in my early days of treatment when i was desperate for the best results and quite uneducated, I saw an add for it, researched it on their site, researches some consumer reports and then bought one. I could afford it and i figured that I would do anything to help my hair. The book that came with it listed a discussion forum on the net run by their company, so I went there expecting to hear masses of positive reviews. WOW !!!!! was i turned off...that site was enough to make me want to ask for a refund right away. I htink I spent the entire day on that site appalled at what I heard and saw. The moderators were like abunch of nazi's pushing any thread that was possitive and adding to it. There were tons of negative threads and they were always removed because they "werent factual" I waited a full year until i figured..i paid for it..i might as well damn use it. It's been 2 months and nothing good or bad to report...I'll keep you posted. Check out the forum for yourself..i dont have the addy now...but i can get it.
