While shopping in the Dollar Store a few years ago, I stumbled upon Dr. Wonder Products. It immediately struck me that this was a "knock off" of Dr. Miracle products (Even the packaging looked the same). Anyway, I decided to give it a try. Heck, I figured what could you lose when the product was only a little more than a dollar. Well, here are the pros and cons of my purchase.
First Impressions
Well, I've used Dr. Miracle products before - with success - so, if first impressions were correct, this would prove beneficial for the hair and scalp as well. It is amazing how so copy-cats rise up. Well, I guess it's not surprising.
As I opened the product, I noticed that it smelled like Dr. Miracle products.(That medicated menthol smell is unforgettable). Anyway, Dr. Wonder "Tingling Gro Hair and Scalp Treatment provides nourishment for the hair and scalp through the "Thermaceutical Complex" - similar to Dr. Miracle.
Ingredients
"Thermaceutical Complex" seems to be a special blend of plant oils, menthol and herbs that, when applied to the scalp, stimulates growth and strengthens and moisturizes the hair. When applied directly on the skin, the mixture causes warmth and tingling that stimulates circulation and blood flow. This is what promotes the hair growth.
Some of the ingredients are: Butyrospermum parkii, almond oil, safflower seed oil, castor seed oil, coconut oil, jojoba oil, clove oil and menthol. I noted that all of these ingredients are great for moisturizing, strengthening the hair follicle and promoting growth.
Now, the down side.
Chemicals
As many folks are aware, petrolatum and mineral oil are two no-nos for hair and scalp health as they block pores and cause buildup. (Blocked pores don't let any nourishment into them, thus preventing the hair from receiving the full benefit of the essential oils and herbs in the product)! The product also contains colorings: D&C yellow # 11, D&C green #6 and D&C red #17. Colorings have been associated with rashes, allergy and cancer.
Finally, as common with many health and beauty aids, the product contains propylparaben, which is an estrogen mimicking chemical that is suspected of contributing to breast cancer.
In summary
Hopefully, the information in this post will help you make an informed decision about the product. It does seem to promote hair growth, but, it also contains some pretty objectionable chemicals.
