Saw Palmetto Serum for Hair Growth: Rosemary, Peppermint, Pumpkin Seed Oils. Vegan Thickening, Moisturizing, Strengthening Treatment for Women, Men - Weak, Dry, Frizzy Hair - 1oz

First of all, I guess everyone has a different sense of smell but I think it smells like an invigorating spa product - herbal and invigorating. Not an overpowering scent at all unless you're snorting it directly from the bottle up your nose. I sometimes apply it in the day and my hair just looks like it has some pomade in it. I will be transparent and say that I started this serum and taking finasteride about the same time: 9 months ago. But I intend to keep using both because my hair is looking fuller and healthier now. The studies I've read about saw palmetto are pretty positive and I feel like it's also helping my hair look more shiny and full. My issues are more alopecia areata than male pattern baldness. I can still see the circular patch of alopecia on my scalp but also had some hair shedding when I started finasteride, which is normal. Now I can see some regrowth and just a more robust appearance of my hair coming back. I attribute it to this serum and the medication.

My first time ever writing a review and it's for good reason. I was looking for the most natural way to slow my MPB (Male pattern baldness) and came across Saw Palmetto. I didn't want to take it orally and block my total production of dht or suffer from any side effects. So I looked for oils to apply directly and found this. The night after the first use, I noticed my hair standing up and less relaxed. I knew it made a difference. So I proceeded to use it every other night before bed, applying it directly to the affected area. After a week, my hair looked thicker, stronger and getting longer. New hair strands are appearing. Its only been two weeks. I think the trick is to catch it early before dht permanently stops production of hair. But be aware, it takes some dedication. Miss application for too many days and you'll start thinning again. definitely recommend to anybody. Even women. This product has so many other beneficial, natural products in it besides saw palmetto. All crucial for hair growth.

Great product

My hair feels a lot healthier with this product. However, there are other products just like it that are much bigger and concentrated better for a better price. I also think there is more filler in this, being caster oil which I am not a fan of.

My wife really loved this

I agree. It is not a miracle cure, but it kind of is. After using it diligently (only 2-4 drops) about 3 times a week, I am seeing new hair growth in the part on my head. I am an aromatherapist and can’t believe I didn’t try this until now. As a side note my thinning is due to decades of thyroid meds and so this is an incredible blessing. All great ingredients. Good product.

This product caused a neurological reaction. Two hours after applying it sparingly to a small section of my scalp, I had tremors so pronounced that I couldn't hold a glass of water. They dissipated overnight but it was extremely stressful. I had a hard time believing a "natural" hair serum could have been responsible for such a concerning reaction. There were no mentions on the label of any potential side effects, and there are no reviews mentioning it. In the pursuit of accurate information I tried it again a few days later. Just a few drops in only one spot. Sure enough, within an hour I was having neurological effects once again. I immediately washed my scalp repeatedly and the effects subsided. I have since researched all the oils and substances listed in the ingredients to see if any have a history of neurological side effects like tremors or disorganized cognition. The only one I found that had even a slight propensity for this caliber of side effect was rosemary oil. I tried a topical application of pure rosemary oil with no ill effects, and I have had no other neurological issues at all, of any kind, since the second trial with this product, so I know it was not due to my own system coincidentally being uncharacteristically out-of-whack during the span of the few days I was exposed to this product. I have no idea what happened with this serum, or why it had such a traumatic effect on my nervous system, but it did. I realize that this must be extremely uncommon, or other customers surely would have reported it. I'm writing this review solely for people like me who, for whatever reason, have a tendency towards odd/rare reactions to pharmaceutical/botanical substances. If you know that you have a history of unusual responses, please use this serum with caution.

I’ve tried so many things for hair thinning and shedding throughout the years. I’ve tried minoxidil but had no significant results after months of use. I’ve changed my diet, tried every natural oil I could find, and many different conditioners and treatments. This is the first product I’ve used that gives me hope. I just started using this product a few days ago and I already notice at least a 75 percent reduction in shedding. The hairs at the crown of my head are already feeling thicker and I had a long standing sore sensation at the crown of my head that is starting to subside. When I saw how little my hair shed after a wash I was honestly in shock. I deep condition every week and oil every other day (with heat) but that had NO effect whatsoever on my massive shedding. This stuff is magic! I’m excited about the progress I’ll see in a few weeks/months.
