Frequently Asked Questions
What type of hair loss is treatable?
There are different types of hair loss in both male and females, but the most common condition by far is so-called “genetic hair loss” or medically termed, androgenetic alopecia. When experienced by men, the hair line moves back, leading to the typical M shaped hairline. In more advanced cases , the top of the skull may also experience thinning. This is commonly known as “male-pattern baldness”.
Woman can also suffer from this condition, caused by changes in the levels of androgenic hormones, or certain medicines, such as estrogenic oral contraceptives. Stress, inflammation and nutrient deficiencies can also significantly contribute to hair loss and poor hair health which is why mint hair contains scientifically proven and clinically studied ingredients such D-Biotin and Curcumin.
Why does mint hair use natural ingredients?
Nature has most answers to health issues, usually buried deep in rain forests or in rare desert shrubs. mint hair combines some of the most effective, scientifically studied and widely used natural extracts to support hair health with the purpose of making healthy choices with minimal to no side effects available to all men and women who need it. Natural ingredients with health benefits (known as nutraceuticals), can often be more potent than allopathic or synthetic medications, but often have less side effects due their organic composition. Our bodies recognise nutraceuticals as a nutrient or food versus a foreign, inorganic substance which can often cause unintended adverse side effects throughout the body.
Is this product only for men or can women use it?
Mint hair targets 3 core causes of hair loss and poor hair health that are common in men and women. Both men and women can use the mint hair protocol and begin a truly holistic and natural approach to tackle their hair loss or hair health issues. However, women who are pregnant, breast feeding or at risk of any hormone related illnesses should not use mint hair. If you are unsure, we recommend consulting with a health specialist or your doctor before introducing any health supplement into your diet.
Can I use mint hair if I am taking Finasteride and/or Minoxidil?
If you are using Minoxidil, then mint hair may work well in combination with. Because Finasteride and mint hair have similar properties of inhibiting 5-Alpha Reductase and blocking DHT, we recommend halving the mint hair daily dose as well as checking with your health practitioner that prescribed Finasteride. The Biotin and Curcumin in mint hair should further support hair health during any hair treatment protocol.
How long must I wait before I can expect to see results?
3 months is the recommended period when one can expect to see results after consistent and uninterrupted use of mint hair. Each person is unique and some may experience results within 3 weeks or slightly after 3 months. Be patient and maintain a healthy and balanced diet to give your body the best chance to adjust.
If I am bald, can I use mint hair?
Prevention is better than the cure when it comes to hair loss. mint hair will not be able to grow all your hair back but the the benefits of the natural ingredients can support hormonal health, skin health and reduce inflammation througout the body.
I have acne, can mint hair help with that?
Hormones have a major role in the development of acne. Although the exact mechanism behind their powerful influence is unknown, we do know that androgen hormones gum up the follicle by triggering oil production. There have been cases where our active ingredients focused on blocking DHT and regulating androgenic hormones have been reported to significantly reduce adult acne. If you are experiencing adult acne we recommend discussing the potential use of mint hair to address the condition with your health specialist or doctor.

Are there any side effects that might occur?
The natural composition of mint hair is designed to reduce any possible side effects that could occur in both men and women. Taking it with food or 300-500ml of water will help any possible digestive sensitivity as the formulation is highly concentrated and may aggravate the digestive tract for those with any heightened sensitivity. We always recommend listening to your body, especially when introducing a new health supplement or protocol into your routine. If you experience any adverse side effects such a nausea, dizziness or any form of discomfort after taking a dose of mint hair it is recommended to discontinue use and consult with a health specialist or doctor before continuing use.
Who should not use it?
Anyone on chronic medication such as blood thinning medication (e.g. Warfarin) should avoid products with curcumin as it can have an anti-coagulant effect, despite such effect often being a positive benefit for most individuals. Further, anyone taking hormone related medication should not use mint hair as the proprietary DHT blocking blend may interfere with the medication and result in unknown effects. Women that are pregnant, breast feeding or at risk of any hormone related illnesses should not use mint hair. If you are still unsure about using mint hair we highly recommend consulting with a doctor or a health specialist.
