BOTANICAL HAIR GROWTH LABScalp Soothing Treatment, Lavender - Cypress Scent, for Hair Loss Prevention & Natural Hair Growth Stimulation with Biotin, Pre-Shampoo Application, Unisex, 12 oz

Started using this product last week. Used it a grand total of 3 times.About me: I have long waist length Asian hair that's extremely dry and damaged from years of heat abuse. Because my hair is so long and damaged, it tangles easily and every time I wash or brush I noticed a lot of fallout. Got to the point where I noticed my hair was sparse and I could see too much of my scalp. So I'm using this product to add new growth, not for length.The way I've been measuring for new growth is by running my hand around my natural part and cowlick to see if I notice new growth. (Asian hair grows straight out and up, so it's easy to feel new growth. Feels almost prickly.)After the first two uses, I felt along my part and did not feel new growth. Was disappointed but decided to give it time. After about a week I'm feeling it again and I feel TONS of new growth! Lots of prickly new hair filling in where I had none before!Product is solid. It feels tingly after awhile of setting in, and it smells strongly of medicinal eucalyptus. Smell was almost unbearable at first but I got used to it.Now that I can see and feel it working, I can say that it is well worth it.Will update as my hair progresses.Week 3:Used a total of 5 times now. Product is halfway gone. Still feeling brand brand new growth, as the next cycle comes in. Not as plentiful as the last cycle, but new hair is still coming in, particularly in my cowlick near the back of my head. Very pleased with this so far, would like to see some growth in front, near my baby hairs. Will update again soon.Week 5: used about 8 times now. Bottle is nearly empty. I might be able to get two more sessions out of it. Coming back to this page to order more.Week 5 observations:This bottle went fast for me. I've been doing 2-3 sessions a week as advised and it lasted me about a month. With continuous use, that's a hefty $40 a month. But I imagine I could probably scale back when I'm done with the rebuilding phase and move on to the maintenance phase. Once my hair feels sufficiently thick again, I will probably use 3-4 times a month only.No new prickly growth after week 3, but the hair that came in is growing pretty fast. Went for a trim with a new stylist who had never seen my hair before. We did a hair consultation and he remarked that I have "lots of baby hairs". He showed me what he meant in the mirror: I have a lot of short new hair coming in (and some mid-length hair as well that had broken off) but they are "baby hairs" because they are thinner and more delicate than my usual strand. He suggested I am dehydrated so my new hairs are coming in weaker. I do feel dehydrated often so I am pledging now to drink more water so my new growth will come in strong. Also started taking a daily multivitamin for women as well as biotin. We did a trim to take off my scraggly dry ends and a keratin treatment to fortify my baby hairs to help them stay strong and grow. I suggest anyone using this product take the same measures to protect and fortify your new growth.My two areas of concern now are: my cowlick at the back of my head, and my baby bangs in the front. Both areas have filled out some, but I was hoping for more. So far, it is at the halfway point between nothing and what I was hoping for. Will continue to treat these two areas with extra care and attention.I've noticed that the applicator (small glass dropper with a rubber squeeze pump) isn't particularly efficient at distributing this oil. You squeeze the dropper and the oil comes out and sits at one location. It's hard to spread it all around the scalp. If anyone has hints for better and more efficient method of distribution please advise. So far I've been doing this: part hair at strategic places on my head where I feel I need it most on my scalp, put mini drops along the part, dampen my hair where I've put the drops to try to slightly dilute and distribute. When I'm done I put a little diluted conditioner (cheap whatever conditioner) to act as carrier and spread it some more along more areas of my scalp. Part my hair at a different strategic area and repeat until I feel I have covered my whole head. So far, this seems to be an ok method of getting it to reach all over my head. You'll know because wherever the oil touch will tingle your scalp.Another observation: this oil is hard to wash out and really clings to hair shaft, especially midway down the length. If you do one pass on the shampoo, your hair may end up an oily mess. It's tricky so you'll have to play around with figuring out a way to wash out the oil without overwashing your hair. I do two passes with a gentle non-foaming shampoo, then rinse with lukewarm water. Do whatever works for you, but be mindful to retain the health of your existing hair.Conclusion after using first bottle: new growth spotted weeks 2-3, quality of existing hair doesnt seem affected. Hair growing slightly (but noticeably) faster than usual. New growth is thinner than regular hair but they're there. Edges starting to fill in. Not at desired result yet. Will continue another month and post more observations.Week 7: Nothing new to report. The new growth is very fine, very thin, and very light in color (almost blonde or colorless, whereas my hair is naturally black). I can see and feel them especially well along my hairline over my forehead. Hoping the quality of new growth improves.ONE YEAR UPDATE: it has now been a year since my initial purchase. The first half year or so I went through two bottles and saw a lot of growth, though the new growth was very fine and very light in color. Nevertheless, I was somewhat satisfied and started to get lazy with my biotin vitamin intake and use of this product... And my hair stopped growing again.I did a lot of research and I’m fairly certain my hair loss is hormonal. After a decade of being on birth control (and many heads of “cycling through” to skip periods) I believe the hormones in my birth control has been inhibiting my hair growth. After examination, I have come to find that my hair loss occurs mostly on the crown of my head and around my bangs, and that the hair isn’t so much falling out as it’s just no longer growing out of the follicle on top. I have decided to stop hormonal birth control entirely and start using my 10,000mg natrol biotin and this product again.It has now been about two weeks since I stopped my birth control and started this regrowth regiment. Two weeks back on the wagon and I’m seeing similar results as before. Hair is starting to grow back around my edges, but they are very fine and very light in color. Hair is growing FAST (maybe 3/4 of an inch in the past two weeks), but the hair that grows in has a different texture than my usual hair. Not as strong, not as black, each strand not as thick. This week I will be adding a shampoo with DHT blockers to my regiment to see if I can’t regrow some of that sparseness from the top of my head. I wish I hadn’t stopped this regiment about 4 months ago. Will continue to report results.

It's a miracle! After giving birth to my son 3 years ago and 12 months of breastfeeding I lost so much hair. I made a research and chose Hair growth botanical. I bought both reconstructive conditioner and Hair Growth Treatment Ginger & Saw Palmetto. I use the conditioner every time I was my hair and the treatment once a week. I started noticing improving in 2 weeks and after 2 months my hair looks great! I get compliments all the time. It's a miracle! Both products have all natural ingredients and oils. I tried to use another conditioner with argan oil and pure argan oil before but it made my hair very oily. Hair growth Botanical Renovation products don't have this side effect, no more oily hair. The packaging is also very pretty, I am placing another order for Holiday gifts.

So I was VERY skeptical about this product the oil specifically (and most products bought online), especially for the price. I have literally tried everything to make my damaged 4c hair grow and this has been the only product I have seen actual results for. The directions do say to let it sit for 20 min then wash off but I do use it as a oil on my hair a couple times a week. IT WORKS give it a try.

I am writing this review early because not only has this product helped my scalp to calm down and stop itching, but the company provided me with some of the best customer service I have ever had. I will update once I give the product an appropriate time frame in regards to hair regrowth. This cannot be assessed before 3-6 months of continuous use. But this review might help someone decide between companies, or choose the product because they have similar sensitive scalp issues or irritation.I see a lot of 1 star reviews based only on the fact that customers received a leaking bottle on delivery. This happens! With almost any product this happens sometimes! I cannot count the number of leaking products I have received via amazon BUT I can say that contacting the company has almost always gotten me a replacement or refund. Contact the company and they will replace the product or refund your money. Or contact Amazon and they will do the same. Leaking bottles are just a fact of life when ordering things through delivery! At the very LEAST give the company a chance to correct the problem. If you haven’t done this and you left a bad review because of it you could be discouraging someone who might actually benefit from these products not to mention you didn’t get what you paid for! Just message the company, they are wonderfully helpful. I’ve included a picture of the bottle size so you can see how much you get, it’s a huge bottle and you only use a tiny bit each time so it’s well worth the money.I have a condition where many of my hairs go into the last phase of growth (where they fall out) this is called Telogen Effluvium or TE for short. Some women may experience this condition after childbirth, or when taking/ discontinuing certain hormonal medications like birth control.First I’d like to mention the absolutely amazing customer service I have gotten from this company. I had a problem with the bottle and they responded immediately, replaced the bottle itself and to make up for it they also threw in a few other products.They answered any and all questions I had and they did so promptly and with great service. I can’t remember the last time I was treated so well by a company! They encouraged me to give details about my hair concerns so they could make sure my plan and products were optimized.So far I have only used the product for a few weeks. Whenever I have a bout of TE my scalp becomes itchy and uncomfortable. This treatment immediately relieves that discomfort and itching. My dermatologist had put me on topical steroids which ended up slowing down my hair loss for awhile but then I got scalp infections which were worse than what they were treating and caused my hair loss to increase significantly. Then my dermatologist gave me benzoyl peroxide shampoo to clear the infection. My scalp was so dry, it dried out my hair horribly and my scalp STILL itched! Hair loss was heavy while using that too. It’s an acne medication that often is so harsh it causes peeling so no wonder it made my scalp inflamed.So I wanted to avoid that whole mess this time around. Since I’ve started using this I’ve had a decrease in hair loss, and an overall decrease in scalp discomfort. Ginger is an amazing anti-inflammatory and I’ve used it before with minimal results on its own. In this formula, it works wonders. My scalp feels normal, it’s healthy, hair loss has decreased and I really feel great about the ingredients.And this company! They really do offer each customer the best service. If you don’t know which treatment is right for you, contact them and they will guide you through it.Remember that hair takes time to grow!! No product will regrow hair in a few weeks, you need to remain consistent and give the product 3-6 months to check for progress. Hair grows slowly, so products to improve hair growth take time to work. If you have not given the product 3-6 months, you cannot determine if it works or not! This goes for ANY hair loss products. People try things for a month and then leave terrible reviews because they don’t see any new growth. Not only are they discouraging others from using products that might work great, but they are also not getting the results they want. If they waited a bit longer they would know for sure. Hair does not grow visibly in a month. Google hair growth cycles so you are familiar with the different phases and have realistic expectations. In the meantime, clip in extensions can help hide hair loss, as can hair fibers. Use those if you need results immediately, but use a product in the meantime that addresses the problem.I will update my review within the next 3-6 months. I wanted to leave this review because I’m noticing improvements in my scalp health already and wanted other customers to know that this company is 100% behind you and will work with you to find the best things you can do to help slow or stop hair loss, and also to regrow hair. They are great about answering questions so feel free to ask for advice about your particular hair loss and what may work best.Please also remember that not all hair can be grown back. If your hair loss is genetic (or caused from a condition that destroys hair follicles) and you did not address it for many years, there’s a good chance your hair follicles have shut down and basically died. Nothing can bring them back except hair transplants. Nothing. If you have just begun to notice within the last few years get on top of it before it is too late! This is why it is so important to address hair loss as quickly as possible and continue to treat it. Healthy hair begins with a healthy scalp. This product delivers the healthy scalp almost immediately. I’m excited to see what type of growth I am able to achieve and I will update with before and after photos as soon as I’ve given it a chance to cause visible results. I have not had a product calm my scalp down so quickly and effectively without using harsh medications that come with horrible side effects (thinning of skin, stretch marks where the skin has lost its collagen structure, infections because steroids suppress the immune system, not to mention they are in an alcohol base which itself is drying and bad for scalp and hair). Even if I experience no improvement in growth I will continue using these products just because of the scalp benefits.Thanks for the amazing alternative to steroids and harsh chemicals! Your product has made the last few weeks much more comfortable and less anxiety because I am not seeing clumps of hair come out in the shower. The bottle size is big and should last for months!
