it all started like this. i started to have insomnia a few months ago, and my diet hasnt been very healthy. i didnt exercise alot too, and when i exercise, i swim, which is bad for my hair. so thn i noticed that my hair dropped more than usual, and it has continued for weeks. it didnt help tt i feel so depress, even now, that the stress accumulates. my scalp itch and is flaky too, and my hair stylist told me that i've been using the wrong shampoo. THERE. tt's one major source for unhealthy scalp. he even told me something which i think i ought to share with u guys:
1) shampoo is for your scalp, not for the hair. especially in such a weather in singapore, u gotta pick the right shampoo for ur scalp. he also mentioned that conditioner is for your hair, so yep, this is the concept.
2) there r 4 major brands of shampoo in s'pore which do all the extensive advertisements you can see on TV. Dove, Pantene, Silkpro and..... i forgot haha. i think is sunsilk. these are the brands he condemned as the content of these shampoos are not suitable to use under s'pore's humid weather. adds humidity to ur hair, he says. before i hear this, however, my dad alrd told me not to "believe" in advertisements, becos only poor-selling products need to do advertisements, which is very true. it is like famous eateries donnid to promote how delicious their food is becos their reputation is alrd established.
and.. what else? i forgot. stm la. so anws ppl, PICK ur choice of SHAMPOO carefully!!! (btw above is his opinion, NOT MINE!)
ok, so after hearing what he said and undst the condition of my scalp, i was DESPERATE to get new shampoo that suits me. i went online to search for it and after looking at the reviews, i bought this:
Rene Furterer Shampoo for Thinning Hair
can u see the beady green particles inside? i always like to squeeze em when i'm washing my hair haha
yep! my honest opinions are: doesnt help much on preventing hair loss, but it did makes my hair looks healtheir and itchiness and flaky no more!!! =D however, i wont continue to use this shampoo la. doesnt sound as gd as i saw frm e reviews. AND its so ex for such a small bottle -_-
hope this entry helps a lil for friends who have thinning hair like me!! ;)
