Tonu1973, Thank you for your comment. Vitamins are very important to prevent hair loss and herbs can actually regrow hair. Only you have to have some patience for two to six months to see the results.

I don't know what is in the onion, but I've got to give that one a try. If I see any hair growth, I'll try to stop back and let you know.
