A Presidential Hairline?

Article by HairlossTalk.com

Since the first televised presidential debate between Kennedy and Nixon in 1960, polls have shown us that appearance counts and now, in the age of satellite television, live Internet Webcasts and digital technology, appearance counts more than ever. A recent survey, conducted by Harris Interactive and sponsored by Rogaine, also shows appearance to be a factor when determining one's perception of professional success...According to results from the Harris Interactive Signals of Success survey, more than half of the adults surveyed felt that physical appearance, such as hair, weight, and eye color is very important in determining one's perception of professional and personal success.

"The days are long gone when it was considered strange for a man to be concerned about his appearance," said Brian Boye, Fashion Director, Daily News Record. "When it comes to hair loss, start early with treatments that will help stop the hair loss and in many cases, help it regrow."

About Hair Loss

Approximately 95 percent of men's hair loss is caused by a hereditary condition called Androgenetic Alopecia. The condition involves a miniaturization process, causing hair follicles to become smaller and reducing the time period in which hair can grow.

Since the hair is unable to complete the full growth cycle, the follicle produces thinner, shorter and more brittle hair.

Innovative products, such as Rogaine Extra Strength For Men (5% Minoxidil), are clinically proven to help stop hair loss and regrow new hair by revitalizing shrunken hair follicles, increasing their size. Rogaine Extra Strength For Men is the most advanced medically proven hair regrowth product available without a prescription, regrowing hair or stopping hair loss in four out of five men.
