    Hairness
    The point of the post is that no one should act simply on a personal recommendation or someone's opinion.

    Whether you choose to accept the risk of side effects with ANY hair loss solution is not the only factor in determining your success.

    I'd ask these questions first before buying any product...

    1) What type of hair loss do I have? Just because "Uncle Phil" is bald doesn't mean your hair loss is hereditary.

    2) Can you follow a hair loss product regimen? Meaning, if you need to use it twice a day faithfully for 12 weeks or even 6 months can you stay with it? Or, will you become impatient and disappointed and possibly quit before you've given that product a fair shot and used it as directed? Then you end up being the guy writing the post saying the product doesn't work.

    3) Are you relying solely on what you get from a blog or forum where someone tells you the product works or doesn't... or do you dig into it yourself?

    4) How long has the company been in business? And, do they belong to the Better Business Bureau? This is a good indication from the consumer how this company is to work with...essential because you want someone who stands behind their product.

    5) Do they stand behind the product or have you read horror stories about people getting the run around from Customer Service?

    6) What's the value of their guarantee? This one is big for me. Let's say you get a money-back guarantee of 90 days...sounds good, right? If the product, like Rogaine takes anywhere from 6 months to a full year to even work, what's the guarantee worth then?

    I'm not promoting any product for hair loss, what I am saying is be smart about what you choose and be prepared to make your choice based on your own research and not somebody else's opinion.

    Hairness,

    Do you even know why this forum exists?

    Do you even know why the Women's Hair Loss Project exists?

    Have you even bothered to check out the American Hair Loss Association?

    You are blowing smoke and I don't get why you are here.
