Male hair loss

[xud]

Hi, my wife keeps tellng me to use this hair thickening shampoo which she has just bought. Are there any men out there who have tried such shampoos with any success.
Also, I believe there are other therapies available, such as laser treatment, implants.

I have heard horror stories about implants though.

My question basically is this:- Is there a remedy for male hair loss and at what cost?

Thanks in advance

Their is something that Cheryl Baker was advertising for a while. Off the top of my head I cannot remember what it is called, but I know it is bought in Holland and Barrets and Boots. Boots had a deal on it for a while, basically three months treatment for the price of two. But, it does work out to something like �100 a month. I know someone who is using it who has noticed a considerable hair growth, but, they are going to continue to use it for three months, to see if its worth continuing with. My friend is my sister, and as I suffer with hair loss was considering it before I found out how much it cost. But I am happy with short hair, cheaper than going to the hairdresser all the time!! Can find out what it is called at a later date if you like, but you will find it in these shops over the counter. But I was once told by a lady 'that men with no or little hair is a sign of masculinity' stick with that excuse and be happy! Hope it helps!

BBC Horizon did a programme recently about whether beauty treatments actually work. There was a section on genetic hair loss.

My husband has gotten the same problem...
I found this site with loads of information and different types of treatment.
It is an online clinic so you can do a free consultation and then they prescribe the medicine to you (only if you are eligible!)
My husband has taken propecia now for almost a year and I can definitely see the difference! http://www.theonlineclinic.co.uk/hair-loss.asp
Hope it works for you too! All the best!
