How to Interpret Hair Loss Testimonials
In my ten plus years as investigating, using, and evaluating natural health products the number of hair loss testimonials has grown exponentially.
They are an important part of both the decisions made by the company offering the product as well as having a great deal of influence over consumers trying to decide which product might be the best for them.
Up until a few years ago hair loss testimonials, as well as customer reviews, were starting to get out of control.
It was just a matter of time until someone claimed that their favorite hair regrowth product grew new hair on a cantaloupe turning it into a furry, fuzzy, bowling ball which could be used both for bowling and a hair piece.
One of the dirty little secrets of these personal endorsements was that up until recently certain companies offered free products just for writing a favorable review.
As far as I know this practice has been shut down by the Food and Drug Administration leading the current group of hair loss testimonials to be more reflective of the honest and passionate impressions of those who actually benefited from the reviewed products.
Your best defense against inaccurate hair loss testimonials is knowledge One fact that should be taken in account when interpreting testimonials for balding and thinning hair products is the unpredictability of the product itself.
What might work great for a 50 years old male may have no effects whatsoever on his 40 something co worker.
Probably more important than accepting unpredictability is gaining an understanding as to what the primary cause of balding and thinning is.
The condition itself is known as androgenetic alopecia also known as male and female pattern baldness.
It is an androgen hormone driven condition with a genetic backdrop that basically strangles the hair at the follicle level causing it to shrivel up, fall out, and never regrow.
This condition is driven by the androgen hormone dihydrotestosterone or DHT which binds to the follicles over time.
The accepted wisdom to restore growth is, eliminate or moderate DHT thus creating an environment where new growth can occur.
Another product which receives a great number of reviews is minoxidil (Rogaine, Loniten).
There is no arguing that minoxidil works but research tells us that both the amount of new regrowth and its quality will vary greatly.
According to the AMA no one knows for sure exactly why minoxidil stimulates hair growth thus making a determination as to why it is unpredictable impossible.
While we have just scratched the surface hopefully this information about hair loss testimonials and balding has helped you learn more about loss of hair.
Who knows maybe someday I will be reading one of your testimonials touting the benefits of a safe and effective hair regrowth product.
