Re: Another Chinese herbal shampoo

Jacob, do you know where you can get the Lamas shampoo for cheaper than their website. I think I got it before for about $12, but everywhere I look now, it seems to be out of stock. I just don't want to pay $22 a bottle.

Re: Best Herbal Hair Loss Treatment Spray ---Hair regain in 15 days!!!!

"you won't continue trying it if it doesn't work in the first 3 month.if you tried almost one year,then the pilatory must has worked on your hair loss." That's not true. Even with proven treatments like Finasteride and Minoxidil, it can take up to a year for some people to see results. The fact that...

Re: The Medical Breakthrough To Regrow Your Hair

It was just lasers. Not even a new design. Just lasers. Typical stuff. 2 treatments per week (at $75 per treatment). Some before and after pictures. Nothing that great. Nothing new, as expected. Hardly a "medical breakthrough".

The Medical Breakthrough To Regrow Your Hair

That was the teaser for tomorrow night's newscast in Dallas. I'm sure it's nothing. But I have it set to record. I'm sure we would know about anything first on the hair loss forums. Any guesses on to what it is? Probably something stupid.

Re: A&G Hair Complex from A&G Skin Solutions

Perga,

Don't let anybody tell you that you don't have hair loss. Yes, most of us would love to have what you have. But I can tell you are losing it. You know why? Because when I was in my early 20's, I knew I was losing it, but most other people thought I was crazy. And my hair looked almost identical to yours right now. I can see what you are worried about. You know your hair more than anybody. Back then, my hair looked fine when dry, but I could see it thinning when wet. I am now 45. And I continued to lose. My hair looks like %&$! now.

I am going to start lasering soon. Not sure about A&G yet. But I may take some before and after pictures. It will give you a good idea of where you are heading if you don't stop the loss (I tried, proscar, minox, etc. But it only slowed it. Didn't stop it). The pictures probably won't be up for awhile though.
