Emu Oil For Hairloss

Emu oil for hair loss / mpb.

I currently use dutasteride(.5) & Nizoral(eod) to prevent aggrivation of mpb. I also recently completed a prop cycle and am currently in pct. I decided I wanted to do more to save my hair so I also added Emu Oil to my routine. I do not feel comfortable in saying weather any of these products ive used work yet as it has not been enough time. But since I have seen nothing on the forum about topical Emu I thought I would post what I know about it. This is NOT scientific

Interesting notes about Emu:::

-Is a DHT inhibitor
-it is BELIEVED(not fact) Emu Oil can regrow hair by stimulating/awakening the hair follicle. Also provides the scalps with healthy nutrients and acts as a moisturizer.
-Emu oil is better absorbed into the skin/scalp than most oils
-Is an anti-inflammantory which is good for skin/Scalp which might be why it also helps to regrow hair...some people even use it for joint pain relief to reduce swelling
-Emu supposedlyregrows hair not just in the back but frontal areas as well and seems most people notice growth within 30-90 days
-Some say it reduces thier stretchmarks as well.

The only thing i dont like so far is that the instructions call for you to use the emu shampoo 3 times a day....I use mine twice...anyway....if I notice any results ill def post it.

Online you can buy either pure Emu Oil & some companys even sell a "hair loss kit" which includes Emu shampoo/Conditioner/pure Emu. Its fairly inexpensive to buy but you most likely will want to buy "refined" Emu for 100% sanitary reasons.

Ok all i can think of for now lol..

Stick with the Dut and Nizoral. Never heard of Emu oil and hairloss.... well never any concrete studies on pubmed or anything really...

However watch out as I did a similar cycle and it was about 2 months later I lost a large amount of hair :-P

Agreed on the concrete studies part...but...There is nothing very concrete showing that Nizoral works. I think its just kind of one of these things that have been floating around this forum for a while. If im not mistaken thier was one human study that showed Nizoral increased hair thickness/growth. Those results have never been duplicated in any subsequent studies though. I have read some users say they think its helped...soo i will continue to use my nizoral for security reasons.

I am definatly not saying everyone should go online and buy Emu. But it may be worth it for some people who are looking for an alternative to thier current regimen. Not to mention that its good for a zillion other things. There is a lot of info online about it. A simple search for Emu Oil and hair loss should turn up some interesting results. Anyone who knows more about the topic/results/studies etc feel free to jump in.....

"According to clinical studies in Australia and the U.S, emu oil is an excellent anti-inflammatory agent that can rejuvenate skin cells and produce up to 80% in healthy hair growth. Specifically, emu oil can penetrate tissue cells faster and more effectively than most other mechanisms. The potential benefits of emu oil are numerous, it can be used to treat various kinds of hair conditions, arthritis, wrinkles, and other skin disorders such as Psoriasis and Eczema etc.

Emu oil is not commonly known in the U.S. While it has been used by many for combating hair loss in various parts of the world, FDA regulations in the U.S discourage anyone from marketing Emu oil for hair loss and as a result, it is not getting the attention that it derseves."
