I recently noticed that lots of my hair was coming out when I was washing it. I was chatting to my great aunt about my hair loss on the phone and she suggested this treatment. Mix red cayenne pepper with vodka and let it sit for a fortnight. Then strain through muslin or tights and apply to affected areas of the scalp. It's said this stimulates the scalp and encourages hair growth.

I don't think there's a miracle cure for hair loss but Regaine for Women seemed to stop my hair thinning so fast. It costs around £22.95 for 60ml

I have been suffering from hair loss since I started at university (At 18 years) and I am 35 now, I have tried countless remedies, pills, lotions, and the best effective method for me is Pill Food Plus or Pill Food normal, Follow the directions and you will see the results in two weeks' time.
