Hair loss is a concern that can affect individuals of all hair types, with roughly one-third of women experiencing it at some point in their lives. Among postmenopausal women, the issue is even more prevalent, with nearly two-thirds reporting hair thinning, according to a review by Harvard Health.
While hair loss can be challenging, a variety of treatments are available, particularly topical solutions designed to stimulate hair growth. One such product gaining attention is Nécessaire’s Scalp Serum, a consumer-favorite recognized by the National Eczema Association for being free of potentially irritating ingredients.
Priced at $48, Nécessaire’s Scalp Serum is formulated with biomimetic peptides and red clover to promote thicker, healthier hair. Biomimetic peptides mimic naturally occurring peptides and proteins in the body, enhancing blood circulation to deliver oxygen and nutrients that stimulate hair follicles.
“Biomimetic peptides often target the anagen phase, or the active growth phase, improving overall hair density and thickness by strengthening follicle attachment and supporting healthier growth,” explains Dr. Divya Shokeen, a board-certified dermatologist and owner of OSVI Dermatology and Surgical Institute.
Red clover complements this effect by increasing blood flow to hair strands while reducing inflammation that can contribute to hair loss. “This plant extract can help balance hormonal fluctuations that may contribute to hair loss, particularly in women,” Dr. Shokeen adds. Research indicates that red clover may also inhibit dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone associated with thinner and shorter hair strands.
With its combination of scientifically backed ingredients and dermatologist endorsement, Nécessaire’s Scalp Serum is emerging as a notable option for women seeking effective hair loss treatments.
