Biotin was recomended to me when I bought the Nioxin. It is a supplement for hair, nails and skin. Be careful when purchasing hair products such as Nioxin at places other than hair salons. My hairdresser just told me today that sometimes the products look just like the real deal, but they are not. She said to check the ingredients and make sure they are the same. Nioxin is a specialty hair product and so you want the real deal. If it is the same then go ahead and get it.. It is just that a product that is not formulated the same will not do the same thing.. Just a little something to keep in mind. I also saw it at Costco and may purchase it there next time//

I'm beginning to hate the commercial about how many hairs are you finding in your brush now!!! "BM" (before MRC) I never worried because my hair is so, so thick and it was kind of a blessing how it was a cheap way to thin it out. Now, it's not funny!!! Natural curly hair must have something against being slim! Well, thanks for the info from your hairdressers...and you are so right about buying "fake products". I am going to do some researching to see what I can find out. "Bald and Beautiful" may be a new Reality TV Show for us! Or we could do the "Biggest Hair Loser"! Guess we have to make the most of it....losing fat is so much healthier than losing hair I would think.
Everyone stay warm....it's 1 degree here and windchill 23 below right now. I won't be going to the center today to WI....burrrrrr |
Thanks for all the info. I was going to try a product called Cell Ovation, but think I might try the Nioxin and biotin. I was told the MSM helped with hair and nails, so will compare the info from that to the biotin and see if it is similar. My hair has some wave to it but isn't curly, so that might not matter.
FL - Not that it is any consulation, with the wind chill it is -26 here this morning. Stay warm. I'll be having my hot chocolate hns at lunchtime today. |
There is also a product sold at Sally Beauty supply that is very similar to Nioxin. I just can't remember the name right now.... darn it. I used it as an alternative to the more expensive Nioxin in the past. Had the same problem with hair loss when doing Atkins. Having it again now. <<Heavy Sigh>>
So, I have my bottle of Borage Oil, and Biotin at the ready. I also read somewhere about rosehip oil being good for hair regrowth... haven't tried it though. |
Ugh...been here before! My last time on MRC i lost hair, then got preggo and it grew in nice, now I'm losing it again...Yippeee!
I'd love to blame it on the corti-trim, which i did take and was taking this time, but am not taking it anymore. I'll ahve to see if the hair loss improves while i'm still on plan, but off of the CT. |
I just talked to one of the counselors at my center about hair loss and she said to double my fish or flax seed oil pills. I hope that will help...it's worth a shot. Has anyone gotten any feed back from their center about the hair loss?

I just started to use the Ovation Cell Therapy. I have heard great things and will keep everyone up to date on the prognosis. I started the begining of January and am a habitual dyer... about every other month. Luckily my hair has stayed healthy but I too have noticed a lot more in the drain and my brush. The worst is right after a shower, I comb my hair and then usually pull a good wad off the ends of my wet hair. Very sad but its good to hear its temporary. :)

I have been reading up on this and diet does play a big role in your hair growth, but we are getting lots of protein, so I guess I don't understand. I did read this:
Rapid weight loss is another reason for accelerated hair shedding. Dropping weight too quickly and/or participating in a fad diet that is not nutritionally sound can cause imbalances in the body and cause increased hair shedding. Following a healthy weight-loss program can prevent this from happening. |
The Nioxin at Walmart that I bought is the real deal and it's cheaper. You have to buy it in the salon that's located in a Super Walmart store (its less because they can buy it in large quanitities). I have heard from several people that the MSM really helps with hair, nails, and skin. I'm trying it. I will look for Biotin too.
