Active Ingredients

Minoxidil 5%.

Product Description

Headway, minoxidil 5%, prevent hair loss and pattern baldness now. Headway is a topical solution that is proven to re-grow hair, thicken existing hair, and reduce hair loss. Headway contains minoxidil that has been proven to be the most effective treatment for male or female pattern baldness (alopecia androgenetica) or hair loss to date.

Minoxidil was originally used as a treatment for high blood pressure. Researchers noticed however that their patients taking minoxidil experienced dramatic hair re-growth. The discovery led to the marketing of minoxidil as a topical solution specifically for the promotion of hair growth, halting or reversing hereditary hair loss in both men and women. Headway has been shown to be effective in promoting hair re-growth and in stabilising hair loss.

Hair re-growth may be observed as early as 6 – 8 weeks for some people when using Headway however 4 or more months of continuous use may be necessary before hair growth is observed. The amount of hair re-growth will vary from person to person and depend on the degree of baldness prior to starting treatment. Headway comes with a choice of 2 easy to use applicators either the pump spray or the extended spray tip applicator. One bottle of Headway contains enough minoxidil for approximately for one month’s treatment.

Directions

Apply 1ml (4 sprays) twice per day at 12 hour intervals
