A BeautyStat.com Review: Viviscal Hair Filler

What I had received in the mail...

For months now I have seen various commercials about hair fillers on television.  I was ecstatic to have received an email about an opportunity to try such a product, as I have suffered from a nervous disorder for the past twenty years (it was triggered due to some trauma I endured at times in my childhood). While I do not wish to delve too much into it; I will say that having thinned hair as an end result has proved to be an embarrassment, and quite a struggle all this time.
  I received this product in a few days from shipment in a cardboard box. The fillers were in a shaker like jar enclosed with a pamphlet in a carton.  The pamphlet discussed supplements that Viviscal also sells. The idea is that the consumer, while using the supplements to promote hair growth, also uses the hair fillers as a temporary fix until the new growth sets in.

  How does it work?

  The pamphlet states, "Each fiber has an electrostatic coating which binds it to the hair shaft, immediately building hair density appearance and coverage."

  What are the benefits?

  I noticed that the patches of missing hair was obscured by the fibers, giving the illusion that I had a fuller head of hair.

  How do you use it?

  I gently tapped the open jar above the areas I wanted to conceal.  Thereafter, I set with a little bit of hairspray.  To remove it, I shampooed as usual.  It came out very easily with the shampoo, but during windy weather it clung to my hair very well.

  Did you see results and how quickly?

  Yes, immediately! I was able to use it on some areas that where so difficult to hid, and after doing so I flipped what strands I had over as I would normally style it.  It was incredible to see such a difference. I was even able to put up my hair in a ponytail without worrying about my scalp showing through.

  Did it stain, smear, or leave behind residue?

  I tried to use it on my hair line at first. I didn't like the fuzzy appearance it seem to give. However, when I decided to remove it from that area, using a moist wipe, I saw no staining, smearing, or residue.  And when I applied it, if any excess fell on my face, it was a very easy cleanup.

  I want to make note, that I have used this product periodically for almost a week, and these are my thoughts for the moment.  In a month I will be able to give a more definite opinion via this blog, and plan on doing a more extensive review. If I work the nerve, I might include a few before and after photos of some areas that are not so bad as others I have been trying to cover up. But, for now, I am enjoying this product.
