Hair growth shampoo

What is hair loss?

Hair loss can appear in both men and women. Hair loss among men often coincides with baldness. Genetics, certain medications, nutrient deficiencies, illnesses and stress can promote this baldness and among some men bald patches appear.

Hair loss in women also appears often in shedding. When oestrogen and progesterone levels fall, the hair might become thinner and hair follicles can shrink. The hair starts to grow more slowly and falls out more easily in these cases. A solution for both men and women in hair loss is a hair growth shampoo.
