Rosemary Essential Oil
Rosemary essential oil is extracted through steam distillation from the leaves of rosmarinus officinalis (rosemary) plant. Rosemary essential oil is a popular herb that has been used in culinary preparations and traditional herbal medicine for centuries. Rosemary essential oil is also frequently used in clinical aromatherapy to enhance cognitive functions of the brain; improving memory, alertness and concentration.
Rosemary Essential Oil Lowers Dihydrotestosterone in Hair Follicles
A study published in the Phytotherapy Research suggests that rosemary essential oil contains phytochemicals that suppress the action of enzyme 5-alpha-reductase in converting testosterone to dihydrotestosterone. Dihydrotestosterone is the androgen hormone that causes the hair follicles in some men and women to shrink gradually and stop growing hair. By lowering dihydrotestosterone in hair follicles, rosemary essential oil helps revive dying follicles and stimulates hair growth.

Rosemary Essential Oil vs Minoxidil
A clinical study showed that rosemary essential oil is equally as effective as minoxidil in promoting hair growth in people with androgenetic alopecia (Skinmed - Dermatology for the Clinician).
Rosemary Essential Oil in Hair Loss Solution Products
Due to its ability to reduce dihydrotestosterone levels in hair follicles, rosemary essential oil is one of the favourite herbs for the treatment of hair loss. I use rosemary essential oil in my hair loss formulas, Hair Growth Serum and Scalp Stimulator. I formulated these products to solve my own hereditary hair loss problems.
My hair especially on the front and crown of the scalp have been affected by androgenetic alopecia. Fortunately, with regular daily use of Hair Growth Serum and Scalp Stimulator, my hair slowly grows back. When you are dealing with hair loss, you need to be consistent and persistent in using the treatment products. On average, hair grows about half an inch per month, so it takes time to see visible results. After the hair fall, hair follicles rest for about 100 days before they start growing new hair, therefore, Henry Tianus Hair Loss Solution should be used daily and continuously for at least 6 months. I have been using Hair Growth Serum and Scalp Stimulator everyday for years and my hair keeps growing stronger and fuller with time.

Hair Growth Serum is a water-base hair growth stimulator that contains caffeine, niacinamide, menthol, thyme, cedarwood and rosemary oil to promote hair growth and reduce hair loss. For best results, use it twice a day, morning and evening. It is quickly absorbed, soon after you apply this serum to the affected areas of the scalp; you can style your hair as usual.
Scalp Stimulator is an oil-base pre-shampoo scalp rejuvenator. I love the instant cooling sensation every time I apply Scalp Stimulator on my scalp. Formulated with vitamin E, menthol, rosemary, thyme, lavender and lemon essential oils; Scalp Stimulator should be gently massaged into the affected areas of the scalp to rejuvenate hair follicles and improve the condition of thinning hair. Leave it for 20 to 30 minutes before you wash your hair with a gentle shampoo. For best results, use it once a day.
" Developed over 15 years to reactivate dormant hair follicles and stimulate growth."
