My hair's thin & short but a £12 buy helped it grow so full & thick – I can't believe the difference & it smells amazing
Plus, the evidence behind rosemary-based hair products and if they really work GROW ON! My hair's thin & short but a £12 buy helped it grow so full & thick – I can't believe the difference & it smells amazing Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) HAIR loss is a result of many factors; menopause, diet changes, list goes on. And it can really affect a person when they see clumps of hair falling out, or excess shedding. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 You lose between 50 and 100 hairs a day Credit: GETTY 2 The tonic has been around for over 200 years Credit: BOOTS Whilst the hair goes through a natural cycle, with it being normal to lose between 50 and 100 hairs a day, any more and it starts to become a concern. Several shoppers who have experienced hair loss for a variety of reasons are claiming to have found a product that is brilliant at stimulating new hair growth. The Weleda Rosemary Revitalising Hair Tonic is usually £13.95 but is currently on offer for £10 at Boots. Holland & Barrett also sell it for £15.95. It's a "natural treatment against hair and scalp problems, hair loss, thinning or brittle hair, dandruff and dryness". The product description reads: "Used for centuries to stimulate the circulation, rosemary helps restore the health of the scalp, while stonecrop and horseradish extracts work together to discourage microbial development and reduce inflammation." The benefits are said to be: Strengthens hair, invigorates scalp and nourishes hair roots Reduces hair loss and promotes hair growth Uplifting rosemary scent, suitable for men and women Dermatologically tested, certified natural hair care Free from synthetic preservatives, fragrances, colourants or raw materials derived from mineral oils But what do customers think? Giving if five stars, Lesley Anne said: "I've been using this product day and night for nearly three months and I can't get over the difference in my hair. I have typically thin, short hair but I recently noticed more thinning than usual so I gave this a go! 'I'm in shock at how well this has worked in a month' shoppers praise budget Amazon buy for curing their hair loss & it's currently on sale "I wish you could post pictures here because the difference is honestly unbelievable. I'm not concerned about tying up my hair anymore, no it looks full and thick. Not surprised Weleda are still selling this product, it is absolute gold!" Daria shared her experience using the product: "Very good for hair growth, using for the second time and love it." Yasemin's review read: "It definitely stimulated new hair growth around my temples which is where I apply the tonic. pleasant smell and not too runny/oily once applied. Recommend." Veronika also had great things to say about the tonic: "The product is perfect, it actually helps to grow a new hairs and keep the hair healthy." Hair re-growth FAQs Anabel Kingsley, Consultant Trichologist and Brand President at Philip Kingsley spoke exclusively to Fabulous. How long does it take for hair to grow back? Hair grows, on average, half an inch a month. You cannot speed this up. Do rosemary oil and scalp massages work? Oils do not promote hair growth. In terms of rosemary oil, the current trend stems from one small study carried out on 50 men in 2015. No women were involved, and the study compared the effects of 2 per cent minoxidil to Rosemary oil. 2 per cent minoxidil doesn't do much for male pattern hair loss anyway, so the results were not very impressive. Oils do serve a purpose in conditioning hair treatments though. They help add shine and smooth the hair cuticle to lock-in moisture and improve combability. Scalp massages alone won't cure hair loss, but it can help relax you, aid in lymphatic drainage, exfoliate and help topicals penetrate. Are there any products or foods/vitamins you recommend someone using or eating to help with hair regrowth? To support healthy hair regrowth, if you are experiencing hair thinning we'd recommend our Density Preserving Scalp Drops clinically proven to help slow hair loss with continued daily use within three months. Telogen effluvium (hair shedding) due to nutritional deficiencies can often be simply treated with changes to your diet, and nutritional supplements such as our specially formulated Density Healthy Hair Complex and Density Amino Acid Booster. Iron and Ferritin (stored iron) in red meat, dried apricots and dark, leafy greens. Vitamin B12 in animal products and fortified plant-based foods. Protein from oily fish, lean meat, cottage cheese, tofu, nuts, chickpeas, and beans. However, there may be an underlying cause for their hair loss and rather than this being masked by using an off-the-shelf product, they should be encouraged to seek the advice of a specialist such as a Trichologist. However, not everyone who has used it raves about it. Karen explained: "Only half way through first bottle and am squinting my head brain eyes trying to see a difference and nothing!" Another also failed to see new hair growth: "Being a huge fan of Weleda products, I was so excited to try this, but sadly I didn't notice any difference. I used it every morning and night for around 4/5 months (I purchased two bottles)." What's the evidence behind rosemary oil for hair growth? Rosemary oil is believed to stimulate hair follicles and improve scalp circulation, potentially leading to hair growth. It's often used as a natural alternative to minoxidil, a medication used for the treatment of high blood pressure and pattern hair loss, with some studies suggesting it may be equally effective. While more research is needed to fully understand its benefits, many individuals report positive results from using rosemary based products for hair growth.

Are YOU in the diabetes danger zone? The string test that reveals key sign – plus how to REVERSE silent killer
We also reveal three signs you are suffering from prediabetes if taking specific drugs, and subtle skin changes linked to the silent killer SPOT THE SYMPTOMS Are YOU in the diabetes danger zone? The string test that reveals key sign – plus how to REVERSE silent killer IT'S dubbed a silent killer, triggering 568 heart attacks, 812 strokes and 184 amputations each week in England alone. Millions of people are at risk of developing type 2 diabetes, yet have no clue of the potential deadly timebomb waiting to explode. But how do you know if you're among those on the precipice of a diagnosis? Advertisement 5 We share some warning signs that may indicate you're prediabetic Credit: Getty Over 10,000 Brits are living with end-stage kidney failure due to the condition, and it causes thousands more to go blind. Type 2 diabetes also raises the risk of eight different types of cancer. Every two minutes a new case is diagnosed, and a staggering 4.6million Brits have been diagnosed with it - but experts warn 6.3million of us are living in the diabetes 'danger zone'. If this non-diabetic hyperglycaemia, or prediabetes, is left untreated, we could go on to develop type 2 diabetes. Advertisement Dr David Unwin, a GP in Southport, Merseyside and the Royal College of General Practitioners' clinical expert on diabetes, tells Sun on Sunday Health: 'When I trained at university, type 2 diabetes only affected people over 60. 'Sadly that has changed a huge amount in the last 40 years. Now it's not unusual to see patients in their early 20s with diabetes or prediabetes. Tragically, we're even starting to see young children diagnosed. 'That's really worrying, as diabetes damages your arteries over time. 'If you're diagnosed at 70, there's less time for the damage to occur. But if you're diagnosed in your 20s, it will begin earlier. 'Diabetes is shortening lives - through cardiovascular disease, stroke and an increased risk of cancer.' Advertisement Prediabetes is the period in which blood sugar levels are elevated but full-blown diabetes hasn't yet begun. High blood pressure, high cholesterol and type 2 diabetes are all dubbed 'silent killers' - should we really be that worried? Esther Walden, senior clinical advisor at Diabetes UK, says if you have this you are at 'high risk' of developing type 2. But Dr Unwin believes knowing this could be 'good news'. 'This is an early warning sign of something that doesn't have to happen,' he says. 'It's a golden opportunity to cut back on foods that raise blood sugar, exercise more and generally be a bit healthier. Advertisement 'Loud and clear, I want to send a message that warding off this illness isn't necessarily complicated. You can turn your life around.' Many people with prediabetes may not be aware as it's symptomless. But here, Dr Unwin shares some warning signs that may indicate you're one of them. 1. STRING TEST IT'S not just being overweight but the distribution of fat that matters. If you're big around the middle, you're at an increased risk. We call this 'central obesity'. Advertisement Cut a piece of string to the same length as your height then fold it in half and wrap it around your waist. If the string meets or overlaps, you're off the hook. But if you can't make the ends touch, you're more likely to develop diabetes. 2. ARE YOU TATT? 5 If you're tired all the time, make sure to check your blood sugar Credit: Getty MANY patients think they're tired all the time simply due to getting older. But I would always check for prediabetes as your blood sugar might be too high or low. Advertisement 3. WHAT'S YOUR NUMBER? 5 Being diagnosed with high blood pressure is another prediabetes risk factor Credit: Getty BEING diagnosed with high blood pressure - when the force of blood flowing through your blood vessels is too high - is another risk factor. The NHS defines this as 140/90mmHg when measured by a healthcare professional. You can get yours checked for free at your GP surgery or local pharmacy. HOW TO REVERSE PREDIABETES WHILE Diabetes UK believes around half of prediabetes patients can reduce their risk of developing the disease, Dr Unwin says they have reversed all cases at his surgery. 'We offered 100 patients with prediabetes a low-carb diet at my practice. Two years later, not one had developed diabetes and 93 per cent ended up with normal blood sugar, reversing this prediabetes just by making a few lifestyle changes,' he says. 'Many also lost weight, their blood pressure improved - all without medication.' Remember: it's not just cakes and biscuits that raise your blood sugar levels. Dr Unwin says: 'Sugar itself is obvious, but the thing that most people miss - and I missed it myself for years - is that starchy carbohydrates like bread, breakfast cereals, potatoes and rice digest down into surprising amounts of sugar. 'A 150g portion of boiled rice and a medium-sized baked potato are each roughly equivalent to 10 teaspoons of sugar. 'You should focus on eating more green vegetables and protein.' Esther believes weight loss is key to reversing the condition. 'If you are overweight or obese and at high risk of type 2 diabetes, even small amounts of weight loss can be beneficial,' she says. 'Losing five per cent of your body weight can significantly reduce your risk.' If you are worried you might have prediabetes, speak to your GP. Support is also available from Diabetes UK ( 0345 123 2399). 4. DRUG ALERT 5 Taking steroids for conditions such as asthma means you're more at risk and being more tired than usual could be a sign Credit: Getty Advertisement PEOPLE taking steroids for conditions such as asthma or arthritis are at higher risk as they can increase your blood sugar levels. Look out for signs like going to the toilet more frequently, feeling really thirsty and being more tired than usual. 5. SKIN DEEP ANOTHER possible sign of prediabetes is darkened patches of skin on certain parts of the body, like the neck, armpits or groin. Known as acanthosis nigricans, this can indicate the body is struggling to manage blood sugar. 6. TESTING TIMES IF you've had a blood test and your triglycerides (fat in your blood) were high, you are in the diabetes danger zone. Advertisement Having raised liver enzymes or an abnormal liver function test is another risk factor. More than two thirds of the UK population now has fatty liver, which reduces your ability to deal with sugar and refined carbs like bread. 7. MUM'S THE WORD 5 Gestational diabetes usually disappears after giving birth but you should still get your blood tested for up to 13 weeks after giving birth GESTATIONAL diabetes - high blood sugar during pregnancy - usually disappears after giving birth. But women who have had it at any age are still at increased risk of prediabetes - particularly those aged 40-plus, with a BMI above 30. Advertisement You should have a blood test to check for diabetes six to 13 weeks after giving birth, and annually after that if the result is normal. 8. FAMILY HISTORY CERTAIN ethnic groups are more susceptible to insulin resistance from the age of 25. This includes those of South Asian, Afro-Caribbean and Black African descent. 9. THE CHANGE WHILE men are more likely to develop diabetes, a woman's risk increases around menopause. Once you hit 'the change', you're in the danger zone. Advertisement
