You Tell People What Products Won’t Work — So What Does?

I realize there are a lot of products claiming to “regrow” and “promote” hair growth. I also understand people that notice the loss and want to “nip” it in the but before it gets worse. You offer a lot of “No” that won’t work, “Buyer bewares”. People with hair loss, that don’t want to just accept it, need something that works. Even if it only helps some, it feels good to be trying and not giving up. I do not want to go bald. I have a feeling from watching my dad and brother go bald that it has something to do with skin build-up and regeneration blocking the follicles. Whether from hormones like DHT or Skin composition or both.

What do you think about Dr. Lewenberg’s formula? With both my dad and brother having the oiliest heads and dandruff on and off. How would the proven Minoxidil help if it can’t even get through the oil and build-up to improve the circulation?

There’s got to be something that helps, even if only a little. Like I said, some is better than none.

“Hope springs eternal,” says poet Alexander Pope. That is my view of the various hair loss remedies. There’s no cure for hair loss, and that’s what it sounds like you’re asking for. Medication isn’t guaranteed to work the same for everyone that takes it. As I’ve said over and over, the only medications I recommend are those that are FDA approved for treating hair loss — finasteride (Propecia) and minoxidil (Rogaine).

I’ve written about Dr. Lewenberg’s Formula before. Your focus on getting minoxidil through the scalp oil is not a problem if you wash your hair regularly. I don’t know where you got the idea that balding is caused by skin build-up, but that isn’t likely to be the case.
