THOMAS ENDS DANDRUFF GROWS HAIR Dandruff clogs the hair follicle; causes itchy scalp, falling hair, and keeps new hair from replacing hair which has dropped out. Because there are several types of dandruff, cure-all surface remedies usually do not correct the trouble. One of the most dangerous types of dandruff is caused by a germ deep in the scalp, known as “flask bacilli of Unna.” Thomas treatment attacks this destructive germ by modern therapeutic agents and restores the scalp to a normal healthy condition. When your scalp is once rid of baldness producing germs, hairfall stops, and new hair starts to grow again. Call at a Thomas office today for a free scalp examination and learn for yourself just how Thomas treatment can make you* scalp healthy.
