Testimonials from Clients

I simply love your shampoo and conditioner as well as the Folligen Spray. I have fine hair and have had a very hard time finding a shampoo and conditioner that actually does justice to my hair. From the very first time I used your shampoo and conditioner, I felt an immediate difference in the manageability, shine, and texture of my hair. After leaving the conditioner on my hair for about 20 minutes, spraying on the Folligen and rubbing it into my scalp, and letting it air dry with a little styling product, my hair felt so healthy, soft, and super manageable!! I could not believe it! I think the Folligen spray also helped with the volume. Thank you so much for making a product that truly works!! I honestly did not think it would work this fast! As advised, it seems also that by adding a little bit of water to the bottles of the shampoo/conditioner, it did help with the application.

A.N. Age 32 received in 02/2011

I recently went in for a haircut... [My stylist] was besides himself because my hair had so much body and shine. He said that whatever I'm doing, I'm doing it right. I've been using Folligen Shampoo and Conditioner for just a few months now. In fact, I'm only half way down my first bottle of shampoo. When I shower, I shampoo my hair first then mix a few drops of Emu Oil-S for Hair into a nickle sized amount of conditioner before working into my hair. I leave the product in while I shower and then rinse off before getting out. I also use Folligen Spray daily because my hair started thinning after I turned 50. I'd just like to thank you for a head of hair that looks and feels better than it did when I was a teenager. Thank you Dr. Pickart and Skin Biology.

I am happy to say Thank You to you for the superb product. Of course, I googled this product for much needed information everyday before usage and rarely thought that feedback was for real. I am here to tell anyone reading this that this product is for real... My middle is filling in well with no side effects. My scalp is soothing with no sores or pimples and hair is finally manageable. So I would like to say "THIS STUFF REALLY WORKS". I have only been using for 3 weeks and I have gone from bare to coverage. I still have an area that is taking longer to deal with but it too is covering. I only started with your starter kit. Will be ordering more product soon. Thank you again and again and again.

HS

After the damage to my scalp due to over processing of relaxers and some relaxer burns on the scalp, Folligen Lotion and MSM (2-4 grams daily) helped improve the health of my hair greatly! Now the damage to the scalp has been completely repaired. I highly recommend the use of Folligen Lotion for those of us who get relaxer touch-ups regularly. It is so important to keep the scalp in top condition. I use Folligen products in between visits to my stylist. My hair is the longest it has EVER been in my life. Although I have chemically relaxed hair, it is healthy and growing! Thank you for inventing this product that is PERFECT for chemically treated ethnic hair. I'm excited to now try the new Hair Signals Therapy!

Hair Concerns: Men

Theories of how to reverse hair loss and thinning hair have focused on the metabolic actions of testosterone metabolites. However, the ultimate factor in hair loss is damage to the hair follicle caused by the testosterone metabolites. A recent study of 3,000 individuals found no link between baldness and the genes (5-alpha reductase) controlling the the production of testosterone metabolites1. If follicular health is improved or maintained, hair loss can be reversed or minimized. Many men have high testosterone metabolite levels but never suffer hair loss.

Hair Concerns: Women

Most hair loss in women is normally due to scalp damage due to perms, coloring dyes, relaxers, using too much heat when drying hair, overuse of shampoos, tight buns or pony-tails, and overcutting (long hair is healthier). The chemical salts and dyes in eyebrow and eyelash make ups often produce a severe loss of eyebrows and eyelashes by age 40 in many women. Psychological stress or hormonal shifts such a menopausal changes or stopping the use of birth control pills can also cause temporary hair loss.

If you look at old photographs of families from about 1880, you will see that many women of age 60 still had long healthy hair in an era before modern hair care techniques. In poor areas on the world today, most mature women have healthier hair than in New York City.

Folligen is a non-drug product designed by Dr. Loren Pickart formulated to boost the health of your hair.

Folligen can be used alone, or in combination with Emu Oil for Hair, or with Minoxidil.

 

 

Emu Oil Can Help

Many of our customers have reported that the combination of Folligen and emu oil often reverse hair loss and improve hair growth. Recently, Dr. Michael Holick (Boston University Medical Center) reported a clinical study that found emu oil accelerated skin regeneration and also stimulated hair growth. He wrote - "The hair follicles were more robust, the skin thickness was remarkably increased... Also, we discovered in the same test that over 80 percent of hair follicles that had been 'asleep' were awakened, and began growing hair".

Minoxidil (2% or 5%)

For more hair stimulation, add in 2% Minoxidil. This can be progressively increased to 5% Minoxidil. Sometimes minoxidil produces scalp irritation. If this happens, stop the minoxidil and use only Folligen until your scalp health is restored. Then reuse the 2% minoxidil and the minoxidil 5% if your scalp remains healthy. Prof. Hedio Uno, one of the world's top scientists on hair growth and who wrote the textbook on Rogaine, found SRCPs and minoxidil work together to produce increased hair growth.

Addition of Retinoic Acid (useful range 0.01 to 0.05%) gives further hair stimulation but may irritate the scalp.

Retinoic acid (Retin-A) helps produce thicker hair shafts when used with minoxidil. This combination appears to be one of the better current approaches to hair regrowth. The major drawback is an often strong scalp irritation. Folligen, used lightly, can greatly reduce this irritation. Sometimes, the combination of minoxidil and retinoic acid causes breaks in the skin barrier.

The addition anti-testosterone supplements or DHT blockers may help further.

DHT (dihydrotestosterone) blockers include the Propecia®, the new drug from Merck and several useful non-drug DHT blockers.

Propecia has been around for some time as Proscar for the treatment of prostate hyperplasia in men and has recently been approved by the FDA for hair growth in men. Merck does not recommend Propecia for women: a one year study of hair growth in 136 post-menopausal women found no significant effect of Propecia on hair growth.

Non-drug natural DHT blockers include saw palmetto oil, pygeum and nettle root extract, the isoflavones genistein and daidzien, and ginkgo biloba.

Saw palmetto has been used for over 400 years as a herbal treatment for enuresis, nocturia, atrophy of the testes, impotence, inflammation of the prostate, and as a mild aphrodisiac for men. Women used the berries to treat infertility, painful periods and problems with lactation.

Extracts of two plants, pygeum bark (Pygeum africanum) and nettle root (Urtica dioica) are widely used for the treatment of prostate hyperplasia. Pygeum africanum is a featured ingredient in our updated copper-peptide product Hair Signals Solution and Hair Signals Cream, added to block DHT.

Isoflavonoids, such as genistein and daidzein are weak estrogens and may lessen the risk of osteoporosis and heart disease. Several studies have found a protective effect of isoflavones against the development of cancer. The Chinese report that daidzien exhibits hair growth and hair color promoting activity. Some Folligen users have reported good hair regrowth when combined with oral intake of bioflavinoids.

Ginkgo biloba is a popular herb used world wide to improve cerebral blood flow and general blood circulation. It was recently reported by the Journal of the American Medical Association to slow the progression of Alzheimer's disease. It has been reported to inhibit 5-alpha reductase activity.

 

Bleached, or very blond hair may pick up a green tint if Folligen is in contact with the hair. This is similar to the greenish-tint that may occur after spending time in swimming pools. The blue color can be removed with a solution of 1 part of lemon juice and 4 parts of water.

If the coloring is a problem, then use Folligen for Blondes which has no blue color.

Use Emu Oil S Lipid Replenisher on top to facilitate penetration.

Discontinue minoxidil if you experience irritation.

Typical results take approximately 4-6 weeks of consistent use.
