Hair care products and ingredients for managing hair loss

Hair loss and thinning hair can be caused by various factors, including stress, hormonal fluctuations, genetic predisposition, nutritional imbalances, and scalp irritation. While certain medical treatments like Minoxidil are available as drugs, commercial shampoos aim to support hair health through specific active ingredients.

Effective over-the-counter shampoos often utilize ingredients such as caffeine, biotin, or Aminexil to stimulate blood circulation and strengthen hair roots. Dermatologist Prof. Dr. Garcia Bartels notes that these products are most effective during the regeneration phase after the underlying causes of hair loss have been addressed. Some affordable drugstore options, priced between 5 and 7 euros, are highlighted for their ability to provide visible volume and improved hair appearance.
