Hi, here is a thread that may be useful to your Mom x
losing my hair

Hi and Jonathon has a lot of knowledge of hair loss and heres what he recommends for someone else who has thinning hair

Hello friend !
I have a problem about the mine hair .My hair is so oily especially in
summer so tell me that what is most suitable shampoo or conditioner for mine hair.

I've looked into this thank you. A lot of people are selling the Nioxin including salons, as for the rejuvx it is not sold anywhere but their website. I've also heard that NANO and Rogain is the best product but Rogain is more in the USA, Thank you for all your answers i will be trying nioxin for my mum, i will let you know in the future how she gets on. Thank you

Hair loss products such as Nioxin and Rejuvx have been developed especially to combat thinning hai and remove the major causes of hairloss.

Hair thickness is a combination of hair diameter and hair density - people can have thin hair but a lot of it or thick hair that is relatively sparce, most people are somewhere in the middle. Your hair is made up of three layers - Cuticle, Cortex and Medulla.

The cuticle is made up of overlaid scales of keratin and the smoother the scales the more it shines. The Cortex is the body and strength of the hair and the inner layer (medulla) is not present in fine hair.

Hair growth has three stages - Growing, shedding and resting. The fact is that all hair is dead and it is the roots and scalp tissue that you need to concentrate on to prevent hairloss. Scientists have discovered that a substance called dyhydrotestosterone (DHT) can affect the blood supply to the hair. It restricts the flow of bloods and results in hair loss.

DHT is the number one cause of hairloss and hair thinning. By removing DHT on a daily basis your hair thickness will improve. Some drugs can extend the hair growth cycle, meaning that you will still continue to loose hair but it will grown longer.

Why am I telling you all of this? Because getting rid of DHT from the scalp will lengthen your hair life cycle and make hair grown longer and thicker. This is where Nioxin and Rejuvx can help, both of these hair products used daily will remove DHT from the scalp.

How do you get DHT on the scalp in the first place ?

Is it from other shampoo's ?

Hi Marlise I think that DHT is a hormone produced naturally within our bodies but sometimes it produces more of it than we want,

so when DHT is removed from the scalp it helps the hair growth by keeping the natural anagen catagen cylcle DHT free and helps to stop the hair falling out x
