Let's Talk: Hair Thinning & Hair Loss

Don't get me wrong, I love writing about the latest lipstick (important stuff, right?), but I also find it necessary to bring attention to beauty issues many of us face, or could face in the future. 

Let's talk about heredity hair thinning and hair loss. And especially how Women’s ROGAINE® Foam can help.

Think you're too young to think about hair loss and hair thinning? Think again. Up to 42% of women will experience some hair loss. One in three will have hair thinning. And out of those, 76% will occur after the age of 30. (source: 2014 Gallup)

Those statistics grabbed my curiosity, since I'm in my 30s. I wanted to find out as much as I could and see if there were any solutions for hair regrowth. I wanted to provide my readers with the best information as possible, so I turned to an expert. 

I got to interview celebrity hairstylist Jill Crosby about hair loss and hair thinning:

1-What causes thinning hair?

There are many different contributors that can cause hair loss and thinning hair...stress, lifestyle, medications, diet and of course there’s hereditary hair loss, which is passed down from your mother or father’s side of the family.


2-When does hair loss generally start?

For women, hair loss can start as early as your 20's, even earlier in some cases and then peak again in your 40’s.


3-What can we do for thinning hair?

If you believe you are experiencing thinning or hair loss, the best thing you can do is to begin a treatment program. With an efficacy rate of 81%, I always recommend  Women’s ROGAINE® Foam—it’s a regrowth treatment clinically proven to regrow 25% more hair with new hairs growing in up to 48% thicker than before.

And if left untreated, it can worsen over time.

Some surprising info, right? So once I had the info, I was really interested in the Women’s ROGAINE® Foam as a possible solution. Women’s ROGAINE® 5% Minoxidil Topical Aerosol is the first and only FDA-approved once daily treatment. It turns out, Women’s ROGAINE® Foam is super easy to fit into your daily beauty regimen.

To apply, simply dispense the product onto a non-porous surface, part hair to help maximize scalp
exposure and massage it into the scalp and allow to dry. You can get more application details here. Your hair won't get greasy or weighed down.

It works right alongside your regular beauty products--I really liked knowing that you don't have to change your routine, or change your all of your products, just add an easy and fast step. If you have color treated hair, you can use this! You can use it morning or night. And if used daily, results should start in 12 weeks.

I encourage you to find out more and try it for yourself if you're experiencing thinning hair or heredity hair loss.
