According to Healthline, “If you have a genetic predisposition towards hair loss, you can’t really prevent it completely. However, many nutritional deficiencies are tied to you losing your hair, and fixing up your diet will stop hair loss caused by vitamin deficiencies. Even if the problem is genetic, you can give your hairline a fighting chance, and slow your hair loss down.
Vitamins such as Vitamin A (found in milk, eggs, and yogurt), B-Vitamins (whole grains, almonds, meat, fish, leafy greens), Vitamin C (citrus), as well as minerals, like iron (found in clams, eggs, red meat) and zinc (spinach, beef, lentils) can make your hair stronger and nicer. Our products are all vegan and contain no animal products.
There are a lot of hair loss treatments and products out there that combine these vitamins and boost your system to strengthen the hair follicles and enhance growth.”
With so many products and treatments available it’s hard to know which is right for you. One of the more popular treatments is Rogaine and from as stated by Healthline, “While Rogaine has been proven to be effective in regrowing hair, there is a catch. Rogaine only works in people with a hereditary form of hair loss at the top and back of the scalp. There’s a chance it may not work for you at all.
If it does work for you, you likely won’t grow all of your hair back. You also have to use it continuously if you want to maintain your results.”
Some people have found more sustainable growth with products such as 1922 made by Keune.
1922 combines ingredients such as:
- Creatine to rebuild and reinforce hair.
- Pro-vitamin B5 which thickens hair
- Vitamin H to improve keratine structure.
- Natural peppermint extracts, oil and menthol which refresh and stimulate the scalp.
