Although many trials have been conducted by medical specialists and involving several hundred people, for ease of reference we have chosen to document only one of the smaller trials in detail. See below. 
Clinical Trials - Men

Go:

Thirty volunteers with various patterns of Hair loss were treated with "Hair Fantastique's Wonder Hair Treatment" in conjunction with Hair Fantastique's Anti-Dandruff and Gentle Touch shampoos as appropriate. Anti-Dandruff was only used by patients suffering scalp infections i.e sebbhorea, phsoriasis and dandruff. Only after patients scalps were cleared did we embark on trials using Hair Fantastique Wonder Hair in conjunction with Gentle Touch Shampoo. Scalp disorders such as the above mentioned needed a maintenance program with intermittent use of Anti-Dandruff shampoo as these problems are controllable by coal tar based shampoo i.e. Hair Fantastique's Anti-Dandruff shampoo.

The participants were seen at monthly or two monthly intervals, at which time they were assessed. The following parameters were assessed at each visit.

    1. General scalp condition

    2. General hair condition

    3. New hair growth

    4. Side effects to treatment

The participants aged between 3 years and 62 years were seen for a minimum of 4 months and a maximum of 11 months. During this time all participants showed an improvement in hair and scalp condition regardless of their balding patterns. New hair growth was seen in all and this regrowth matched pre-existing hair consistency and colour in all cases by completion of the study.

The only side effect noticed and brought to our attention was that of itching and one case of superficial folliculitus. The scalp itching was experienced by a number of participants and coincided with the appearance of new hair. No participant found this in any way incapacitating and no medical care was necessary. The itching stopped once hair growth was established. The superficial foliculitus required no medical attention and was most likely a result of scratching and scalp infection.

I am happy that all 30 volunteers showed improvement while using the product and importantly that no significant side effects to the treatment occurred.
