In this episode of DermTV, Dr. Schultz discusses normal hair loss and hair growth in women, and in another abnormal, so you can learn whether those few strands of hair floating around are a normal occurrence or something to look into.

@cece4life911 Have you tried taking prenatal vitamins? There are ones called PREGNACARE from boots in the UK. Alot of girls on Youtube take them to grow out a hair cut etc and it does work. But plz consult ur GP to see if it’s safe to take (the high levels of iron 400gms plus biotin help hair growth)
The other SAFE option is MUSTARD oil believe it or faint. Excellent hair stimulant. My sisters friend used it and she has normal hair growth. Leave it in over night and wash hair the nxt day

@lovemakeup786 um.. no but i do take like omega 3 6 9 nd vitamin e.. and stuff like that.. can i purchase pregnacare from like a local drugstore.. i dont live in the UK .. im in canada.. is there anyway i can get it .. and does it give side effects like more hair growing on my legs and arms?
August 31st, 2010 - 06:56
@cece4life911 You can get it from a local drug store. It’s a supplement for women who are thinking of conception/during and after pregnancy. You wont get any ‘HAIRY@ side effects but you must follow instructions on how to n how many to take daily (it’s normally oe a day and afte a full meal) I know alot of girls who take it but you do run the risk of having too much iron in ur blood. With me i have less red blood cells in my blood so i guess i’m OK.

@mzrey It could be a change in climate ie summer to winter etc, Diet, stress, Low iron, hair product ie shampoo/hair dye etc. I’d have a blood test just to be sure if it’s iron def/over active thyroid gland.

@cece4life911 Thank you for your comments :-) Was doing a little search on Essential oils to promote hair growth etc
Herbs For Healthy Hair
1. Sage: Excellent for weak hair.
2. Rosemary: Enhances dark hair
3. Chamomile: Promotes healthy hair growth.
4. Catnip: Promotes hair growth.
5. Burdock Root: Promotes hair growth and reduces hair from falling out
And found this product: GRO-AUT Hair Growth Oil (again there are reviews on Youtube.

@lovemakeup786 omg thanx for taking your time to do some research that really nice of you.. im sorry this is actually like the last question im gonna bother you with.. all this are for external use right like… i put them on my hair as a treatment..?? or do i take some internally…?
September 1st, 2010 - 16:51
@cece4life911 No probs. Sorry i didn’t mention tht they are for EXTERNAL use. The oils aren’t for consuming. If you make a blend of the PURE ESSENTIAL oils like Rosemary, Catnip etc use a Carrier oil.I usually use Moraccan Argan oil (ebay read feedback b4 chosing to buy from a seller). Argan oil is very absorbant and is excellent for hair growth etc (watch reviews on Youtube) If you cannot get hold of it use Coconut oil.Olive oil lightens hair colour. Wouldn’t use it on dyed hair.
