learn Hair Transplant

Does transplanted hair require special care? Transplanted hair generally requires no special care after initial healing.

learn Castor oil

Does any castor oil work or do you have to look for a special one? No type of castor oil has been shown to grow hair. Cold-pressed, hexane-free or Jamaican black castor oil differ in processing and smell, but no study shows one works better on hair than another.

Because the fibers cling by static rather than bonding chemically, and because users consistently report they rinse out with ordinary shampoo, the specialist fiber-removal shampoos do not appear to be necessary; a clarifying shampoo may help when fibers are layered under hairspray or gel.
