My 5 Recommendations for Healthy Hair GrowthBased on both research and personal experience with reversing male pattern baldness, I have developed these five recommendations for healthy hair growth:1. Use a shampoo and conditioner which contain no petrochemicals such as lauryl sulf 2. Use a shampoo that contains Chinese herbs such as he shou wu, with a tradition of promoting hair growth. 3. If your public water supply uses chlorine to kill bacteria, use a shower water filter to reduce chlorine exposure on your scalp (and lungs). 4. Take a robust multivitamin containing antioxidants and ginkgo biloba to promote general health and micro-circulation. 5. Take MSM to provide sulfur which promotes hair growth from within. For many men and women, the loss of their hair is a devastating sign of encroaching old age. Male pattern baldness affects 40 million adult males in the United States. But approximately 20 million American women also suffer from some type of hair loss. The causes vary widely - genetics, stress, diet and environmental pollutants. And the solutions are just as plentiful. One thing is clear. Mainstream shampoos and conditioners that claim to be helpful to your hair and s The skin and the scalp are body organs, actually the largest organ in the body. They absorb the chemicals that are applied to it, which can either have positive or negative effects. The effects these hair chemicals can have on healthy hair growth are profound. Peter Lamas, founder of Lamas Beauty International and a hair care professional for more than 40 years says "Your skin is basically like a sponge - it absorbs all kinds of things, both good and bad. If you look at the ingredients of mainstream shampoos and the ingredients of your dishwasher detergent, they're essentially the same." The main difference between a mainstream and an all-natural product is that you're not using a harsh detergent. Most mainstream products are based on sodium lauryl sulfate or a petrochemical detergent that strips the hair of its natural oils. These are the same things you would use to clean industrial equipment. But there are natural alternatives that can provide all of the cleansing benefits mainstream products claim to have, as well as encourage healthy hair growth - even slowing the process of hair loss. As long as you have hair in the follicle and it hasn't completely come out, you can use ingredients that will help to stimulate hair growth. However there is no miracle cure for hair loss. There are no ingredients that can regrow hair, however, natural ingredients will promote hair growth. He shou wu is a Chinese herb used by the Chinese for years. There are not many clinical studies on he shou wu, especially in English, however there is a history of clinical experience naming the positive effects on people suffering from hair loss in China for hundreds of years. Lamas Beauty's Chinese Herb Hair and Scalp Stimulating Shampoo contains he shou wu, as well as a host of other Chinese herbs that have been used traditionally to encourage healthy hair growth. "The Chinese herbs can get rid of fungus and dandruff and can help hair grow back, if there's a surviving hair follicle," Lamas says. "In order to have the healthiest hair, you need good blood circulation in your scalp and oxygen available. When your scalp is too dry or tight and starts to shed, that's because you're not getting enough oxygen and blood circulation to the roots. The herbs and certain amino acids we use stimulate the circulation system and in turn strengthen the roots of your hair. We've had a lot of testimonials from customers telling us that their hair has become thicker and healthier after they started using the product, which is great because that's exactly what I wanted to do." Stop daily exposure of your hair and scalp to Chlorine gas The primary purpose of a shower water filter is to remove chlorine from the shower. Chlorine is highly effective in killing bacteria, germs and other microorganisms to make public water supplies safe to drink. But you don't necessarily want chlorine to continue killing living organisms in your lungs, on your skin and on your children's skin and in their lungs. Thus a shower water filter will remove chlorine at the showerhead, before you fill the air in your bathroom with hot chlorinated water mist. Chlorine is used for water disinfection and for treatment of sewage effluent. Chlorine is also used to disinfect equipment and utensils in beverage and food processing plants, and chlorine is used as an intermediate in the manufacture of a number of organic products such as antifreeze, rubber, cleaning agents, and pharmaceuticals. Supplement with MSM Those subjects supplemented with MSM showed significant improvement in hair health, while those on placebo showed either no change, or only slight changes after 6 weeks. The most marked changes were measured in hair length and hair brilliance. The women showed the better results in hair growth, brilliance, and thickness of hair fibers. My Results Male pattern baldness runs in my family. My father, and both my grandfathers lost most of their hair in their 40's to 50's. In my 40's I had developed a bald spot about the size of a baseball on the top of my head. I tried a number of other potions (no prescription drugs though), and they had very little effect. After being on this protocol for about a year, my bald spot has filled in with maybe 30% of the hair that used to be there. It seems that it is as important what you don't expose your scalp to as it is to nourish your hair and scalp. Summary Just as you have likely been rubbing petrochemicals on your scalp and running dilute chlorine on it for years, it takes a long time to reverse hair loss. Expect to continue on this protocol for 6 months before you see a noticeable difference. Then continue to follow the protocol for increasing benefits.
