Can a hair mask help with hair growth?

Hair masks don’t affect your hair follicles or growth cycle, so they won’t change how fast or how thick your hair grows.

What they can do is improve the health of the hair you already have - helping hydrate, strengthen, and repair damaged strands.

Less breakage = hair that looks fuller, stronger, and healthier over time.

“Real Review: “Since taking The Hairy Pill® my hair is now back to when I was in my 20’s.
It’s thickened right up and I have my hair line back which was disappearing rapidly with menopause. The experience has been no fuss and very easy. The doctors are very attentive and helpful. I definitely made the right choice by engaging in this medication. I would 100% recommend this medication for anyone with thinning hair, woman and men, the results are amazing and I’ve had absolutely no side effects.” -Kim

Have you noticed more hair fall in summer?

Increased sunlight can cause hormonal changes in melatonin production, which can affect hair loss. Also environmental stressors such as UV rays, heat, sweat, and chlorine can push more hairs from the growth phase into the resting phase which can lead to more shedding.

If this is the cause, it’s usually temporary, so you can expect hair loss to subside.

Will you be able to take your treatment home on the same day? Your personalised treatment still needs to be made just for you.

All in-store purchases are treated the same as online orders, which means;

1) Your questionnaire is sent to one of our partner doctors to review
2) A pharmacist will call you to discuss your prescription
3) The pharmacy will compound your treatment
4) Your bottle is express shipped to you

Purchasing in-store doesn’t mean any less personalisation, it just means you get the chance to speak to a pharmacist first.

If you’re not close to a Direct Chemist Outlet store, you can always call our Melbourne-based Patient Services Team with any questions you may have, or send us a DM.

Menopause hair loss can feel confronting, frustrating, and often unexpected. One day your hair feels normal, and the next you’re noticing more strands in the shower, a widening part, or a significant loss of volume. The good news? For many women, hair thinning during menopause is at least partly manageable, especially when addressed early. This […]

We all start with about 100,000 hairs on our heads in our teens. But as time passes, many men will notice the thick mop on top start to thin out. It might be the receding hairline that gives it away. Or a photo of yourself from behind that highlights a potential bald spot. The symptoms […]

Hair Growth Supplements vs Medication

We’ve all seen them: the colourful bottles lining pharmacy shelves promising a “thick mop” of hair with just one daily vitamin. It sounds almost too easy, doesn’t it? If you’re sceptical, you’re on the right track. While supplements can give your hair a nutritional boost, they aren’t formulated to stop balding or wake up “sleeping” […]

Many people around the world have sworn by the low-carb, high-fat keto diet. It’s been so popular that you might be asking: what’s the catch? Sure, you might shed some weight on keto.

Our hair follicles are busy bees. As highly active parts of our body, they need nutrients to produce healthy hair.

Some studies have […]

Hair loss is rarely ever a pleasant experience but it can be comforting to know that it’s a fairly common one — yes, even among women.

The Link Between Hair Loss & Testosterone

Testosterone often takes the blame for hair loss. But the impact the male sex hormone has on how your hair grows — and sheds — isn’t clean cut. Scientific research links testosterone to both men’s hair loss and hair loss in women. But it’s an indirect link at best. A bunch of other factors are […]

Creatine is a bit of a gym hero; it helps your muscles squeeze out a few extra reps, recover faster, and support long-term muscle growth.
