I haven’t used Alpecin but I saw this recently which is something to bear in mind. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/alpecin-caffeine-shampoo-banned-reduce-hair-loss-advertising-standards-authority-a8276951.html

Hope it helps

I am really surprised your doctor told you to use Head and Shoulders, because it’s so bad for your hair. It’s full of sulfates which can clog and damage the hair follicle, it strips the hair strand of moisture and it can cause breakage and hair loss. There are lots of better shampoo options out there.

Look for shampoos that have peptides and extracts that stimulate hair growth and add thickness to existing hair. Ingredients like niacinamide, pea sprout extract and caffeine are all beneficial to hair growth too.

Also, shampooing everyday is not good for hair as it can strip out the moisture. You hair just doesn’t need washing everyday - once every 2-3 days should be enough to keep hair clean without overwashing it.

Hey everyone

I’m wondering if there is anyone that has seen any improvement in their hair after changing their diet? I know that eating more protein, iron, fatty acids and biotin is meant to improve hair growth and thinning, so I’m wondering if anyone here has seen results from adding more of this into their food?
