8 Years Strong, and still going strong
I’ve been using alpecin shampoo for at least 8 years now. Honestly, I can’t tell you how good it is compared to other shampoos, because I haven't used anything else in all that time! When I first started using it, it was due to hair fall, and it actually stopped my hair from falling out.Fast forward to today, and I still have a full head of hair. When people ask me the secret behind my beautiful, manly locks, I don’t tell them because it’s a secret! 😉

Really has made a difference
Since I started using Alpecin all the time, my hair has thickened up and become much more manageable. It may be more expensive but the difference it makes is worth the extra, and actually you don’t use as much as a cheap shampoo, so it’s not as expensive as it first seems, especially buying in bulk

Overall very good
I spent a few years very stressed from my job and noticed that the hair around my corners and temples had started to recede slightly. Having got my stress under control I have noticed some small hair regrowth in the areas. I dont know if it is a coincidence but since i started using this shampoo i have noticed even more regrowth. I cant really comment on this products effectiveness in male pattern baldness but i do know that MPB runs on one side of my family so i will be using this product probably for the rest of my life just in case!The reason i gave it 5 stars is that, regardless of its affects on hairloss (which despite some skepticism around this product i believe that it probably does make a difference to most people), it is actually the best shampoo i've ever used! my hair feels really soft and thick, i have quite fine hair and it seems to have given it a lot more volume. It smells quite nice as well and just generally feels great!Overall this is a great product and certainly worth a punt as it is fairly cheap, i have recommended it to my dad who has started to thin on top and will be interested to see if he notices any difference

Overall: Worth trying!
I have naturally fine hair but always had a good 'hairline', but the last year hair strands had started falling out not only when I wash, but also if i even ran my fingers through it, and my hair line was at the early stages of receding. I know it is normal to loose so many a day, but it had never happened before. After one wash I noticed a difference, when i wash my hair i loose on average about 2-4 strands. It used to be at least 10+. I think it has started regrowing the small wispy hairs at the front of the hairline, but I've been using it for 1 month so hard to confirm.However, this product would be no cure for baldness, it's more a good for strengthening what you have, and giving you peace of mind you aren't going to loose a dozen strands every time you touch your hair or wash it!

Great Shampoo for hair and scalp
First off if you are expecting to use this shampoo and in 6 months have a new mane to show then you need to re-think your approach! This shampoo will not regrow your hair, however what it will do is make your scalp more hospitable to your current hair and in my view reduce hair loss.My hair is very fine and my scalp always been a bit flaky at certain time of the year, after using this for 6 months the difference in my scalp was night and day, no more flakiness and my hair definitely felt thinker and easier to style.3 years on and i would say that thickness has increased slightly but the scalp is the big difference, that gives your hair the best possible conditions to grow and I am sure it stopped my hair getting any finer and I could not be happier with the results.

Unsure of the benefits
I have been using this regularly but haven't noticed any major difference apart from my hairs getting more grey these days! I have been keeping it on my head for longer than 3 minutes sometimes to get maximum benefits but yet to see outcome.
