i mean do you think that most men just don't know that there are treatments out there are do you think the vast majority don't care or is that they think that the treatments won't work?

Well I think if there was a 100% cure, everyone would use it. Quite frankly the success rate isn't very good with the current meds so I can't blame people for not believing in them. I have wasted shitloads of money (I'm a poor student for fucks sake) in treatments during the past year and they've done f*** all. I'm just as bald as my bro who hasn't used anything. He went to Spain with friends last winter and all and I couldn't go because I didn't have the money.

I think above 90% of young people with hairloss would definitely go for treatments. Unfortunately most of them might end up wasting their money on crap products advertised on tv or other over-the-counter stuff. Another majority of these people due to their lack of knowledge or lack of patience might stop treatments within a couple of months when they do not see any positive results.

The scenario i mentioned above is from personal experience and it lasted for about 3 years since my hairloss started. Its only when i got information from this site did i start seeing positive results from proven treatments.

Probably a very small amount, mostly guys in their 20's I would imagine. Not many people are even aware of hairloss products.

i think everyone bothers about losing hair,it confuses me that so few people know about DHT inhibotors because i know when i first started losing hair ,i wanted to know exactly why my body was doing this and how to stop it,i mean all it takes is a few clicks on your mouth and you should no how to have the best chance of keepiong your hair,fair enough
if you don't have access to the internet ,youwould not know how to attept to save your hair

when I noticed I was losing mine about 2 or 3 years ago, I assumed there was nothing I could do about it so didn't bother looking. I wasn't really bothered about balding, actually. people change.

I think alot of people wouldnt spend the money on it as we know there are so many scams out there, and still no fullproof cure. I think that most married guys or those over 35 just dont care as much. I bet the average person buying treatments is single and under 30.

I have looked for a long time on the net for a site like this. It seems that there are tons of sites that seem unbiased but are just linked to a buy this product page. I guess what I am saying is that it is like trying to find a product that will make your penis grow....most men would buy it if it really worked...however ther are so many scams out there most people fear there are nothing but scams out there....It is just nice to know that there is a site like this where thousands of people are commenting on real life results. I just wish I found this site when I had more hair. Im 36 and on my second marriage....If this one doesnt work...sure as hell will be tougher to find a hottie with a big horseshoe head

The same sh*t happened to me, when I found out I had hairloss I thought I couldn't do anything about it until I found this site and started reading. Then the next phase after getting access to the information is actually doing it. You hear so much crap about finasteride crapping your erections, minoxidil making you a slave yadda yadda that at some point you have to just not give a sh*t and just do the damn products. A lot of men actually would never treat their hairloss because of this.

And like it was stated before, a lot of people don't have the knowledge and when they actually get on the right products they honestly don't even give them a chance as they often quit them. Consistency and proven products is the key here, and I got to thank all the guys who write here because if it wasn't for them I would be still losing tons of hair.

For me it was about 6 months of trying bullshit 'natural' treatments untill i found the real causes, so i guess alot of people are worried about scams.

recently most people i know that are balding bought that damned laser comb and think it is the answer. Its got lasers so its gotta work. Things such as this sound modern and high tech and makes sense in alot of peoples heads why there was never a cure in the past (because they never had lasers in the past)

Yeah its pretty simple. Baldness is all how you look at it. A lot of men simply dont care enough or if they do care they dont want to waste the money on it. The treatments are all very expensive, must be used for life, and lose effectiveness anyways. I wonder whats the point myself sometimes. None of the treatments really regrow any cosmetically significant amount of hair anyways. Most men look like they went from balding to balding yet they are spending a cell phone bill a month for what makes no difference in the eyes of others only to themselves. People notice a Norwood 4 but people dont notice you going from a Norwood 4 to a Norwood 3.5. Its not even worth the change. Now if something could truly prevent someone from losing hair and help for 20 years and do it safely thats one thing. A treatment bringing someone from a Norwood 4 to a Norwood 2 or Norwood 1 thats something men might pay for. Nothing like that exists for most men.

Well if people treated it earlier, like say a Norwood 3 could go to a Norwood 2.5 or 2. And Norwood 2.5 could go to a Norwood 1 or 1.5 if they used the right treatments

That is hard to happen.

The key here is starting early and willing to stick to treatments for MANY years.

Not many men are willing to do that so thats why its a low % of men actually treating it correctly.
