Use code partner20 for 20% discount (not bundles or subscriptions). If you do subscribe, sign up for an account to earn discount rewards.
Whether you use our code or the subscription discount, it works out around just over £40 a month (no more than other quality hair health supplements, and more effective).
Just take 1 capsule daily with food, for at least 3 months to see results.
Feel Hair Support is made with Keranat™ (made from plants including millet seeds and lipids from sunflowers, safflower, rosemary and wheat kernels).
It’s the first scientifically proven ingredient to enter the hair bulb to stimulate hair growth, and can also strengthen hair from root to tip.
91% of women taking this supplement noticed a difference, compared to a placebo group. The outstanding results have been validated by 6 years of research, and 2 human clinical trials.
The supplement also contains biotin (vitamin B7), known for helping healthy hair. Thinning hair in women is often associated with lack of this vitamin.
How Long to Feel the Benefits?
It’s important to take Feel Hair Support for at least 3 months. This is because hair on our heads has growth cycles, with everyone losing 50 to 100 hairs a day.
So as the healthy new hair grows and old hairs fall out, you may feel that the supplement is having no effect. But it is!
After 12 weeks of consuming this supplement:
- 85% noticed a decrease in hair loss
- 85% noticed an increase in hair health
- 78% also noticed benefits to nails
Natural Remedies for Hair Loss
We all lose 50 to 100 hairs each day (at any one time, different hairs are dormant, growing or shedding). Over 15 million people in the UK have some kind of hair loss, whether that’s due to male pattern baldness, stress, nutritional deficiencies, pregnancy or drugs (like chemotherapy).
Male pattern baldness has affected around 80% of men by age 70, due to DHT (a chemical produced by testosterone). It nearly always affects the temple and crown of the head. There is no cure, so don’t worry – we love you as you are!
Female pattern baldness affects around 30% of women by age 70, and usually hormone-related (after menopause or due to stress). It tends to affect the top of the head.
Alopecia is a rare auto-immune condition where people lose all their hair (including eyebrows, eyelashes and body hair). Thankfully some well-known people affected (Gail Porter and Louis Theroux) have made it ‘okay to talk about’, if you don’t want to spend your life in wigs.
It can be genetics, but sometimes to do with thyroid conditions or lupus. Again it’s nearly always incurable.
Post-partum hair loss is common (nutrients needed for your baby are directed there, rather than for your hair). It’s nothing to worry about, and hair grows back soon after.
Tips to Help Prevent Common Hair Loss
If your hair loss is not due to male pattern baldness or alopecia, there are a few things you can do:
Don’t scrape hair into tight ponytails (this causes tension alopecia, common in ballet and ballroom dancers, as too much stress is placed at the hair line (people with African-African hair can also suffer, due to trends for tight braids and dreadlocks).
Leave your hair loose when possible, or make loose ponytails with plastic-free hair ties.
Relax! Stress can ‘push hair follicles’ into the resting phase, where they stay before falling out. If ‘growing hairs’ slow down, you could lose up to 300 hairs a day (compared to the average 100).
Common in people who have had Covid (and people who worry!) do what makes you feel good – sleep, walks, pray, yoga etc.
Give up fags and booze. Smoking cigarettes can double chances of early-onset alopecia (as can alcohol) due to increasing free radicals, and depriving hair follicles of vitamins and minerals. Read our posts on how to give up smoking and help for alcohol addiction.
There’s no point taking supplements to grow your hair, if you are smoking and drinking vitamins and minerals away, it’s a waste of your time and money.
Plastic-free brushes and combs circulate oils, rather than tearing the hair shaft. You don’t need oils, just massage your scalp for 5 minutes a day, to stimulate hair follicles.
Choose natural shampoos and conditioners. There is some evidence that modern foaming agents (like sodium lauryl sulphate found in most shampoos – used as engine degreaser for industry) is too harsh, and could cause hair loss or slow hair growth). Also choose natural hair dyes for the same reason.
Cut your hair off! If your hair is very damaged from over-processing or too many hair dyes, often the damage travels up to the roots. In some cases, your best bet is to just bite the bullet, and chop your hair off short, and start again. Your hair will likely grow quicker!
