I wear my hair in Dreadlocks, a hairstyle not conducive to daily washing or massaging. Will Revivogen still be as effective if just applied to the affected area and not massaged in or washed off daily?
- By Brian
Dear Brian
A daily wash is suggested however if you wish to wash every other day, that would be fine. To skip any more days than that may impede treatment.
As far as massage is concerned that is only necessary to the extent of getting the product in place not any more than a quick second or two.

My hair is black African American type and is chemically treated.will it work on African hair? Is it ok to use it on chemically treated hair?
- By Beatrice
Dear Beatrice
Revivogen is for all hair types and using it on chemically relaxed hair is perfectly fine.
Dr. Khadavi
I am considering your product b/c it is natural one. I've noticed heavy shedding and thinning of my hair. Being an African American Female, I do not have an oily hair problem. However, I have to use moisture intensive shampoos and conditioners. Currently I am using Esuchen N.P.P.E. Anti Loss Ginseng Shampoo and Alterna Life Restore Scalp and Follicle Serum. However, I know these are mostly cosmetic and my hair loss is accompanied with a coarseness now. I do NOT use oil in my hair and wash once a week. My concern is your product saying to apply to clean hair daily. Washing daily will cause drying and breakage as I would lose more natural oils. How should I use your product when I wash only once or twice a week?
- By Regi P.
Dear Regi P.
You may use Revivogen Scalp Therapy daily and only wash your hair twice weekly. Revivogen is oil based and should not dry your scalp.
Dr. Khadavi
I will like to know how effective your product-revivogen is in African Americans. My hair has been thinning in the frontal part for about 3 years. What kind of result can I expect from using your product and how soon, when I can I say it is not working for me. Finally, which Revivogen product is most important?
- By Juntao
Dear Juntao
Male pattern and female pattern hair loss is due to DHT in all ethnic groups. Since Revivogen reduces DHT, it works to reverse Male Pattern Hair Loss in whites, blacks, Asians or Latinos.[br]The Revivogen scalp therapy is the main component of the treatment. The scalp therapy treatment blocks DHT, the hormone by product that causes hair loss, from reaching the hair follicle. It also generates hair regrowth. The shampoo and conditioner remove DHT on the hair at a topical level, and soothe the scalp as well as thicken the existing hair. The scalp therapy is 95% of the treatment while the bio cleansing shampoo and the thickening conditioner makes up of 5% of the treatment.

I am a man of African descent and I would like to know if your product will work for my receding hairline.
- By Robert
Dear Robert
The cause of hair loss in all races is the same, DHT. Therefore any product that can reduce DHT production including Revivogen can reduce hair loss regardless of the race and regardless of the area where the hair loss is.
Dr. Khadavi
I am black male of 31 years of age. I started losing hair about 4yrs ago. My scalp is thin and the temple is receding especially the right side of my temple. I started using a product called Ervamatin Lotion made in Brazil for about a year now but I do not see any results. Can Revivogen reverse my hair problem as nothing has been said about it helping black people.
- By Amin
Dear Amin
Yes Revivogen works for all races. The hairline is very tricky because you only get a window of a year to treat and reverse the hair loss. No matter what age hair loss in the hairline begins it is the same time frame. After a year the only thing you can do for the hair line is prevent further loss. With the rest of the scalp the most successful any product can be is to give the customer the hair they had 3 years prior to treatment, and prevent further hair loss. Even when the hair doesn't come back its important to block DHT, the hormone by product that cause hair loss, from reaching the hair shaft to protect yourself from further hair loss. It also depends on the age you start treating. If one waits too long, then the best outcome is to prevent further hair loss.

I am a Black woman and only shampoo once per week because of the time effort and stress that shampoo, drying and styling puts on my hair. Will the system work if I only shampoo once per week?
- By Yylevy
Dear Yylevy
t depends on how comfortable you will be with not washing your scalp while using the scalp therapy once a day. The least we recommend shampooing is once every other day and in your case twice a week.
