Brief Answer:
Use Pabatab-bz for pre-mature grey hairs.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Welcome to health care magic

I have gone through your query and understood the concern about grey hair and hair fall.

Premature graying of hair and hair fall could be related to multiple factors like hormones, stress or using cosmetic products (For ex. hair dyes), certain medications, genetics, nutrition/diet issues or thyroid or rarely pituitary abnormality or Vitamin B12 deficiency.

So,it would be better you should be go for blood investigations like routine blood counts, Thyroid profile, Growth hormone levels, Vitamin B12 levels, serum calcium to rule out above causes.

Correction of the hormone might be required if some abnormality detected in blood tests.

1) For Premature Greying of hair:

I would advise to use Pabatab-bz (as it contains Para aminobenzoic acid, biotin and calcium panthotenate) daily once for minimum 6 months.

These supplements are necessary for hair and it helps in preventing premature graying of hair.

You can also apply 'Altris gel' which contains melitane which prevents and reverses graying of hair by stimulating melanin production.

Avoid caffeine containing drinks and smoking if you do.

Eat plenty of fresh fruits and spinach. Take protein rich diet like egg, pulses, fruits, green leafy vegetables are helpful and remain stress free which would also be helpful for hair fall prevention.

All these drugs are prescription based and should be taken under strict medical prescription of a doctor preferably a dermatologist.

2) For hair fall prevention:

Use shampoo and conditioner on regular basis and use of coconut oil to the hair.

Avoid combing in wet hair rather, dry them with towel and then do combing.

Avoid blow dryers and hair color or dyes.

Hope this detailed information will be helpful.

Brief Answer:
Yes,

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for the response.

Yes,you may also use Folica Hair solution since it is used to induce hair growth in certain scalp disorders like alopecia areata.

You need to apply it in clean head after you have washed your hair and dried but DO NOT use it without your doctor's advise as it may sometimes cause some side effects.

Hope this helps.

Brief Answer:
Bio vegetal hair colors

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for the reply.

Ammonia containing hair colors should better be avoided as they do cause increased hair shedding in some individuals.

You could try an organic hair color, e.g Bio- Vegetal hair color, which is ammonia free and therefore expected to be free from this side effect.

Loreal exellance creme is also a good alternative and better than other hair dyes.
