This is not an actual review, because I haven't read the book. I just wanted to share a hair loss recipe with you good people - the one that helped me.

I am a woman, 32 years old. I have had my hair falling out at above average rate since puberty. For a woman, a number of hairs falling out shouldn't be more than 70 per day. I would say that for me it was probably around 200. I was used to seeing bunches of hairs in the sink after washing it, on the pillow, on clothes. Then, few months ago, few factors (hairdresser made a horrible mistake, I made serious changes in my diet and was under a lot of stress) added up and for the next three months I was losing hair at the rate 500 (very roughly - I didn't actually count, but every time I ran fingers through my hair, I would have hairs in my hand). I thought I would end up bald. Then, I found a recipe on the Internet (bless it), and after using it every day, I can testify that it really works! Within the first month, the hair loss returned to normal (what was normal for me - maybe 200 hairs a day), and within the second month, my hair loss became less than average - I would say less than 50 hairs a day! The sink is almost empty after washing hair. I actually solved the problem I have been having my whole adult life.

The recipe:
1 1/2 cup of nettle
1/2 cup chopped onion
Put in a container, add enough alcohol to cover. After a few days (or more), strain and use liquid to massage scalp once a day.

I bought this book expecting alot of insightful information, but most of the contents are very generic. If you suffer from hair loss, I would suggest reading a book from consumer advocate authors like Daniel Lawrence or Stanley Kobren rather than from a doctor such as this one who just gives a broad general medical opinion on the subject.

I have read a few books on hair loss and I must say that this one was the easiest to read by far. It uses basic medical terms and is clearly written for someone who is new to hair loss and wanting to find a solution. If you are looking for facts is an easy-to-read format, then this book is for you.

Good book...easy to read, great photos and answered all of the questions I had regarding my hair loss. I heard of Dr. Alvi before and am seriously looking into him performing my hair transplant procedure.

I love this book!!!

It is detailed oriented and gave me know how to take care of my hair.

It won't overwhelm you with overly complicated medical terms but explain things clearly and to the point.

After reading it I knew more than my family doctor about hair loss!!

I find this book very well written, easy to read and informative.

There is nothing that it does not cover. It clearly tells you what you can do about your hair loss.

Excellent!!!
