: : I can't really give any advice on this subject, but I just
wanted
: to
: : let you know I am in the exact same boat as you. My hair has
been
: : thinning over the past year or so (maybe more, hard to tell). I
am
: : also vegetarian, I hope that has nothing to do with it. I
continue
: : to use henna about every 4-6 weeks because I have also heard it
: would
: : either help or at least not make it worse. Have you tried
Pantene
: : Pro-V "Full and Thick". I haven't tried it yet but I plan on
it.
: : It's new and the commercial looks pretty good..hehe.. Let me
know
: if
: : you find anything that works. I loose a lot of hair in the
shower
: : too, and wash it every 2-3 days also. I havent actually counted
: but
: : I will next time. Hmmm.. Have you tried Rogaine for women. It's
: : supposed to be the only treatment really proven to work. I
looked
: in
: : to it and the only downside is that you have to use it twice a
day,
: : every day, FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE!! The upside is that if
you
: : stop using it, you will only lose the hair that you regrew from
the
: : Rogaine, not any more. And you can still use Henna with the
: : Rogaine. I'm not that desperate yet, but I'm getting close..
Good
: : luck!!

: 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.
