Children are not being spared either. In other words, it is a boom time for sellers of hair loss products who look to treat baldness.

Most of these can be shampooed out after use. There are some herbal baldness remedies too that can act against hair loss. These are ginko biloba, green tea, polygonum multiflorum, pygeum, aloe vera, saw palmetto (serenoa repens), stinging nettle and resveratrol, a natural antioxidant found in grape skins. Some of these are available in tablet forms, while some are made into preparations that you massage into your scalp.Popular productsMinoxidil is a highly popular product used by many people for tackling hair loss problems and treating baldness in men and women.
