After using Ducray Anaphase+ shampoo, you noticed increased hair shedding. Is this a normal reaction or a reason to stop using it? Here is a clear explanation:
Ducray Anaphase+ is a stimulating shampoo designed to activate the scalp and hair follicles. In some cases, a temporary increase in hair shedding can occur during the first weeks of use.
This happens because the product may accelerate the transition of weakened hairs from the resting phase into the renewal phase. Such a reaction can be considered acceptable if it is short-term and not accompanied by scalp discomfort.
However, there are clear signs that indicate the product should be stopped immediately:
– hair shedding increases week by week
– itching, burning, or scalp pain appears
– hair becomes brittle and overly dry
– not only weakened hairs, but also visibly healthy hairs are falling out
If the hair loss is pronounced, lasts longer than three to four weeks, or is accompanied by unpleasant sensations, this is no longer considered a normal adjustment phase. In this case, the shampoo is not suitable for you, and continued use may worsen the problem.
It is recommended to stop using the product, document the changes, and consult a specialist. It is also advisable to keep the packaging and receipt, as an adverse reaction to a cosmetic product can be grounds for a formal complaint.
Posting a complaint on Xolvie helps draw the brand’s attention to such cases and warns other users who may have similar concerns.
