Is baldness hereditary?
To some extent, but this does not mean that it is impossible to treat. Environment, stress and even your personality can play a role. Genetics are also said to play a part in baldness. However, Hair Fantastiques success rate with thinning hair and male patter baldness is very high.

What can cause premature baldness?
Premature baldness can be caused by friction alopecia.

Vigorous towel drying can literally 'rub away' hair.

Stress during school senior years when peer pressure is high and the competition is fierce can contribute to this. Bad diet and sleep depravation also play a large. The need to push oneself to the limit can also contribute. One needs to be conscious of what is occurring in the nervous system and to take steps to rectify the situation. Vitamin B supplementation and less pressure can help, as well as more sleep. Everything in moderation is a good thing. The sooner you get on to the Wonder Hair Treatment program the better and faster the hair will recover.

Dihydrotestosterone; what is it?
The bulk of the male hormone testosterone is produced in the testes. This helps to produce pubic hair, under arm hair, facial hair, ears, nostril, chins, chest, as well as on the arms legs and the body. It is believed that Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) shrinks certain target hair follicles in the head.
"I am not convinced of this. I personally feel that an enzyme 5 Alpha Reductace is the real culprit. (5AR) is what metabolizes testosterone into its derivative (DHT) their are many conflicting views however, with some recent scientific papers suggesting that it does not play a significant role in hair loss. Hair Fantastique's Wonder Hair Intensive Treatment tends to be absorbed into the root sack acting as a blocker against these enzymes and helps to regenerate the inactive matrix by strengthening the re growth cycle, thus getting the cycle back on track ."

Is it true that once the hair follicle dies hair cannot re grow?
"Quite honestly I cannot agree with this . I have seen men regain their hair after up to 25 years of losing it and according to their doctors they have been told that once the hair follicles have atrophied there is nothing they can do. I have been able to reverse this so called process with the Hair Fantastique hair loss program. I would not make such a statement if the evidence was not there. "

I have had no success with this pattern of baldness and in this case I do not recommend the program. "

What are the other causes of hair loss?
" In my experience there are many.

Trauma can play a big part in different types of alopecia.

Alopecia areata; starts with a small patch on the head.

It is quite common that this can grow back again spontaneously. The trauma brought on by the thought of going bald causes tremendous stress to the patient.

When the patient consults the doctor blood tests are usually taken to establish the cause. The diagnoses are often not established and invariably it is put down to stress. Vitamin supplements are advised and possibly an ointment of some kind. If the patient does not get a quick fix solution they tend to stress more, resulting in more patches forming.

The treatment that is prescribed is sometimes more traumatic than the cause. This leads to stress and the problem becomes worse. The lack of understanding of the causecan lead to trial and error. If the patient does not respond to the treatment they become disillusioned and the trauma they experience leads to the problem worsening.

In some cases, the client becomes totally bald (alopecia totalis). This could have been avoided if Hair Fantastique's Wonder Hair Treatment had been used when the first patch appeared. Once the hair starts to grow back .the cause can be investigated and addressed while the hair loss is being arrested and this gives the client a better sense of well being. "
