I Have Not Lost All My Hair Although I Have Alopecia Androgenetica. How Can I Ensure No More Falls Out?
You can't. But you can make sure that what you put on your scalp will not make the hair loss worse. In alopecia androgenetica, it has been suggested that Regaine (topical minoxidil) has a "stabilizing" effect. It helps the patient to hold on to the hair he or she has in 80 per cent of cases, while in 40 per cent of cases it promotes actual regrowth.
The huge display of hair products in the average pharmacy may confuse you with their incredible variety. Usually the shampoos and conditioners made by the big names in hairdressing will be best.
Many people point out that their hair would look better and more plentiful if they tinted it. This should do no harm if you use a reputable product, preferably one you have used before, and it is applied by a hairdresser you know and trust. But avoid permanent waves as they contain very strong chemicals. You really need to find a hairdresser who can advise on gentle products suitable for fragile hair. Don't forget to use conditioner on your scalp as well as on your face.
