No. NouriTress Hair Vitamins are just Vitamins. It is not a medicine. The only side effect some may have is if they take the vitamins without food. As with any vitamin, it is recommended that you take the vitamins with food.

Generally, it takes about 30-45 days before you see any results

In a healthy follicle, an enzyme produced naturally by the body, “Catalase”, reacts with Hydrogen Peroxide and breaks it down to water and oxygen. As long as the enzyme “Catalase” functions normally, the hair retains its natural color. Over time the enzyme “Catalase” produced by the body drops and the resulting chemical reaction creates a build-up of hydrogen peroxide which bleaches the hair from the inside out.

NouriTress Perfect Hair Vitamins addresses all of the problems that women have when they come to the Salon. NouriTress Vitamins builds protein, feeds the hair follicle, adds volume & shine to the hair, builds root retention, prevents hair loss and controls dandruff and graying.

You may ask the question – Why hair vitamins? Vitamins and nutrients cannot be produced by our bodies, that's why a balanced diet is so important. Vitamins come from the foods we eat and the liquids we drink. It makes sense that if the body needs vitamins to maintain health, hair needs vitamins too. After all, hair is an extension of the body and it's an expression of a person's overall health. Vitamins like B5 helps hair maintain it’s natural color, B12 actually makes hair grow faster, and vitamin C just like orange juice, improves blood circulation to the scalp. Improving the energy that hair receives improves the hair’s overall health.

• Vitamins B3, B5 and B6 provide health and growth
• B12 increases energy at the root
• C improves scalp circulation and encourages growth
• E increases oxygen intake and expands fullness
• Zinc fights bacteria and stimulates growth
• Iron maintains the basic health and strength
• And Folic Acid helps to prevent Hair Loss

DHT and Hair Loss - WHAT IS DHT!

Research indicates that the primary cause of hair thinning in men and women is DHT (dihydrotestosterone).  As we age, DHT builds up in the scalp and damages the hair producing follicles which eventually die.

DHT works to break down a hair follicle by attaching itself to genetically  predetermined hair follicles. It can cause the blood supply that feeds a hair to  become damaged. DHT slowly thins the hair over time for most men and women. Men  have genetically predisposed hairs located on the crown and at the hair line and  temples. The final result for some men is the loss of hair on the top of the  head in the shape of a horse shoe.

Women have  receptors located over the entire head. This is why women have general thinning.  It is impossible to diagnose DHT hair loss based on the pattern of hair loss because mineral deficiency as well as iron deficiency, deep dirt and sebum plug  and many others gives the same appearance in women.
DHT is the body's conversion of testosterone into a  derivative of testosterone called DHT and can be found in men and women (especially after menopause). It is found in teenagers as young as 13. It is believed that some of us are more predisposed to the effects of DHT than others.  It is also a belief that genetics does play a part but it also believed that diet does as  well as stress in magnifying the effects of DHT.

80% of  women with hair thinning or women with hair loss have serious build up of dirt and bacteria on their hair root. This is because of the sticky products that  women use for styling, attracts dirt! This dirt, bacteria and sebum build up  must be removed in order to allow the hair to come through from the hair follicle.
