The HairlossTalk.com Mission Statement What we commit to you, what we commit to ourselves, and what makes us unique from all other sites of our type.

HairlossTalk was founded because of a growing need for good information on hair loss both on the web, and off. We are in contact with thousands of people worldwide who have first hand experience that there are effective treatments available, and we feel it is important that this news is spread.

Our commitment to be Biased

HairlossTalk is privately owned. Nobody controls the decisions made on our site except for the owner, a fellow hair loss sufferer. This means that no corporate entity has any control over the content on HairlossTalk, and we are proud of our no bias, no BS status. HLT has *no* vested interest in any one hair loss product. The products we choose to promote have been hand picked by us because of their scientific efficacy. We have and will continue to reject offers from the hundreds of snake oil companies out there wishing to make us rich at your expense.

The information you get here will be real, accurate, and unbiased. Some people think that if we express an opinion on something, we are doing so because money controlls our tongues, or because we happen to sell that particular product. They're only half right. In once sense we're unbiased. In another sense, we're extremely biased. We're biased in favor of proven or scientifically based treatments. We're biased in favor of the researchers, surgeons, and scientists who have legitimate practices who are recognized by their peers, and have established ethical reputations. When we say we are not biased, this doesn't mean we don't actively express our opinion on EVERYTHING. Disagree with us on something? Great! Show us where we're wrong, and you may change our position. However, take note, we became the site we are today by having an opinion, and speaking it loudly.

Our Commitment to actively Censor

We do not censor anything based upon financial motivation. We do not censor anything based upon commercial interest. We actively censor that which we feel will harm our users, that which we deem to not be in their best interest, or that which seeks to actively slander our site or ruin our sense of community.

A good portion of our content is created by our members who are using the products themselves, and who have both good and bad things to say about them. In all of our product reviews we try to give you both viewpoints. It's up to you to educate yourself and make your own decisions. We will actively censor promotion of any product we know to be fraudulent. We will actively promote any product we know to be legitimate. Treatments that have FDA approval, have shown success under the scrutiny of scientifically conducted studies, have ingredients which have clinical efficacy, or have shown reasonable success among our verifiable users will get our support from us. Proof is proof.

Our Commitment to make Money

All items in our Online Product Center are provided as a service to you, to get the only legitimate treatments which work, providing product fulfillment in the safe haven of a community of users you can trust. We feel it is an added service to provide this fulfillment, however this in no way makes us "Just another site trying to sell you something". Money made from the store goes directly into enhancing and supporting this site to make it bigger, better, and to reach and help more people. Proof of how our revenue is spent can be seen all over this new and enhanced site. You are our number one focus, and we make no apologies for that.

We have chosen to take part in some unique Affiliate Programs with services that bring you streaming video content and additional resources which we cannot provide ourselves.

We will not allow advertising on our site for organizations which offer products we feel are not helpful to our customers. We regularly reject all financial offers from companies who provide lackluster services or snake oils, as deemed by us.

We have, and will continue to refuse to promote products that:

• Have not proven efficacy in scientifically conducted studies
• Contain ingredients that have no scientific backing for effectiveness with hair loss, or
• Have no verifiable consumer feedback on their efficacy.

Regarding hair loss alternatives such as Surgical Transplant options and Hair Systems, HairlossTalk is even more careful. Any organization you see promoted on our site for either of these purposes has had to earn a sterling record of good reports via verified feedback we've obtained from actual patients of theirs, and in their dealings with us.

Our Commitment to not give a Crap

Our goal is to be a source of information that you can trust, not a site that jumps on every new trend. In the midst of so many people trying to rip people off in this scene, its difficult to know what to believe. We do not care what new tonic has been announced, or new "technique" is rumored to exist. We will only actively promote that which is proven or backed by sufficient evidence. We may report about it in our newsletter, to keep you informed, but we will not distract our users from the proven treatment methods, in favor of some new "trend" or mystery doctor. Our goal is to stick to the straight and narrow. Our goal is to not care what "everyone's talking about", but to stand solid on what we know to be true. Our goal is to err on the side of conservatism until we have all the facts, rather than present products and services to you which may not even be legitimate. Sending our users into a screaming frenzy only to dash their hopes to the ground is not our style. Our goal is to provide you with photos and contact information of real people getting real results on the proven treatments. Clinical studies on new treatments, and trustworthy, legitimate news that you can rely on as fact.

Most importantly, our goal is to help you find success in maintaining and regrowing your hair. If we didn't believe it was possible, this site wouldn't exist.

Good Luck, and happy growing.
