“I remember being out with my mother when I was in my early teens and looking at the back of her hair and was mortified to see she had a bald patch.

Time went on and I eventually married and went on to have a family of my own. In my early fifties, I was distressed to notice that my hair was thinning at the front and that I had the dreaded bald patch - just as my mothers had! This began the bain of my life forever trying to arrange my hair with clips and all sorts to cover the back.

I resorted to wearing a wig for special nights out, but found this hot and itchy. For a while I took an off the shelf 'hair nail and skin' supplement. Apart from making my nails a little stronger they did not have much effect.

However, I have been taking a nutritional supplement I cannot believe how much my hair has improved.“
