Balding Cures Scams or Not
If you're one of the millions of men and women who are balding,
you're probably paying an incredible amount of attention to the
many companies touting products that will end your problems.
Before you rush out to pay for the miracle cure, take a minute
to evaluate the products and the companies.
One of the most important things to remember is your mom's
advice - if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. If
you have eight hairs left on your entire head, a can of spray
paint isn't going to make those eight look like a full head of
hair. While there's some merit to the idea (mascara works
roughly on the same principal and women with thinner eyelashes
continue to use that product), use your common sense before you
decide that this is going to be the answer to your balding
problem.
Another point is to understand exactly what it is that you're
buying. If you pay close attention to some of the
advertisements, you still end the session knowing that the
company is touting a cure for balding but have no idea what that
cure is. If you hear an advertisement that catches your
interest, be sure you know some details about the product. If
you don't understand, ask. Any company that isn't willing to
answer your questions is probably in the midst of a scam that
won't work anyway. Also, don't settle for techno-babble as an
answer. Be sure you understand. Don't be afraid of sounding
stupid when searching for answers. It's going to be worse if you
pay $99.95 for this product that turns out to be tufts of hair
and a bottle of super glue.
Surgery for balding is a pretty dramatic step. If you're
thinking of taking that step, find a reputable company to
perform the procedure. The process has come a long way over the
past few years, but you don't want to pay for a transplant only
to end up with tiny rows of hair that look like a doll's head.
There's no doubt that balding can be detrimental to self-esteem.
Confidence can plummet with balding and finding a product that
helps reverse that is vital to some people. The important part
of this equation is to figure out why you want to address the
problem and the lengths to which you're willing to go. With some
careful evaluation of the products and procedures available,
you're sure to find something that works with your lifestyle.
But for some people, finding the self-confidence to simply go on
is the more viable solution to balding.
