Questions & answers

Here we give you answers to frequently asked questions about hair loss.

As a woman with thin, dry hair which falls out when I wash it, I would like to have a perm. Will a perm damage my hair?

You should strictly only consider having a perm when your hair is healthy. If your hair is already damaged, a perm can only make this condition worse.

Can I blow dry my hair after using Thymuskin Serum?

You should refrain from using your hairdryer immediately after applying Thymuskin Serum.

Can I combine Thymuskin with other substances to combat hair loss and thus eliminate my hair loss faster?

In principle there are no objections to such a combination and it is ultimately a question of your wallet. However we would advise you to leave a sufficient interval of time between the different applications.

Can I have my hair highlighted despite using Thymuskin?

Yes, of course, that is not a problem at all.

Can Thymuskin cure hereditary hair loss?

No, hereditary hair loss is not curable, because as the name says it is inherited. This means that Thymuskin has to be used repeatedly, with breaks.

Can Thymuskin Serum also be used on dry hair?

Thymuskin Serum can also be used very effectively on dry hair: to do so, part the hair carefully, apply Thymuskin Serum directly to the scalp and massage in carefully.

Does colouring damage the hair?

Colouring does not cause hair loss in principle, but you should be aware that in any case it is a major invasion of the hair structure.

I am only 20 and I can already see the first signs of a receding hairline. What can I do to prevent this?

I do not have any hair loss, but over time my hair is getting constantly thinner. Can Thymuskin help me here?

I have been suffering from hair loss for some time, and my scalp is itchy and flaky. Can I still use Thymuskin?

I have had major hair loss since the birth of my child. Can Thymuskin help me?

So-called postpartum effluvium occurs after giving birth and the cause is hormonal. After you have given birth, your oestrogen level falls and as a consequence hairs increasingly remain in the so-called resting phase of the hair cycle, and fall out 3 months later.

I have just been on a diet and lost some weight, but I am now suffering from substantial hair loss. What can I do?

Is it true that egg white or beer is good for my hair?

If you have already tried beer as a rinse conditioner it's well worth noting that egg white and beer only have a positive influence on the hair shaft by making hair that has already been washed silkier and improving its shine.
