Thank you everyone for the positive (and negative) comments. The before photo was taken 6 months prior to the after, and I agree with those of you who noticed my hair was styled differently. That’s my error and I apologize to anyone who feels deceived by it. It was not my intention, but I understand the disappointment some have expressed. I do believe in all the treatments I’ve mentioned in this video, and have not tried PRP injections for myself. I do not use minoxidil but would consider it if the other options didn’t help. Although I still have some thinning on top, I’ve noticed a significant improvement in the hair thickness after starting these treatments mentioned in the video. Much love and thank you for always being honest with me. 🥰🥰

Using natural oils for scalp massages actually helps in hair fall reduction. Oils such as coconut, onion, as well as rosemary can be particularly good. I combine a few drops of rosemary oil with my liitleextraaa cocconion shampoo and hair oil set, which this really helped in getting good hair growth.

On the before photo, the hair is just closer together because it's wet, oily, you name it, and in the after photo it's freshly washed and dried.

I remember when I faced hair fall, I did all the following to successfully control it:
Incorporate scalp massage into your routine.
Don’t use hot water when rinsing your hair.
Shield your hair from excessive sweat.
Use a dual tooth neem wood comb to detangle wet hair.
Cut down on your sugar and processed food consumption.
Use gentle hairfall control shampoo and oil like littleeextra cocconion.
Nurture a positive mindset for general well being.

Kudos to you for creating such an informative and engaging video. There are completely natural recipes for preventing hair loss that anyone can make at home, and they are very effective. What's best about them is that after you stop using them, your hair remains the same, it doesn't start falling out again. I believe Norlest has all these recipes and products. Check it out.

Sounds like a paid commercial for overpriced, ineffective Nutrefol and IRestore.

Summary:
- Yoga / Meditation to reduce stress
- Nutrafol to ensure proper nutrition
- Low light Lazer treatment (iRestore)
- Rosemary oil shampoo

$80 a month for the vitamins and over $1000 for the hair device... Apparently I can't afford to regrow my hair..

I have female pattern baldness and i am 31. A mix of oils like castor, rosemary, amla, bhringaraj, coconut and a few others helped me in hair loss. I am from India so availability is not a problem . The magical remedy in my case is onion juice. I apply it on my scalp where bald spots are appearing and then wash after 15 min . Results are not tremendous but covered my baldness. I still have thin hair but no scalp visibility.

I adore you and don't want you to think I am trying to be critical, BUT the before and after pics are pretty different. Before, your hair looks like it hadn't been washed in a week causing it to flatten out, stick together and look like you have a lot less, while in the after, your hair looks super shiny suggestion that it had been recently washed. I do see a tiny spot there but you do address the fact that it was a 50% regrowth. Next time you want to convince us of the differences please make sure the pictures are taken under the same conditions!

I put 10 drops of essential rosemary oil and -pepperrmint oil each in my Shampoo bottle, shake well and try massage properly in my scalp everytime i wash my hair. It didnt get thicker, however my hair grows more than twice as fast

Edit: i meant to say 10 drops of each PER 100ml of shampoo! My mistake. I had started out with less drops, bc i didnt know how my skin would react or if my hair would get greasy faster (i have fine, thin hair).
Also the strong smell of oils dont last long after you wash the shampoo out

And a little Update: Ive doing this for 3 month now and recently my regular-daily hair loss has decreased a little.

My hair began falling out big time after a very stressful time in my life so I researched the internet and decided to try the rice water method. It really really worked. Now at 75 I have long thick dark hair that has grown down to my waist and cut off three times since I started. Simple and cheap. The Hua women use this and women in their 80's have thick 8 foot long black hair they have to wrap like a turbon on their heads to control. Also, just as good is massaging your scalp - it stimulates the growth. A handful of plain white rice in a glass jar then fill with water and let sit for 24 hours. It's smelly but there are three nutrients in it that stimulate everything. I spray it on and put a cap on to leave it overnight. You only have to do this once a month. Pretty soon you will see short hairs growing in. Lots of videos on Youtube about this.

A few years ago I began having a serious problem with thinning hair. I actually had some bald spots on my crown. I did used to disguise this with hair fibre powder, but it reached a point where it could no longer be disguised. I had been using a chemical dye but changed it to henna. I stopped blow drying my hair and let it dry naturally. I began using rosemary and peppermint essential oils on my scalp. Then I found out about micro needling treatment. I had 5 sessions professionally done and my hair began to improve significantly. I bought a micro needling pen and use this on my scalp each week. I do take biotin regularly. My hair isn't as thick as I would wish, but has improved significantly. My bald patches have gone. I am continuing with this regime.

No bueno Doc…hope nutrafoil is paying u well for the endorsement…..this kinda stuff makes u less reliable to be counted on for honest counsel

[veganperson]

I had sudden hair loss and I didn’t know what I was going to do, so I went online to look into hair loss solutions. I started taking biotin supplements and using rosemary oil with caster oil as the carrier. It worked, my hair is back where it was before the loss with lots of new growth. The other thing a person could do is add rosemary essential oil to their shampoo, but I always left the oil mixture on my head overnight. It worked for me, it might work for you.

Dr. Youn, I purchased the iRestore helment, and Rosemary oil. I am using both as directed and not only has my bald spots filled in, I am growing hair around my hairline that I didn't realize had thinned out. Thank you so much for this information. To all the naysayers below, this WORKS! It has worked for me and my hair has filled in and is growing like it did when I was younger. I am 67 years old and a woman! Thanks again, Dr. Youn!

Went from having respect for his medical knowledge to realizing he sold his soul to sponsorships, money and consumerism.

There is zero change between those two photos. One has oily hair that has gotten parted, the other has freshly washed voluminous hair, styled to cover up the balding.

[Jim-viwi]

In the Before photo there is no attempt to comb hair evenly. In the After photo the hair is combed to hide bald spots. This is a universal and blatant trick used in the "hair regrowth" racket. I defy anyone to show me before and after photos for this product in which I cannot easily identify accidental or deliberate bias.
