Testimonials from Clients

I had first used Folligen Spray on my eyebrows and absolutely noticed them filling in. Then I did my eyelashes, and am pretty sure they filled in -it's just hard to remember for sure the before look. I use it on a Q-tip along the lash line during the day (at night it irritates my eyes), maybe 2x/week.

I then used Folligen Spray along the entire front hairline, maybe 3x a week for almost exactly a year now - mostly as a harmless experiment to help prevent/reverse a few gray hairs (not visible to anyone but me).

Although I can't say I've seen a color change (yet), I did notice a bit of new hair growth after a few months, thought it was cool, and then continued, mostly to hopefully to at least prevent the gray.

Yesterday I was brushing my hair and couldn't figure out why the bottom layer of my bangs were so darn short - a full 2 inches shorter than the rest of my bangs. I NEVER cut them that short. I then realized that it was because it was the FRONT hairline that had filled in and grown a full 3 inches long in a year. And it was more than a few strands, it was a section of hair.

What a testament to Folligen, I am extremely impressed... Very very exciting. So glad I stuck it out.

Sometimes I added Emu Oil for Skin on top, but only did it every 2 weeks or so. This was truly the Folligen Spray... Thanks Dr. Pickard!

I too can attest to NEW hair growth from using Folligen Spray. I do not have any serious hair issues or graying but noticed a slight thinning on one of my temples... So a I spray a little Folligen each day on my hairline & part after shampooing & sure enough - over a period of a few months, I started to notice the baby fine hairs growing & filling in the area.

Bottom line is that Folligen does work in growing new hair. Taking MSM & Copper supplements may help with overall hair health & any graying.

Due to the side effects of strong drugs to combat rheumatism, my hair, which is chemically straightened, became dull, dry and brittle. It was breaking all over and thinning. I tried different treatments including hair oils and vitamin supplements without any improvement. I surfed the internet on several websites looking for products while checking out their reviews by consumers, going to different blogs on hair issues till I stumbled on an article that raved about Dr. Pickart’s copper-peptide skin care studies.

Among his products, I found the Hair Signals Therapy Solution which seemed to treat my problem, confirmed the authenticity of their claims from other science related sites and ordered it. The order was received promptly to my address in Kenya. Upon using the solution as directed, I noticed its effects in just two days.

First there was no hair on my comb, then my hair was significantly less dull with a slight sheen that is also attributed to emu oil for hair from them. In two weeks, I noticed my front hair was longer than usual meaning less breakage. When I went for a retouch my hairdresser commented on the thickness of the hair strands and the longer size of growth. This shows the thinning problem was arrested. T

T rue to their claim the hair shaft had thickened and hair growth accelerated. Furthermore, a little goes a long way as I used less than half bottle in a month... I would advise anyone with any hair or skin problems to try these products."

I recently went in for a haircut... [My stylist] was besides himself because my hair had so much body and shine. He said that whatever I'm doing, I'm doing it right. I've been using Folligen Shampoo and Conditioner for just a few months now. In fact, I'm only half way down my first bottle of shampoo. When I shower, I shampoo my hair first then mix a few drops of Emu Oil-S for Hair into a nickle sized amount of conditioner before working into my hair. I leave the product in while I shower and then rinse off before getting out. I also use Folligen Spray daily because my hair started thinning after I turned 50. I'd just like to thank you for a head of hair that looks and feels better than it did when I was a teenager. Thank you Dr. Pickart and Skin Biology.

This note is with all sincerity to you Dr. Pickart. I have been losing my hair for 10 plus years now, first noticed by my hairdresser. I have been to doctor after doctor. First biopsy as done; was told that it was not alopecia. Second, topical treatments were given; none worked. Third, steroids through scalp; no noticeable difference. After a while, was recommended to a specialist who did freezing to scalp; no noticeable difference... My hair was bare in the middle of my head so I had to leave the top long to cover up, which was not hard since my hair grew everywhere else.

I am happy to say Thank You to you for the superb product. Of course, I googled this product for much needed information everyday before usage and rarely thought that feedback was for real. I am here to tell anyone reading this that this product is for real... My middle is filling in well with no side effects. My scalp is soothing with no sores or pimples and hair is finally manageable. So I would like to say "THIS STUFF REALLY WORKS". I have only been using for 3 weeks and I have gone from bare to coverage. I still have an area that is taking longer to deal with but it too is covering. I only started with your starter kit. Will be ordering more product soon. Thank you again and again and again.

H.S.

I have been using Skin Biology products for both skin and hair for a year with excellent results. As a pre menopausal woman, age 54, I experienced moderate hair loss. I am using progesterone cream to control hot flashes with very good success and hormone tests indicate my estrogen level is normal.

New growth at the hair line has been significant, but at the back of the crown, especially it seems at the "cowlick" area, there is still some embarrassing thinning. I use both minoxidil and Folligen spray two times a day and your shampoo and conditioner which is superb, by the way. I use the extra strength minoxidil at night. Do you have any further suggestions? Would retin A applied to the scalp help? I was using Dr. Lowenbrau's formula ( hair spray) which as you probably know has both minoxidil and Retin A in it for a while before I discovered skin biology products, but it is too expensive. Thank you for any advice you might have.

Women Hair Concerns:

Most hair loss in women is normally due to scalp damage due to perms, coloring dyes, relaxers, using too much heat when drying hair, overuse of shampoos, tight buns or pony-tails, and overcutting (long hair is healthier). The chemical salts and dyes in eyebrow and eyelash make ups often produce a severe loss of eyebrows and eyelashes by age 40 in many women. Psychological stress or hormonal shifts such a menopausal changes or stopping the use of birth control pills can also cause temporary hair loss.

If you look at old photographs of families from about 1880, you will see that many women of age 60 still had long healthy hair in an era before modern hair care techniques. In poor areas on the world today, most mature women have healthier hair than in New York City.

Folligen is a non-drug product designed by Dr. Loren Pickart formulated to boost the health of your hair.

Folligen can be used alone, or in combination with Emu Oil for Hair, or with Minoxidil.

Our Recommendations for Women

Our recommendations are:

Start with Copper Peptides:
Folligen Lotion, Folligen Cream, Folligen Spray
Hair Signals Solution or Hair Signals Cream:

 

We recommend using Folligen four to five times a week as a light coating applied before bedtime.

 

Emu Oil Can Help

Many of our customers have reported that the combination of Folligen and emu oil often reverse hair loss and improve hair growth. Recently, Dr. Michael Holick (Boston University Medical Center) reported a clinical study that found emu oil accelerated skin regeneration and also stimulated hair growth. He wrote - "The hair follicles were more robust, the skin thickness was remarkably increased... Also, we discovered in the same test that over 80 percent of hair follicles that had been 'asleep' were awakened, and began growing hair".

Minoxidil (2% or 5%)

For more hair stimulation, add in 2% Minoxidil. This can be progressively increased to Minoxidil 5%. Sometimes minoxidil produces scalp irritation. If this happens, stop the minoxidil and use only Folligen until your scalp health is restored. Then reuse the 2% minoxidil and the 5% minoxidil if your scalp remains healthy. Prof. Hideo Uno, one of the world's top scientists on hair growth and who wrote the textbook on Rogaine, found SRCPs and minoxidil work together to produce increased hair growth.

Addition of Retinoic Acid (useful range 0.01 to 0.05%) gives further hair stimulation but may irritate the scalp.

Retinoic acid (Retin-A) helps produce thicker hair shafts when used with minoxidil. This combination appears to be one of the better current approaches to hair regrowth. The major drawback is an often strong scalp irritation. Folligen, used lightly, can greatly reduce this irritation. Sometimes, the combination of minoxidil and retinoic acid causes breaks in the skin barrier.

Addition of estrogen or other DHT blockers may help in some cases

Estrogens, the feminizing hormones, can inhibit or counteract the follicle-shrinking effect of the androgens. Women have more estrogens circulating in their blood than men. As a result of this higher level of estrogens, even women having a genetic predisposition for pattern hair loss are protected from losing their hair because of the high level of estrogens in their blood. When these women reach menopause however, their estrogen level may decrease sufficiently, and the protective effect of the estrogen may be overridden by the DHT message. Then hair can begin to thin, sometimes rapidly. Some women who are genetically pre-disposed to have pattern hair loss.

Estrogen supplementation can raise are estrogen levels, and help restore the emotional and physical condition of the patient to the pre-menopause states. It may also slow or stop hair loss triggered by menopause. While hormone replacement therapy has been a controversial treatment for menopause, newer methods are finding overall reductions both in the risk of some cancers and in the risk of heart diseases.

The best known DHT (dihydrotestosterone) blocker is Propecia®, the drug from Merck, but Merck does not recommend Propecia for women: a one year study of hair growth in 136 post-menopausal women found no significant effect of Propecia on hair growth.

Non-drug natural DHT blockers include saw palmetto oil, pygeum and nettle root extract, the isoflavones genistein and daidzien, and ginkgo biloba.

Saw palmetto has been used for over 400 years as a herbal treatment for enuresis, nocturia, atrophy of the testes, impotence, inflammation of the prostate, and as a mild aphrodisiac for men. Women used the berries to treat infertility, painful periods and problems with lactation.

Extracts of two plants, pygeum bark (Pygeum africanum) and nettle root (Urtica dioica) are widely used for the treatment of prostate hyperplasia. Pygeum africanum is a featured ingredient in our updated copper-peptide product Hair Signals Solution and Hair Signals Cream, added to block DHT.

Isoflavonoids, such as genistein and daidzein are weak estrogens and may lessen the risk of osteoporosis and heart disease. Several studies have found a protective effect of isoflavones against the development of cancer. The Chinese report that daidzien exhibits hair growth and hair color promoting activity. Some Folligen users have reported good hair regrowth when combined with oral intake of bioflavinoids.

Ginkgo biloba is a popular herb used world wide to improve cerebral blood flow and general blood circulation. It was recently reported by the Journal of the American Medical Association to slow the progression of Alzheimer's disease. It has been reported to inhibit 5-alpha reductase activity.

High level exercise training may cause hair loss

In women, severe exercise tends to reduce estrogen and raise testosterone. This can lead to a stopping of the menstrual cycle and more brittle bones. While there are many positive aspects of exercise training, this effect on hair should be kept in mind since it can increase the rate of hair loss.

Sudden hormone shifts can cause hair loss

In women hair loss can become severe after giving birth to a child or after discontinuation of oral contraceptives (birth control pills). The In these cases, a brief therapy with hair stimulators can usually restore hair to its previous condition.

 

Bleached, or very blond hair may pick up a green tint if Folligen is in contact with the hair. This is similar to the greenish-tint that may occur after spending time in swimming pools. The blue color can be removed with a solution of 1 part of lemon juice and 4 parts of water.

If the coloring is a problem, then use Folligen for Blondes which has no blue color.

Use Emu Oil S Lipid Replenisher on top to facilitate penetration.

Discontinue minoxidil if you experience irritation.

Typical results take approximately 4-6 weeks of consistent use.
