Marta at Truth In Aging has developed a line for thinning hair/balding for women

Seriously? Over 100 views and no one else is interested in this? Apparently I'm the only one who is losing hair. I guess I'll know where NOT to come for advice! :-) I'm really surprised -- and happy for you all who don't have this problem!

I am surprised too as there are alot of posts on these forums about ladies losing their hair duet to meds, menopause or illness or that have thin hair after menopause, etc.

Anyway, I don't have this issue (yet?? ) but I hope it works for you. I am sure it is so disheartening going from lush hair to thin hair.

I'm afraid it's probably because copper peptides and emu oil are old news and don't work.

The boards are mostly deserted so not a lot of action on any threads that I can see.

I'll be interested in hearing your results. You certainly aren't alone in the hair dept.!

I'm interested in the subject, but didn't click on the link because I've used copper peptides on my hair (Dr Pickard) and it wasn't good for blondes. I don't use emu oil because it's an animal product. So, the subject caught my interest but I don't plan to investigate this line. Sorry! Thanks for posting it though.

My current program is to keep my scalp as clean as possible and refrain from using irritating and clogging ingredients. I'm having good results using less products. A decent shampoo, very little conditioner if any, no styling products if at all possible. Check any meds used, either OTC or Rx, for possible hair loss side effects.

I am interested in the subject also. My hair has always been plentiful but very fine and since menopause, it does look a bit thinner, which is kind of alarming. It's OK for now and I want to keep it that way.

My mom's hair really thinned as she got older, and I definitely want to avoid it if I can.

It doesn't happen to everybody, HD -- so don't worry that you're destined to walk this way. :-)

Why are you not interested in minoxidil which is proven to work and instead are willing to use something that doesn't work?

I didn't know that -- thought it was a new breakthrough in a ""natural"" treatment. :-(
