It was about a year ago, I started noticing significant hair loss.
Coincidentally, when I visited a hair salon, the stylist mentioned, "It looks like your hair is falling out. It's also quite thin." The salon owner then recommended the Alpecin Caffeine Shampoo.
Since then, I've been using this shampoo consistently and I've noticed that my hair loss has slowed down.
Product name : Alpecin Caffeine Shampoo C1
Manufactuer ; Dr. Wolff Group, a German company established in 1905 with over 110 years of experience in pharmaceutical and cosmetic research and manufacturiing.
Advertised beneficts/features : Contains a caffeine complex that energizes the scalp, aids in hair growth, and strengthen hair roots.
Feature ; 1) Made in Germany, as indicated on the product.
2) Alpecin is the market leader in men't hair loss shampoo in Germany.
Over 200 million bottles have been sold in more than 40 countries worldwide, included Germany, Austria, Switzerland, the UK, Hong Kong and Taiwan.
W/hen Dr.Wolff's laboratory director visted Korea, he made the following statement;
"Caffeine helps hair roots absorb the energy needed for growth, despite the attack from testosterone.
Genetic hair loss is not limited to traditional medical treatments;
Using Apecin products, which contain caffeine with no side effects, can be an alternative.
Using caffeine shampoo daily from a young age can greatly help sustain hair activation.
Alpecin can strengthen hair roots and prevent hair loss or weakening due to genetic factors."
Here are the benefits, usage instructions and potential side effects of Alpecin Caffeine shampoo:
1. Benefits
Alpecin Caffeine shampoo has been shown to increase blood flow to the scalp, delivering more oxygen and nutrients to hair follicles, which can help promote hair growth.
It stimulates the hair roots during shampooing, helping to prevent hair loss.
It also addresses scalp issues such as dandruff and itching by neutraiing Malassezia fungi, which cause dandruff.
Most people see noticeable results after using it regularly for 3 to 6 months.
2. Usage instructions
1) Thoroughly wet your hair and scalp with lukewarm water.
2) Apply a coin-sized amount of shampoo to your scalp.
3) Use your fingertips to gently massage your scalp in circular motions, distributing the shampoo evenly. Massageing the scalp for 1~2 minutes helps caffeine penetrate to the roots.
4) Leave the shampoo on your scalp for 2 minutes to allow caffeine to fully absorb.
5) Rinse your hair and scalp thoroughly with lukewarm water for at least 1 minute.
3. Continuous use
It is crucial to use the shampoo daily for at least 6 months.
Regular use continuously delivers caffeine to the scalp, contributing to healthy and vibrant hair growth.
4. My personal effects/benefits
Before using Alpecin, I could see significant hair loss, but about three months after starting its use, the hair loss has noticeably reduced.
While hair loss hasn't stopped entirely, the amout of hair falling out has significantly decreased.
My hair which used to be weak, now feels stronger.
5. Side Effect
There can be some side effects;;
- Scalp imitation leading to dryness and itching.
- In some cases, (the effect is the opposite of what I experienced) the shampoo's ingredients may cause hair thinning and loss, contrary to ints intended effects.
- Rarely, there can be allergic reactions to coffeine causing itching, hives, and other syptoms.
- Headaches or sleep disturbances : Caffeine absorption can cause headaches and stimulate the central nervous system, leading to sleep disorders.
6. additonal drawbacks
Here I am writing what I think, it is not good;
- When first opened, the shampoo can be difficult to cotrol, as it tends to come out in large amounts.
- It dosen't lather as much as other shampoos, making the washing experience less ennoyable.
- Waiting for 2 mibutes afer applying the shampoo can be inconvenient.
To manage this, I changed my routine to shave during the wait time.
7. other disadvantaagges
Compared to regular shampoos, it is relatively expensive for the volume.
Therefore, I buy in bulk duing discount event on Coupang and keep it stocked.
