Shampoos that meet the guidelines for both stopping and restoring hair include:

• Hair Growth Botanical Renovation Sulfate-Free Scalp Stimulating Shampoo
• Organic Hair Loss Shampoo With Plant Stem Cells for Hair Recovery and Regrowth
• Nioxin Cleanser
• PhytoWorx Organic Hair Loss Shampoo With Plant Stem Cells for Hair Recovery and Regrowth
• Pura D or Argan Oil Premium Organic Anti-Hair Loss Shampoo
• Ultrax Labs Hair Surge Caffeine Hair Loss Hair Growth Stimulating Shampoo

• Avoid volumizing shampoos as they can eventually speed up hair loss. There is a big difference between a shampoo that actually regrows hair and one that contains volumizers to make it look thicker
• Nioxin products are part of a system of three products; you can't buy the Cleanser only, you have to buy the entire system.
