WORKING ALONGSIDE LEADING CHEMISTS, WE DEVELOPED OUR HEADGAINS PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE [HGPM] FORMULA, COMPRISED OF 9 POWERFUL, NATURALLY DERIVED AND SCIENCE-BACKED INGREDIENTS CHOSEN FOR THEIR BENEFITS IN COMBATING HAIR LOSS AND SUPPORTING THE MAINTENANCE OF EXISTING HAIR MASS.

SAW PALMETTO EXTRACT

HOW IT WORKS: SAW PALMETTO EXTRACT IS A NATURAL EXTRACT OF THE SUBTROPICAL SAW PALMETTO FRUIT. SAW PALMETTO HAS BEEN PROVEN TO SUPPRESS DHT LEVELS.

ONE STUDY SHOWED THAT SAW PALMETTO REDUCED DHT LEVELS BY 32% BY BLOCKING THE ACTION OF THE 5-ALPHA-REDUCTASE ENZYME FROM CONVERTING TESTOSTERONE INTO DHT, THEREBY REDUCING DHT LEVELS. IN ANOTHER STUDY, 48% OF PARTICIPANTS SAW INCREASED HAIR GROWTH WITH SAW PALMETTO.

PUMPKIN SEED OIL

HOW IT WORKS: PUMPKIN SEED OIL HAS BEEN PROVEN TO REDUCE DHT LEVELS. IN A 2014 STUDY, MEN WHO TOOK PUMPKIN SEED EXTRACT EXPERIENCED 30% MORE HAIR GROWTH THAN THOSE WHO RECEIVED THE PLACEBO. PUMPKIN SEED OIL IS THOUGHT TO TARGET THE 5-ALPHA-REDUCTASE ENZYME FROM CONVERTING TESTOSTERONE INTO DHT, THEREBY REDUCING DHT LEVELS.

GREEN TEA EXTRACT

HOW IT WORKS: WE ALL KNOW THAT GREEN TEA HAS NUMEROUS BENEFITS BUT IT ALSO ASSISTS WITH PREVENTING HAIR LOSS BY TARGETING THE 5-ALPHA-REDUCTASE ENZYME FROM CONVERTING TESTOSTERONE INTO DHT, THEREBY REDUCING DHT LEVELS.

GREEN TEA IS RICH IN A POLYPHENOL CALLED EPIGALLOCATECHIN GALLATE (DON’T ASK US TO PRONOUNCE THAT) OR EGCG. A NUMBER OF STUDIES (2002 AND 2011) SUGGEST THAT EGCG TARGETS THE 5-ALPHA-REDUCTASE ENZYME, REDUCING DHT.

GREEN TEA ALSO INCREASES BLOOD CIRCULATION AND ACTS AS AN ANTI-INFLAMMATORY AGENT.

SALICYLIC ACID

HOW IT WORKS: SALICYLIC ACID IS A DISSOLVING AGENT FOUND IN THE BARK OF A WILLOW TREE AND SOME FOODS LIKE WALNUTS. BOASTING SEVERAL HEALTH BENEFITS, SALICYLIC ACID CAN REDUCE SEBUM LEVELS IN YOUR SCALP (WHICH IS JUST AN OILY, WAXY SUBSTANCE PRODUCED BY YOUR BODY’S SEBACEOUS GLANDS). SEBUM CONTAINS LARGE AMOUNTS OF DHT SO BY REDUCING SEBUM WITH SALICYLIC ACID, YOU ARE EFFECTIVELY REDUCING DHT LEVELS. SALICYLIC ACID IS ALSO AN ANTI-INFLAMMATORY AGENT.

02 GROW

FUNCTION: PROMOTE HAIR GROWTH

INGREDIENTS THAT HAVE BEEN KNOWN TO FACILITATE THE FLOW OF BLOOD TO HAIR FOLLICLES AND SCALP DELIVER MORE OXYGEN AND NUTRIENTS TO HAIR FOLLICLES, PROMOTING HAIR GROWTH.

NIACINAMIDE B3

HOW IT WORKS: NIACINAMIDE, A WATER-SOLUBLE FORM OF VITAMIN B3, INCREASES HAIR GROWTH AND IMPROVES HAIR’S THICKNESS, DENSITY AND GENERAL APPEARANCE BY ENCOURAGING BLOOD FLOW TO THE SCALP. THIS INCREASED CIRCULATION DELIVERS MORE OXYGEN AND NUTRIENTS TO HAIR FOLLICLES, FURTHER PROMOTING THE GROWTH OF HEALTHY HAIR.

A 2005 STUDY CONCLUDED THAT NIACINAMIDE DEMONSTRATED A STATISTICALLY SIGNIFICANT INCREASE IN HAIR FULLNESS. NIACINAMIDE ALSO SERVES AS AN ANTIOXIDANT AND ANTI-INFLAMMATORY AGENT.

ROSEMARY EXTRACT

HOW IT WORKS: ROSEMARY EXTRACT STIMULATES HAIR GROWTH BY INCREASING BLOOD CIRCULATION WHILE ALSO ACTING AS AN ANTI-INFLAMMATORY AGENT. THE FLOW OF BLOOD TO HAIR FOLLICLES AND THE SCALP DELIVERS MORE OXYGEN AND NUTRIENTS TO HAIR FOLLICLES, PROMOTING HAIR GROWTH.

IN A RECENT STUDY, RESEARCHERS FOUND THAT ROSEMARY OIL WAS EQUALLY AS EFFECTIVE AT PROMOTING HAIR GROWTH AS MINOXIDIL (GENERIC ROGAINE)!

03 MAINTAIN

FUNCTION: STRENGTHEN AND PROTECT EXISTING HAIR MASS

INGREDIENTS THAT HAVE BEEN KNOWN TO TREAT EXISTING HAIR MASS AND HELP TO STRENGTHEN AND PROTECT EXISTING HAIR FOLLICLES.

CERAMIDES

HOW IT WORKS: CERAMIDES CREATE A PROTECTIVE BARRIER, STRENGTHENING THE HAIR’S CUTICLE TO HOLD IN MOISTURE AND PROTEIN WHILE ALSO GUARDING THE HAIR FROM HEAT AND UV DAMAGE. CERAMIDES PREVENT DAMAGE, KEEP THE HAIR FOLLICLES IN THEIR PLACE, AND STRENGTHEN HAIR STRANDS.

PANTHENOL B5

HOW IT WORKS: PANTHENOL OR B5 IS AN ANTI-INFLAMMATORY AGENT THAT HELPS STRENGTHEN HAIR FOLLICLES WHILE SOOTHING THE SCALP. PANTHENOL PENETRATES THE HAIR SHAFT AS WELL AS THE ROOT OF YOUR HAIR TO HELP THICKEN YOUR HAIR AND PROMOTE HAIR GROWTH.

PANTHENOL IS ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT VITAMINS FROM THE B-COMPLEX VITAMIN GROUP BECAUSE OF ITS ROLE IN MAKING BLOOD CELLS AND CONVERTING PROTEINS AND CARBOHYDRATES INTO ENERGY.

SILICA DERIVED FROM BAMBOO

HOW IT WORKS: SILICA STRENGTHENS AND PROTECTS EXISTING HAIR FOLLICLES AND MASS BY ELIMINATING THE DAMAGED SKIN CELLS ON THE SCALP AND AIDING COLLAGEN PRODUCTION.
