My personal hair growth success, I myself adhered to this daily regimen: Take morning sunshine every day for vitamin D. Eat vegetables of different colors. Using paraben-free and fragrance free shampoo and massaging two times per week with hair oil by litttleextra cooconion. Important to keep in mind that hair growth is influenced by general health as well as circulation and nutrition.
Adding a drop or two of rosemary oil to my shampoo and letting it sit for a couple minutes on my scalp twice a week has been a game changer. Although I'm not quite sure what caused me to lose 1/3 of my hair two years ago (likely hormonal) using rosemary - in addition to tea tree oil to help with oil production - improved my hair count and volume. Go plants!

Time stamps are not bad, but a bit overrated, and often not used by consumers of content that much, if I may speak from my own experience. I mean with Mike's straightforward vids that are usually below the 15 to 20 minute mark and cover just one topic they are not that necessary, I think. Creators of longer vids of 30 minutes and more with many subjects (like rating 24 contestants of a show one by one, or unpacking and showing 9 different products one after another) have a good reason to put time stamps for their fans for better structure and search in their video, jumping forward to your fav, etc. Which brings me to the idea that there's a void in the market for a "Stamper", an app that will time stamp your videos for you! LOL! Just my 2 cents. :)

From what I've read about the rice water ferment, it's the inositol fraction that stimulates hair follicles? Inositol is water soluble, part of the B vitamin complex, and has also been used to combat some of the side effects of PCOS, of which male pattern alopecia is one. I would stay clear of rice bran oil, bc that's where the arsenic that rice preferentially absorbs is found, and being an oil, would not contain inositol. Just my two cents... 🌱
Hi, I was in my late fifties and had a Norwood 7 level type of hair loss, meaning slick bald on most of my scalp and diffuse thinning on all the rest of my head. Then about 9 months ago I started daily massaging of my scalp with topical caffeine, peppermint oil and Rosemary oil, as I saw some hair regrowth. But then I started using a Derma roller (at 1.5 mm length) on my scalp as this gave me even greater gains. With in the third month I started using topical finasteride with daily oral minoxidil at 2.5 Mg sublingually and I also started using a laser cap. I now believe that daily Derma rolling or micro needling is a must for the first 5 months when you start out, as I suspect that this must promote growth factors like small amounts of exosomes when you damage your hair follicles through micro needling or Derma rolling. After doing all of these things couple with a whole food plant based diet I have transitioned from a Norwood 7 to a Norwood 5 level. Which means I've got a nice amount of hair regrowth on my scalp and these new hairs are darker. Most people who are a Norwood 7 will not see any if little hair regrowth even if they are on the most aggressive forms of treatments. As I believe it's a whole food plant based diet that helped me be a better responder to all of this. Believe in yourself and you can do this, Garrick Quinones

@@cdtpal3061 You definitely can, but the speed and amount of hair regrowth will be limited to small thin vellus hairs. Think of it as stacking on these treatments and by doing so this can help the most.

One of my concerns with oral drugs is how it will affect your gut biome in the long run as it pertains to our health.

Thanks for the countinous effort you put into your KZread videos. I love that you cover such a wide spectrum of topics. I never thought that a random video about hair loss remedies could help me with my latest struggles beeing a vegan. Since I have to deal with some diffuse but persistant health problems (probably stress related), including phases of hair loss, I really questioned my vegan diet lately. As you have perfectly described in your "ex vegan exhale" video the possibility that you are causing your problems yourself by beeing vegan can cause a lot of extra stress. I even tried to incorporate some vegetarian products into my diet. Hated it. Gave up after one week. Just needed a reminder to better rely on facts and science instead of the subjective experience that non-vegans are generally doing better than me health wise (and otherwise). Myself beeing the only vegan I know personally. Oh. My doctor never suggested to change my diet btw... Hope you continue what your doing. ❤

Mic, I don’t know about hair loss but wanted to mention that using “The Daily Dozen” vegan food guide along with some daily exercise has helped me lose quit a bit of weight in a rather short period of time. I don’t have an exact figure but it is maybe 20 pounds or more in about 2 months. Still have at least 10 more to lose and am being quite regimented in meeting the Daily Dozen goals which makes it PRACTICAL to be a Vegan. Thanks for your videos!
I took a one year holiday. Did some casual work to make some coin to support my holiday, lived in another country, away from everything I know, didn't have a phone, no internet connection, and focused on doing the stuff I enjoy doing... when I came back, my best friend was immediately surprised, my thinning hair had all grown back. Then I went back to the daily grind etc. of this life, and slowly it thinned out again. I never felt like I had any stress, but when on holiday a number of months is, I just felt SO relaxed and like so much stress that I didn't know was there just lifted off of me... I think it was the lack of stress that did it for me after considering all other possibilities.

Hey Mic! I just wanted to let you and your audience know, it’s a common misconception that baldness only comes from your mother’s side 0:58 - other factors are also in play. The hereditary factor is slightly more dominant on the mother’s side, but research suggests that men who have a bald father are far more likely to develop male pattern baldness than those who don't. It almost an even split in possibilities- No need to blame just our moms. 😊

Can attest this ia true, everyone on my mothers side has amazing hair, as did I, several years ago. I started losing hair at 23-24 and still ongoing (still no exact reason for this, despite tests).
There is an herb used in India called Neem🌿 It can be gotten online or at brick & mortar stores that specialize in near and far east cuisine. That herb is wonderful as well for hair growth.
There's alot of research on peppermint and menthol, as well. Interestingly enough, menthol used to be a common ingredient in old-fashioned hair tonics. Another good plant ingredient is quinine, which used to be used in Victorian hair tonics, such as Eau de Quinine. It definitely has a stimulating effect on the scalp. Personally, I use Nizoral shampoo and Yanagiya hair tonic, a Japanese hair tonic that has menthol, ginseng, licorice, and several traditional medicine herbs. It seems to have slowed the rate of hair loss quite a bit.

I've been using rosemary oil for a few months and my scalp is much less irritated, I assume I'll see the hair benefits once I've been using it long term.
I make a tea for for other health reasons but one of the ingredients is tumeric powder and I drink it for about a week then take a break and start up again. My wife noticed that the bald spot on my head has more hair. So I may drink my tea more often. It is mainly a detox tea that also boosts metabolism I lost about 10 lbs in a month. Now I am also eating better, less magnesium which I understand can cause hair loss if you have too much of it so always filtered water for drinking and coffee. Very hard water where we live.I also started exercising to keep that weight off.

Regarding curcumin -- I find that really interesting. Of all the benefits I've read about it, I'd not heard of it being good for hair growth. I've been taking pure curcumin (not tumeric) for several years; and, I can testify that, for me, it has done zero for my hair. As for rosemary, years ago I read about it, and it was said that treating your hair with it is what works (and at high concentrations), so just washing with it isn't going to do much. It said that for some benefit, though, to use it in a hair rinse after the shampooing, and then to not rinse it off will help. Nice research!
Thanks. I remember reading some years ago about some promising research in Japan using immature green apple peel. Apparently it contains procyanidin B-2 which may work similarly to ECGC from green tea as they are both plant polyphenols. Apparently zinc is involved too and the largest amount is stored in the prostate gland. Zinc is known to attenuate the effects of 5 alpha reductase. Thanks again, that was very interesting!

Rosemary oil seems to have severely cut down on hairs lost on a daily basis.
I would also add to get your vitamin levels checks, especially for B12, vitamin D, and iron. thyroid checks are also important if are you having hair loss. keep in mind, losing up to 100-150 hairs a day is considered a normal amount of shedding.
