Hair Care Regime to Regain Hair after Hair Thinning : Reader Query

Hi Lancy,

I came across your blog yesterday. I am doing PhD (26 years old) and hence mostly under work stress and personal stress. I have been suffering form hairloss from years now. I tried every possible things. Doctors prescribed me Minidoxil which did not work well for me. I also read that it is not safe. Actually I do not understand why doctors says no to oil hair. That is really strange.

I have seen you have put lot of efforts for the blog. I have ordered MABH hair oil after reading good reviews across and also after seeing your beautiful hair. I had long hair (up til hips) in my chilhood and it was not very thick but of moderate thickness. I used to put 2 hair plaits while goin to school. But now I have hair remaining which used to form one plait on one side. I mean to say half of what I had. For some reason I had to cut my hair and it never reached that hair length.

I have ordered MABH hair oil today and I am eagerly waiting for it. Earlier I regularly oiled hair but now I do not do much. I tried many oils but none did wonders.

I am presently using Tresseme Hairfall control shampoo and conditioner. I am also using Trichup serum. I have gone across your blog and there is so much to read that I do not know finally what to follow.

Can you please tell a proper regime to be followed form the start with details. I am little confused. Most products are SLS and silicone based shampoo. Even Tressemme is one of them. Can you recommend me some really good products. I have oily scalp, frizzy type hair. I wonder how scalp is oily and strand frizzy.

I will list few things which I have planned to add to my hair care. They are..

1. Oil my hair at least once a week leaving it overnight
2. I have to take biotin tablets
3. Increase protein intake (egg, fish, paneer etc)

Waiting for your reply.

Regards,
Sangeeta.

My 5 Year Old Daughter’s Hair Journey with MABH Hair Oil : Photos and Hair Regime

Hello everyone!

Today I am here to share the hair care routine I follow for my 5 something old girl who is a big fan of Lancy. You can find her taking an interest in hair talks even in her kindergarten age. Her dream – to get beautiful and long hair like Lancy! 🙂

I myself was never very serious and concerned about my hair until I found Lancy’s blog and won my first bottle in a contest announced by her. (Where people share their ‘hair story‘) And you bet me the hair oil actually is magical. My friends too noticed a bounce in my hair and even talked about the density of my braid. Talking about hair growth it is not that fast, reasons known to me mostly hereditary. But overall my hair fall stopped to minimal, texture of hair improved a lot with loads of visible shine. What else do you need?

Since I had already used two bottles of this magic treatment oil, I thought of using the same for my daughter. Of course you can’t experiment on kids. Since the results were quite evident with me using the same I thought of using it for my daughter as well. So I took advice from Lancy if I can use the oil for my girl. She said yes! And Bingo!

Hair Loss due to Products Prescribed by Trichologist : Reader Query

Query:

Hi Lancy,

This is Zaara from Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu. I am 19 and I am a avid reader of your blog. Hair stories on this blog actually made me bold who was a silent sufferer in the past.

I had an oily scalp, very fine hair without any hair fall issues. Since my hair density was scanty on my scalp, I visited a trichologist who suggested me to use Triclenz shampoo and take Pro Anogen tablets orally; but to my displeasure, I started to loose strands of hair at an alarming rate and my scalp became extremely dry. I was shocked with the results and I visited the trichologist again. He gave me a Proanogen spray which made my hair even worse and my scalp started peeling. I immediately stopped using all the products and switched to my regular Dove shampoo. Scalp peeling has stopped completely but still I have hair fall and dry scalp since 6 months. Although I use herbal homemade packs and oils, my hair is not responding. Being blessed with beautiful tresses, I hope you can help me to tackle this battle.
