I've been losing a lot of hair lately, and my haircutter suggested that I try a hair spa treatment to help. Do you think it's a good idea? Will a hair spa actually help reduce my hair loss? I'm really concerned and would love your advice.

You can proceed with hair spa treatments as they can help promote hair health, reduce stress, and improve scalp conditions, but it's essential to consult a dermatologist to rule out underlying medical conditions causing hair loss.

I'm really worried because my face and neck are a lot darker than the rest of my body. I've also got these dark spots on my face, especially on both sides of my forehead, which are even darker. I recently started using a sunscreen with SPF 50, but it hasn't made any difference. I used to play outside in the sun a lot around 4 years ago, and I wonder if that's what's causing this. What can I do to fix this? I'm really looking for some advice on how to lighten these areas and get rid of the dark spots.

continue same treatment.

Is it alright to put on aloe vera gel before applying sunscreen? I'm worried if it might cause my skin to darken or have some other effect. Any advice on this?

Wearing aloe vera gel before applying sunscreen is generally okay, as aloe vera has soothing and moisturizing properties that can help calm the skin; however, some aloe vera products may contain aloin, a compound that can increase skin sensitivity to the sun, potentially leading to darkening or discoloration, so choose an aloin-free aloe vera gel and apply sunscreen with at least SPF 30 afterwards to ensure adequate protection.
