Has anyone used this product before? I heard an ad for it on the radio the other night and they were making some pretty bold claims about what it can do in three months. It must work the same way as propecia does because it was talkin about DHT inhibition. Anybody know anything about this product?

Pretty sure what this is is Hair Genesis just under a different name. I don't know why they switched the name but they did. Basically junk, look up any comments on this board about hair genesis and you will see that it is bogus.

It has Saw Palmetto.

Any product with Saw Palmetto will claim to provide DHT inhibition, and yet wont do a damned thing for your hair. Saw Palmetto has not been shown to be the slightest bit effective in stopping hairloss.

Stay away from them!!!

I called their number two months ago, hoping to possibly find a solution but prepared to be dealing with scam artists. The latter bore out. The salesman I spoke with sounded like a guy in a mobster movie (OK, that's not fair, but it's fitting), and the first thing he asked me was where I had seen the ad and what offer number was printed. My cynicism immediately doubled.

I grilled him insistently, not willing to be suckered. "How many customers have you actually *had*?" I asked. Chuckling in a somewhat offended manner, he replied "Thousands!" I rolled my eyes but humored him, asking him more questions about how the product works. Just like HairLossTalk.com said, the guy mixed fact (DHT inhibition) with myth (poor circulation, clogged follicles, etc.). The final straw was when he tried to talk me into buying a three-month supply right then, even though I kept insisting I had no money. His manner had been friendly the whole time, and continued to be until I finally said something like "Sorry, I didn't intend to purchase your product at this point. I just wanted to ask some questions."
He immediately turned sour. "Then why did you call?" he asked pettily.
"I just wanted to get some imformation," I replied.
"Thank you," he growled coldly, and hung up.

Perhaps I shouldn't have misled him, even though I hadn't really meant to, but a potential customer has MORE than every right to ask questions, and his manner convinced me once and for all that human beings are greedy, unfeeling brutes.. :roll: Well, at least the ones who prey on people's insecurities and callously profit from their shattered emotions.

Basically, everything HairLossTalk.com and others around here have ever said about snake oil salesmen was proven correct in my little encounter.
