but the shampoo unfortunately hasn't done anything, I'd read that it helped with hair growth and oily hair too and unfortunately I haven't noticed either of those things either, I suppose everyone is different and what works for one person won't for another. You may have read in my recent fashion and beauty haul (see post here) that I purchased the Alpecin Double Effect Caffeine Shampoo, I'd read a blog review on it and thought it sounded like it was worth a try and might help my current hair woes.

Packed with fungus-fighting ketoconazole, the key active ingredient in treating dandruff, it works to curb your scalp's yeast production, which will help relieve inflamed follicles and support fuller, denser hair. Their bodies, trying to cope with the high-octane activity, draw energy and resources from various places, including your hair. Studies show that caffeine can stimulate hair follicles and promote new hair growth in people suffering from hair loss and male pattern baldness (androgenic alopecia).

There are a few differences, though perhaps the most noticeable is the addition of propylene glycol in this formulation. When considering whether a hair product is the right fit for you, it’s always best to take a good look at the ingredients list. From what I understand know, inflammation is potentially the root cause of many if not all forms of alopecia.

Caffeine-based shampoos have become quite popular recently over the long-held belief that they can help stimulate hair growth, strengthen fine and weakened hair, and prevent further thinning. However, I have read a review from a young woman who was suffering from patchy hair loss (which sounds like alopecia areata) who said that Alpecin shampoo definitely did help her. Alpecin’s study was conducted using extracted human hair follicles, and performed in vitro (meaning outside of the body).Best in the worldThis is best shampoo I'd used in my life first of all it stopped my hair loosing and then I found that made my hair very fine and easy to styling. They came under scrutiny for only using male patients in studies who suffered from androgenic alopecia and for using unorthodox measuring practices.
