One of the most frequently asked questions I’ve received over the past few years has been around hair loss and how best to treat and prevent it. As a qualified beauty expert working on scalp health, I’ve tested and recommended many formulas and products myself. Those of you who know me will also know that I have suffered my own hair loss throughout periods of illness, stress, shock and hormonal changes so I understand how distressing it can be. If you are suffering with extreme hair loss, do always check with your GP first to ensure that there are no other medical conditions causing it, as hair is an important health indicator.
I wanted to offer you the chance to buy the key products from haircare brand Percy & Reed that I know worked for me by sharing the following code: ALISON20
Use at checkout to receive 20% off all full-size products until the end of October across www.percyandreed.com. You can also use this code to receive a fantastic discount on two special collections that I’ve created for you – see below and don’t miss out on these better than half price offers.
After my illness in 2022, I lost about a third of the hair on my scalp. A formula that I really put to the test following this was the Percy & Reed Give Me Strength Range and it absolutely blew me away. By this point my hair was falling out in handfuls and the day that I started using the Percy & Reed Give Me Strength Strengthening Scalp Concentrate was almost to the day that it stopped. This may sound miraculous, and may be a coincidence, but the results were so phenomenal that I continued to use it. Even my hairdresser commented on the speed of my hair growth in both the areas that had gone completely bald (I had a large patch at the back of my hair) and the areas that were thinning, especially around my hairline.
Strengthening Starter Kit, £52 with code ALISON20
If you’d like to try the full-size starter kit that includes both the 250ml size of the Give Me Strength Strengthening Shampoo and Conditioner, as well as two 50ml sizes of the Scalp Concentrate and the Soothing Scalp Massager Tool, this collection will allow you to experience the full system.
The Give Me Strength Shampoo and Conditioner instantly made my hair look full enough to feel confident enough to return to work, even though it was thinning. When your hair is feeling at its most vulnerable and brittle with breakage and snapping, the shampoo and conditioner deeply moisture with extracts such as coconut and camelia which help to prevent hair breakage, as well as Vitamin B3 and soothing Aloe Vera for their anti-irritation and calming properties to treat the scalp and reduce dryness.
I keep the Soothing Scalp Massager tool permanently in the shower which helps to stimulate the scalp.
The most important product I’ve continued to use, even when I’m testing other shampoos & conditioners, is the Give Me Strength Strengthening Scalp Concentrate. I saw regrowth within a few weeks after applying and cannot recommend enough!
Scalp Care Starter Kit, £24 with code ALISON20
For me, the Strengthening Scalp Concentrate is the hero product in the Give Me Strength range.
Apply and massage all over the scalp area on towel-dried hair after shampooing and conditioning but before blow-drying. You can also massage a few drops daily into the scalp on key areas that need a little more help.
This whole range is also fantastic for any type of hair thinning (suitable for all genders), breakage or weakening of which the causes can be due to ageing, hormones, pregnancy and menopause through to illness, stress and lifestyle factors.
Please note this discount code excludes kits, other than the two above, as well as discounted items and travel sizes. Available until the end of October.
