Last Of The Mocha-hicans

‘GOOD news for German chancellor Gerhard Schroeder – he of the famously undyed hair.

Scientists have discovered that treating hair with caffeine products can stop men from going bald, not of course that that is a problem for Herr Schroeder.

Professor Peter Elsner, of Germany’s Jena University, claims the stimulant has the most effect on men whose hair roots were very sensitive to testosterone, one of the causes of hair loss.

‘One would have to drink between 60 and 80 cups of coffee a day for the necessary amount of caffeine to reach the roots,’ says Adolf Klenk of Kurt Wolff cosmetic research.’
