Ciola Shampoo is from dangerous chemicals like paraben and SLS. Climbazole is used in Ciola shampoo to reduce dandruff, itching, and scalp redness. The main function of Piroctone Olamine is to soak and reduce the scalp.

It is often seen that this problem of hair cannot be eradicated on its own, for this, good treatment is required. People who suffer from dandruff and SD often use a shampoo that contains Ketoconazole in high concentration.

A recent study suggests ketoconazole may prevent hereditary hair loss and helps to regrowth of hair. Lots more studies related to it underway.

Let me tell you a fact that ketoconazole is not only a proven anti-dandruff ingredient shampoo that helps in the regrowth of hair, Piroctone olamine is more effective than ketoconazole.

Recently a research was conducted, 150 men suffering from hereditary hair loss and dandruff participated. They were given 1% Ketoconazole or 1% Piroctone olamine to use twice a week over 6 months.

We get the result like this,

  • The percentage of hairs in the growth phase increases (Ketoconazole 4.9%, Piroctone olamine: 7.9%)

First let us know the types of hair fall, once you know it you will be able to decide which shampoo is suitable for your hair fall. Generally, there are 6 types of hair fall, but the popular one is only 4, so consider them first.

Hair Fall Types (Types of Hair Loss)

  • Alopecia areata: is a skin condition that causes hair to fall into small patches, initially it is usually ignored by people, but when these patches are connected, they easily noticeable. This condition is caused by the immune system attacking the hair follicle. It can cause sudden hair loss, in some cases, the eyebrows, eyelids, and other parts of the face may also be affected. The most extensive form is alopecia that causes hair loss, and can also prevent hair from growing back. Hair may fall back again after certain days of recovery. Hair regrowth depends on the people, it may differ from person to person.

  • Androgenetic alopecia: The most common form of hair loss is androgenic alopecia. The exact reason is not known but often attributed to family history and genetics. Both males and females can be affected by androgenic alopecia. But hair loss due to androgenic alopecia in men is faster and extensive. A common type of baldness is referred to as androgenetic alopecia. It is believed that hormones and heredity create this form of hair loss. Initially, Men see something moving near temples, Their straight across pattern turns into an M-shaped pattern over time.

  • Telogen effluvium: is a type of scalp disorder in which hair becomes thin, its main reason. being the penetration of hair in the telogen phase. At this stage, the telogen hair starts flowing at an increased rate, although normally the estimated rate of hair fall is 100-125 hair per day, if its rate starts to exceed it then it is a serious problem.

  • Traction alopecia: is also a very popular form of hair loss. Cases of Traction alopecia have increased in recent days. It affects a small area of the hair. The main reason for this is the constant pulling of the hair or applying too much force or traction on the hair roots. Avoid using tight braids and ponytails that stretch on the hair, causing hair fall. Try to use only those hairstyles that put less tension on the hair.

Hair growth cycle

There are mainly three phases in the hair growth cycle which are anagen, catagen, and telogen.

  • Anagen Phase-Do you know your hair grows about 6 inches a year, that is, half an inch every month. Hair grows faster in summer than in winter. The anagen phase lasts for 3–5 years, which means that the full-length hair is on average 18–30 inches.
  • Catagen Phase- The second phase is the catagen phase that lasts up to 2 weeks. The catagen phase is also known as the transitional phase that renews the hair follicle itself.
  • Telogen Phase- Finally there is the telogen phase which is, in reality, a resting phase in which the strands released and fall out. Hair follicles go into inactive mode for three months before starting the whole process again.
