Actually I’ve been a vegeterian for many years and the major hair
loss is more of a recent thing. I use to lose a few strands here and
there but nothing in comparison to what I am dealing with now
unfortunately. So I don't believe that is a problem. I used Pantene
years go but I like to switch my shampoos. It's funny you mentioned
Pantene becuase I was actually thinking of going back to it when I
saw a girl with gorgeous long hair recently and she told me she uses
Pantene. I have been using a jojoba shampoo and conditioner from
Nature’s Gate. Figured the jojoba can’t hurt. I also do jojoba oil
treatments once a week in addtion to the Hennaing once a month. My
hair is in very good condition, just very sparse. I am so scared to
wash my hair because that is when it falls out. I dread washing it
now and resort to every 2-3 days. On a rare occasion I can go to 4
days but that’s my limit. My doctor said I can try Rogaine, but for
myself I prefer the natural route so I probably wouldn’t do it. Also
once you stop Rogaine your hair goes back to the way it was.
