Review: Sunsilk hair fall solution, hair tonic

Recently my hair has been falling none stop, like seriously. Why.
Everyday about 20-30 strands of my hair falls off (yes, I counted) and I am not happy.

So I was in Guardian and this product just went up on the shelf and I decided to get it, because it's the only hair product I found that actually stated it's meant for hair fall.

To use this, you twist the top part and separate your hair into sections and just 'pour' it on the partings(On the scalp, the roots of your hair, not at the ends of your hair or where ever else). 
And then you just rub your scalp so that the product will really sink into the roots of your hair (:

This product is really lightweight and has this really pleasant smell. 
My hair (oily) doesn't feel damp/greasy at all after applying this on. I can't say this adds any volume or softness because it's not meant for that. Your hair just smells nice afterwards and you hope that your hair fall would stop.

It doesn't. After almost a month of using this, my hair fall still continues. On the bottle it says "10X less hair fall"....LOL

However I travelled for a week during the month of using this product. During that week my hair loss went from 20-30 strands a day to 2-5 strands a day. I believe this is because when I was travelling I've been drinking water constantly, at least 1000mL per day and that's why my hair loss was able to reduce so much. 

Maybe the trick to really reduce hair fall is to drink water. I don't believe eating too much junk food will cause hair loss because even when I travelled, I still ate plenty of junk food daily and my hair was still really good( 2-5 strands a day). Now that I'm back from vacation, I've stopped drinking as much water again and my hair fall is coming back...I must start drinking water again

In conclusion, this product did not help and is a waste of money for me(Rm 13 only), but hey, at least it made your hair smell good :P

What I like:
Smells good
Light weight
The design of the bottle is good, easy applicator 

What I don't like:
Not that much help to hair loss really....

Rate: 2/5

Note:
--This is for all the girls reading this review (I can't say 'guys' because I'm not sure if what I'm about to say applies to them)--

I have been told that there are certain months (usually the months of fall and winter) when our hair will fall off more than usual and certain months when our hair tends to fall off less, typically around the months of summer because our hair needs to stay on our head to protect us (well, technically our head/scalp) from heat. 

I've noticed this is exactly what is happening to me. I bought this product when I was having the most hair fall--after summer has ended--and was using it the most around november/december(winter).

Now it's April, and I can definitely say my hair has stopping falling off/breaking off so easily and so much ever since February. 

Please know our hair falling off is only natural and is something body does for us, it does not mean you have hair loss (unless....you are getting bald, of course).
No matter how much you hair might be falling, it'll never be as bad as it seems and you will never go bald!

I have barely used this product since december and here are 3 factors that I'm sure have contributed to my reduced 'hair loss' :)

  1. Stop brushing your hair so frequently. I hardly brush my hair now--only about 3 times a week or whenever I must.
  2. Reduce heat. Wash your hair with low heat. Also try to not curl/straight your hair, learn to enjoy the natural texture of it like I have and work it!!
  3. Drink more water. This does not mean you should start chugging down bottles of water all the time--although I guess that'd be good. Just try to increase your water intake daily. For me, I try to drink at least 3 cups of water a day and that's still pretty bad..:P

  2. I have the problem of hair falling for long time now because I am straightening my hair by rebonding it chemically. I was using many anti-fall hair products and masks, some are good and some aren't. I have bought this product recently (The hair tonic co-creation from Sunsilk by Dr. Francesca) and when I applied it, the result was a disaster. The hair got tangled when I tried to comb it. In the places on which I applied, chunks of hair stood up tangled not falling nicely on my scalp. Moreover, my hair went really dry and the falling was even worse. The situation scared me, completely. I washed my hair as fast as I could! I tried to read the instruction on the back, I couldn't!!! whatever is written in the back, it is written in a tiny size which obviously meant not to be read. I was furious that I brought a magnifying glass to read, The shock was that I couldn't find any instructions on how to use this ridiculous product!!! May I ask, how is the stupid that design these written instructions? Who is the stupid that test this product and decide that it is a solution for heir fall? You are cheating the people here!
