Orbit Naturals Nourishing Hair Serum | Strengthening Serum for Healthier-Looking Hair (30ml)

A lightweight leave-in serum for the scalp and hair, for men and women. The full ingredient list is printed on the pack.

Made at our own facility on Adiyala Road, Rawalpindi, where we have been formulating since 1998.

What a topical serum can do, and what it cannot

We would rather set expectations properly than sell you a bottle you feel let down by.

A leave-on serum conditions the hair shaft and keeps the scalp comfortable. Hair anchored in a clean, comfortable, flake-free scalp is in a better environment than hair anchored in an irritated one, and conditioned hair looks thicker and breaks less.

What it does not do is regrow hair from follicles that have stopped producing. Only two topical treatments have strong evidence for that, both are medicines rather than cosmetics, and both come from a pharmacy or a doctor. Any cosmetic serum promising regrowth is overpromising.

How to use it

• Apply to a clean, dry or towel-dried scalp.
• Part the hair and apply along the scalp rather than only on the lengths.
• Massage in with your fingertips for two to three minutes. The massage is not decorative; it is how it gets distributed.
• Leave on. Do not rinse.
• Daily, as part of a routine.

Why three months is the minimum

Hair grows roughly one centimetre a month, and each follicle cycles through growing, resting and shedding phases. Anything you change today shows up in hair that emerges months from now. Three months is the minimum sensible period before judging any routine, and six is better.

It is also why shedding after an illness, surgery, childbirth or a stressful period seems to come out of nowhere. The trigger was two to three months earlier.

The part most hair products ignore

When hair sheds more than usual, the cause is rarely topical. Low ferritin is one of the commonest findings in women with hair shedding and is easily tested. Thyroid function affects hair in both directions. Very low-calorie or restrictive diets show up in hair months later.

Our article on what biotin does and what it does not goes through the nutrients people forget, and zinc and copper covers another pair worth understanding.

When to see a doctor instead

• Sudden or patchy hair loss, or bald spots.
• Hair loss with tiredness, weight change, or changes in periods.
• An itchy, painful or scaling scalp that does not settle.
• Hair loss in a child.
