Saw Palmetto (Serenoa Repens)
Found in:
TOPICAL OVERNIGHT OIL | DUO TOPICAL OIL & SERUM | HAIR RESTORATION KIT
What It Is
Saw Palmetto is a tropical palm-like small plant primarily found in North America and contains essential fatty acids required for the proper function of hair, skin and nails.
What It Does
The hormone byproduct of testosterone conversion is DHT (dihydrotestosterone). The enzyme 5-AR (5-alpha-reductase) is responsible for this conversion. DHT causes most hair loss in both men and women. A high essential fatty acid extract of saw palmetto berries has been shown to block 5-alpha-reductase, preventing the conversion of testosterone to DHT. This allows for free flowing testosterone within the body which is needed by all genders. The higher the extract percentage, the higher the medicinal value.
The Science
Saw palmetto has been shown in over 25 clinical trials to inhibit DHT in the body, improve urinary tract health, and support hair health. HAIRMETTO’s super-critical CO2-extraction retains 85-95% of the medicinal value of essential fatty acids. Learn more about how saw palmetto is an effective DHT blocker here.
Stinging Nettle
Found in:
TOPICAL DAY SERUM | DUO TOPICAL OIL & SERUM | HAIR RESTORATION KIT
What It Is
Stinging nettle is a plant that grows in North America, Europe, and Africa. It has been used as an herbal remedy for thousands of years.
What It Does
The most recognized health benefit of using stinging nettles is activity against the enzyme that causes both hair loss and enlarged prostate. In therapy, nettles are usually used in combination with saw palmetto.
Organic and alcohol-free, stinging nettle soothes dry, itchy scalp and combats hair loss with its anti-inflammatory properties.
The Science
Clinical studies show that stinging nettle combined with saw palmetto has the same positive effect on hormones responsible for enlarged prostate (and hair loss) as the #1 prescribed drug, Finasteride.
Japanese Peppermint
Found in:
TOPICAL DAY SERUM | DUO TOPICAL OIL & SERUM | HAIR RESTORATION KIT
What It Is
Japanese Peppermint has the highest concentration of Menthol (around 80%), responsible for the plant’s medicinal effects.
What It Does
Menthol also increases blood circulation to the follicles delivering oxygen and nutrients that feed the hair roots. It also has anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial and anti-fungal action – all of which aid in scalp health.
The Science
Research shows that topical use of menthol increases blood flow in the skin of humans and beats out minoxidil in the regrowth of hair.
Rosemary
Found in:
TOPICAL DAY SERUM | DUO TOPICAL OIL & SERUM | HAIR RESTORATION KIT
What It Is
Inside many plants—hidden in roots, seeds, flowers, and bark—are concentrated, highly potent chemical compounds. These natural compounds are essential oils.
What It Does
Rosemary essential oil is known for its antimicrobial properties, and is used for a variety of skin infections including eczema.
The Science
Dermatologists in Scotland gave an essential oil blend containing Rosemary to participants suffering from alopecia areata. After 7 months, almost half regrew as much as 50% of their hair, while a few regrew almost all of it back.
