As of 2018, it turns out Alpecin have actually been banned from saying their product can help to reduce hair loss (because it doesn't work): www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/alpecin-caffeine-shampoo-banned-reduce-hair-loss-advertising-standards-authority-a8276951.html
the results of this study are promising because they show that an effective natural ingredient like caffeine can be considered as an effective alternative treatment to common drug therapies against hair loss. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5804833/
@Major Damage this is an advert for nioxin and he’s actually trying to dress it up as if it’s an honest review. Alpecin reduces thinning hair, it is a fact that caffeine boosts growth…. I’m sure Nioxin works aswell but the way this clown is discrediting other brands and trying to do it as if he’s doing a no biased factual video is fucking disgraceful!
If you're expecting to grow hair with this then tough luck. This product is meant to strengthen whatever hair you have left and can give you a few extra years before it's over
There are unbiased studies that prove caffeine shampoos do suppress DHT on the scalp. Caffeine also increases the speed of hair growth and stimulate the roots. Maybe the key is the leave Alpecin on the scalp longer than 2 minutes and maybe use micro needling once a week for example to try and stimulate the follicles even more. I will say one thing about Alpecin that it certainly thickens hair on a cosmetic note!
I mix Alpecin and nizoral together foam it up on my hair and leave it for 7-8 minutes that's when it starts to feel tingly. Very gently rinse off with bowls of water . Been doing this for years. 33 now and zero baldness, I was thinning slightly before I started this regime. My hair is as thicker and fuller now than ever.
@@kieran8845 ive just mixed the alpecin with rosemary essential oil as ive researched this also is a stimulant that prevents hairloss and promotes hair growth and im using a derma roller with 1.5 mm need once every 2 weeks. i was considering getting minoxidil but my hair condition isnt that bad ...yet at least i might switch to just minoxidil if my hair line doesnt stop receding or i the thickeness of my hair doesnt even out in part
I was losing hair on the top of my scalp on the crown, I turned to alpecin and after using it everyday for 3 months, hair loss has came to a halt and it’s actually started growing back thicker. I also use a scalp massager.
I use a mixture of nizoral £6 a month and Alpecin £8 a month.. My hair was thinning on the crown and slightly on the sides about a year ago. Since shampooing the Alpecin combined with the nizoral 3x a week continuously for 12 months I have now zero noticeable balding areas and my hair feels and looks thicker than ever. It works for me guys and a hell of a lot cheaper than rogaine etc
I've used a lot of products after experiencing severe shedding and let me tell you that Alpecin after about two months my hair didn't necessarily grow back, but it certainly stopped the shed. I've been using this for over two years and it certainly has kept things where they were. Each to his own.
Also, I used to keep it in for a while and not just the 2 mins that it recommends. I put it in and let it sit for an hour before i shower to actually soak into the scalp.
@@psifoo still the same, alpecin won’t regrow hair. I have had amazing results with the following: minoxidil and derma roller. Three months of consistent use and I went from almost bald to a full head of hair.
Hey nick. I recently started using the caffeine liquid. It works wonders for me. I want to know if you have used caffeine liquid with or after minoxidil. If so are you still using minoxidil with the caffeine or have you stopped using minoxidil.
Hey guys! I wanted to share my story here because I found Nioxin in this video and in the James Robin one (WHICH IS A SPONSORED VIDEO) that Ben mentioned. Well, from my experience Nioxin is a complete scam. I've been using Alpecin for the past 2 years and my biggest mistake was to stop using it from time to time. Instead, I had higher expectations and bought Nioxin. I've used the system 2 kit and it landed in the trash after just 3 weeks. I have male pattern baldness and in 3 weeks I lost more hair than during the 2 years when I was using Alpecin. Alpecin doesn't do wonders, but at least it stops further hairloss if you are consistent (I used the liquid in the morning and the shampoo AND the liquid in the evening). So I completely disagree with this video, I just wanted to give you guys a hint what to expect and what not from Nioxin (aka. it can't stop your hairloss, but makes your hair a little bit fuller after you used it).
This is the most accurate comment I've come across. Thank you. Please tell me, since you used Alpecin Liquid in the morning, did you wash it off with the Alpecin Shampoo in the evening before applying the 2nd use of Alpecin Liquid for the day? Also, are you saying that even with consistent use of Alpecin Liquid twice a day, everyday + using Alpecin Shampoo every day, that you didn't notice any thickening or regrowth (of existing thinner hairs) ? (You just felt your hair looked visibly fuller?)
Before reading any other comments, I just want to say that for my part, seeing a guy with a full head of hair condemn a product that claims to prevent hair loss is ridiculous. When I turned eighteen I developed an absurdly pronounced widow's peak along with a developing bald spot on the back of my skull. This is called alopecia, and it runs in my family thanks to one Grandmother. Not saying I believe in these products, but it does not matter to me that a guy with all his hair doesn't like them
I think you're being too harsh. I did not expect miracles when buying my caffeine shampoo, but I certainly find less strings on my palm or on my desk when running my hand through my hair than before. There are always non-commercial, medical shampoos that you can only find in a pharmacy that I'm sure work better than either Nioxin or caffeine shampoo.
Loved your video definitely going to start saving some money for that other product but have to say.... I've been using alpecin for 8 months, I could actually see in my brushes there were less hair on it. I decided to let it grow, but then I started noticing it started feeling really dry and since they had no conditioner to go with this product (even asked them for recommendations but they rather just pushed tonic liquid which I was already using anyways) decided to just add a random conditioner... After a month I started mixing up some random oils known to motivate hair growth (rosemary, castor oil, tea tree, mint, avo oils, olive oils - you know my own little mixtures) you wouldn't believe my luck, went to town last week for the first time in years without wearing a hat. I decided to cut my hair to get a closer look and really my bold spot is completely gone. My point is even when you find a product, you still need to come up with your own little twist. There is a little scientist in all of us.... 😜 Thanks for the video, absolutely love your vibe.... Let's see what else you're going on about.. 🙈
Hi Brian, you are absolutely right about what you're saying and this is actually the exact approach I've been thinking about (using hair promoting oils as sort of conditioner for my hair at night to counter the drying effects of Alpecin and to also give added simulation to my scalp.) Love the idea. My plan is to use Alpecin Liquid in the morning, then in the evening wash it our with Alpecin Shampoo, then towel dry my hair and then apply Alpecin Liquid for a second time (because there was a study done that said Alpecin Liquid used twice a day gave the same results as 5% Rogaine! ). Then before bed I will use a mixture of hair promoting oils like Rosemary + Peppermint Oil (Essential oils) mixed with Coconut Oil (Carrier Oil) to counter the drying effect of Alpecin 😎🧠
There's also TripleEight Caffeine Shampoo from Poundland; costs £1 for 250 ml. Alpecin costs £8 for 375 ml. They smell near enough the same (there is a difference). They both contain conditioning agents so they function as 2-in-1 (shampoo + conditioner). No noticeable difference from either of them, but they do smell nice.
I used Alpecin for 2 weeks now, my hair does strengthens and is visibly thicker. Leave 5mins and really massage your head. I stop using hair conditioner during this period. Every 2 days i use olive oil on hair before i sleep. I make sure i have enough sleep too. Because stress can cause hairloss. I just find that it is a good hair treatment save the bucks than going to salon or trichologist to treat your hair. If u need booster just use amla n hibiscus powder as hair mask before u shampoo your hair.
My dermatologist told me to use this shampoo because I have oily scalp, basically the oil produced is suffocating my hair roots. But I also use pills and a lotion with this. I don't think the shampoo alone can ever do that, regrowing hair, and if you have it genetically, you can only slow down the hair fall, unfortunately you can't regrow it.
my dermatologist told me to use redensyl lotion and finasteride pill..i dont use the pill because it changes the hormone and i am afraidof that. what pill you are using?
I have used this shampoo (caffeine based) for over 5 years! It certainly makes your hair feel thicker. My hair is still thinning, but its hard to know if my hair would have thinned faster... I’m still using it.
I have tried many different products before and Alpecin seems to be the only one that works for me with noticeably strengthened hair within weeks and thicker hair shafts within about 1.5 months. I have been using red light therapy with the shampoo, which I find works very well together. I guess the same product doesn't work for everyone, but at least works very well for me.
@pranaorganics893 My protocol is, I use the shampoo at night and use the caffeine liquid from the same brand in the morning. I usually use my red-light cap before I wash my hair, as the cap tends to make my hair look funny after use 😂My cap has both red and blue light, so I use them alternatively between days. Blue light seems to help with redness on my scalp when I use it for 20 minutes per session.
well I am using alpecin since 2 month everyday, i take iron supplement everyday too , and my hair loss stop completely and all my hair from the back of my head totally regrown, and some in top of my head are regrowing too. I think it depends of how your body react , maybe it's not working on british as tanning is not working on you too cause of your pig skin, but Alpecin is a very good product, try to use it with iron supplement at the same time.
I tried Alpecin and it didn't work. After watching this video, I bought Nioxin and wow! Not only do I have thicker looking, lovely luscious locks but I now have a 6 figure job, three mansions and a SMOKING HOT south American wife, all within the space of TWO WEEKS! I cannot believe it! Imagine where I'm going to be when I move onto my next bottle! Definitely giving a thumbs up to Nioxin, everyone reading this should invest and I hope to see you all on the other side.
I 'm a woman 24. I use Alpecin Shampoo and I noticed faster hair growth and new baby hair around my forehead. Every time I wash my hair with it, I leave the shampoo on for at least half an hour. It works for me!
I found that alpecin caffeine shampoo is pretty good my hair grew that little bit quicker which was a bonus as I was growing my hair out but I the downside is it strips the natural oils out of your hair I have really thick dark brown hair and my hair goes bushy after using the caffeine shampoo
i am a girl. I don"t know if Alpecin helped me i have nice hair but i had more hair definitely 8 years ago. Alpecin has nice fresh smell it dries the hair a little so you must use something after shampooing. It helps grow hair faster but i don't think it helps regrow the hair you lost maybe helps save the one you got.
I disagree I have female pattern hair loss and after the first 2 washes I found my hair loss reduced by 75% and tou cannot see my bald patches anymore. I am hooked.
I've using Alpecin for a few months now, and I've stuck with it. Being honest, although I haven't noticed any hair regrowth, since *I've* been using it, it's made hair look thicker, fuller, made it a *LOT* stronger and I've noticed a *massive* reduction in hair loss. And that's why I'm sticking with it.
I don't have hair loss but still use Alpecin. I heard best time to use it is when you don't yet have hair loss. No idea if that's true or proven though.
Ey u know what, this guy sounds reasonable. I got alpecin as gift, was extremely skeptic. The nioxin argument makes absolute sense without miraculous claims.
I would say that if a review is saying none of the other products work except for one (nioxin) and the others are overpriced except for the one (nioxin) that you can buy using the link that I am providing in this video it is pretty much guaranteed that he is getting commission on the traffic he is bringing to that website. This is an infomercial effectively dressed up as an honest review.
Works well for me together with Minoxidil DS and Finasteride. I use the shampoo daily. Apply Minoxidil. Apply the solution after Minoxidil has dried out. Took two months to see results. I'm truely happy. Please consult your doctor first for advise prior to using my form of combinations. As, I'm not a medical advisor.
It isn't supposed to make new hairs. Its to strengthen the hair so that it doesn't fall out. Therefore you wont see a difference. You will only see a difference once stopped using it.
EveryMan how’s the nioxin coming along you still using it ? I just bought a sample kit today to try for 4 weeks. When you say you apply over night do you mean you rinse any product out of you me hair and apply to your hair before bed ?
Just shave your head and own the look. I tried everything to slow down my hairless and thinning and regrow hair. Than I said to myself after a year and no real results. I buzzed off my hair and shaved my head and I never looked back. Best decision I've ever made for my mental health and self esteem. Embrace the bald head your best facial features will be more prominent and no one has to look at those wild strands of thin hair sticking out your scalp
Genuine, honest, factual and not in anyway associated with NIOXIN even though NIOXIN is the only one that works and you should buy it right now using the link in the description!
not sure if its true for hair, but Sulfates are bad for sensitive skin.. if you have inflamation problems then avoid sulfates, thats what doctor told me
actually your body makes more oils the more you wash them away, so basically your heads gets the same amount of oils regardless of how often you wash it.
brownpunk It’s that type of product that it works for some, and doesn’t for some. It’s all about how bad your hair loss is, genetics, if your hair can handle the ingredients. As this comments is 7 months old I’m guessing you’ve bought it, so tell me if it worked cause I’ve only used it for a week and I am already feeling and seeing a little difference.
For my hair I use “Herbal essence coconut milk shampoo” after using it my hair lose has stopped b4 that my hair was going like crazy even in da shower I was seeing hair all over my hand and all but yeah I also take Vitamin c tablets daily which is also very good for hair but the only thing is my hair looks very dry it has always been dry idk what to use for dryness of my hair. But yeah no other shampoo has worked for me besides that but my brother uses the Alpecin shampoo and he says it’s actually good for his hair but not so much for me I guess everyone’s hair’s different
Thank u for this video. Ive been thinking of using a caffeine shampoo instead of Nioxin (not because Nioxin hasn’t worked, just wanted to try other alternatives). Thanks to your video I decided to stick with Nioxin.
First of all just because it didnt work for you doesnt mean it wont work for anyone , second , if there is anytging to point out dont you think its should be done so by experts and by that i mean dermatologists! Not you.
Yes haha, unfortunately, it's not proven to work at all on hair. I wish it did though - hopefully soon there will be a viable shampoo that actually works
You should try the watermans shampoo and conditioner, it's the only one that works, as it's made in the UK, and has been thoroughly lab tested, and also contains dht blockers, it's had a lot of awesome reviews
I used it twice so far and can say it makes your hair feel nice and opens up the follicles to feel thicker. Regrowth? Not sure yet... check back in a few months ;)
My hair is thin due to medicine and poor health, what I do is wet my hair and shampoo my scalp and hair and sit with it on for 8mins out the shower, then go and wash it off with lukewarm water not boiling and it works much better to leave it on I find. Might not be factual but for me I feel it works better
Just use 1.5ml of minoxidil 5% on beard hairline and beard every night. Use 5000mgc biotin supplements once a day. And apply enough natural coconut oil each morning on hair and beard. Most of all, DRINK A LOT OF WATER. In six months, you'll be good. I did it, and I have full beard, for someone who wasn't even genetically destined to have a goatee. At 23, I remember having 12 strands of hair on my chin. So...
Wish i'd seen this before splashing out on the expensive Alpecin shampoo. Male pattern baldness runs in my family but i still have my hair although it's fine,frizzy & fragile. Taking your advice,ditching the Alpecin & opting for the Nioxin. Thanks for the vid.
If it worked, you'd need to be careful where it went. Don't get it on your nose! I'm no scientist, but I think hair follicles are fed from inside the body by blood vessels, so eating (or possibly injecting) something to stimulate hair growth would be more effective. But don't mess around with your hormones without the advice of a qualified physician.
Obviously is topical caffeine not a thing that does wonders, but it has shown in clinical studies to help. You need to let it soak in also a bit and not to rinse it out immediately. The gold standard still is finasteride
But.... only thing i was always told is to NOT wash your hair every day, only twice a week. Maybe if you’d be stopping with washing your hair 5 times a week, you’ll probably start seeing some good results
Because some people go less bald then others anyway. If they are one of them people who go less bald they might think the caffeine shampoo has stopped it being worse then it could be
Ive been using for my hair few years & my hair is still going.. its done nothing for me over the years its just a placebo . i think it’s getting better when really it isn’t.
BS it stopped my DHT since i was using testorone..You have to use it longer than 5 months or 6..You will see wonders..I actually stopped using it cos my hair was thicker and no hairfall for years..
I've stopped receding for now but but my hair is fine on top and when i have my hair cut you can really see big area of my scalp which resembles a bald patch. I may try Nioxin.

do you leave it in then do a red light or wash out then do after ( i have a panel as well)
@pranaorganics893 My protocol is, I use the shampoo at night and use the caffeine liquid from the same brand in the morning. I usually use my red-light cap before I wash my hair, as the cap tends to make my hair look funny after use 😂My cap has both red and blue light, so I use them alternatively between days. Blue light seems to help with redness on my scalp when I use it for 20 minutes per session.
Smart move to tell people to use the product you're making profit of if they buy it with your link. Doesn't really seem unbiased to me!
My thoughts precisely
well I am using alpecin since 2 month everyday, i take iron supplement everyday too , and my hair loss stop completely and all my hair from the back of my head totally regrown, and some in top of my head are regrowing too.
I think it depends of how your body react , maybe it's not working on british as tanning is not working on you too cause of your pig skin, but Alpecin is a very good product, try to use it with iron supplement at the same time.
Wich iron supplements do you use???
I tried Alpecin and it didn't work. After watching this video, I bought Nioxin and wow! Not only do I have thicker looking, lovely luscious locks but I now have a 6 figure job, three mansions and a SMOKING HOT south American wife, all within the space of TWO WEEKS! I cannot believe it! Imagine where I'm going to be when I move onto my next bottle! Definitely giving a thumbs up to Nioxin, everyone reading this should invest and I hope to see you all on the other side.
@Ardian Yes sir, it was a rather amateur attempt, I must admit. My dearest apologies.
@Ardian I don't understand... What do you mean?
so you recommand us to use it JAMES?
I 'm a woman 24. I use Alpecin Shampoo and I noticed faster hair growth and new baby hair around my forehead. Every time I wash my hair with it, I leave the shampoo on for at least half an hour. It works for me!
Wow, what type alpecin is that the grey colour/ general
Bruh u don’t leave shampoo on for an hour wtf man 😂😂
@@aidanfeeney4894 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
half an hour :))) genius.
is that your pic?
I found that alpecin caffeine shampoo is pretty good my hair grew that little bit quicker which was a bonus as I was growing my hair out but I the downside is it strips the natural oils out of your hair I have really thick dark brown hair and my hair goes bushy after using the caffeine shampoo
Hydrate your hair w natural oils
@@stevemizzi3411 do you have any recommendations for natural oils?
@@acabboltz2040 I just use coconut oil everyday before leaving home and comb my hair back
i am a girl. I don"t know if Alpecin helped me i have nice hair but i had more hair definitely 8 years ago. Alpecin has nice fresh smell it dries the hair a little so you must use something after shampooing. It helps grow hair faster but i don't think it helps regrow the hair you lost maybe helps save the one you got.
I disagree I have female pattern hair loss and after the first 2 washes I found my hair loss reduced by 75% and tou cannot see my bald patches anymore. I am hooked.
As a result I used this product 6 months as I said I did not give a result I used more than the ad I thinks
I've using Alpecin for a few months now, and I've stuck with it.
Being honest, although I haven't noticed any hair regrowth, since *I've* been using it, it's made hair look thicker, fuller, made it a *LOT* stronger and I've noticed a *massive* reduction in hair loss. And that's why I'm sticking with it.
Me2 same result
I use alpacin double edfect
I don't know who to believe! Some say they do work & some say they don't work.
Marcus, just remember that people will say anything to make money.
They have to be bots. If you want to help your hair issues either go to a dermatologist or much better, pay a visit to Turkey.
@@CaliforniaCarpenter7 Very true, It's all about big bucks, bro. :o) :o)
@@Makarboy Thanks for the advice Jose, most appreciated. I'll keep in mind what you've said here.
I don't have hair loss but still use Alpecin. I heard best time to use it is when you don't yet have hair loss. No idea if that's true or proven though.
Ey u know what, this guy sounds reasonable. I got alpecin as gift, was extremely skeptic. The nioxin argument makes absolute sense without miraculous claims.
I would say that if a review is saying none of the other products work except for one (nioxin) and the others are overpriced except for the one (nioxin) that you can buy using the link that I am providing in this video it is pretty much guaranteed that he is getting commission on the traffic he is bringing to that website. This is an infomercial effectively dressed up as an honest review.
1:51 He was so quick to that answer 😂
I don't prat about like these other TH-camrs haha
@@BenArthur or maybe cuz you were lying
Works well for me together with Minoxidil DS and Finasteride.
I use the shampoo daily.
Apply Minoxidil.
Apply the solution after Minoxidil has dried out.
Took two months to see results.
I'm truely happy.
Please consult your doctor first for advise prior to using my form of combinations.
As, I'm not a medical advisor.
You're r not going to get sued for forgetting to put that disclaimer...
It isn't supposed to make new hairs. Its to strengthen the hair so that it doesn't fall out. Therefore you wont see a difference. You will only see a difference once stopped using it.
Unfortunately I am too sick for a live stream tonight guys, enjoy this one while I put my head in a bucket!...
EveryMan how’s the nioxin coming along you still using it ? I just bought a sample kit today to try for 4 weeks. When you say you apply over night do you mean you rinse any product out of you me hair and apply to your hair before bed ?
You should use minoxidil.....and nioxzin
Just shave your head and own the look. I tried everything to slow down my hairless and thinning and regrow hair. Than I said to myself after a year and no real results. I buzzed off my hair and shaved my head and I never looked back. Best decision I've ever made for my mental health and self esteem. Embrace the bald head your best facial features will be more prominent and no one has to look at those wild strands of thin hair sticking out your scalp
It’s easy for you to say...you have an awesome beard to complement the shaved head. My beard is patchy and novice.
@@lancer717 try minoxidil for beard :) im also thinking about shaving my head
Been using it for 4 bottles. It's work very well to stop hair falling. But to get it regrow, nayyy...
If your hair is not getting thinner then i guess thats a result.
Thanks for your genuine review 👍
Genuine, honest, factual and not in anyway associated with NIOXIN even though NIOXIN is the only one that works and you should buy it right now using the link in the description!
Nioxin shampoo contains Sulfate, and I've been told that it's best to avoid these if suffering with hair loss??
not sure if its true for hair, but Sulfates are bad for sensitive skin.. if you have inflamation problems then avoid sulfates, thats what doctor told me
Maybe a part of the problem is washing your hair 5 days a week? You're washing all the natural oils from your hair away.
actually your body makes more oils the more you wash them away, so basically your heads gets the same amount of oils regardless of how often you wash it.
The product actually says to wash it every day.
You spose to was your hair every day why you brushing your teeth every day same principle natural oils is all a meth
but what if a live in a tropical trash land where 35 ºC is daily basis, and its impractical not washing my hair 5 times a week?
Ben you are the man that's tells it the way it is , never change.
Thank you for helping me to save money and not have false hope
He's advertising nioxin, alpecin is gud
@@hoodoo457 you're right, he's making money of Nioxin that's why he is talking like this
Alpacin does work
i am going to try it..thanks for your comment
brownpunk It’s that type of product that it works for some, and doesn’t for some. It’s all about how bad your hair loss is, genetics, if your hair can handle the ingredients. As this comments is 7 months old I’m guessing you’ve bought it, so tell me if it worked cause I’ve only used it for a week and I am already feeling and seeing a little difference.
Yesterday i buy this shampoo
Second try my hair not fall i love it
For my hair I use “Herbal essence coconut milk shampoo” after using it my hair lose has stopped b4 that my hair was going like crazy even in da shower I was seeing hair all over my hand and all but yeah I also take Vitamin c tablets daily which is also very good for hair but the only thing is my hair looks very dry it has always been dry idk what to use for dryness of my hair.
But yeah no other shampoo has worked for me besides that but my brother uses the Alpecin shampoo and he says it’s actually good for his hair but not so much for me I guess everyone’s hair’s different
My dermatologist suggested to use alpecin caffeine liquid after applying minoxidil 5%.
How can i trust you ?
@@ironlake8944 then consider this as fake and leave it 😂😂.

Bro, is consulting dermatologist expensive ? What tests your doctor ran on you ?
Which is more better shampoo or liquid
It Works for me
It actually does work, I've tried it myself
Alpecin works for me.
Has it grown your hair back? Will it work if they don't use it everyday?
I have been using shampoo on my head but something else has grown... now i can't walk but girls like me.
Works for me dude 👍
Has it grown your hair back?
But if you hadn't used them, do you think you'd have lost hair quicker?
Thank u for this video. Ive been thinking of using a caffeine shampoo instead of Nioxin (not because Nioxin hasn’t worked, just wanted to try other alternatives). Thanks to your video I decided to stick with Nioxin.
Great video but I can not hear the make of the shampoo which actually works you kept waving it around too much , what is the product called please
It's really cool iam using it
Thank you for such honest reviews ... great job
Hello shampoo alpasin good for hair lose ?
I wash my hair with Apple cider vinegar once a week rarely used a shampoo. It's really help my hair growth, not fastest but it's growth.
Are u having male pattern baldness
First of all just because it didnt work for you doesnt mean it wont work for anyone , second , if there is anytging to point out dont you think its should be done so by experts and by that i mean dermatologists! Not you.
I just bought a bottle of alpecin because i want my hair to grow faster.
Should of watched your video before i went to the shops🤔
Yes haha, unfortunately, it's not proven to work at all on hair. I wish it did though - hopefully soon there will be a viable shampoo that actually works
Yep just throw it in the bin like i did might as well wash your hair in coffee
@@BenArthur Maybe not for everyone sadly
Hello I am an Egyptian man
If you suffer from androgenic alopecia what do you do to protect your hair from balding? Please🙏
You should try the watermans shampoo and conditioner, it's the only one that works, as it's made in the UK, and has been thoroughly lab tested, and also contains dht blockers, it's had a lot of awesome reviews
Trying it now mate. Hope it works.
I used it twice so far and can say it makes your hair feel nice and opens up the follicles to feel thicker. Regrowth? Not sure yet... check back in a few months ;)
Jessica Jugs Any regrowth?
suh dude
U alive bruh
I think she's dead😢
Thanks 4 sharing man... Like u said, an empty Placebo only...... keep experimenting and sharing 👍
My hair is thin due to medicine and poor health, what I do is wet my hair and shampoo my scalp and hair and sit with it on for 8mins out the shower, then go and wash it off with lukewarm water not boiling and it works much better to leave it on I find. Might not be factual but for me I feel it works better
Just use 1.5ml of minoxidil 5% on beard hairline and beard every night. Use 5000mgc biotin supplements once a day. And apply enough natural coconut oil each morning on hair and beard.
Most of all, DRINK A LOT OF WATER.
In six months, you'll be good.
I did it, and I have full beard, for someone who wasn't even genetically destined to have a goatee. At 23, I remember having 12 strands of hair on my chin. So...
Kiddo, we are talking about hair on scalp. Not fkn beard.
I agree about Strongjack. Such a good product
How can it be a Placebo effect if people can actually see a noticeable difference?
They can travel in space and build great things but humans carnt still find a cure to keep a man from losein his hair what a joke ha
Sorry to hear that. Great videos mate
+Habib Zafar thanks Habib!
hi mate thanks for the video, I use MSM powder and Boron really helps
Thanks ben
I disregard everything said in a video as soon as there is a product linked in the description.
Don't waste your time with caffeine shampoo as a stimulant, go the whole hog and get some Crack Shampoo worth losing your teeth for!
Wish i'd seen this before splashing out on the expensive Alpecin shampoo. Male pattern baldness runs in my family but i still have my hair although it's fine,frizzy & fragile.
Taking your advice,ditching the Alpecin & opting for the Nioxin.
Thanks for the vid.
Andy S hows it going now
It's Malcolm in the middle!
It's Jackie Chan!
If it worked, you'd need to be careful where it went. Don't get it on your nose! I'm no scientist, but I think hair follicles are fed from inside the body by blood vessels, so eating (or possibly injecting) something to stimulate hair growth would be more effective. But don't mess around with your hormones without the advice of a qualified physician.
Man u need to use NV7 blend oil, it's can help your skin looks better without these bobles
Obviously is topical caffeine not a thing that does wonders, but it has shown in clinical studies to help. You need to let it soak in also a bit and not to rinse it out immediately. The gold standard still is finasteride
Well done ben ....thanks mate..
Nioxin is really good
But.... only thing i was always told is to NOT wash your hair every day, only twice a week. Maybe if you’d be stopping with washing your hair 5 times a week, you’ll probably start seeing some good results
Because some people go less bald then others anyway. If they are one of them people who go less bald they might think the caffeine shampoo has stopped it being worse then it could be
Have you seen Prince William? If the fucking prince can't grow hair back, minimum wage peasants like us have no chance.
Works for me 😁
Strarbucks should bring out a shampoo and call it starlocks
Lol 😂😂
Because your hair will never sleep?
Good video. Thank you
So it doesn’t work that’s all you had to say
Buy a dermoroller a bottle of minoxidil and a lazer comb, boom this is the solution
Ive been using for my hair few years & my hair is still going.. its done nothing for me over the years its just a placebo . i think it’s getting better when really it isn’t.
Really ..? I am so stressed out of my thinning hair...
LOVE that shirt!
1st photo: After
2nd photo: Before.
BS it stopped my DHT since i was using testorone..You have to use it longer than 5 months or 6..You will see wonders..I actually stopped using it cos my hair was thicker and no hairfall for years..
I've stopped receding for now but but my hair is fine on top and when i have my hair cut you can really see big area of my scalp which resembles a bald patch. I may try Nioxin.
Some people stop going more bald with out the smampoo. Some people end up going less bald anyway
