I'm a hairdresser and have comprehensive scientific knowledge regarding hair loss of all kinds. Six weeks is an incredibly short period of time to see visible results of new hair growth. The follicle resting period of a hair cycle is around 3 months. The anagen (active growth phase), catogen (regressing phase), telogen (resting phase) and exogen (shedding phase) stages of the hair follicle process must be understood to realise how hair growth products work. I'd be looking for a period of at least 3 to 6 months before any success of a product can be determined to be working.
Hi. I can appreciate your skepticism given your expertise. Hair loss specialist Kelly Morrell discusses the speed of the results in this blog which you may find interesting calecimprofessional.com/blogs/blog/stem-cell-hair-revitalisation As I say in the video my husband didn’t feel his hair was thicker at 6 weeks but we could see a darkening of the scalp and changes to his thinning hair pattern which was more obvious by 8 weeks.
I just wanted to let you know that Candolad is correct on the telogen being the resting phase, and it’s not the shedding phase. I know people will read your comment instead of checking and will go around saying the wrong thing.
I own a wellness clinic and I’m a nurse practitioner. I administer PRP injections for hair loss. It works. In 4 weeks there significantly less hair loss. In two to three months there is hair growth. I suggest monthly treatments for 4-6 months then one every 3 months x2, then every 6 months. Due to aging I don’t think it’s a good idea to go to yearly.
I think the hair results are quite promising! I've been using the Professional serum and Multi Action Cream on my face for about 2 months and I really like them. I can't wait to give this hair serum a try 👍
I see this a little similar to prp hair therapy. Your own blood is rich in growth factors as well, and it's popular in many clinics to offer it as a hair loss therapy. I've tried it a few times, and it does work. This sounds promising to me.
Informative review, I enjoyed it quite a bit, Thankyou! Please do continue to post progress of your husband and your friend using this treatment. It will be interesting to see what the extent of improvement you can get from this treatment. Can’t wait!
Hi i can confirm you can use less and leave gaps and have no loss. Im disabled ill health and i have gaps and ive lost nothing. Also the half bottle was too much for me so i used 1/4 or my hair felt over wet. Im still having growth the areas started have not stopped ive been ill 6 weeks no stamping and its still growing away. Some of mines the front so its very visible! Im in love with this product also they take paypal in uk so i was able to spread the payment so less of a killer buying lol but i will not be stoping use but will continue as i am which is around once a week atm im happy with my results
Yes you can still achieve this benefit with rosemary oil, also u can make it at home with fresh rosemary. Micro needle and apply rosemary oil. Wash it after 24hrs. Do it once a week
Hi its not. I used various dermarollers and products before calecim and saw no growth. Ive got around 1 inch growth so far from calecim. Ive spent a fortune trying to get my hair back. Top hair clinic in london told me would never happen without minoxidil and boom i saw this and went ive not tried stem cell lets go. Its great. Ive actually not gone through any major loss either since
@@zaklay9399 I'm afraid your wrong my friend. Along with Minoxidil, and Finesteride, derma rolling on the scalp has been clinically proven to grow hair
You always have fascinating reviews - thank you Claire! There's definitely an improvement in the coverage of David's hair. I have experienced different types of alopecia (androgenic, areata, telogen effluvium) over the years and have found a combination of red light therapy, minoxidil and dutasteride to be the most effective.
Very interesting . I’ve been going to the Philip Kingsley clinic for year to help me deal with MPB and use their M drops a mixture of Minoxidil and hormone blockers and I do still have the majority of my hair . Would be interesting to use the Calecim and the minoxidil for the rest of the week to see if the combination therapy would be beneficial . It really can take at least three months more like 6 months to see a real difference using any topical . Adore your videos you really are the best on here
Thanks Danny! So glad you enjoy the channel. It would definitely be interesting to try the combination approach, or using the Calecim system to give your hair a boost for the six-week programme and then try to maintain with minoxidil. One of the most interesting things about the stem-cell derived treatment is that the results seem to be visible more quickly than with other treatments. We were surprised to see clear changes in an eight-week period. Needless to say my dad is now on it!!
wonderful video....I tried Calecim skin treatment, but I didn't find it made a big different with my skin. but the hair serum seems to be helping your hubby..so that's great...Unfortunately, the cost is so high that you want a result from these purchase..
Glad you enjoyed the video, Suzanne. That's interesting to hear your experienced with the skincare - I do wonder if the biggest benefit of the stem-cell-derived serums in general is for healing and reducing inflammation which is why it may be more effective for treating scarring, pigmentation and hair loss. Just a theory.
Hi Suzanne :) Thank you for sharing your experience. For how long did you use the Calecim skin-care treatment? What improvements were you hoping to see? Any further info greatly appreciated, as I don't want to waste money on ineffective products! Cheers ^_^
I coincidentally looked at this product this morning Clare, and perhaps have a change from Kerastase Anti-Chute, which I have been using for a while. The Calecim is interesting and I see progress with David's crown but feel it is too expensive to add to my skin-care regime. I shall continue with Kerastase for now and start using my derma-roller again but prefer the stamp really for the scalp. Looking forward to seeing the continued good results for David - he has fabulous hair - as do you!
Thank you! David will be very pleased to get a compliment about his hair. It’s always been his pride and joy 😁 Using a dermaroller or stamp does seem to be really beneficial for scalp health and hair renewal.
Hi there ! Are you happy with Kerastase Anti-Chute ? I am currently using the Kerastase Densifique but it is a bit early to see a difference. Are you using it everyday? At wet or dry hair ?
@@herakleiaandreadis1808 - I have been using Kerastase Anti-Chute for a long time and it is frustrating how long it takes to fully recover from hair loss. I do like it and love the way it doesn't affect hair style as it isn't oily - a lovely texture. Having switched a couple of times to other products, always return to this one and keep hoping. I have started to massage my scalp and take scalp + hair vitamins as well as lots of fruit, salad and oily fish. Good luck on your recovery - hoping this has helped a little. I do use it every day and on wet or dry hair x
@@joely2121 thank you for the quick response! I am into scalp massage too and i feel that is beneficial. As it is the Calecim derma stamp i imagine or a derma pen . Like an intence massage ! Best wishes for healthy hair from Chios Greece 🇬🇷
Another YTer I like is now talking about Calecim skin care. Will you be doing another update on this? And have you tried any other products? It's pretty pricey so would love your opinion.
I experienced hair loss about a couple months after I was down with Covid for 2 weeks. I also needed to highlight my hair since I haven't been to the hairdresser for some time. So I just highlighted a few hairs in my front & sides. But a month or two later, I started shedding long hairs all over my scalp but mainly I could see my scalp on my right front side where I did most of the highlight. I now have a few small , almost bald spots where you can see my scalp. So I resorted to taking Biotin & hair supplements daily along with using Neogenesis, Revitalash hair serum, Haielle recovery complex, but the only thing that worked for me was AnteAge MD hair serum. All the others only thicken the hair but result in no hair growth. My next step before I repurchase the AnteAge MD serum is to try the Calecim Hair Serum. I use the same stamp with the AnteAge MD & it says to almost rock the stamp from one end to the other in an up & down motion.
This serum is definitely worth trying. I have even more confidence in it now because I gave some to my 78-yr-old dad to try and he is seeing great results from it! I’ll share a video on it next month.
@@thehonestchannel Claire, do you know if this is a product that you need to continue to use, such as Minoxidil, or is it ok to stop once you have restored your hair loss?
@@valentina-pg4bj Unfortunately there is a need to keep using it but you can use it less frequently and in smaller amounts to maintain the results. At a push longer term you may be able to get away with just buying a box twice a year - so using a quarter of a serum vial once a week.
*** I am curious what happens when you stop? this seems to be a common issue with all hair growing treatments as well as supplements. Does the hair reverse.
We haven’t tried stopping but this treatment is not permanent so it’s highly likely the hair would start thinning again. They key is to find the minimum amount you can use to maintain results.
When I go on the Calecim Website, it says the advanced hair system is only available in clinics, at least from where I am. Is it only available for purchase for at-home use in the UK? 😮
It's definitely a visible improvement to your husband's hair. Using The Ordinary multipeptide hair serum during the gaps of not using Calecim System could be another financially viable solution. It does thicken the hair as well, promotes hair growth and fills in all the gaps. But it is best to use it everynight or 5 days a week. I swear by it.
Thanks so much for that suggestion. We were just talking last night about what else he might use to be able to reduce the amount of Calecim but maintain the results.
@@thehonestchannel I'm glad you saw my post. There are good reviews of the Ordinary's Hair serum and honestly for me and many I've talked to it's been a god send and like a lifesaver for those of us who have thinning hair or lost hair through stress or age. it's natural and really works. It's one of the only products I wouldn't go without and it's all plant based. I use it on my eyebrows and lashes as well. There's no alcohol or ingredients inside that hurts the eyes either. It's amazing and cheap.
Hi Clare, just checking in to see if you created an update video to show David's results. Would be interesting to know. Is he still using the Calecim serum now? I just bought the kit and started today. Not quite sure how to properly use the dermastamp though...
Hi. Here's my most recent update.ruclips.net/video/tUpa5IiNobQ/видео.htmlsi=oJQAC1EcLTxVehDr David still uses it weekly - and my dad has had incredible results. Hopefully this video helped re how to use it.
@@thehonestchannel Thank you so much for your response Claire - much appreciated! I'll definitely check out your update. Thanks for creating such a great channel.
Yes, unfortunately you do have to keep using it longer term but you can reduce the amount you use and frequency so my dad and husband only use it once a week now.
Literature in box indicates use minoxidil after a 48-72 hour gap to let CALECIM absorb (with no hair wash). Don’t think oral medicine like finasteride will affect results, providing you are not in the shed stage of finasteride.
How long have you had the NIRA? I ask because I think the idea is you use it very frequently for the first three months. I don't recall the suggested maintenance frequency but I would be careful to not over-stimulate the skin with multiple devices.
Thanks a lot for your fantastic job of hair growing solution reviewing video! I would like to rewrite your chapter of time elapse bookmarks which are clickable for audiences at easy. It simply changes the periods to semicolons respectively. 0:00 Intro 1:09 What is it and how much is it? 1:55 How to use it and how it works. 4:30 David's hair loss. 5:02 Before and after pictures and our view. 7:35 Balancing the cost with long-term use.
Clare has your husband considered using pdo threads in his scalp? I have seen videos on RUclips doing this. Also I have done pdo threads just above and below my eyebrows, good results, my hooded eyes are not so obvious now. Have you done threads yourself, what do you think of this treatment (not thread lift).
Hi. Sorry, just spotted your post. I’ve not tried threads but thank you for the recommendation. My husband’s doing well with the serum at the moment but I would be interested in this for my hooded eyes. I’ll look into it - thank you!
Hi. They do deliver to the UK, yes. I have a discount code in the video description. You’d need to contact Calecim directly re their trial and future pricing.
@@thehonestchannel you are too funny. But it is the one thing I find a bit off putting as well. The pink serum as well as the night cream have that same strange smell. Luckily here in Paris no dear will be attracted ;)
Hello. As it happens we're just editing the follow-up so will publish in the next few days. My dad started using the serum and I have some very visible results to share!!
I wouldn't be paying this amount of money for ever, and ever, and ever lol. If you are ok with needles its quite an easy process to create your own PRP to inject into your own scalp, which i currently do. Benefits is its Free, plus the body does not react to the injections because its your own bodies product. Ive got hair like Samson
It’s a specific herd of farmed red deer that the stem cells are sourced from - only one deer’s umbilical cord has been used thus far, but it’s still a point worth making, thank you.
how irresponsable to start minoxidil without even trying to diagnose the type of hairloss your husband has, minoxidil is just a hair stimulant, it open potassium channels and increase blood flow, but it won't necesarily treat hairloss caused by telogen efluvium, let alone androgenetic alopecia which is caused by hair folicle sensitivity to DHT, each types of hair loss require a unique treament, you can't just randomly use drugs like minoxidil without even diagnosing the type of hair loss.
Hi. I don't think there's a guarantee but they have a chat function on their website so you could ask them what their policy is calecimprofessional.com/
It's taken from the discarded umbilical cord - because each cord carries billions of stem cells they've to date only used one umbilical cord for all the skincare products they've made!
It seems that you just brushed the hair differently in diffrent direction... and pics in different lighting.. please don't underestimate our intelligence, Try to be honest
We were very very careful to leave his hair as it sat naturally. I also manufactured the parting in one shot so people could see the hair growth around it. His hair is how it is and we’re happy we’ve given a fair account. I know my viewers are intelligent and they judge for themselves
@@thehonestchannel Helen, in my opinion you are a very honest reviewer. I have no idea why it would be suggested that somehow you have altered the images in a dishonest manner. I have hair loss and get my long suffering husband to take pictures at different times. No matter what we do it is next to impossible to get exactly the same lighting etc and my hair always looks different. I would like to praise you for your emotional intelligence, it must be so hard to be unfairly accused of being dishonest and not respond in a defensive way, but you managed it.
No one does more for their hair than i do im 49 and i hsve thicker hair now than as a teen . I spend a pretty penny though heres my routine: im on 2nd week of the calicem mainly for the hairline which i feel needs more density , my hair in back and top are thick and hairline isnt receding but i want more density at the front . Im on 2nd week of calicem which my usual routine is topical finasteride 0.3% minoxidil 7% ketakonozole 2.2% biotin .2% ( that's all in one spray which is far more effective than just using ketakonizole shampoo( nizoral 1% 3 x a week or script 2% 2x a week ) by applying it nighty with the fin/min it stops any scalp flaking and since its sn anti fungal it an anti inflammatory and helps the hair growth. For oral supplements i use complete line of advanced trichology which is only supplements certified by the AHLA these are 1. Dht blocker ( best on market as others contain way too much iron and other fillers ) 2. Foli- grow ( works great with the dht blockers) 3. EFA complete ( 3-6-9 Omega fatty acids) 4. vitamin D3 sublingual 5. Melatonin topical ( i suggest upping melatonin levels at night anyway ) 6. Shamp/ cond/ follicle activator. You must use different shampoos just as you'd change rotunes at the gym to keep progress moving . So i also use a complete rosemary kit from aromatica ( sea salt rosemary scalp scrub/ shampoo/ cond/ root engancer . Pura-dor anti thinng gold label biotin shamp/ cond. Lipogaine ( amazing sham/ cond) Shapiro MD shamp/ cond/ foamer . Procerin therapy shampoo . All these are anti dht properties with all the usual good natural stuff . I only wash the hair 2 to 3 times a week ( overwashing us not good) but i also use a rosemary/rice water spray on off days to remove sweat if ive worked out that day. Just as i take conplete supplements inside you need it directly on the scalp too which i use a complete hair nourishing tooical ( my secret for years ) called shen- min , which is a Chinese herbal topical with everything in it for topical nutrients. I will then use an electrical massager and massage it in ( i use this in the mornings as it dries in beautifully and doesn't leave hair oily ) i apply the fin/ min spray at night . The follicle avtivators , root enhancers and foams i use on towel dried hair after wash . ( The only styling products are a natural coconut based mouse) For nutrition diet wise i use natures organic powder ( vanilla chai and i add unsweetened almond milk and lil cinamon 2xa day , this is a vegan plant based organic symphony and has a ton of stuff great for you and hair , pro biotics and more) then nights before im goig to wash hair i saturate my scalp in a mix of natural oils like rosemary oil, argon oil, tea tree oil, pumpkin seed oil, peppermint oil, coconut oil, lavender oil, castor oil, saw palmetto oil, biotin oil, ginger oil, evening primrose oil, and few others . Then i use a biotin /collagen 10,000 mcgs transdermal rub . Then on the 3 days i wash hair i do low level laser therapy on damp hair for 15 minutes 3x a week . Then few hours later ill do the derma stamp/ calicem procedure . And lastly my dad has this old inversion table and ill hang upside down like a bat for 45 minutes a day . Think that's about it , so yeah compared to what i spend calicem is a drop in the bucket . I also have a Dr. Pen but i just use that on my face only , some reason i like the simple derma stamp better , i guess cause im only doing the hairline mostly . I do have a radio frequency wand comb thing i hsvent opened yet , maybe ill squeeze that in too 😂 btw your husband can apply 100% real hair fibers to asthetically thicken that area ( 99% are cotton based with rayon or silica , but two priducts are actual 100% real hair ,one is from hair illusion and the other i think is called xfusion i think , but the others wlll suck your natural oils out your hair cause the cotton in it . But the real hair ones you can apply topicals or not even worry bout washing them out csuse its just actual hair .

It's one of the only products I wouldn't go without and it's all plant based. I use it on my eyebrows and lashes as well. There's no alcohol or ingredients inside that hurts the eyes either. It's amazing and cheap.
@@nicolelouis8968 Fantastic. That’s really great to hear - thank you!
@@nicolelouis8968 ~ Hi Nicole :) Thank you for sharing that recommendation! Have you seen improvement in your brows from using that serum? Cheers ^_^
@@nicolelouis8968Hey can you please provide a link to the correct one? They seem to have a few and I'm not sure which one is best. Thank you!
Would the stem cells still work in the facial serum and cream if they froze during shipping? Or should one wait till the weather warms up?
So you puncture the skin with the stamp first then you put the serum in twice a week ..do you not have ash your hair on the day you use the serum ?
Hi Clare, just checking in to see if you created an update video to show David's results. Would be interesting to know. Is he still using the Calecim serum now? I just bought the kit and started today. Not quite sure how to properly use the dermastamp though...
Hi. Here's my most recent update.ruclips.net/video/tUpa5IiNobQ/видео.htmlsi=oJQAC1EcLTxVehDr David still uses it weekly - and my dad has had incredible results. Hopefully this video helped re how to use it.
@@thehonestchannel Thank you so much for your response Claire - much appreciated! I'll definitely check out your update. Thanks for creating such a great channel.
Can you use this on the forehead if your hairline is receding?
Yes, wherever there used to be hair you can use it.
Once you stop using it will you lose your new hair like with minoxidil ?
Yes, unfortunately you do have to keep using it longer term but you can reduce the amount you use and frequency so my dad and husband only use it once a week now.
Can we use with minoxidil and finasteride?
I will ask!
Update?@@thehonestchannel
Literature in box indicates use minoxidil after a 48-72 hour gap to let CALECIM absorb (with no hair wash). Don’t think oral medicine like finasteride will affect results, providing you are not in the shed stage of finasteride.
I have a NIRA and a NuFace device. What kind of routine would be appropriate to use both of them?
How long have you had the NIRA? I ask because I think the idea is you use it very frequently for the first three months. I don't recall the suggested maintenance frequency but I would be careful to not over-stimulate the skin with multiple devices.
Thanks a lot for your fantastic job of hair growing solution reviewing video!
I would like to rewrite your chapter of time elapse bookmarks which are clickable for audiences at easy. It simply changes the periods to semicolons respectively.

Thanks so much for this Julie. I didn’t realise they weren’t clickable before. I’ll update them
Clare has your husband considered using pdo threads in his scalp? I have seen videos on RUclips doing this. Also I have done pdo threads just above and below my eyebrows, good results, my hooded eyes are not so obvious now. Have you done threads yourself, what do you think of this treatment (not thread lift).
Hi. Sorry, just spotted your post. I’ve not tried threads but thank you for the recommendation. My husband’s doing well with the serum at the moment but I would be interested in this for my hooded eyes. I’ll look into it - thank you!
Using twice a week do you say apply half a Ampoule say on a Monday and another say thursday.
Yes, that would work. My husband uses it Sundays and Thursdays.
Hi for one is this product available in uk and will the price eventually come down also can I enter a trial of the product.
Hi. They do deliver to the UK, yes. I have a discount code in the video description. You’d need to contact Calecim directly re their trial and future pricing.
will i get my money back if it does not work for me???please respond>>>>
Those are great results! I agree, the smell of the products is strange. Maybe like a deer liked us 🙃
It was the first thing that came to mind when I was trying to describe the smell 😂
@@thehonestchannel you are too funny. But it is the one thing I find a bit off putting as well. The pink serum as well as the night cream have that same strange smell. Luckily here in Paris no dear will be attracted ;)
It is a shame you did not do this experiment on someone with really thin hair. You don´t really see any different.
I think there’ll be a lot of people like my husband who are worried about thinning hair. This is a difference to him and we think it’s visible
Just wondering if you've done a follow up post for this video? Itd be interested to see the progress as of now. Thanks
Hello. As it happens we're just editing the follow-up so will publish in the next few days. My dad started using the serum and I have some very visible results to share!!
@@thehonestchannel that's fab. Can't wait to see it . Thank you!
red deer :) how about unicorn??
I wouldn't be paying this amount of money for ever, and ever, and ever lol. If you are ok with needles its quite an easy process to create your own PRP to inject into your own scalp, which i currently do. Benefits is its Free, plus the body does not react to the injections because its your own bodies product. Ive got hair like Samson
Interesting!
How does one create their own PRP?
How & what does an average Joe need to be able to create their own PRP?
There certainly are zoonoses (diseases that can infect humans) from deer….tuberculosis being the big one. Brucellosis leptospirosis etc etc
It’s a specific herd of farmed red deer that the stem cells are sourced from - only one deer’s umbilical cord has been used thus far, but it’s still a point worth making, thank you.
how irresponsable to start minoxidil without even trying to diagnose the type of hairloss your husband has, minoxidil is just a hair stimulant, it open potassium channels and increase blood flow, but it won't necesarily treat hairloss caused by telogen efluvium, let alone androgenetic alopecia which is caused by hair folicle sensitivity to DHT, each types of hair loss require a unique treament, you can't just randomly use drugs like minoxidil without even diagnosing the type of hair loss.
hello...let me ask is this money back gurantee
Hi. I don't think there's a guarantee but they have a chat function on their website so you could ask them what their policy is calecimprofessional.com/
New to channel.
Welcome!
i can't imagine how they ethically obtain umbilical cells from a deer 🤔
It's taken from the discarded umbilical cord - because each cord carries billions of stem cells they've to date only used one umbilical cord for all the skincare products they've made!
You should have tried this on someone else. Your husband has a full head of hair...
If you check the description you’ll see a link to a video where my dad tries it - and he had very little hair at the back.
It seems that you just brushed the hair differently in diffrent direction... and pics in different lighting.. please don't underestimate our intelligence,
Try to be honest
We were very very careful to leave his hair as it sat naturally. I also manufactured the parting in one shot so people could see the hair growth around it. His hair is how it is and we’re happy we’ve given a fair account. I know my viewers are intelligent and they judge for themselves
@@thehonestchannel Helen, in my opinion you are a very honest reviewer. I have no idea why it would be suggested that somehow you have altered the images in a dishonest manner. I have hair loss and get my long suffering husband to take pictures at different times. No matter what we do it is next to impossible to get exactly the same lighting etc and my hair always looks different. I would like to praise you for your emotional intelligence, it must be so hard to be unfairly accused of being dishonest and not respond in a defensive way, but you managed it.
@@thehonestchannel Sorry, I got your name incorrect, apologies.
@@debraraby4376 I can’t tell you how much that supportive comment means. Thank you. ❤️
@@debraraby4376 No problem at all!! 🥰
No one does more for their hair than i do im 49 and i hsve thicker hair now than as a teen . I spend a pretty penny though heres my routine: im on 2nd week of the calicem mainly for the hairline which i feel needs more density , my hair in back and top are thick and hairline isnt receding but i want more density at the front . Im on 2nd week of calicem which my usual routine is topical finasteride 0.3% minoxidil 7% ketakonozole 2.2% biotin .2% ( that's all in one spray which is far more effective than just using ketakonizole shampoo( nizoral 1% 3 x a week or script 2% 2x a week ) by applying it nighty with the fin/min it stops any scalp flaking and since its sn anti fungal it an anti inflammatory and helps the hair growth. For oral supplements i use complete line of advanced trichology which is only supplements certified by the AHLA these are 1. Dht blocker ( best on market as others contain way too much iron and other fillers ) 2. Foli- grow ( works great with the dht blockers) 3. EFA complete ( 3-6-9 Omega fatty acids) 4. vitamin D3 sublingual 5. Melatonin topical ( i suggest upping melatonin levels at night anyway ) 6. Shamp/ cond/ follicle activator. You must use different shampoos just as you'd change rotunes at the gym to keep progress moving . So i also use a complete rosemary kit from aromatica ( sea salt rosemary scalp scrub/ shampoo/ cond/ root engancer . Pura-dor anti thinng gold label biotin shamp/ cond. Lipogaine ( amazing sham/ cond) Shapiro MD shamp/ cond/ foamer . Procerin therapy shampoo . All these are anti dht properties with all the usual good natural stuff . I only wash the hair 2 to 3 times a week ( overwashing us not good) but i also use a rosemary/rice water spray on off days to remove sweat if ive worked out that day. Just as i take conplete supplements inside you need it directly on the scalp too which i use a complete hair nourishing tooical ( my secret for years ) called shen- min , which is a Chinese herbal topical with everything in it for topical nutrients. I will then use an electrical massager and massage it in ( i use this in the mornings as it dries in beautifully and doesn't leave hair oily ) i apply the fin/ min spray at night . The follicle avtivators , root enhancers and foams i use on towel dried hair after wash . ( The only styling products are a natural coconut based mouse) For nutrition diet wise i use natures organic powder ( vanilla chai and i add unsweetened almond milk and lil cinamon 2xa day , this is a vegan plant based organic symphony and has a ton of stuff great for you and hair , pro biotics and more) then nights before im goig to wash hair i saturate my scalp in a mix of natural oils like rosemary oil, argon oil, tea tree oil, pumpkin seed oil, peppermint oil, coconut oil, lavender oil, castor oil, saw palmetto oil, biotin oil, ginger oil, evening primrose oil, and few others . Then i use a biotin /collagen 10,000 mcgs transdermal rub . Then on the 3 days i wash hair i do low level laser therapy on damp hair for 15 minutes 3x a week . Then few hours later ill do the derma stamp/ calicem procedure . And lastly my dad has this old inversion table and ill hang upside down like a bat for 45 minutes a day . Think that's about it , so yeah compared to what i spend calicem is a drop in the bucket . I also have a Dr. Pen but i just use that on my face only , some reason i like the simple derma stamp better , i guess cause im only doing the hairline mostly . I do have a radio frequency wand comb thing i hsvent opened yet , maybe ill squeeze that in too 😂 btw your husband can apply 100% real hair fibers to asthetically thicken that area ( 99% are cotton based with rayon or silica , but two priducts are actual 100% real hair ,one is from hair illusion and the other i think is called xfusion i think , but the others wlll suck your natural oils out your hair cause the cotton in it . But the real hair ones you can apply topicals or not even worry bout washing them out csuse its just actual hair .
can i ask you something about your routine through dm's?
