Hair health questions, answered

Do hair supplements really work?

Supplements support hair when there is a nutritional gap, and nutrients such as iron, zinc, biotin and selenium are associated with normal hair. They are one part of a complete routine rather than a standalone fix, and results vary from person to person.

How long does a hair care routine take to show a difference?

Hair grows slowly, so most routines are given several months of consistent use before judging them. Consistency over time tends to matter more than any single product.

What ingredients does Dense Hair Experts use?

Dense formulas are built around named, researched ingredients such as Saw Palmetto, Pumpkin Seed, Panax Ginseng and key nutrients, chosen to support hair as part of a daily routine.

Is hair loss in men and women different?

The most common pattern hair loss differs between men and women, and other causes such as nutrition, stress, hormones and scalp health can affect both. A personalised approach helps identify what applies to you.

When should I see a pharmacist or GP about hair loss?

If hair loss is sudden, patchy, comes with other symptoms or does not settle over a few months, speak to a pharmacist or GP so underlying causes such as low iron or thyroid issues can be checked.
