For many years, the hair transplant industry in Turkey (mainly, but also in other countries), has become a niche standard for quite a few people, who are willing to do anything and pay quite a bit to get their hair back, or parts of it.
However, it turns out that there is another way, more bizarre and not yet completely proven, but definitely cheap - wasabi.
Yes yes, you read that right, it turns out that applying fresh wasabi extract should prevent you from baldness and hair loss.
This is a study that was originally done in 2017 and returned to the headlines recently in a more upgraded way.
The one who edited it then is Kinin, one of the largest wasabi manufacturers in the world, and he showed that one of the active ingredients in the plant, the ones that give the spicy taste so delicious to sushi, also encourages growth in hair roots and prevents various infections in our hair follicles.

And now comes the warning phase: Just before you fill your scalp with the green ointment, let’s retreat.
First of all because it was published by a company that makes wasabi, that is, of interest, and secondly, the study did not talk about the same wasabi that we all know from sushi, but about the extract extracted from the plant after cutting it.
In any case, the researchers' prognosis is optimistic, but still, take everything under limited warranty and consult a doctor before deciding on a significant step.
Were we wrong?
Fixed!
