Quick Take: easy to use
Even my hair stylist noticed that my hair was fuller. The problem I have is that it's often out of stock. The applicator isn't hard to use.. Just snap off the top of the vial and shimmy the plastic applicator on all the way.

A miracle the second time around
-03.04.13
Quick Take: easy to use
I have been fighting hair loss for almost 2 years now and am only 20 years old. I have tried everything from dermatologists to naturopaths to find the cause and nothing has really helped. I bought this product once and used it for a few weeks (not enough), didn't see a difference and returned it.
I decided to give it another try - and really made myself believe this was my saviour. After 2 years of losing hair (I haven't been officially diagnosed with alopecia but I have a lot of bald spots and have lost half of my hair) I HAVE REGROWTH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I could not be happier with this. I'm almost done a full box (which I've been stretching out to few months by using half a bottle each application) and there is a lot of little hairs growing in my hairline :D
I've also paired this with taking Materna - if you're experiencing unexplained hair loss I would definitely try it out. I've tried so many meds and spent hundreds but it's just a concentrated amount of vitamins that have given me the extra boost to experience regrowth. Trust me, try this combination out. I cried for months and months at only 19 and almost went into depression because of my hair and I can finally look at myself without feeling sad :D
this changed my life.

Really works!

Quick Take: easy to use, quick results
I have been using this product for one week and have already see a difference. My hair is not falling out as much and hair is growing in areas where I have bald patches due to pregnancy. I highly recommend this product. When using the plastic application make sure to snap in place of the glass vial to ensure the product doesn't empty out all at once.

not terrific
-01.29.13
I really did not see any improvement with this product after using it as directed and faithfully. It could just be my hair growth I dont know. But the product is difficult to deal with after it dries with styling I found, I makes the roots of my hair oily and limp even with the directed amount of product

Worked well, but the application is terrible
-12.30.12
Quick Take: multi-step
I agree with other reviewers that the application system is awful. I had no idea how to do it and the directions were not clear to me. I had a hard time opening the little glass bottles without breaking them. I ended up just dumping the whole thing on my head and massaging in.
That said, I was very happy with the results. My hair grew faster and fuller. I bought this for the purpose of helping my hair grow longer, not necessarily thicker. My hair is already thick enough. But it did help both. It didn't make it too thick, just a little bit more, but it definitely helped my hair grow faster, longer and STRONGER! My hair is very healthy and my stylist is always complimenting me on how healthy and strong my hair is now. I will use this product regularly, but the application system really needs to be revised!

well, it's doing something....
-12.09.12
i have extremely curly (spirally) hair and all the perks that come along with it...dry, unruly, frizzy, etc...and unfortunately, i also have relatively thin hair, as well. for the past year i've noticed way too much hair in my comb after detangling, and breakage all over. i've been taking biotin (and prenatal vitamins. not pregnant, just heard they might help), using sulfate free products, eating quite healthily and yet nothing seems to be helping. i used to straighten my hair very often, but i've stopped using a flat iron and i haven't even blown dry my hair in months. but still...my hair seems to be thinning at a steady pace. (i'm only 31.)
i bought this product, along with the shampoo, hoping to finally get a result. after a few months of using it, i'm sad to say that i haven't noticed any new growth...BUT (very big but) on the days i use the serum (a whole vial, usually twice a week) my hair just looks...fantastic. so much healthier, softer, and FULLER. i've been cocktailing so many different products lately, and yet all i need when i use this is a few spritzes of a leave in conditioner and my hair looks better than it has in years. i also do think there's less hair on my comb. i wish i could give this 4.5 stars, because i don't think 4 is enough, but i'm hesitant to give it 5 only because of the lack of new hair growth.
in regards to the glass vials used for application...okay, i understand it's not the most convenient thing in the world...but i'd rather have the product contained in glass than in plastic any day. i've not had one problem opening them, either. in fact, i kind of love the popping sound it makes when i snap one open. it's like new year's eve. :-)

not effective
-12.05.12
I've now gone through two boxes of this treatment and found it to be ineffective. I have had thinning hair for several months and I've seen no difference from using this expensive product. I did find it easy to use and it dies not have a strong scent or cause irritation. But I do notice that it makes my hair appear thinner on the days I use it because it causes the hair to clump together. I've also been taking the phyto vitamins which have only seemed to help grow my eyebrows. Overall I would not recommend this. I'm looking for something else.

It's still too early to tell if product is effective. The design of the applicator is bad. The first time I used it, it spilled all over my head and part of my face. The applicator does not fit well. I wasted most of it. The second time, I had to use a syringe with a needle to be able to draw the solution from the ampule.

My hair became thinner right after I did a Japanese Perm and this serum worked to help my hair grow back. It helped keep the hair I have and filled out all the spots with no hair. Truly an great natural hair growth product!!!!

Not really sure if it did much or not. But I really didn't like the application system. The glass vial and applicator didn't work well for me. I wouldn't waste my money on this one sorry.

Quick Take: easy to use, quick results, add good nutrition to hair
I love this product. It makes my hair shine and my hair grows thicker and faster. I don't have any split ends even my hair is pretty long. I start using it regulary, two times a week after shampooning/conditioning and pat dry.

I have thinning hair, wanted to try something that stimulates hair growth. Been using it for about 3 weeks now and have not noticed regrowth but hair texture is much improved, with a healthy shine, adds volume, less fallout and breakage too so it's a thumbs up.

Made My Hair Grow Faster- But Not Thicker
-10.17.12
Quick Take: easy to use, quick results
I went through a random period where my hair was inexplicably falling out like crazy. I read the reviews and tried this stuff out. It didn't do anything to slow the hair loss, but the hair that I had left grew like a weed. Luckily, my hair went back to normal. I've been thinking about getting some more to help it grow back after cutting it super short on a whim.

Quick Take: easy to use, quick results
Like many other reviewers, i have had hair loss due to a number of factors and have tried other products. Since I have a light color bathroom floor and tub I am used to seeing hair everywhere! I have completed one box of the product plus taking the nutritional supplement. I can definitely see improvement, only a small amount of hair on the bathroom floor and my fine hair seems to have more body.

Difference in one day!
-10.03.12
For 2 years I've been suffering from major hair loss. Doctors couldn't find the underlying problem other than thinking it was just premature hereditary hair loss. Rogaine was no help and I've tried expensive shampoos. I was feeling hopeless, but then discovered Phyto hair care line. I am using the Phyto Revitalizing Serum along with the Hair and Scalp Elixir. I used to lose over 100 strands a day. After my first use of Phyto I only lost 4 strands in one day!!! My scalp feels clean and healthy. I think this is the solution to my problem!

Give it a try!
-10.02.12
Quick Take: easy to use
If you're experiencing hair loss like I was, you are willing to try anything. Four months ago, I had an experience of benigm alopecia areata (bald spot on top of my head) paired with general hair thinning everywhere. Apparently, triggered by stress. I was freaking out. I bought this product despite being very sceptical. I'm on my second box and I can see little fly aways everywhere!!! For me, I truly believe it made a difference. And for those complaining about the packaging, it's really not a big deal. Hair loss will make you willing to try anything even opening a tiny glass bottle. For all of you out there experiencing hair loss, stay strong. Keep in mind that it is most likely temporary. It will grow back!! This may just be the little boost your scalp needs. It worked for me! I will finish by saying that I will never complain about a bad hair day ever again!
