First of all, you need to see a dermatologist to determine if you
are going bald from a disease, disorder, or what.

Hair is dead and hair growth occurs inside the skin in the hair
follicle. Rogaine can help people that have problems with their
follicles.

Damaging your hair from dyes/bleach etc. may cause your hair to
fall out but that won't prevent new hair from growing.

Personally, I think henna is great. It has thickened up my hair and
lends it a beautiful shine. But, if you have a skin disorder or
alopecia (balding) then Please, please, plase go see a dermatologist
to find out what is going on before adding henna or rogaine or
anything else to your head. Then, once the doctor determines the
problem and the treatment of that then henna would probably be ok to
use but I would ask him or her about henna and any reactions to the
treatment.

If you are losing hair from chemical damage and abuse then read up
on henna from the home page becuase you may not want to mix it with
already color treated hair.

Good luck and see a dermatologist,

Jade
