does it make you shed before new hair grows i.e Rogaine ?

It didn't make my hair grow at all and also it left my hair tangled so it was hard to brush my hair in the morning

I did not have any shedding which was great. I have not noticed a lot of new hair growth yet but that does not surprise me since your hair grows in a 3 mth. cycle. I am just excited that it is not falling out in handfuls and what does come out is just small, normal amounts. :) My hair looks very healthy. :) I hope that answered you question. I can not use Rogaine because of the chemicals in it that conflicts with my having leukemia (it is in remission) but I have to be careful not to use anything that might be absorbed into my system. That is another reason I am so thrilled with this shampoo !! Good luck I did not have any shedding which was great.

Personally I did not have any shedding, actually hairs started to fall less and less as I continued using the shampoo. That being said I am already using other hairloss products including rogaine, but after adding that shampoo to the current regiment i felt it boosted my results a bit. So i really think you have to stack it up, on it's own not sure it is that effective and let's face it, if shampoos had the power to halt hairloss on their own no one would be balding. Hope this helps!

From all the comparisons that I have read, yes. My hair thick and down to my waist. I still have had some hair loss and breakage but not as much and my hair isn't as frizzle. I use it more as a leave in conditioner twice a week.

Balding....I am not sure, I don't have this problem. But it does seem to help my thinning hair grow thicker, you can tell because the hair near my scalp is a lot thicker than my roots.

No. I bought it because my hair was thinning at the top from braids. I used it as the directions explained two drops a day. My hair started coming out from using it instead of growing in. I am completely bald on the top half of my head. When I called the company, they told me that I had to use a few bottles for it to work and hung up on me when I begin to complain that one bottle had made me bald.

No and its overly perfumed which makes more hair fall out!! Bottom line it makes chunks of hair fall out!!

My hair was a great color when I started using it. Now My hair is 50% GONE. 10 months and it is not recovering even using Rogaine. I have been in touch with the FDA about it. Don't chance it!!!

If your hair is breaking off, the starter pack products may make your hair healthier. If you are losing hair due to a medical problem, maybe not. There is no minoxidil in the starter products. That would be in other Bosley products that are formulated to regrow hair. My stylist commented that the condition of my hair was better.

When you start using it, your hair will likely feel thicker. Two weeks in, you'll probably notice you shed a significant bit less. Two months in, you might notice hair regrowth, depending on your hair loss. Hair loss in front tends to be a bit more on the "aggressive" side (as opposed to vertex loss). If you want to step it up a bit in efficacy, you can also use topical melatonin.

If you stop using once you have grown new hair, your new hair will eventually fall out within a few months (in some people their old hair also fell out). Once you start using minoxidil it is a long term commitment, this you must bear in mind before you emabark on using this.

I use it as a replacement for that. I do not like the quick shed that results from Rogaine.

Yes. Nothing works overnight so be patient and keep your expectations in check. First two weeks, you should see a reduction in shedding and breakage. Then you'll notice new growth returning. Now once that happens, you have to be committed to healthy maintenance of your hair. That means hairstyles that pull, rip or tear at the hair, and keep yourself hydrated. Good luck.

Yes,I have tried Rogaine before the Hair Volume vitamen.I no longer use either,but for me,the Rogaine did work better.Everyone has different reaction to things.Read all lables.If you have any real bad health problems,or if you are wanting to try Rogaine or Hair Volume and not really sure about it,then consult your Dr.

its similar to using like a rogaine product when you stop using it you will begin to have hair as you did before

I had the same hair loss and shedding after I first started using Rogain, but now two months in the shedding has dramaticly stopped. Don't give up yet.

Yes. It does. Make sure you use the right heat for your type of hair and always use an anti break - lotion or thermal protection before. :)

No, I have used this product for 6 months, and I have definitely noticed greater thickness of the short hair at the nape of my neck. Mine is more than a foot long, so I expect to see the hair near the root to be affected first.
