Receding hairlines, thinning hair and hair loss used to be an issue that’s associated to ageing and are more commonly experienced by men. However, more and more young women in their late 20s and 30s are experiencing hair loss sooner than expected. Fewer than 45 per cent of women live their lives with a head full of hair. Studies have shown that hair loss can be caused by numerous factors which include poor diet, hormonal changes, effects of medication, hair treatments and others.
Women who experienced hair loss often also experience psychological distress and impaired social functioning as a result of it. Hair loss can happen when more follicles than normal go from Anagen phase (growing phase) to Catagen phase (transition phase) and when these hairs reach the Exogen phase (shedding phase), hair will appear thinner. The Telogen phase (resting phase) takes place right after the Catagen phase and it is during this phase that new hair grows beneath the existing hair before it sheds. The Telogen phase lasts between three to four months. Therefore, it is important that we ensure proper nourishment on the hair scalp during the Anagen phase to promote thicker and stronger hair.
Recently I met many of my friends, sisters who told me that they had hair loss problem where I can see that they're getting Botak for male friends and women, bald at centre & back of their head. Seriously, so scary and true cases. They asked for my advise and I gave them tips how to take good care of their hair, starting from healthy scalp care 1st to buying the right shampoo, conditioner, hair mask and Megumi Anti Hair Loss Treatment Essence. I have used many in the market, now Megumi is my new best friend liao and I'm proud to shout it out to everyone that I care. Haha...It smells divine, feeling so cooling on my scalp after my daily shower and I'm looking forward to pamper my scalp with it everyday because I enjoy the super duper cooling effects on my scalp.
In addressing these hair issues, Rohto Pharmaceutical in Japan has recently found a breakthrough formula that could reduce hair loss and recover hair volume by using 50 precious natural herbal ingredients, which essentially gave the new product its name – 50 Megumi Anti Hair Loss Series. Among some of the 50 nourishing herbal ingredients found in the 50 Megumi products include:
@ Panax Ginseng and Ginger root extract to strengthen hair roots
· @ Swertia Japonica extract to protect against hairfall
· @ Hydrolised Collagen to prolong hair life cycle
· @ Natural orange and lemon extract to enhance deep penetration into scalp
The
other vital ingredients also include Shea Butter, Macadamia Seed Oil, Olive
Oil, Pine Cone Extract, Aloe Vera Extract, Sunflower Seed Oil, Seaweed Extract,
Caffeine, Pueraria Root Extract, Rosemary Extract and Jojoba Oil – all of which
also helps prevents hair loss and helps increase hair volume.
The
50 Megumi Anti Hair Loss Treatment Essence, 160ml (RM150.00) is a must-have
product in this Anti Hair Loss series. The treatment essence is an important
haircare step against hair loss prevention. Just like the essence that is
applied onto your face, the thin consistency of the treatment essence absorbs
instantly into the scalp and hair in delivering all the necessary nourishment
and nutrients needed. The 50 Megumi Anti Hair Loss Series includes an Anti Hair Loss Treatment as well as two variants of shampoo and conditioner namely, Moist and Fresh.
Works
as a leave-in treatment, the treatment essence helps to strengthen the roots of
the hair, increase hair volume and reduce hair loss. True, I can see the drastic improvement where I have 3 normal hair strands forming instead of 2 baby fine hair. My scalp is not so itchy like before, more moisturised now. Apply the treatment
essence after hair is cleansed and conditioned. Massage a small amount onto the
scalp and hair, and leave it to dry. The texture is light, watery and not
sticky therefore the hair feels light even after application. Moreover, the
citrusy scent of orange and lemon leaves the hair smelling fresh. For visible
results, apply the treatment essence at least twice daily continuously for up
to four months on dry or wet hair before styling. To achieve optimal results
against hair loss, the treatment essence is best paired with the 50 Megumi Anti
Hair Loss Shampoo and Conditioner series.
The
50 Megumi Anti Loss Shampoo and Conditioner work effectively to rejuvenate the
scalp, strengthen hair roots, boost hair volume, moisturise hair scalp, reduce
hair loss and protect hair colour. Enriched with 5 natural botanical oils, the
shampoos offer long lasting moisture retention and deep moisturisation to
strengthen hair roots as well as make hair appear thicker. Vitamin E and other
nourishing ingredients are also added to the shampoo formulation to improve
hair and scalp while the colour-locking formula helps to keep coloured hair
looking fresh. The conditioners have similar functions as the shampoos but with
8 amino acids added, it is able to deeply nourish and moisturise the scalp
better while strengthening hair roots for silky smooth, thicker looking and
healthier hair. No joke about it, the hair scan result showed that I have new healthier hair forming and my hair is not so dry like Ranting Pokok like that.

50 Megumi Anti Hair Loss Shampoo - Moist, 250ml (RM50.00) and the 50 Megumi
Anti Hair Loss Conditioner – Moist, 250ml

Hope they will bring this mask to Malaysia soon because it's one of the best facial sheet mask I had ever used in my life!
