Going bald? Coffee shampoo can help...

November 26 2004 at 04:35PM

Hamburg - Treating hair with caffeine products can stop men from going bald, according to a new German study.

Professor Peter Elsner, part of the team at the Jena University, said that the stimulant has the most effect on men whose hair roots were very sensitive to testosterone, one of the causes of hair loss.

But the research does not mean that coffee drinkers will be spared a bald head in later life, only those who smear it directly on their heads.

Adolf Klenk of Kurt Wolff cosmetic research said: "One would have to drink between 60 and 80 cups of coffee a day for the necessary amount of caffeine to reach the roots."

He said that men who are frightened that they may lose their hair should start treating their scalps with caffeine while they are still young. - Ananova.com :roll:

Is this stuff only in Germany?

I wonder if there is anyone from Sweden here who knows if this liquid sells in any store there. In other case I just have to drink my coffee from the outside of my head :cry: ... Or maybe visit Germany, it isn't so far away.
