## Questions & Answers

**Q: Don't have a dandruff problem but looking to increase hair growth - re-growth?? - Does this product work??**
A: Not even Alpecin says that it's use will re-grow hair. It does, in my experience, reduce hair loss. I hope the distinction is clear.  I use both the shampoo and the caffeine liquid and my remaining hair is remaining and thick.

**Q: Does it contain any parabens ?**
A: Aqua, Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Laureth-2, Disodium Laureth Sulfosuccinate, Sodium Lauroyl Glutamate, Caffeine, Panthenol, Parfum, PEG-120 Methyl Glucose Dioleate, Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein, Salicylic Acid, Sodium Chloride, Piroctone Olamine, Sodium Citrate, Potassium Sorbate, Citric Acid, Polyquaternium-7, Menthol, Sodium Benzoate, Zinc PCA, Niacinamide, Limonene, Tetrasodium Etidronate, Phenoxyethanol, Methylparaben, Propylparaben, CI 60730.

**Q: Does the bottle have some sort of seal when it comes from the manufacturer?**
A: No alpecin bottles are ever sealed.

**Q: Can women use it?**
A: I think so. Alpecin is very good for me but I'm a man. I can say that I started using a conditioner after leaving the shampoo on for at least 3 minutes. I put the conditioner on the outside of my hair, not messaging it in, and rinse off right away. Using conditioner like this has restored some thickness and weight to my hair, which is good.  Alpecin is working great for me.
