How does Biotin & Collagen contribute to the same cause?
Some main ingredients which you can look for in a hair fall prevention shampoo are Biotin, Collagen and DHT Blocker. These ingredients target the root cause and help fight the hair fall and also promote healthy hair growth.
Biotin is a water soluble Vitamin which helps your body convert some types of nutrients into energy, but that’s not all - Biotin is majorly helpful in hair growth as it helps in improving the structure of Keratin. Keratin is the building block of your hair and it is very important, so your body should have sufficient Keratin to avoid hair fall.
On the other hand, Collagen helps in repairing the damaged hair and cover hair loss by promoting hair growth along with retaining the natural lustre and moisture.

Role played by DHT Blockers
Another ingredient which helps in hair loss prevention shampoo is DHT Blocker. DHT stands for Dihydrotestosterone which is a hormone responsible for various types of hair loss.
What a DHT blocker shampoo does is block this particular hormone (5 alpha reductase AKA 5AR) which causes hair loss and this has treated many kinds of hair loss problems including alopecia. DHT blocker also helps in restoring natural levels of the hormone which will help in hair regrowth. DHT blocking is said to be the most effective form of hair loss treatment. High levels of DHT can shrink your hair follicles which are a very crucial part of your hair growth cycle. So, in short DHT blocking is essential and effective in preventing hair loss.
