Caffeine, when applied to the scalp protects the scalp against the harmful effects of testosterone, which can be converted into the hair killer DHT, the common cause of mail pattern hair loss.
Research from scientists at German universities showed that using caffeine topically may be an emerging weapon against hair loss and also help to stimulate hair growth.

In clinical testing, caffeine has been shown to stimulate the production of cells in hair follicles. This counters the undesirable effect of DHT and testosterone, which cause the hair follicle to narrow until it stops producing healthy hair. As a result, hair follicles treated with caffeine exhibited up to 46% more growth than untreated follicles.

Caffeine also helps fight the suppression of hair growth induced by testosterone. In fact, testing showed that caffeine was not only able to fight the effects of testosterone, but is also able to stimulate growth beyond the normal level.
You should know that ingesting excess caffeine from food and drink does not help hair loss and may be a contributor to hair loss. The research supports applying caffeine directly to the scalp as formulated in Follicare Topical Spray.
