"Really good product for young guys with hair loss" 2009-10-04
By Nick Cooper (Toronto)
I have to admit I am quite impressed with Revita's shampoo. As a 23yr old with hairloss it can be really difficult to cope with, that's the only reason I'm writing this because I understand anyone in my same position is out there looking for any help possible. So here ya go,
My honest opinion is that this stuff does work and does help with reducing hair fall and combating thinning hairs. It wont stop hair loss but it will help to thicken hairs and speed up your hair growth cycle (again, my opinion). I started using the stuff over a year and a half ago, I liked it and continued to use it for a year. I then stopped because I wanted to try other products..it seemed I was maintaining what I had and wanted to see if I could stop hair loss altogether. It was probably the biggest mistake I could have made. After about 3 months I lost tons of frontal hair and all the returning hair was much thinner and brittle. After realizing it was stopping the use of Revita that made everything go south, I ordered online immediately and started using it again. I've been using it for just over 2 months and I have to say my hair is slowly improving again, all that thinned out hair is slowly returning back to health. I'll probably use this product for the rest of my life, I've come to accept that and am happy to know there is something out there that is actually working for me. I wish you all the best of luck, as difficult as it is try not to stress this too much, it'll only make things worse. Stay Classy.
"Hair feels thicker, works great, smells nice!" 2009-08-06
By HaSNoLo (CA, USA)
For the past several years I've been noticing that my hair was thinning; I used to have really thick hair. I didn't think much of it until about a year ago when I started to get really self conscious about it and every year I could see more and more of my scalp. It wasn't to the point of being bald and having to use Rogaine but something needed to be done. I found this product and although it seemed expensive I decided to try it out based on the positive reviews. I'm very glad that I did. I've been using it for 4 months now and I can definitely feel a difference and my girlfriend has commented that she can see and feel the difference too. I use it everyday and you don't need to use much for a guy with short hair. As soon as I used it, my hair felt a little different than my standard shampoo and I'd have to say that it took about a couple of months to start to feel and see a significant improvement. The instructions call for one application for about a minute or two and a second application left on for about 3-5 minutes. That's exactly what I do and you feel the difference once you dry your hair. The first application seems to prepare your scalp and the second really foams up with just a tiny bit. One bottle lasts me 2 months using it everyday and following the directions on the bottle. I've read reviews about Rogaine that say it stings and smells bad and you have to use it twice a day and should not skip a day. This shampoo should be used at least 5 times a week and smells great, it's like an apple smell; I don't experience any stinging. My hair seems to also grow faster so I need more frequent hair cuts but that's not something I'm complaining about; it's definitely hair growth stimulating. This is not for someone who is already bald and wants to grow back hair on a bald spot. This is more for someone who has started to see and feel their hair thinning and wants to stop it from getting worse and get some thickness back in their hair. My hair is not what it was 10 years ago but it looks and feels a lot better now and it combs better too. Highly recommended; it's worth the price for me.
"Excellent product" 2008-09-16
By Wester
First, I will say that I have used more shampoos than I care to count. I have used them all, believe me. Second, I am in my mid 20s and have only noticed a slight receding of the hair line, nothing more. However I have long suffered from generally poor hair: brittle, dry, etc. I have been trying to fight what Ive seen as the inevitable loss of hair figuring the best time to fight it is now before I lose it all.
This is the first product I have ever given a review on and the main reason for doing so is because it is the first that I have been very impressed with. You will notice immediately that it is a very high quality shampoo. I have now used this product for 5 months. Have I experienced hair growth? I don't know actually, but at the very least I am not losing hair in the shower anymore. If it has at least stopped my hair loss then that is good enough for me. What I do know is that my hair has never been healthier and it has never looked as good as it does now. Whereas 5 months ago it was brittle and dry, now it no longer feels like that. At the very least this shampoo will make your hair and scalp healthy, which for me was a noticeable improvement. My mother who hadn't seen me in months even commented on how nice my hair looked.
I will continue to use this product for no other reason than it makes my hair and scalp look and feel better than ever. It may also be fighting hair loss, only time will tell. For the record, I use it as directed (two applications for the maximum time). I also use Billy Jealousy's hair conditioner, although I give little credit to that product for any improvement in my hair as Ive been using that one off and on for a long time.
"Excellent Product & Important Update from Propecia User" 2009-10-24
By shoper1201
I had been using Propecia for two months before trying this product to treat thinning hair and receding hairline (I'm in my mid twenties). At that time, it seemed that my hair loss was slowing down, but I was continuing to lose hair. At that time, I read several books and did extensive research to determine which other products I should use.
Based on my research, I choose Revita and I am very pleased. My hair has grown thicker and my hair stylist actually tried to thin my hair the last time I got a hair cut. Before, you could see my scalp, and now my hair is much thicker. Additionally, my receding hairline seems to have stopped receding. In my experience, the combination of Propecia and revita is an excellent choice. However, I'm not professional and not sure the combination will be effective for everyone, but I do reccomend to all my family and friends with hair loss issues. Additionally, I have long used high end shampoos and conditioners and find Revita to leave my hair very soft and strong. I am thrilled with the product and have had excellent results using Propecia and Revita together. Be sure to use as directed.
"Snake Oil that Actually Works!" 2010-03-22
By Greenband (Plano, TX United States)
I was extremely skeptical about getting results from using this shampoo - essentially it seems like everything rumored to help hair loss was mixed together and thrown into a bottle. There didn't seem to be single ingredient, clinical study that scientifically proved the efficacy of the product.
With a "what the hell" attitude I've tried the product for a few months. If nothing else, people have remarked that it's a good shampoo. As an over 40 male, my hair was getting noticeably thinner but still a relatively full head of hair. After 2 months there is new growth and an increase in thickness - enough so that I think the shampoo is definitely worth the cost and effort. I actually had a co-worker ask me if I got a haircut because my hair looked different somehow.
Side effects - zero, but I typically never have side effects to anything. Looking at other reviews, it seems strange that the results differ so much for individuals.
I've followed the directions - wash about 6 times per week/twice each time (apply/wait 60 seconds/rinse/apply/wait 2-4 minutes/rinse).
My conclusion - if you have light to moderate hair loss it's worth a try.
