So how exactly does placenta hair treatment work? Dr. Robert Dorin, a New York City-based hair specialist and restoration expert, says that the treatment theoretically acts as emollient, which keeps in moisture and has a softening effect on the hair. “Because hair is made up of proteins, the idea is that the use of a protein reconstructioner like placenta will return protein to the hair and repair the hair follicles. This coating also works to smooth the hair cuticle making it appear shiny,” he says.
Keep in mind that results of popular leave-in placenta hair products don’t occur immediately. “Any topically applied product used to stimulate hair growth would need to be applied directly to the scalp once or twice daily for at least six months, in order to see any benefit,” says Dr. Singh. ...
In addition to the medicinal uses, another way that we can bring back the tradition of honor and gratitude toward birth and the role of the placenta is to make artistically beautiful prints with it. I make your prints before I wash and prepare the placenta. They are printed with the natural placenta blood on acid-free artists paper. Some families frame them and display their prints as art or others choose to save them as personal keepsakes.

In the wild If a mother is taken while giving birth, predators consume the placenta last.

Ah, so it's like a digestíf?
This seems like one of those things that's done by those people who will do ANYTHING they become convinced is "natural."
Glad to see you could join us, thank for adding to the sickness

Read through the whole thread...there are some sick members here.
Thanks for posting the placenta pic not once but like 10 times!
And, who doesn't like a good mucus conversation ?
Anyhow, there are some placenta conditioning packs you can get for your hair. And placenta facial masks.

Here's another use for it:
Placenta prints.

Holy crap, I just had a gross thought.
"Nobody's managed to bottle either of these two in tequila in place of the worm, have they?"
Google says no, not yet. But plenty of women use tequila to wash down the placenta. You know, if you need booze to stomach the stuff, it's your instincts saying to keep it out of your mouth in the first place!

Most disgusting thread!
Thanks, I'm currently unable to eat, I can use the imagery memories as inspiration to keep going far longer than I need to.
