™ technology promotes healthy hair follicles by removing pollutants and build up, increasing oxygenation, and creating a natural barrier for the scalp to improve resilience. This product will help you prevent loss of hair density, or discourage it if you’ve already noticed the problem. Apply directly scalp before bed, and see improvement in 90 days or less!

Mouhatsuryoku Innovate Hair Nourishment Treatment

We’re hearing buzz about Lion Corps. Mouhatsuryoku Innovate Hair Nourishment Treatment. Called “Innovate” for short, the solution purports to conduct its research at the DNA-level, something no other company claims.

Innovate contains cytopurine, which stimulates hair growth promoting signals, and glyceryl pentadecanoate, which amplifies hair growth promoting signals and provides hair growth energy at the same time. So not only do you stimulate hair growth, but you also create a healthy environment for hair to thrive.

Viviscal Hair Nourishment

Another remedy for thinning hair recently attracted our attention. The Viviscal Hair Nourishment system uses AminoMar C, a refined marine protein complex, to thicken and regrow fine and thinning hair.

The system uses vitamins in regular (18%) and extra strength (22%) for women, and 30% for men. It also features Scalp Lotion, Shampoo, and Conditioner.

For best results, Viviscal recommends users take 2 vitamins daily, use the Scalp Lotion every night, and use the Shampoo and Conditioner at least 3 times per week for a minimum of 6 months.

 

React to Reactional Hair Loss

If you are experiencing hair loss due to factors in your life such as stress, fatigue or pregnancy, there is a system designed specifically for you! The Rene Furterer Reactional Thin Hair Program ($122.00) can’t solve those problems, but it can slow the resulting hair loss. Pfaffia® Extract, orange and lavender essential oils and Vitamin PP improve microcirculation, and Hydrolyzed Curbicia Extract and Vitamin B6 control sebum production. The hair bulb is protected with the help of ingredients such as Vitamin A, E and B5. Your scalp will be put back in the right condition to regrow strong, healthy hair.

The kit includes a 1.7 oz Complexe 5, 5.1 oz Forticea Stimulating Shampoo, and eight 0.18 oz vials of RF80, a special nutritive formula designed to enhance the hair that regrows.

Heat-Free Laser Hair Loss Treatment at Home

Treat thinning hair in the privacy of your own home with the HairMax Laser Comb ($545). This product uses “cold” laser technology to stimulate and encourage hair growth. The treatment gives off no heat- it is gentle, painless and most importantly, safe and effective.

The HairMax Laser Comb works progressively over time to help you regrow healthy, strong hair that is less likely to be subject to loss. Improvement may be seen to hair in 8 to 16 weeks for most individuals, with use just three times weekly for 10-15 minutes.

The Skinny on Skinny Hair: Kirkland Minoxidil for Women

Finally…products are available to help fight hair loss for women. Sure, men are freaked out by their own baldness. But it’s usually nothing more than a hand-slap to their egos. For us, hair loss can be truly devastating.

Enter Kirkland Minoxidil for Women, a topical, 2% minoxidil solution. Doctors recommend topical treatments for women for safety reasons, and 2% minoxidil (the max approved by the FDA) is the front-runner in the results category.

If you’re going to use Kirkland Minoxidil or any other topical minoxidil treatment, here’s what you need to know:

1. Topical treatments aren’t effective for a receding hairline or hairline baldness.
2. Once you begin treatment, any hair growth you have will stop once you stop using minoxidil.
3. Do a patch test; topical treatments of any kind can cause allergic reactions. Kirkland Minoxidil for Women, while proven effective, has other ingredients you may be sensitive to (like alcohol).
4. Don’t use more product or more frequently than recommended. You won’t have any better results and you’re in danger of causing more allergic reaction.
5. Do NOT use any topical minoxidil designed for men. Many of them contain 5% minoxidil (not approved or recommended for women).
6. If you have any concerns about hair loss, see your doctor.
