If you have experienced hair loss on your scalp and are looking for alternative types of treatment from prescription drugs and/or over-the-counter treatments that may have undesirable side effects, you may consider trying a natural shampoo or topical product that promises to stop hair loss and regrow your hair. The key factor in effectively choosing hair regrowth shampoos and topical treatments is the ability of the product to minimize the presence of DHT on your scalp. So, what is DHT and what does it have to do with hair loss?
DHT, or Dihydrotestosterone, is produced by the body when the hormone testosterone and an enzyme called 5 alpha reductase combine. Another hormone called androgen, which is known to have a significant impact on the growth of hair on the body, is adversely affected by DHT. When the two mix, the common result is hair loss. Both men and women have these hormones and enzymes naturally occurring in their systems. Hormonal changes in the body frequently alter the metabolism of these hormones, which can result in male hair loss beginning in the early years, and women may experience hair loss in later years as they approach menopause.
At the base of each hair in the scalp, is a hair follicle that is nourished by the body and the capillaries to grow healthy hair. The presence of DHT prevents proper nourishment to be delivered to the hair follicle. The longer the hair follicles remain undernourished, they are unable to continue the growing phase for the hair and the follicles reproduce more slowly. Over time the hair follicle may get smaller and smaller until the hair finally falls out and the follicle is unable to grow new hair.
The hair restore products you choose need to do three things:
1. They include ingredients that naturally block DHT on the scalp
2. Unclog hair follicle pores
3. Deliver growth stimulating nutrients to the hair follicles
Effective hair regrowth shampoos contain ingredients that are natural DHT blockers and are typically very mild. These shampoos focus on cleansing your scalp and nourishing the hair follicles. Since many of them are made from the most natural ingredients, they tend to be non-toxic and provide much needed amino acids, proteins and minerals that your body needs to grow healthy hair. Another bonus is that these natural shampoos do not leave harmful residues on your scalp which contribute to blocked hair follicle pores.
After rigorous testing, the FDA has approved two ingredients as proven DHT blockers and new hair regrowth stimulators. They are finasteride and minoxidil; however, while many people are concerned about the side effects of these ingredients, they are wary of natural products that make similar claims for hair regrowth. Many plants and plant derivatives have been used to maintain healthy hair and scalps in humans since ancient times. The fact that no one wants to pay the FDA to test these un-patentable plants in the same way it has tested finasteride and minoxidil, does not mean that the properties in these plants is not effective for hair growth. Many people experience beneficial results from the use of plant based hair restore products.
Essential oils have been popular since ancient times in the production of hair preparations and are just as popular today in modern hair care formulas. Rosemary has been known to restore strength and shine to lifeless looking hair. The leaves of the bay tree and stinging nettles are popular in the treatment of dandruff and other flaking scalp conditions. Both lavender and tea tree oil are known to have anti-bacterial, anti-viral and anti-fungal properties. Studies have been done on an herb called saw palmetto. It acts as a natural 5 alpha reductase inhibitor to prevent the conversion of testosterone into DHT. This herb works similarly to the way finasteride works to inhibit DHT production.
There are numerous hair care treatments whose formulas rely on the properties of herbs to stimulate new hair growth. You might need to try several different types of products to see which ones your body responds to more favorably to restore your scalp and hair to a healthy state. Some of the larger and more reputable manufacturers of hair regrowth shampoos have paid for independent testing of their formulas and will gladly share this information to validate the efficacy of their herbal blends. The cost of many natural and herbal preparations are far more affordable than their prescription and chemical counterparts, so shop around and find the product that works best for you.
