Can these skin care products be safe and beneficial to the scalp?   Tom Hagerty (Admin) Posted on Wednesday, May 01, 2002 - 09:51 am:    Anonymous: Hydrocortisone is a corticosteroid. Sometimes, if corticosteroids are injected, a patient can experience skin atrophy or thinning skin. But you're using a cream. This should give you no side effects. Vaseline and Aloe Vera are completely safe.   Anonymous Posted on Thursday, May 01, 2003 - 02:26 pm:    Hello everyone, Does anyone know if styling-products (like gel, wax or mousse) are bad for your hair? I use a gel without alcohol (I asumed that was a good choise) but I always think that it's better not to use styling-products at all. That's the problem though; gel does make my hair look thicker, and it helps me camouflage the thinner spots. I like to know if there are special products that are more friendly for your hair than others?
