Respected brother/sister

In the Name of Allah, the Inspirer of Truth.
Assalamu Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh

Jazak-Allah for your inquiry.

If it is for external use, then I would regard it as permissible for use. However, if it is taken via internal ingestion, please find a Halaal alternative as hair lossthinning is part of the ageing process, and not classed as a necessity.
