If you or a loved one are experiencing hair loss, you must act NOW to stop it. My name is Nanette and as a practicing Herbalogist, I see many, many cases involving men, women and children.
Know this, you are not alone. More than half of the men and women in the United States experience hair loss with about 30% of these by age 30 years.
Although there are no definitive answers as to what causes a person to lose their hair, there are a number of general factors to consider.
1) Stress can release excessive hormones that may interrupt hair growth. Thyroid mal-function can also do this.
2) Shampoos and other
hair products
containing the chemicals PHTHALATES, BETAINE and SODIUM LAURYL SULFATE can cause a red, drying rash on your scalp, around the eyes and along the neck, with flaking, peeling, itching and eventual loss of hair. (The federal government doesn't limit their use NOR are they required to be listed on the bottle!!)
3) Dietary allergies can have a powerful effect on the daily functioning of the scalp.
4) Internal virus, bacteria, or general illness can upset scalp balance.
5) Scalp cells that become packed and clogged eventually kill the hair follicle.
Many customers ask me over and over again, "What can I do for my hair loss?"
Here is my 2 step hair treatment that has literally helped 1000's:
Step 1) First, apply a highly therapeutic scalp cream
at night before bedtime by rubbing it into the parts of the scalp affected allowing it to absorb overnight.
It should be plant based and contains
urea
. This type of special cream can then penetrate the
7 layers of the thicker scalp skin
and unpack sticky, dead cells that are suffocating your hair follicle that results in loss of hair.
Step 2) Then following this with the right shampoo is critically important. Stay away from highly commercialized and highly advertised products with chemical filled ingredients.
I believe in using only naturally made products made with herbal ingredients. I have seen time and time again that using an effective shampoo is critically important.
Three highly effective ingredients in an herbal shampoo should include tea tree oil, shea butter and urea. These three ingredients provide a powerful formula to relieving dry scalp symptoms.
Here's why:
Tea Tree Oil: Tea Tree Oil has been used for many, many years by people around the world for its' extraordinary medicinal qualities. It has a very helpful restorative effect on skin infections and scalp disorders of every kind.
Shea Butter: This thick, rich butter has a soothing, moisturizing and protecting effect.
Shea butter
also helps cell regeneration and capillary circulation.
Urea: Has been medically proven in various clinical studies to have superior anti-fungal and anti-microbial properties that helps promote fast healing of dry, cracked, split skin, eczema, psoriasis, rashes, acne as well as dry, itchy, flaky scalp as well as adding much needed moisture.
A natural shampoo doesn't disturb the natural PH of the hair & scalp like most commercial shampoos do. It should be so gentle and mild that it can even be used on babies and small children and be safe for the whole family.
Continue with this 2 step program with consistency. When your hair loss is resolved, you can simply continue with just the shampoo to KEEP your scalp healthy and PH balanced.
Remember, plan to be consistent for your good results! If you have a "hit or miss" attitude your results may be delayed or hindered all together.
I came to you with a completely shaven head because I was loosing my hair so fast I wanted to hide it. Shaving it all off seemed to be the only thing I could do. After taking your advise and following the 2 part program you recommended, my hair is starting to grow back. I have since let all of my hair grow in and I'm very grateful for your help.
