Avalon Organics – Biotin B-Complex Thickening Shampoo

Price: $30.25

The Biotin B-Complex Shampoo product made by Avalon Organics claims its an effective elixir in nourishing the scalp and hair to add body and shine to thinning, lifeless and fine hair. According to some user testimonials it does effectively thicken hair, adding volume and body to fine and thin hair. It is formulated with natural and organic ingredients like aloe, jojoba and rosemary and other effective ingredients that enhances scalp circulation and in stimulating the hair follicles.

However, there are so many drawback to this product. First of all, since it's organic, the results take time to show so one bottle will not be enough to use. As one user says, she had to use several bottles before her hair actually thickened. If you do your math, although its cheap at its highest price of $9.79, it will only last you for a month. You will have to keep reordering until you don't even notice how much you've spent before you get your desired results.

Second, it smells like a floor cleaner. Unless its okay with you that you have hair smelling like your floors you can go ahead and use this. One consumer suggests ironing your hair in between wax sheets after using the shampoo just to take out the smell. But that's kind of too much effort just to remove an offensive shampoo smell, don't you think?

Ingredients: The product is formulated with jojoba, nourishing aloe, rosemary, wheat protein (for strengthening and smoother hair), and saw palmetto. It is also created with the healing combination of Complex B vitamins – panthenol, niacin and biotin to nourish scalp and hair for added shine and body, enhanced scalp circulation and stimulating hair follicles.

Positives:
• Affordability varies
• Effective in thickening, nourishing, moisturizing hair and scalp
• Best for thinning, fine and lifeless hair
• Cuts down hair fall
• All organic ingredients

Negatives:
• Must be used with the Biotin-B Complex Thickening conditioner for maximum results.
• Contents of the product finishes fast
• According to a consumer the product smells like Pine-Sol Floor cleaner
• Takes time to show results
• Does not work for everyone

Recommendation: In fairness to the product, there really are no overnight miracles when it comes to the treatment of hair loss. Likewise, there is no full proof guarantee that this product works because there are negative testimonials that equal in number to its positive feedbacks. It only shows that the product is not as effective as it promises to be. I'd rather find another product that is more effective, smells better, and delivers what it really claims to be.

La Roche Posay Kerium

Price: $56.00

Many factors (heredity, hormones, nutritional deficiencies, changes of season) can lead to more significant hair loss, which may become permanent throughout the year (in men), or cyclical (in women). However, the severity of persistent hair loss varies from one person to another: therefore, men and women who suffer from persistent hair loss notice that it intensifies during periods of fatigue or overwork.

La Roche Posay Kerium Anti-Hair loss Treatment claims to have a double anti-hair loss action, as well as a growth stimulating effect which aids in the restoration of your hair follicles back to normal.

Directions for Use: One application every day, or at least 3 applications every week for 6 weeks

Ingredients: The double anti-hair loss action of La Roche stems from its two main ingredients, Madecassoside and Aminexil. Madecassoside carries out its anti-hair loss effects due to its anti-inflammatory properties. With its anti-inflammatory effects, it can prevent hair loss that is triggered by micro irritations that occur on the scalp. Without this ingredient, irritations on the scalp would trigger inflammatory actions which will cause hair follicles to be dislodged from the scalp. Aminexil on the other hand, prevents collagen particles that surround each hair follicle from becoming too stiff. This way, it can better accommodate movement of the hair follicles and not cause it to fall off very easily.

Aside from these two main ingredients, La Roche also has arginine which helps prevent hair loss by stimulating better circulation in the scalp. This allows more nutrients and keratin to be delivered to each hair follicle and allowing it to stay in its position for a much longer time. Lastly, La Roche-Posay Thermal Spring water complements the action of Madecassoside as well as provides minerals such as selenium which is known to be an oral supplement in inhibiting hair loss.

Positives:
• States clearly how it can prevent hair loss
• Works in as fast as 6 weeks time
• Fast and easy to use

Negatives:
• A bit expensive compared to other hair loss treatments
• May not be able to prevent hair loss caused by other factors such as increase in DHT levels

Recommendation: PROLONGED CAPILLARY GROWTH IN 6 WEEKS clinically proven under dermatological control. Worth a try.

Hair Cubed ® - Black Hair Building Fiber Spray (Water Proof)

Price:$79.99

Hair loss is a common problem between men and women. Thinning hair, an indication of hair loss adds years to your physical age. Hair Cubed or H3 is a revolutionary product that most doctors recommend as an alternative to hair transplants.

It's very effective and easy to use. You just have to spray and comb the product into clean hair. The hair looks thickened so you can style it into any shape or direction that you want. The product is waterproof and moisture-proof that it won't wash off under the rain.

The product is so appealing to people who are looking for better alternatives to hair transplant. It has gained the attention and patronage of most celebrities such as Ellen DeGeneres.

However, the product does not offer a permanent cure to hair loss because it only lasts until the next time you shampoo. One container will only last you for a month so you will have to reorder again. Another draw back is that you can't use the product with other hair styling products. Although the product is vouched for by hair doctors and celebrities to be very efficient in covering up for thinning hair, it is still not the best cure for hair loss.

Most effective for:

  • Effective against hair loss
  • Has a 30 day money back guarantee
  • Made from organic ingredients
  • Moisture-proof and waterproof
  • Works in all types of thinning hair

Other factors to consider:

  • You have to use it with the sealer to get best results
  • Moderately expensive at $79.99
  • Lasts only until your next shampoo
  • Results are not permanent
  • Best to use only clean hair

Description: Hair Cubed is a concoction of Organic Microfibers that come as a spray aiding those with thinning hair or any type of hair loss problem.

Directions for Use: Spray on to the areas where you want to cover some bald spots

Ingredients: The product contains water, Sodium Laureth Sulfate, PEG-150 Distearate, Cocmidopropyl Betaine, Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamete, Tea Tree Leaf Oil, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract, Menthol, Melissa Officinalis Leaf Extract, matricaria Flower Extract, Geramium Maculatum Extract, Symphytum Officinale Extract, Cymbopogon Schoenanthus Extract, Sage Leaf Extract, Rosa Canina Fruit Extract, Witch Hazel Extract, Hydrolyzed Soy Protein, Achillea Millefolium Extract, Hydrolyzed Soy Protein, Quercus Alba Bark Extract, Tetrasodium EDTA, Citrci Acid, Polysorbate 20, Methylparaben, Methylisothiazolinone, Mthylchloroisothiazolinone, Parfum, Yellow #10 & #5, PC5 and Blue #1.

Recommendation: If you are looking for a permanent cure to your hair loss problem then this is NOT the solution for it. For a quick fix, yes but to say goodbye to hair loss, NO! All this product does is give you a virtual illusion that your hair has thickened and grown back. But that illusion lasts only until the next time you shampoo.

For a more permanent cure then just go for a hair graft. In the long run, the money you will spend constantly buying this product will be tantamount to the same cost for a more lasting relief like a hair transplant.

Jamaican Black Castor Oil Organic Shampoo with Shea Butter

Price:$18.50 – $19.00

This product promises to gently clean and condition your hair. It also promises to restore hair's moisture and promote a healthier scalp. There are no harmful chemicals used in this shampoo because it's 100% natural. With all that being said, does this product deliver what it promises?

While most consumer reviews rave about how great the shampoo feels on their hair and it did wonders in making it soft and manageable, there are some that complained that after shampooing, their hair was hard to untangle and felt heavy on their head.

Most effective for:

  • Affordable at $18
  • 100% natural, no harmful chemicals
  • Restores moisture and effectively promotes healthy scalp
  • Does not contain sulfates
  • Good for all sexes and ag

Other factors to consider:

  • Leaves greasy residue on the hair
  • Causes hair to tangle
  • No guarantees or promos
  • Different prices on different websites
  • No clinical testing to prove it works

Description: A gentle moisturizing shampoo with organic ingredients, Jamaican Black castor Oil. No chemicals whatsoever. You have to remember that Castor oil is a traditional remedy for healing cuts and bruises on skin, it may not be as effective as a hair growth treatment. There are no clinical testings to show that it actually works. Since it is an oil based shampoo, you can definitely expect that although split ends may be covered up, it does not make your hair feel any lighter at all.

Directions for Use: Use like regular shampoo and rinse well

Ingredients: According to this website, the product contains Jamaican Black castor oil, aloe vera, pimento oil, lemon and lavender, shea butter, rosemary extract, organic saponified coconut oil, jojoba, olive, glycerin extract, vegetable gum.

Recommendation:If you are very particular about scents and the looks of your shampoo then this is not for you. As I see it, it may be effective for some as a moisturizer but I really doubt it would give your hair any volume at all. It does not give you any guarantee that you will have thicker hair. And definitely it does not work for everyone, perhaps only for those with hair texture that is compatible with the components of this product.

You will definitely find a better product than this oil based shampoo that will address your hair loss concerns. Why not spend just a little more on another product that is sure to give you the results that you are looking for?

Disclaimer: THIS IS NOT a hair loss product but with its popularity as a “quit smoking drug”, I opted to provide some inside review on this related to hair loss.

Description:Chantix is an effective prescription medicine that is proven to help smokers quit smoking. It is manufactured by Pfizer, one of the famous names in the pharmaceutical company known for its quality medical products.

However, there are also several side effects that this drug can cause. There are some users who claim that they have experienced hair loss and developed bald spots while taking this drug.

Although hair loss is not on the listed side effects of this medicine, the number of users who claim to experience this adverse effect is growing in number. Hair loss is usually caused by the depletion of protein in the body. It can also be a side effect on the combination of drugs that are not compatible.

Since the drug alters some of the normal functions of the body, it can be assumed that it affects the normal levels of the body's nutrients as well. It is also a fact that this drug is not to be combined with other prescription medicines because it can result to adverse effects. A thorough investigation of the user's health condition should be made when hair loss occurs to rule out Chantix as its cause. However, with this common occurrence among its users, it is not unlikely that hair loss is another one of the Chantix side effects. You can check some information on forum discussions.

Other factors to consider:

  • Causes side effects like nausea, constipation, sleep problems, vomiting and gas
  • Not recommended for pregnant women
  • Not to be taken if you are undergoing dialysis or have kidney problems
  • Not to be taken if you have blood vessel problems or heart disease
  • Not to be taken with insulin, blood thinners and asthma medicines
  • Many users claim it causes hair loss and bald spots

Ingredients: The active ingredient of Chantix is Varenicline Tartarate. This ingredient stimulates the nicotine receptors in your brain to reduce the cravings for nicotine. This helps in assisting patients in quitting smoking.

Chantix also contains anhydrous dibasic calcium phosphate, microcrystalline cellulose, croscarmellouse sodium, magnesium stearate, colloidal silicon diocise, Opadry White (for the 0.5mg), Opadry Clear (for both the 0.5mg and 1 mg) and Opadry Blue (for the 1mg).

Recommendation: Think twice before taking this drug when you are quitting smoking. There are so many side effects associated with this drug. Aside from altering the normal processes of your brain and body, it also changes in your aesthetic appearance. Users who experience hair fall or balding spots blame this occurrence on the chemical imbalances caused by Chantix. Even without clinical proof to support this claim, the users themselves attest that their hair started growing back the moment they stopped using this drug.

It is then advisable that due to the numerous adverse effects this drug causes, it is wise to have a health check first with your doctor to determine if this is a suitable treatment for you. If you are currently taking medicines for your pre-existing medical conditions it is best to avoid combining these with Chantix as a preventive method for the side effects.
