The SLS thing is a bit of a myth:

I don't know much about He Shou Wu but what I do know is that less than 15% of actual Chinese people use ancient Chinese medicine.

I am interested in this supplement, but a quick search on google scholar gave me a bit of a scare:

ABSTRACT
Abstract Herbal preparations are widely available and generally regarded by the public as harmless remedies for a variety of medical ailments. We report the first case in Australia of acute hepatitis associated with the Chinese herbal medicine Shou-Wu-Pian, prepared from Polygonum multiflorum. Cholestatic hepatitis developed in a Chinese woman taking this preparation for the greying of her hair, and liver biopsy was consistent with a toxic reaction. Clinical and biochemical resolution occurred following cessation of the drug.

I understand Shou-Wu-Pian is same as He shou wu. (?)

It helps hair because of the ketoconazole

SLS is probably a mild irritant for a reasonable number of people. It may even be a strong irritant for some, I'm not sure.

I'm a fan of Regenepure, but I do kinda wish they made it 2% keto as it's probably just 1% ._.

I agree Hoppi! Only problem is then it would be a prescription.
