Health benefits at a glance:

Hair loss and thinning can affect women at any age, impacting confidence and well-being. 

Hair Growth for Women combines two clinically researched plant extracts demonstrated to promote fuller hair and help prevent hair loss, supporting the roots of the hair.

This supplement is gluten-free and non-GMO.

Why it works:

Supporting hair growth

Hair Growth for Women is specially developed for women who are seeking a solution for strong and healthy hair. The product provides two scientifically studied plant extracts shown to stimulate the hair to grow faster: 

  • Ceramosides™ Oil Neutra: Phytoceramide extract (wheat polar lipids, seed) 

  • Vispo®: Featuring saw palmetto extract (fruit) 

Healthy hair starts at the roots; therefore, it’s important to support the hair follicles, which are the hair root cells. DHT is a hormone that helps regulate hair follicle health, and elevated levels of DHT are linked to hair loss and reduced growth.

This hair supplement can help keep existing hair and reduce shedding by maintaining normal levels of DHT.

The science behind the product:

Healthy hair growth cycle with phytoceramides 

Ceramides are essential lipids that play a key role in cellular structure, development, and renewal, including hair cells. They also help preserve collagen integrity, which is a vital building block for strong, shiny hair.

The wheat phytoceramide extract in Hair Growth for Women is clinically studied to promote hair health. In a trial, 24–64-year-old women took either 30 mg of extract or a placebo daily for 84 days. (1)

Hair examinations were done on days 56 and 84 through expert tests, including a pull test for hair fall, clinical scoring of density and volume, participant questionnaires, hair cycle analysis, measurements of hair diameter and growth, and scalp sebum evaluation.

Expert reports showed that up to 64% in the wheat phytoceramide group experienced improved hair density and volume compared to baseline. Self-reported results revealed that up to 90% reported less shedding, improved hair growth, and healthier hair after 12 weeks. Both pre- and postmenopausal women experienced similar benefits.

Saw palmetto for visibly thicker hair

In a study, participants took either a special, standardized saw palmetto oil extract or a placebo. Analysis found that the saw palmetto extract group showed reduced hair shedding and hair loss, as measured by the hair comb test (counting loose hairs after combing) and the hair pull test. (2)

Results were measured at intervals of 8 and 16 weeks, using hair counts done by experts (including hair comb and hair pull tests), self-evaluation, and photographic analysis. In the self-evaluation questionnaire, participants in the saw palmetto group reported increased hair thickness.

Saw palmetto effects on DHT

In the same study, researchers examined how saw palmetto influences dihydrotestosterone (DHT). 

They discovered that supplementation helped stabilize DHT levels, keeping them within the normal range throughout the trial. (2)
