Although most doctors will tell you there is no such thing as a
hair loss cure, there are many products on the market proposing
that they can cure your hairloss problem. One of these is
Rogaine, a topical treatment that you have to apply to the scalp
twice a day. However, this treatment is not a hair loss cure
because once you stop using it, you start to lose your hair
again. If you look at the list of ingredients in this hair loss
product, you will see that the main one is alcohol. This is one
of the top ingredients that has been used for years in hairloss
cures.
People have always searched for a cure for baldness. Way back in
the early part of the 20th century, seven sisters claimed they
had a hair loss cure. They used the proof of pictures of their
father as a bald man and then with a full head of hair to show
that their hairloss cure worked. The ingredients they used were
alcohol, borox and quinine – toxic ingredients that one would
never think of equating with a hair loss cure. Even back then,
people were searching for a way to regain their hair because
these sisters made a fascinating profit selling the product.
The product they developed is the basis on which modern day hair
loss cures are based. With this product you wet a piece of white
flannel cloth, the precise size of your head, with the solution.
Keep it on your head overnight and if you need to, wear a cap to
keep it in place. According to the reports written about this
cure for baldness, the solution helps to loosen the matter that
is caked on the hair follicles causing them to stop growing. The
solution penetrates into the roots and helps to rejuvenate them.
This is the same principle that hair loss cures are based on
today.
The problem with a hair loss cure is that if it works, why are
there so many different products on the market. If an actual
cure for baldness were found, it would be in the headlines of
all the major newspapers and magazines. While these so-called
hairloss cures may work and spur hair growth, the process takes
a long time and anyone using the products has to have a lot of
patience. They don’t work overnight and in a small percentage of
cases they don’t work at all.
Hair loss cures certainly have an interesting history!
