I'm just literally gob-smacked at how idiotic the general public are... quite funny this, especially for those that have been in the hair loss game for a while.

Newbies, take note... I am about to share with you the mother of all snake oils.

http://www.belgraviacentre.com/blog/hairgen-range-for-hair-thinning-has-6000-waiting-list-on-boots-com/

That's right, you read it correctly, the price is £70 (106.65 US Dollars).

We live in an insane world.

This is funny:

The treatment was originally launched in June and sold out in a few days. The active ingredient in the product is saw palmetto, a plant extract that some believe can block DHT when applied locally, although it is yet to be licensed or approved by the medical regulatory bodies in the UK or US (the MHRA and the FDA) to this effect.

FDA aint gonna do shit to approve a fruit that grows all over Florida.

The funniest part was when they mentioned that it contains SP LOL.

We're cured guys!!!!

Also, telling the general public there's a waiting list of 6,000... beautiful marketing (lying).

[greatjob!]

I'm starting to think I should just say f*ck it, join the party and make my own snake oil. I'm already bald, might as well get rich. At this point I don't even see a moral problem anymore, if you are dumb enough to think you can rub some bullsh*t on your head and solve a problem that has plagued mankind for thousands of years you deserve to lose your money.

£70 retail price....

The product doesnt justify such a high asking price... they're just lining their pockets - saw palmetto is cheap as anything to produce so these guys must be on one hell of a margin@£70 RRP.

It's like selling bottled apple juice for £70 a pop: "6,000 people on the waiting list" LOLOL!!

Yeah it does. It's a hair loss "treatment", no?

Also, it's not like there's actually anything to report on in terms of development of legit treatments, unless you consider a hundred threads speculating on the timeline of the same drug's development exceedingly relevant.

I dont see how this BS fits in the cutting edge treatments, but ok.

I can't believe a massive high street store would sell such a product.

Surely something that isn't proven to do what it says......won't make it onto the shelves.

Boots sell loads of crap in their high street stores for hair loss. Nourkrin, strange topicals based around saw palmetto, Aminexil... You name it. The sad part is, many people who get suckered by that rubbish then don't have any reason to believe that the real hair loss treatments aren't any better.

[garethbale]

Wow. This is beyond belief. £70 for a shampoo!!!

I just had a look on ebay and you can get a bottle for five quid...

Some desperate souls are gonna pay £70 for this unfortunately.

I might email the Belgravia Ctr with the ebay link and ask why they are charging £70 for something that's available for a fraction of the cost.
