Hair Loss, Hereditary Pattern Baldness, or Androgenic Alopecia...

Try and hide it? Comb the side over the top? Get a short cut and hope the bald patches don’t show if you look like a convict?

You can make a joke of it, but the truth is there’s nothing funny about losing your hair. It’s cold in winter, your scalp burns in summer and when you look in the mirror you look and feel older, self conscious. You used to be youthful, attractive, confident, masculine.

Some people think that men shouldn’t care about their appearance, that wanting to look your best is vanity. Why should this be the case? It makes no sense. If you feel good about yourself, everyone around you will benefit. If you take care of yourself, you feel more confident, stronger and happier, ready to take on anything.

You’re doing a great job. You work hard, you play hard, you take care of your family. But so often you come last in your list of obligations and responsibilities. It’s time you concentrated on how you feel, just for once.

We know you haven’t the time to spend listening to slick sales pitches from the salesman in the drugstores. And we know that any time you do have to spend on yourself needs to be time well spent. Give it a try. You have nothing to lose and your hair to gain.

Don’t just restore your hair, restore your self-esteem.

Because you owe it to yourself to be the man you used to be.

Baldness (Androgenic alopecia), is the most common form of hair loss and follows a typical male pattern of a receding hair line at the front and temples, and thinning hair on the top of the head often leaving a fringe of hair around the sides and back. It can begin at any time in a man’s life, as early as the teens or as late as old age. It is caused by three factors occurring together:

1. heredity – baldness runs in families.
2. male hormones
3. getting older


Many women develop what is known as ‘female pattern baldness’ where thinning of the hair occurs uniformly across the scalp, or commonly on the crown.
