5 / 1000+ resultsresearch Effects of Shampoo and Water Washing on Hair Cortisol Concentrations
The study investigated the effects of shampoo and water washing on hair cortisol concentrations using hair samples from 20 rhesus monkeys. It found that repeated washing, whether with shampoo or water alone, significantly reduced hair cortisol levels. This reduction was primarily due to water exposure, as cortisol levels after 20 water-only washes were similar to those after 20 shampoo washes. The findings suggested that repeated exposure to water can leach cortisol from hair, potentially leading to underestimation of chronic hormone deposition in hair cortisol studies. Collecting samples close to the scalp and considering hair washing frequency were recommended for accurate human hair cortisol assessments.

Shampoos, including those with ketoconazole, may offer mild benefits for hair health but are not effective for stopping hair loss or balding. Effective treatments for hair loss include finasteride and minoxidil, often used together, while shampoos are generally not on the scalp long enough to impact hair follicles significantly.
