Hair loss is quite
common problem nowadays especially for women. Receding hairlines, thinning hair
and hair loss used to be an issue that’s associated to ageing and are more
commonly experienced by men.
However, more and more young women in their late
20s and 30s are experiencing hair loss sooner than expected. Fewer than 45 per
cent of women live their lives with a head full of hair. Studies have shown
that hair loss can be caused by numerous factors which include poor diet,
hormonal changes, effects of medication, hair treatments and others.
Women who
experienced hair loss often also experience psychological distress and impaired
social functioning as a result of it. Hair loss can happen when more follicles
than normal go from Anagen phase (growing phase) to Catagen phase (transition
phase) and when these hairs reach the Exogen phase (shedding phase), hair will
appear thinner. The Telogen phase (resting phase) takes place right after the
Catagen phase and it is during this phase that new hair grows beneath the
existing hair before it sheds. The Telogen phase lasts between three to four
months. Therefore, it is important that we ensure proper nourishment on the
hair scalp during the Anagen phase to promote thicker and stronger hair.
In addressing these
hair issues, Rohto Pharmaceutical in Japan has recently found a breakthrough
formula that could reduce hair loss and recover hair volume by using 50 precious
natural herbal ingredients, which essentially gave the new product its name – 50 Megumi Anti Hair Loss Series. Among
some of the 50 nourishing herbal ingredients found in the 50 Megumi products
include Panax Ginseng and Ginger root extract to strengthen hair roots, Swertia
Japonica extract to protect against hairfall, Hydrolised Collagen to prolong
hair life cycle and Natural orange and lemon extract to enhance deep
penetration into scalp.
The other vital
ingredients also include Shea Butter, Macadamia Seed Oil, Olive Oil, Pine Cone
Extract, Aloe Vera Extract, Sunflower Seed Oil, Seaweed Extract, Caffeine,
Pueraria Root Extract, Rosemary Extract and Jojoba Oil – all of which also
helps prevents hair loss and helps increase hair volume.
The 50 Megumi Anti
Hair Loss Series includes an Anti Hair Loss Treatment as well as two variants
of shampoo and conditioner namely, Moist

The 50 Megumi Anti
Hair Loss Treatment Essence, 160ml (RM150.00) is a must-have product in this Anti
Hair Loss series. The treatment essence is an important haircare step against
hair loss prevention. Just like the essence that is applied onto your face, the
thin consistency of the treatment essence absorbs instantly into the scalp and
hair in delivering all the necessary nourishment and nutrients needed.

scalp. The design of the tip is very handy and easy for me to apply the 50

increase hair volume and reduce hair loss. Apply the treatment essence after
hair is cleansed and conditioned. Massage a small amount onto the scalp and
hair, and leave it to dry.
The texture is light, watery and not sticky
therefore the hair feels light even after application. Moreover, the citrusy
scent of orange and lemon leaves the hair smelling fresh! For visible results,
apply the treatment essence at least twice daily continuously for up to four
months on dry or wet hair before styling. To achieve optimal results against
hair loss, the treatment essence is best paired with the 50 Megumi Anti Hair
