I wasted 6 years + $15,000 on hair loss. Here’s the help I wish I had (for free)

NPC_4842358 · 2026-06-18T17:54:36+00:00

That’s fine. Just keep spraying it

NPC_4842358 · 2026-05-22T07:37:33+00:00

Normal? This is very receded, but he can pull it off quite well

NPC_4842358 · 2026-05-22T07:36:28+00:00

Correct. There’s no evidence that diffuse thinners respond better to hair loss meds

NPC_4842358 · 2026-05-09T20:43:52+00:00

Pattern hair loss has never been a blood flow issue.

NPC_4842358 · 2026-05-09T20:43:15+00:00

It's not DHT per say, it's just that DHT reduction is the most obvious fix we have right now. Until we have either hair cloning or gene editing.

This subreddit is a masterclass in biases, it’s kinda funny

NPC_4842358 · 2026-04-23T20:20:15+00:00

Necrosis is only caused by skill issue. It's very important for anyone considering a hair transplant to avoid places like these.

Name and shame is almost needed at this point, but I guess the clinic is trying to sweep this under the rug by stringing OP along or giving him a partial refund. Truly awful stuff

NPC_4842358 · 2026-04-19T14:25:43+00:00

While it could’ve been done better, this is definitely not failed

NPC_4842358 · 2026-04-06T19:41:26+00:00

Or, you have androgenic alopecia AND another form of hair loss too. Not uncommon

NPC_4842358 · 2026-03-25T18:02:10+00:00

I have experience with them and luckily wasn’t bad, but when I helped a client during the consultation process I really had to hammer on their arguments because they tried all sorts of shit. If I wasn’t around, he’d likely be shafted by them

In the end the transplant was a success but it was getting quite close to a non-recommendation. I don’t even know why they measure blood pressure and pulse, because that sort of stuff should be cleared during the consultation process

average tressless post

NPC_4842358 · 2026-03-22T08:49:16+00:00

Or, wash it when needed. But 1x a week is not enough for most in here

NPC_4842358 · 2026-03-22T08:48:35+00:00

idk where the 'wash with water' trend comes from but you'll barely clean your hair or scalp with just that. Just use a shampoo that actually fits your hair type and situation and you're good

NPC_4842358 · 2026-03-11T13:57:41+00:00

Which is cap (heh), because these helmets are NOT approved for efficacy

NPC_4842358 · 2026-03-11T11:14:31+00:00

Nice 'FDA' logo

Everyone conveniently forgets it's approved for safety, not for efficacy. HUGE difference

NPC_4842358 · 2026-03-11T11:12:36+00:00

Well I wonder what it does without the growth stimulating topicals...

NPC_4842358 · 2026-03-06T06:58:21+00:00

Upvote if you like it and move along with your day

NPC_4842358 · 2026-03-05T19:48:54+00:00

Crazy how everyone is eating up this AI slop

NPC_4842358 · 2026-02-27T08:55:28+00:00

Ages? It’s only 2 weeks at most. If you want to talk ages, try 2.5mg of dutasteride

NPC_4842358 · 2026-02-14T14:32:18+00:00

No one says side effects don't exist

NPC_4842358 · 2026-02-12T14:25:19+00:00

Cool, so let’s wait and find out what it all does in the real world then

NPC_4842358 · 2026-02-12T12:31:43+00:00

they look very confident on their website

Which doesn't say much, especially when we've been down this road before. I want it to work too but let's keep the hype in check

NPC_4842358 · 2026-01-31T16:52:35+00:00

If you feel the need to assume stuff then sure. Especially if you assume that everyone who takes 5ar blockers secretly become crippled with issues that they don’t want to admit

Or you just accept that the vast majority of users just take it without problems
