A quality product.
My hair had started looking thinner so I decided to try he shou wu. ive been using the powder in a hot drink most evenings and my hair seems to be shedding less than before. also sleeping a bit better lately which I wasnt really expecting. clean extract with no fillers from crown supplements and much nicer than some of the powders ive bought elsewhere
Quality Product at a reasonable price.
Found he shou wu in a uk supplement search and gave the powder a go. I mix it into tea a few times a week and my hair shedding seems a bit calmer lately
he shou wu powder is a bit niche, but it fits into my herbal mix. I use a small amount in the morning and my hair feels a little stronger lately
he shou wu powder has gone into my morning routine a few times a week. hair feels a bit stronger lately, though it’s early days
Hair support is why I bought he shou wu. I add it in now and then and my hair feels a little less brittle lately
This one is quite bitter, so i only use a little in juice. no trouble with the order and the pouch sealed fine
less than a full spoon is enough for me. he shou wu powder has a bitter taste and needs mixing well
bought this more out of curiosity than anything else. i mix a small amount into a strong drink because the flavour is quite bold, and the clean formula was the main reason i chose it
