How could a product that contains sulfate combat hair loss on the contrary, sulfate weakens hair follicle

Greeting, many thanks for reaching out to us. The scientific term „sulfate or sulphate“ corresponds to a huge class of chemical compounds that are not only used in commercial applications (including cosmetics) but also have important cellular functions, i.e. Chondroitin sulfate is endogenously synthesized and provides resistance to compression of cartilage. Therefore it is highly questionable to claim that all “sulfates” are bad. We assume that the criticism is referring to one of our surfactants Sodium Laureth Sulphate. Sodium Laureth Sulphate is a commonly used surfactant in many cosmetics since a long time all over the world. Due to its amphiphilic structure it can generate the foam of a shampoo and can solubilize sebum very thoroughly from scalp and hair. Please note that all Alpecin products are generally dermatologically tested. The Wolff-Research undertakes very rigid test procedures. Furthermore our numerous studies and longstanding experience in the field of hair care have proven beneficial effects of our caffeine-containing shampoo products, which also contain Sodium Laureth Sulphate, on the scalp and the hair. Please let us know if you have any further questions. Kind regards, Your Plantur-Team

Is it good for women ?

Greetings, thank you for your interest in our brand. Basically, it doesn't harm women to use our Alpecin shampoo. But to provide the female hair with the optimal nutrients, we recommend using one of our products from our female hair loss brand Plantur 39.

What age of people can use this product?

Greetings, In general all cosmetic and care products by Alpecin are safe when used as intended. That also applies to young people and children who can of course also use our caffeine products. Local skin irritations cannot be excluded to occur in any individual consumer. Please note that our caffeine products efficacy strictly speaking is only evidenced for adults from 18-65 years old. That is because hereditary hair loss in general does not occur before the start of the puberty. Kind regards Your Alpecin Team
