Fabulous for Sudden Hair Loss

I’ve had thin, very fine and poker straight hair my entire life as do others in my family so a hair stylist I used 10+ years ago recommended the TRIPHASIC Progressive Concentrated Serum, Hereditary & Hormonal Thinning Hair which I liked very much but it’s expensive so I’d only buy it occasionally but then in May of 2019, I got a urinary tract infection that was so severe that I was hospitalized for 9 days. I had a very high white blood cell count and spiking fevers. It was so bad that I damaged my kidneys. About 2-3 months later, my hair started falling out in near clumps. I went to a dermatologist who diagnosed me with a sudden hair loss condition called "telogen effluvium” which is caused by a "shock” to the system (in my case, the high fever). It’s different from alopecia and usually starts when my did-a couple or 3 months after whatever the "shock” was. I can’t tell you how upsetting it was to just run my fingers through my hair and have a near handful of hair come out. The doctor gave me a prescription liquid corticosteroid which actually didn’t do much. I got my hair cut very short and then googled what to use to help prevent further loss and there were a ton of suggestions but I choose to use this product designed for "reactional and sudden” thinning. The hair loss stopped on it’s own which is typical for the condition but I wanted to treat my scalp and promote hair growth so I started using this product and it worked! I actually now have slightly thicker hair than I ever had and the "texture” is different but that’s likely more from the hair loss in general. But this product very much helped with the overall regrowth. Highly recommend.

Pros
  • Hair Care
Cons
  • Limited availability in stores, as the product may only be accessible through certain retailers or online, making it difficult for some consumers to obtain or try before committing to a purchase
